Hello all! We are back this week with more cheap movies for you to check out. For all you Harry Potter fans out there, you can get box sets of six of the films for less that $10 a DVD. The majority of these films are perfect for “lazy day” movie watching. They are the kind of solid movies that can be watched multiple times over and still enjoyed. Of course tastes differ, but luckily we’ve got a wide variety for a cheap price!
Check out some of the movies on sale on Amazon… Continue Reading

Two ends of the spectrum for DVD releases this week. One of the mega-half-assed-hits of the year The Proposal prematurely comes to DVD and the most puzzling bomb of the year (only a “bomb” because it should have made more than Wolverine and Transformers combined, and yet it didn’t make half as much in total as either blockbuster did opening night), Drag Me To Hell, joins it in silver-disked glory.
Also, just a smattering of TV on DVD, a newly packaged Oliver Stone classic and the three worst DVD’s of the week!
Check it all out below…

Who would have thought that Sandra Bullock still had that much pull at the box office? Maybe it’s Ryan Reynolds charisma that wrangled up the viewers? Whatever the case, The Proposal beat out the competition this weekend and nearly made back it’s entire budget in three days. I hope this doesn’t mean any kind of a sequel (please no!).
Year One on the other hand wasn’t so lucky. Not only did The Proposal kick it’s ass, but The Hangover and Up gave it a little kick while it was down.
Check out the numbers below…

Check out all the news you missed over the weekend…
- Brakes have been placed on Steven Soderbergh’s new movie about the career of former baseball phenom Billy Beane, titled Moneyball and starring Brad Pitt. According to Variety, Columbia Pictures had a change of heart after company topper Amy Pascal read the final script and didn’t like the new direction the filmmaker was going in. Soderbergh planned to use real former baseball players, Scott Hatteberg and David Justice in the movie. (Variety)
- Start of your week with a laugh with 10 of the best clips of Sacha Baron Cohen as Bruno. (unrealitymag)
- Ms. Romantic Comedy is back! Sandra Bullock’s new movie, The Proposal opened at number one. It was Bullocks best opening ever with The Proposal grossing an estimated $34.1 million, proving the superstar still has what it takes to pull it off. The movie, produced by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, cost just $40 million to make. That’s a good investment if you ask me. (comingsoon)

Sandra Bullock is back to her old winning ways playing the pushy boss Margaret Tate in Anne Fletcher’s romantic comedy, The Proposal, with funny man Ryan Reynolds. Watch at your own risk. The other big movie opening this week is Harold Ramis’ Year One starring Jack Black and Michael Cera. I would hate to be the big comedy movie that opens right after The Hangover but hopefully these two films can pull in some audiences. And if the names Woody Allen and Larry David mean anything to you, you should go see Allen’s new one starring David called Whatever Works. There are also a number of smaller picks if you’re interested including Dead Snow, Under Our Skin, End of the Line, and Irene in Time, all of which you can find more details for below…

After a two-year hiatus, Sandra Bullock is back in romantic comedy The Proposal with Ryan Reynolds, Mary Steenburgen, Craig T. Nelson and best of all, forever Golden Girl in my heart, Betty White. Sadly, the tagline “Here Comes the Bribe” is the most clever thing to do with this movie. Aside from a handful of laugh out loud moments and the scenery, The Proposal is chock full of enough clichés that even the romantic comedy aficionado will be screaming “oh come on!”
Check out the good, the bad, and the plot below…
