Willow is one of my favorite movies from the ‘80s. It’s got action, humor, and a little bit of romance. Willow is celebrating it’s 25th anniversary and it’s finally available on Blu-Ray! Man, do I feel old!

Saw Doctors @ Irving Plaza, NYC - March 15

Saw Doctors @ Irving Plaza, NYC


Date: March 15th 2013
Opening Band: The Latchikos
Band Link: sawdoctors.com

It’s that time of the year when The Saw Doctors come to the United States and rock out! They stopped at their usual spot at Irving Plaza and the show was sold out! That’s not surprising since they sell out that place in August when they play. But since it’s St Patrick’s Day weekend, everybody was out having a great time, watching the band from Tuam.

Wreck-It-Ralph is a fun animated movie that brings me back to playing games at the arcade. While Sarah Silverman’s voice/character is annoying, there’s a lot to love about this movie!

Masked Intruder @ Santos Party House, NYC (44)

The Queers @ Santos Party House, NYC


Date: March 2nd, 2013
Opening Bands: Teenage Bottlerocket, Masked Intruder

1…2…3…4! The Queers, Teenage Bottlerocket and Masked Intruder on the same bill? What an awesome punk rock lineup! Once I knew these guys were in town, I knew I wanted to check it out. I’m glad I did because it was a classic punk show with short songs, drinks flying all over the place, and stage diving. I was just glad to be sitting away from all that.

I’ll be back…on Blu-Ray again. The classic James Cameron movie, The Terminator, gets the remastered treatment on Blu-Ray! While I don’t like The Terminator as much as Terminator 2, this is still worth owning if you don’t own this on Blu-Ray already.

The Master (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy)


Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Laura Dern
Written By: Paul Thomas Anderson
Directed By: Paul Thomas Anderson
Studio: Starz / Anchor Bay
Buy On Amazon.com

The movie everyone thought was about “Scientology” is out on Blu-Ray and DVD and I really don’t know what I just watched. The acting, the direction and the music are really good but where I’m a bit lost is with the story and editing.

Various Artists – “Silver Linings Playbook”


Record Label: Sony Masterworks
Genre: Soundtrack
Buy on Amazon.com

Garden State is to The Shins as Silver Linings Playbook is to the Lumineers. Funny thing is, the band is nowhere to be seen on this soundtrack. The movie has been overplaying The Lumineers’ “Ho Hey” song to death, yet they don’t even have it on the soundtrack. I really don’t get the album selections of these soundtracks sometimes. Not like it really matters to me to be honest, I’m already sick of hearing it.
