Recap: 82nd Academy Awards (winners and comments)
The 82nd Academy Awards aired last night and I’m assuming most of you saw it, well unless you live in the NY area and have Cablevision, then you missed the first 20 minutes. I don’t know what side is right or wrong, maybe they are both greedy pricks? I particularly hate Cablevision and The Dolans so I think it’s their fault haha. How convenient they are the one always in the middle of these disputes with the studios. But enough with that, the big news last night was that The Hurt Locker got 6 Oscars. The Hurt Locker and director Kathryn Bigelow beat out Avatar and James Cameron for Best Picture and Best Director. I think that was a little bit surprising. I would have thought that the two movies would have been split down the middle. Honestly, I didn’t like Hurt Locker. It was a bit boring, long, and not Best Picture quality in my mind.

Matt’s Year in Review 2009
It’s that time of year for everyone to reflect on 2009, and look back at what was great and what wasn’t. Now, it’s my turn. You may see some similarities in lists but whatever, I tried to switch it up. I didn’t get in depth as much as Bryan or Tom’s List but this is what I thought stood out for me in this roller coaster of a year. Have a look at my list, after the jump!

J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek out on DVD & Blu-Ray November 17th
Never seen an episode of Star Trek, never seen a movie until J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek this summer. Now I can say I saw something Star Trek. It’s still one of the best movies of the year, along with Up and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. The movie has already been announced on DVD and Blu-Ray for November 17th. Star Trek had everything you could ask for in a movie: action, space battles, comedy, and of course, girls with huge green breasts. I’ll continue to watch the new Star Trek movies but I don’t really feel like seeing the old TV shows and movies though.

Spaceballs- Blu-Ray Edition
Starring: Rick Moranis, Mel Brooks, John Candy, Bill Pullman, Daphne Zuniga, Joan Rivers, Dick Van Patten, George Wyner
Directed By: Mel Brooks
Written By: Mel Brooks, Thomas Meehan, Ronny Graham
Studio: MGM/UA
The Mel Brooks sci fi classic, Spaceballs is on Blu-Ray for the first time, and like other editions, you want to have this one as well. Starring Bill Pullman, Rick Moranis and John Candy in this hysterical take on the Sci Fi genre with spoofs of Star Trek, Star Wars and Flash Gordon to name a few. Mel Brooks strikes gold with everything he works on and this film was no different. Yeah, some of the jokes are a little dated but this film still cracks me the hell up.
Galaxy Quest: Deluxe Edition
Starring: Tim Allen, Alan Rickman, Sigourney Weaver, Tony Shalhoub, Sam Rockwell, Daryl Mitchell, Enrico Colantoni, Justin Long
Written By: David Howard, Robert Gordon
Directed By: Dean Parisot
Studio: Dreamworks Home Entertainment
Buy On Amazon.com
When Galaxy Quest first came out, I didn’t think I was going to like it. But I gave the film a shot and ended up loving it! Galaxy Quest is the type of movie I watch whenever it’s on TV, and after 10 years, the movie still holds up as being a funny homage & spoof of Star Trek.
