This was Pre-VHS, Pre-Beta, Pre-Laserdisc, and was my first movie collecting addiction. We had over 150 video discs including the Star Wars trilogy, The Rocky Movies, and Close Encounters…to this day in Empire Strikes Back when Yoda looks down after Luke enters the Tree of the Dark side on Dagobah I get an immediate nerve cue to get up and flip the disc (each side could only contain 60 minutes of content).
“What is this thing?” You ask? Well it was the Capacitance Electronic Disc or CED; The first home movie viewing device post projecter developed by RCA in the late sixties, but not released to the public until 1980.
The format was commonly known as “videodisc”, leading to much confusion with the contemporary Laserdisc format. Laserdiscs were read optically with a laser beam, whereas CED videodiscs were read physically with a stylus, rather like a conventional gramophone record. The two systems were mutually incompatible.
The name “SelectaVision” was RCA’s brand name for the CED system. It was also used for some early RCA brand VCRs,and other experimental projects at RCA. Click ahead to see the How to video included with every Selectavision device! (more…)
| yes, Ghosthouse is a film about a dead little girl who has an evil clown doll that commands her to kill. That’s all well and good. But it’s the little things about Ghosthouse that really make you stand up and say “Wait, what?” | |

|
The star of Ghosthouse is a Ham Radio operator who, HEY GET BACK HERE!!! Anyways, this Ham Radio operator one day asks a fellow Ham Radio operator “Who is more popular in Denver, Kim Basinger or Kelly LeBrock?” This has nothing to do with the plot of Ghosthouse, but we just wanted to point out that this pressing question is raised in an actual movie at some point in time. |

Academy Award Noms,My Picks…And who will really win
Posted: 24th January 2012 by Jon in MOVIEs, NEWSTags: oscar picks
OK we all know that for the most part the Academy is a bunch of elderly yahoos who praise boring movies that just don’t stand the test of time. For example…when was the last time you thought “Hey ..lets go rent the English Patient!”? So I have a special list for you; My choice for who I WANT TO WIN and Who I think WILL ACTUALLY WIN. Lets face it, no matter who wins, this was a boring year for movies…even with Billy Crystal Hosting I predict that the Oscars will have one of the smallest audiences in years. Whether you watch or not here are my predictions:
Actor in a Leading Role
- Demián Bichir in “A Better Life”
- George Clooney in “The Descendants”
- Jean Dujardin in “The Artist”
- Gary Oldman in “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy”
- Brad Pitt in “Moneyball”
Actor in a Supporting Role
- Kenneth Branagh in “My Week with Marilyn”
- Jonah Hill in “Moneyball”
- Nick Nolte in “Warrior”
- Christopher Plummer in “Beginners”
- Max von Sydow in “Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close”
*purple = i want and who will win are the same choice

Note To Hollywood: Cast Women Accordingly
Posted: 11th January 2012 by Jon in MOVIEsTags: Columbiana, Gina Carano, Haywire
Whats the difference between these two women?
Both are beautiful and both are in recent movies about tough women…The difference is: only one is believable as an ass kicking assassin. Hollywood wouldn’t continually cast Elijah wood or Seth green as ass kickers, because lets face it…they’re small and whether they train or not, their still pretty laughable when cast in a role meant for Stallone or Schwarzenegger. So why do they insist on continually casting waify ex models like Saldana, Milla Kunis (book of Eli) and Milla Jovavich (Resident Evil) as Ass Kickers. I understand women are as capable as men in these roles however not ALL women are capable of ALL things as believable as a man is. The WRONG Women are being cast for these roles.
This past summer Zoe Zaldana starred in Columbiana, which (to me anyway) looked utterly laughable. Saldana is a good actress however her waify supermodel frame in no way leads me to believe that she is able to kick ass and take names, LET ALONE withstand the recoil from a .45 caliber gun.
Mark this moment folks! I am going to compliment my pick for most overrated director…Steven Soderbergh. (more…)
NEW Capain America Rifftrax
Posted: 10th January 2012 by Jon in MOVIEsTags: captain america, Rifftrax
..
Captain America: The First Avenger tells us the inspiring story of a skinny weakling who takes excessive quantities of a dangerous performance enhancing drug and becomes a national hero. Along the way he meets a girl, records propaganda films and defeats Sammy Sosa for the 1998 regular season Home Run title.
Standing in Captain America’s way is the evil Red Skull, who bears a striking resemblance to the father of the kid in “Son of The Mask.” Red Skull has developed some sort of laser, which he intends to use to achieve modest goals of establishing himself as a respected political figure in a small, manageable region of, we’re just kidding, he intends on taking over the entire world.
