My Pick of the Week is the first episode of the fifth game in the Monkey Island series. I'm glad that they're bringing back the voice actor for Guybrush from the previous two games. He made the character whiny but in a funny way.
Also available on DVD is Mystery Science Theater 3000 XV. The first episode is Aztec Mummy, a very early episode where they broke some rules that they never did again. I haven't seen it. The second is Girl's in Lover's Lane, which I've seen as well. Zombie Nightmare is third and the most famous episode featured on this volume. It has Adam West but that's all I can remember about it. The final episode is Racket Girls. This is a very funny episode with a well-meaning but funny short about preparation for marriage. The movie is about women wrestling and the match with the BEST WOMAN WRESTLER IN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL MEXICO is a highlight. This set also includes an interview with Jon Mikl Thor, who went on to even dumber movies than Zombie Nightmare and clips from the MST3k Scrapbook video. The latter is one of the best things that MST3kinfo used to sell by catalogue. If you order the set from amazon now you can save about 20 bucks.
"Two hundred years ago, an extraordinary conflict decided the fate of North America, confirmed the creation of Canada..." So says the description for a mini-series about the War of 1812. I know that creating a new nation is a big idea and you can get plenty of drama from that, but this still amuses me for some reason.
This DVD is like a guidebook to San Francisco. It supposedly comes with an Hd-DVD. I guess this is a long delayed release or HD-DVD fans are underground. FIGHT THE BLU POWER!
In theaters, we have Borat Borat Borat Borat Borat Borat! Borat? Borat borat! BORAT! BOOOOOOORAT! Borat.
Finally on the Wii we have Bigs 2, an arcade like baseball game. Insert inevitable steroid comment or joke here.
