This past July SoCalThrills.com was invited to the Warner Bros. studio for a thrilling sneak preview of the Wizard of Oz 70th Anniversary Collector’s Edition.
Truthfully, this is the Blu Ray release you’ve been waiting for. It is obvious even just from a technical standpoint that Warner Bros has pulled out all the stops for this latest journey to the Land of Oz.
Under the supervision of Ned Price (Vice President of Mastering) and Andrea Fischer (Executive Director of Video Mastering) Dorothy and her friends have all been lovingly transferred into high definition. The recently re-mastered footage was created from the original film negatives, which was then carefully scanned to unlock each frames full Technicolor potential.
For the technologically inclined; this film’s 8k resolution will be enough to make you squeal with glee but for the digital laymen like myself all it took was one look at an exclusive before and after look at the Tinman’s “If I only had a heart” scene. Which showed clips comparing side by side the older footage to the latest edition. The difference is distinct and downright impressive. The quality of the image unlocks something new and exciting about almost every scene, from the ability to finally see this masterpiece as it was intended to be viewed and even the chance to spot Judy Garlands freckles.
Luckily, Warner Bros. is releasing this latest edition in multiple ways for all to enjoy it. The first being, a one-night only theatre release (in select cinemas Sept. 23) followed quickly by the incredible Ultimate Collectors edition available both on Blu-Ray and DVD Sept. 29th. The Ultimate edition is stuff solid with 16 hours of special features (some of which has never been released) and exclusive collectibles.
In truth we all have an Oz story of our own, whether it be as a fleeting memory or as an american entertainment staple. Either case is just enough reason to get those ruby slippers ready for this late-September release, when there really will be no place like home to see the highest quality Oz, this side of the rainbow.
Exploring the science fiction barely beyond our own reality, Fringe is an extremely entertaining new show about science run amok. Every day it seems as if there are new scientific breakthroughs that defy the laws of what we know to be true, and creators J.J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman, and Roberto Orci have crafted a fascinating mythology around this concept.
Centering on what is referred to as “The Pattern,” the show explores a seemingly random series of disasters all somehow linked through “fringe science.” Anna Torv plays Olivia Dunham, the newest addition to the Fringe Division of the FBI. She is teamed up with Walter Bishop (brilliantly played by John Noble), who’s work is directly responsible for many of the incidents in “The Pattern.” As the show begins, he is in a mental institution, and is released to his old lab in order to assist Olivia. The third main cast member is Walter’s sarcastic son Peter (Joshua Jackson). The interaction between these three provides the backbone of the show and gives it the human element a global story like Fringe needs.
Very much in the vein of The X-Files, Fringe alternates it’s stories between the seemingly stand-alone and those based on the show’s central mythology. As the season progressed, the long-term story became more of a focus, and this is when the show really began to come into it’s own. I personally found Episode 10, entitled Safe, to be a major turning point for the show. It was in this episode that they really began exploring the larger scope of the story, setting up a season ender that completely redefines what the show is about.
Exclusive Clip from the DVD:
On September 8, the entire first season comes to Blu-Ray. One of the most cinematic shows on television, Fringe works perfectly in this format. Frequently shot on location, and featuring a wide variety of practical and computer generated effects, this is the type of show that needs to be seen in the best format possible. Every episode looks gorgeous and watching in this new technology only enhances the experience.
The set also features some really compelling bonus features. One of the more interesting ones showcases six individual scenes, which are then analyzed by “experts who evaluate with notes, photos and diagrams.” This feature doesn’t entirely pertain to the show itself, but it is fascinating to see just how close the concepts of the story mirror real studies happening today. There is also a really fun feature on the visual-effects, as well as short behind-the-scenes segments on each episode.
My only real complaint with the set is in the layout of the extras. They are all scattered throughout the discs, either attached to the episodes or in their own sections. Personally, I would have preferred to have everything together instead of having to hunt down each segment individually. This is a minor complaint, however, for what is a great set. I thoroughly enjoyed Season 1, and the cliffhanger has me genuinely excited for Season 2. If you haven’t seen the show yet, I definitely recommend catching up for the new season, and Blu-Ray is a great way to see it.

In Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure, Tinker Bell’s greatest adventure yet takes place in Autumn, as the fairies are on the mainland changing the colors of the leaves, tending to pumpkin patches, and helping geese fly south for the winter. The rare Blue Moon will rise, and when its light passes through the magical Fall Scepter that Tinker Bell has been summoned to create, Pixie Hollow’s supply of pixie dust will be restored. But when Tinker Bell accidentally puts all of Pixie Hollow in jeopardy, she must venture out across the sea on a secret quest to set things right.
Oscar™-winning actor Robin Williams, the extraordinary actresses of The Golden Girls, the voices of Donald Duck and Goofy, and other incomparable contributors to the Disney legacy will be honored on Sept. 10 at the 2009 Disney Legends Awards during the D23 EXPO at the Anaheim Convention Center.
The Disney Legends Awards are a 22-year tradition of The Walt Disney Company, and the four-day D23 EXPO provides a rare opportunity for the public to watch the awards presentation. The awards ceremony, hosted by ABC personality Tom Bergeron, will take place at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 10, in the Anaheim Convention Center Arena. It directly follows a special, one-hour presentation by Walt Disney Company President and CEO Bob Iger that kicks off the first day of the D23 EXPO – which promises to be the ultimate Disney fan event.
“This year’s recipients have had truly indelible influence on the Disney legacy,” Iger said. “Whether on screen or behind the scenes, these 10 men and women have contributed their talents in countless ways, and we are very honored to name them as Disney Legends.”
The 2009 Disney Legends Award honorees (listed alphabetically) are:
TONY ANSELMO is a Disney animator who, since 1985, has provided the incomparable (and some would say inimitable) voice of Donald Duck in movies, cartoons, TV shows and theme-park attractions.
HARRY ARCHINAL is the former president of Buena Vista International, who helped expand Disney’s cinematic presence into regions outside of the U.S. and Canada, bringing Disney movies to audiences around the world.
BEATRICE ARTHUR brought deadpan comic timing and enormous warmth to the role of Dorothy Zbornak in The Golden Girls from 1985 to 1992, a role that brought her a second Emmy Award (in addition to an Emmy for Maude). She was also a Tony Award-winning stage actress and is in the Academy of Television Arts & Science’s Hall of Fame. Note: This award is presented posthumously.
BILL FARMER is an accomplished voice actor whose enormous body of work has included providing the voice of Goofy since 1986. Farmer has also been the voice of Pluto and Horace Horsecollar for Disney productions.
ESTELLE GETTY was, in fact, younger than Beatrice Arthur but portrayed her mother, feisty Sophia Petrillo, in The Golden Girls from 1985 to 1992. She received an Emmy Award for the role – which she reprised in Golden Palace and Empty Nest – and was nominated six additional times. Getty was one of the first recipients of the “In Memoriam” Tony Award for her Broadway stage work. Note: This award is presented posthumously.
DON IWERKS is the son of Walt Disney’s longtime friend and animator Ub Iwerks. Don Iwerks worked at Disney from 1951 to 1986, and created revolutionary film systems that were used in movies like Mary Poppins (sodium traveling matte process) and in such Disney theme park attractions as “CircleVision 360” and “Star Tours.”
RUE McCLANAHAN was honored with an Emmy Award for her hilariously lusty, warm-hearted role as Blanche Devereaux on The Golden Girls, which she also repeated on Golden Palace. From 1972 to 1978, McClanahan played opposite Beatrice Arthur as Vivian on Maude, and also co-starred in Mama’s Family. In addition to her renowned work on TV, on stage and in films, McClanahan is active in animal-rights, cancer and AIDS organizations.
LEOTA TOOMBS THOMAS was working at Walt Disney Imagineering (then WED Enterprises) when she served as a model for a new attraction called the Haunted Mansion. She soon became world-famous as the Mansion’s disembodied Madame Leota. Note: This award is presented posthumously.
BETTY WHITE has become a television icon, especially for her role as slightly befuddled, always charming Rose Nylund in The Golden Girls – for which she received one of her six Emmy Awards. White has also been a key cast member in such hit TV shows as The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Golden Palace, The Practice and her own series, The Betty White Show. She has been seen in 19 films and has long supported many animal-rights organizations.
ROBIN WILLIAMS is the recipient of six Golden Globes, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, three Grammy Awards and the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor (1997). His unforgettable film work for Disney has included providing the voice of Genie in Aladdin and starring in Good Morning, Vietnam, and Dead Poets Society. He also appeared in the short film Back to Neverland at Disney theme parks. This fall, Williams stars with John Travolta in Old Dogs from Walt Disney Pictures.
Each honoree receives a two-foot-tall bronze Disney Legends sculpture that signifies the imagination, creativity and magic they have brought to the Company. Disney Legends Award recipients also participate in a hand-print ceremony, and their bronzed prints will be displayed in the Disney Legends Plaza at the Company’s Burbank headquarters.
The first Disney Legend, actor Fred MacMurray (The Shaggy Dog, The Absent-Minded Professor, The Happiest Millionaire), was named in 1987. Including this year’s honorees, a total of 237 Disney Legends have been named. Past Disney Legends include Tim Allen, Julie Andrews, Howard Ashman, Annette Funicello, Peter Jennings, Angela Lansbury, Steve Martin, Alan Menken, Hayley Mills, Fess Parker, Sir Tim Rice, Dick Van Dyke and Barbara Walters.

Let’s be honest here, the only mystery, is Why on earth Warner bros. has released the third volume of the first season of Scooby Doo: Where are you? Especially after having already released the complete series into proper season divisions one has to wonder…
Now granted of course beneath this obvious monetary ploy, it is still the Hannah Barbara classic so many have known and loved for quite sometime. This disc includes the following classic episodes from Scooby Doo: Where are you: The Backstage Rage, Bedlam in the Big Top, A Gaggle of Galloping Ghosts, (and my personal favorite) Scooby-Doo and a Mummy too! Also in the mix is an admittedly entertaining bonus episode from Shaggy and Scooby-Doo: Get a clue.
In closing, this latest addition into the Scooby-Doo collection is clearly intended for those of you looking for a last minute gift for a youngling. With four classic episodes of the original meddling kids you truly cannot go wrong, and it may be a great way to introduce a new gang into the Scooby-World. However for the true fans and collectors, do yourself a favor and hunt for the complete series (available online after mere moments of searching).
For a lacking feature list, and high price, Scooby Doo Where are you Volume 3 is receiving 2 of out 5 scooby snacks (ruh-oh!)

The spectacular Halloween classic, Pooh’s Heffalump Halloween Movie, is now a limited edition gift set with an exclusive Pooh dressed as Tigger beanz plush –available in limited quantities on September 1, 2009 on Disney DVD. The hilariously haunting movie features Pooh and his friends as they weave unconditional friendship with spooky adventures and warm-hearted moments. Set in the Hundred Acre Woods, Roo is ready to accompany his new friend, Lumpy the Heffalump on his first trick-or-treat adventure until they quickly discover Pooh has eaten all the candy.

There is certainly some enjoyment to be had with this movie (and the inclusion of some of the party planning material and the plush Pooh is great), but there should have been more.
“Pooh’s Heffalump Halloween Movie Limited Edition DVD Gift Set” is a family fun DVD featuring Winnie the Pooh and gang. Can children of all ages watch the film, I would say yes. But parents who are cautious about images of bats in animated format, aside from Tigger’s (not-so-scary story), it depends on how a younger toddler may react to it but for the most part, the film is light-hearted at best.
Overall, “Pooh’s Heffalump Halloween Movie Limited Edition DVD Gift Set” is an enjoyable and family fun-tastic Winnie the Pooh DVD release from Disney and definitely a gift set worth purchasing!

The new medium of the webisode has finally gone mainstream or at least in the process. Warner Brothers, the movie studio who most exemplifies the tent-pole strategy, has ventured into the world of online digital media. The web has seen some progress as the medium of the future with original content like Neil Patrick Harris’s Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog and Felicia Day’s The Guild, but efforts from media giants have yet to come to fruition until now.
Warner Brothers introduces their new project, One eskimO, an experiment that blends music, narrative, and interactive media all in one, which is to be released exclusively on the web. At the root of project is the UK band One eskimO whose music and name most likely provided the inspiration for the venture. Their music feels somewhat similar to pop adult contemporary acts, like The Fray, but with an electronica ambiance tinge. They recently released their debut effort, All Balloons, which provides the backdrop for the soon to be web series.
The basis for the plot is fairly simple with the protagonist, One eskimO, on the search for his love, Little Feather with his animal pals. The series animation is provided by Jamie Hewlett, the animator for the digital band, Gorrilaz, and does an exceptional job here as well. It will be interesting to see how well the efforts of a major studio are received considering the web’s tendency towards niche audiences.
Last November, I wrote a pretty scathing review of the seventh season of Scrubs. It pained me to watch one of my favorite comedies devolve into the mess it had become, but I tried to remain positive. I ended my review with the hope that the writers would find a “new level of creativity that has been long missing,” and that they “remember to be funny while they are doing it.” Well, I am thrilled to say that they succeeded on both counts.
A large part of this improvement can be attributed to all the new characters. This season found a new group of interns joining the Sacred Heart staff, and in a perfect example of a show coming full circle, the characters that began the show as interns eight years ago must now train the new batch. As well as providing a thematically perfect season, these new additions also proved to be a hilarious group of comic foils for the leads to play off. All the interns were cliched stereotypes on the surface (the tough one, the peppy one, etc.), but there was a depth to them that was unexpected and thoroughly entertaining. As the season went along, they became real characters, and I found myself just as involved in their stories as those of the leads.
Now don’t get me wrong, this season isn’t perfect. Every year, Scrubs has a gimmick episode (the musical, the sitcom, the fantasy, etc.) and this season found the gang in the Bahamas. This two-part episode was painfully unfunny, and although it tried to acknowledge the ridiculousness of the situation with several references to a similarly themed Brady Bunch episode, the whole thing fell flat. Coming right in the middle of the season, it didn’t fit with the rest of the year.
One of the longest extras on the newly released Season 8 DVD is a documentary about the filming of this “very special episode” in the Bahamas. They acknowledge the ridiculousness of the whole premise, but seemed to genuinely think they were making a hilarious episode. They weren’t. Interestingly, the biggest feature on the Season 7 DVD was also a documentary about their gimmick episode (a Monty Python-esque fantasy), and it too was pretty bland. While I love the show, the DVD extras could definitely be more compelling.
Having said that, I did enjoy the Webisodes included on the disc. They feature the interns (in case you can’t tell, I really like this group), and while they do include cameos from the principal cast, they also showcase the ability of these characters to carry their own show. There are rumors about a possible spin-off, and I really hope we get that show someday.
The DVD also includes some mildly funny bloopers, deleted scenes, etc. Overall, it’s a solid set, but I thought this great season deserved a better release. I should also note that the Season (series?) finale is one of the most perfect endings to a sitcom I have ever seen. I don’t want to give anything away, but it is a beautiful ending; artistic and emotionally satisfying. It gives closure to all of the main characters in an incredibly moving way. Any desire I had for another season was immediately removed after this, and I really hope that we get to remember seeing these characters for the last time in this perfect ending.
A young Marine returns home for what might be the last time in American Son, a gritty and affecting drama coming to DVD on August 25, 2009 from Miramax Films and Buena Vista Home Entertainment. Exclusive bonus features, including interviews with the filmmakers, provide an unflinching look behind the scenes of this cinematic tour de force about a young man’s uncertain coming of age.
Mike (Nick Cannon) just arrived from Iraq. He meets a Latina girl named Cristina (Melonie Diaz) on the bus who he falls in love with. Mike and his father Eddie try to help their brother who is a crack fiend but to no avail. Mike struggles to find himself whether he really is fit to be a Marine. Mike and Cristina for the most part hang out and party. He flips out at a party and beats up a gang member for hitting on his girl Cristina. Mike and his long time friend Jake (Matt O’Leary) have a fall out. Her mother then finds out that Mike is going to fight in Iraq. It’s tearful ending when you watch her mother send away her young son to war.
This indie film’s special features are limited to three which aren’t particularly interesting or entertaining. These sections include “On Leave in Bakersfield: Behind the Scenes of American Son” which is a walk-through of the filming process, two deleted scenes appropriately removed from the film with optional commentary, and feature length audio commentary by director Neil Abramson and producers Danielle Renfrew and Michael Roiff.
It’s the sensational performances by Nick Cannon and Matt O’Leary that keep the film compelling, despite the fact that its attempts to make a statement fall flat. Given that the film does have a some good moments to offer, I don’t discourage people from seeing it. It’s far from a poorly made film, just a routine one that doesn’t have much creativity at its core. What you’re left with is something that’s been done before, and in a much better fashion. It’s not the first film featured with sex, drugs, and hostilities and it certainly won’t be the last.
With the announcement of four new maze experiences, four new “scare zones,” a new “Terror Tram” backlot experience, a “Rocky Horror Picture Show: A Tribute” and a new “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Halloween Adventure” production, the re-imagining of Halloween Horror Nights for 2009 at Universal Studios Hollywood is now complete, setting the stage for the most intense and impactful “live” horror event ever to be presented in a theme park environment.
Halloween Horror Nights, Southern California’s most terrifying Halloween event, begins a 16-night run on Friday, October 2. Tickets are on sale at www.UniversalStudiosHollywood.com beginning today at 4:00pm.
New “Halloween Horror Nights” attractions will include “Saw: Game Over,” a “live” maze experience based on the “Saw” film franchise, per an agreement among Universal Studios Theme Parks, Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures. The interactive maze, “Halloween: The Life and Crimes of Michael Myers,” per an agreement reached between the theme park and Compass International Pictures. will be the first attraction based upon the “Halloween” films to be created by a U.S. theme park. The “live” multi-sensory horror experience, “My Bloody Valentine: Be Mine 4 Ever,” per an agreement between the theme park and Lionsgate®, the leading next generation studio, will be based on the 2009 theatrical re-make of the original 1981 Canadian slasher classic and will be the most lifelike representation of film horror ever created for a Halloween maze attraction. “Chucky’s Fun House” will be a fresh, flesh-and-blood incarnation of one of Universal’s most iconic horror franchises, and a more intense, interactive horror experience will be realized on the new “Terror Tram: Live or Die” walk-through attraction on the historic Universal backlot.
The “Rocky Horror Picture Show: A Tribute,” bringing the mayhem of the classic horror spoof to life on-screen and on-stage with live performers singing and dancing in the celebrated, outrageous “Rocky Horror” costumes, will also be part of the Halloween Horror Nights event, per an agreement between the theme park and Twentieth Century Fox’s Licensing & Merchandising Division. An all-new “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Halloween Adventure” show will also be featured within the event.
New “scare zones” will include a live staging of the 2004 Universal cult hit, “Shaun of the Dead,” a “Welcome to Hell!” where the seven deadly sins are punished by stilt walking demons whose torments are punctuated by dramatic fire effects. In the “The Meat Market,” fog will roll across rotting, maggot-infested animal carcasses and the whirling blades of the butchers’ chainsaws will be the only noise loud enough to drown out the sound of buzzing flies. In the final “scare zone,” “Freakz,” the denizens of and old carnival Freak Show will have developed a taste for human flesh.
