Indy Comes Back to DVD Today
There’s no debating what the biggest DVD in the genre is today: the release of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The LA Times reports today on the DVD release and the still mixed reaction from fans on the fourth film.
The debate won’t end anytime soon as there are still rumors that George Lucas is kicking around ideas for a fifth film in the franchise. But anyway, you would expect a heap of extras on a DVD for a blockbuster this big. And they include multiple interviews and a whopping 12-part “Making Of” Feature. Cate Blanchett even talks about how she picked out her villainous hair style.
For old school sci-fi fans, the complete series of Ultraman is on DVD. Yes it’s campy, yes it’s Japanese, what more do you need to know? Ultraman would go on to inspire all sorts of shows, both animated and live action. Modern shows including The Simpsons and Yu-Gi-Oh have parodied Ultraman and his exaggerated fighting style and poses.

This is NOT going to be the biggest DVD release of the year…That honor is reserved for “TDK” release, and we all know it–That’s #1…#2–This was the worst Indy film, due in major part to the last 20-30min & minor part to the fridge scene, in my opinion…Which places it below “Temple of Doom” in the Indy installments…Thus, it will not be part of our collection.
–Godspeed–

Yeah, very mixed reactions to this one. But since it made lots of money Hollywood is not about to stop. They’re talking about another Ghostbusters and Beverly Hills Cop, folks.
