What are the DVD/HD reviews currently on the top of your page...

and would you watch them? Or maybe you've seen them already, who knows. On the top my page are La Terra Trema and The Fairy. I have not seen either one and judging by the covers, I probably won't unless I hear good shit about them. One looks like a dark depressing foreign film and the other looks like a whimsical romantic comedy with a man preventing some manic pixie girl from falling over a building as she smiles with her arms in the air. Sorry, DVDTalk, maybe I'll be interested in the next movies on top.

Dragon Ball Z Kai: Season 2 and The Lorax

I may one day see the Lorax but not likely. No chance on me ever seeing Dragon Ball Z. I'm not an anime guy.

PANDA GO PANDA and GET THE GRINGO on my page.

I have PANDA on VHS and I've seen it. It's an early children's anime by Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki. With those two credited, it should have been much more memorable than it is, but I can't remember a damn thing about it.

The Dark Knight Rises - Already seen it.
Total Recall - Considering that it's a great movie and it came in the mail two days ago hell yes.

SUEZ (1938) is a great epic '30s disaster movie about the building of the Suez Canal. The disaster is a sandstorm that almost derails the effort. (It came out after the successes of other '30s historical disaster movies: SAN FRANCISCO, THE HURRICANE, IN OLD CHICAGO.)

BITE THE BULLET (1975) is a western about a horse race, directed by Richard Brooks. It has a great cast (James Coburn, Gene Hackman, Jan Michael Vincent, Candice Bergen), but I don't remember the plot being very compelling. (I last saw it when it came out.) It might look better today.

The Internet According to Jules - As per the review, it's nonsensical but occasionally amusing. I caved in and read it because the damn thing kept popping up over and over again, like it just wouldn't go away.

At least I know how to start a sentence with a capitalization. You're not texting to your friend.

joysticks and Mad Monster Party

Never heard of either one but , judging solely on the covers, Joysticks looks like some 80s T&A flick so I'm not against it. Mad Monster party looks like some goofy variety show with Halloween puppets. Don't think I'll catch that one.

MAD MONSTER PARTY (1967) is awesome. It's stop-motion animated. Boris Karloff does one of the voices. It was the last time he played Frankenstein.

Mad Monster Party is indeed fun. Discovered it last year and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. A great intro monster movie for anyone with little ones. As a matter of fact, might have to try this with the boy soon.

Would never watch the Tyson one. Black Widow sounds interesting. Any recommendations on that one?

I don't read dvd talk reviews except in reviews thread. I like a general consensus, not a long, drawn out review. Plus no one has replaced Roger Ebert for me.
