The Great Raid

I think this movie lasted in the theater for like a week. Which is too bad, because its quite good. Ok, maybe they could have cut most of the Fillipino Resistance cell stuff. And the lovers seperated by war stuff that was part of it. Those scenes weren't bad, just not really needed...

Anyway, the movie is about a raid on a POW camp during the retaking of the Phillipines during WW2. A group of Rangers and Fillipino guerillas rescue over 500 captured U.S. soldiers, survivors of the Batan Death March and 3 years as POWs. Also the Japanese in this? Eeeeeevil. I mean, they pretty well were during this, but still. Eeeeeeevil...

They Might Be Giants: Direct from Brooklyn

Fourteen TMBG videos, including both Tiny Toons ones? Could this be any better? Yep. Because it has a "The Sun is a ball of incandescent gas" live in concert as a bonus feature. With a live show by their tour manager Brandon Hoffman. Who is a tattooed fire-eater. Their tour manager is a FIRE EATER! ON STAGE! How sick awesome is that? Its crazy, sick awesome I tells ya!
