Welcome to the first Reject Report of 2010 and the question this week is: will Avatar be stopped? Or maybe the question is “can it be stopped?” because I don’t know if it’s possible right now.

The folks at Magnet and HDNet have provided us with a little bit of parkour and martial arts to send off 2009.

This summer, a movie came out that made the divide between the critical voices in film and the ticket-buying masses more apparent than ever. Dr. Cole Abaius explores.

As the year winds down to a close and with award season is already underway, everyone is looking back on all the fine performances in cinema over 2009. But to truly recall all the great performances, we have to slag through some pretty awful ones.

To do this year’s bottom of the barrel justice, we put our resident lover of all things bad Kevin Carr to work, to find the absolute worst movies of 2009

Once upon a time, there were sword and sandals movies. Now, Channing Tatum is doing one — and its all about the abs and the clean-cut American look.

This is what you get when its been such a slow news week — two blue cat people and their nasty details.

Jeremy Renner is denying the rumors that he might play Hawkeye in an upcoming Marvel movie. Which is par for the course. That said, we hope he’s lying.

Often “Best of” lists include a bunch of the Oscar bait roles that we hear about at the end of every year but in 2009 we had some great performances in big movies which sadly isn’t always the case. With this list I tried to balance the two opposing worlds of critical credibility and popularity by considering which roles stuck out in my mind most. This is what I came up with…

Haven’t heard much talk about Moon this awards season? Mad that it’s not showing up on the lists of your favorite critics? Blame Sony Pictures Classics.

As you may have noticed, the blogosphere is all a-twitter with Best of the Decade lists. To our credit, we here at FSR have published two lists. Now it is time to look at what everyone else is saying…

Chances are that you might have gone out to a theater for a showing of Sherlock Holmes over the Christmas weekend. And if it left you yearning for more Holmes, we’ve got you covered.

This week, on a very special episode of Reject Radio, we decide never to do the show ever again in 2009.

Don’t you wish you’d created the most well-known spy in history? Then James McAvoy could play you in a movie!

Everyone else’s Best of the Decade List is trash. Inside, feast your eyes on the most definitive list of the damned decade.

This week, the Fox TV show Glee (a show I’ve never watched a minute of) hit your local retailers with the first part of its first season on DVD. And while I’m not too sure about the show, I am sure about the hilarity created by Jane Lynch.

It has been a long year for Blu-ray releases, and one that has seen some great gems and some major disappointments. But in the end, we have ten honorable mentions and ten best releases, all of which should be in your collection.

Seeing as it is the week after Christmas, you might expect a little more out of the Blu-ray release schedule. But as you will will see in This Week in Blu-ray, it is a light week for Blu-ray buyers.

Rob Hunter loves movies. He also loves working for the Ghostbusters to serve all your supernatural elimination needs. These two joys come together in the form of cash money payments that he receives every week and immediately uses to buy more DVDs. This week: Paranormal Activity, A Perfect Getaway, Glee, and more!

I wasn’t quite sure at first how to tackle a list of the Best DVDs of the Year… by definition, aren’t the best dvds the ones containing the best movies? (Yes, they are.) We don’t want this to be a list of the year’s best movies though, so instead we’re looking at the best collections, box sets, and special editions. Obviously the quality of the movies or shows within still matter, but they’re just one aspect of a truly great dvd release. The other two most important things in a quality dvd are the extras and the packaging. The best dvds of the year should ideally have all three traits… awesome feature, awesome extras, awesome packaging. (At the very least they should have two out of three.) So here we go. These are the Best DVDs of 2009! AK100 (Criterion) This may be considered cinematic heresy but I’ve only seen three of Akira Kurosawa’s many movies. Forgive me. Happily the fine folks at Criterion have long been supporters of the director, and this year they released the most comprehensive dvd set ever seen for any director. AK100 celebrates what would have been Kurosawa’s 100th birthday and includes 25 of his movies from a career that lasted half a century. It includes the ones I’ve seen (Seven Samurai, Rashomon, and Yojimbo) and several others including a few that have never even had an official dvd release. The films each come in their own case, and the set also comes with a [Due to Content Scraping and Theft, we have been forced to try abbreviated feeds.
