Superbad (2-Disc Unrated Extended Edition)

Superbad (2-Disc Unrated Extended Edition)

With multiple storylines, a funky theme song and animated credits, Superbad would have made a good T.V. show. Imagine Freaks and Geeks with South Park crudeness.

Editorial: DVDs I’m Proud to Own Dammit!

Everyone owns a few DVDs that they might be embarrassed — nay, humiliated to admit to. With this in mind I have decided to take a stand and say “Yes, I own that copy of (insert name of cringe worthy DVD here) and I am damn proud of it.”

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End

Despite it’s long runtime, At World’s End was a good summer blockbuster. But that doesn’t always mean it will make a great DVD release.

Hot Rod
