Escape to the Movies: DVD Review

[kain6th]

You gotta do Paranormal Activity next. I haven't seen it yet, but it's got an 80% so far on Rotten Tomatoes. Pretty damn good for a horror flick. Even Roger Ebert seems to like it.

<3 wallace and gromit

 

[milomalo]

you should get a ps3, you know... its also a blu ray! =D ask to the escapist for one... as a research... tool... yes that should do it. also nice review!

 

[MowDownJoe]

I remember hearing about Anvil (the documentary) on Conan. Anvil (the band) performed after the interview on Anvil (the documentary), and they did look like they were enjoying themselves there.

 

[Dr.Doctor]

Good review, but I'm surprised it wasn't The Invention of Lying or Whip It or A Serious Man(maybe that's still only limited release).

However, I am confused as to your suggestion that Metallica is bad, excluding St.Anger.

 

[Symplify]

Just thinking abut Wallace and Gromit gives me painful nostalgia. Stop it.

I'm almost considering renting it just for old time's sake...

 

[sunpop]

Ah Wallace and gromit I need to dig up an old vhs player so I can watch them again and remember why whenever I see a penguin I keep an eye on it.

A penguin.... OR A CHICKEN!?

But it was just a rubber glove..or was it BLAST I have played right into the chickens hands!

Wallace and Gromit is great. They usually put it on boxing day, me being British and all.

 

[benbenthegamerman]

Loaf and Death is really cool, especially since Grommit finally gets a romance of his own.

I coulda sworn that he had a crush on someone in a close shave...
anyway, i love wallac and grommit, and ive been watching it since i was at least 5 years old.

.

Also i disagree witth bob that this is the darkest one ..... that penguin was scary as shit!

This. That penguin use to give me nightmares, which is why i only watched a close shave and a grand day out.

I think the dog in that was both male and, as it later turned out, a killer robot. Not a formula for romance, I don't think. If you're talking about the sheep, I still don't think so.

Oh, MovieBob, what happened? Wallace and Grommit? Really? There were no other DVDs to review, so you had to go with THAT? oh, dear...

 

[Chrissyluky]

I must rent this new Wallace and Gromit movie.

its not a movie its a short. unless of course your talking of curse of the were rabbit(which is great). i have to say even though its predictable(on purpose im sure) i cant help but love the series. it just has that special charm. Like the opening song in every one of them boy do i love that song.

 

[Captain Pancake]

I thought myself a hideous nerd for getting the aliens powerloader reference last christmas, gladly I'm not alone.

[Badger01]

aw hell yeah, Wallace and gromit are just the best

Something completely unrelated: Your show's intro and extro music are really good, I wish The Escapist would make new music in a similar style for Zero Punctuation (I really dislike its current intro music).

Have you listened to the full version of the ZP theme? They miss out a really good bit in the videos, and the full version hangs together really well.

OT: How well does W&G do in the USA? They had a movie deal, but it fell through as Curse of the Warerabbit didn't do to well in the States, or at least that's what I heard. Loads of great British comedies go over to America to try and make a fortune, but end up failing.

I mean Tommy Cooper bombed in the USA. How is that possible?!

Have you listened to the full version of the ZP theme?

No, where would I find it?

Go to a ZP video. to the bottom left of the screen is a button marked "music". Press that and it will take you to The Escapist Music page. From there you can download a selection of Music.

Cool, thanks!

Man, they should really switch!
They should use the part from 0:19 to 0:42 instead.
That high-pitched, melodic guitar-whine is awesome.
