Anime pick is season two of Tonikawa.” Blaine says, “I did see Superman in theaters, and I can heartily endorse it.”

  1. My unpopular opinion is that Airplane II is just as good a the original, even though the original writers were not involved. with that said, I don’t know that it needs a 4K release…

  2. Superman is definitely on the to-watch list.

    We grabbed Beetlejuice Beetlejuice from the library thinking, “Why not?” Oh man. That was just awful. Is it time we had a serious talk about how Burton hasn’t really made anything better than middling since Big Fish?

    Edit: Sound of Music is one of those rare beasts where the film version is better than the stage production. The characters are more fully rounded out and the build up of the Nazi power in Austria is much more chilling.
