I have just found this cool software called w.bloggar that can be used to edit your Web Logs on many sites, such as Blogger which I am using. You just need to specify the service you’re using, along with your user name and password, and you can then create new posts, edit old ones, and have access to a lot of nice editing capabilities at the same time.
I just joined the team of DVD reviewers of a site called uneporte.net. My first published review is of the DVD Box Set of Le Dernier Chapitre. I will be writing more reviews for this site on a regular basis. The next one I started working on will be of the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets DVD.
The Sleeping Beauty Special Edition DVD set has finally been announced for release in North America. It has already been out for over 6 months in Europe. It will be a two-disc set with a new restored transfer of the movie.
I have just discovered a nice little gem called “Runaway A Road Adventure“. Despite the name making us think it’s an American game, this title was developed in Spanish, then translated to German, and now just came out in France. There is also an English version in development to be released in the next few months. As the name suggests, this is an adventure game, and a pretty good one from what I have seen in the demo available on their site. It is reminescent of Lucasarts Adventure Classic such as the Monkey Island games and Day of the Tentacle. The game is coming out in Quebec on April 22nd.
I just got the box set for the first season of Le Dernier Chapitre, published by Morningstar Entertainment and I must say they did a great job producing it. The artwork is great and so is the video transfer.
A petition is being organised to get the original version of the Star Wars trilogy out on DVD.
As it stands, George Lucas has stated in an interview recently that he would only release the Special Edition version of the three classic films on DVD. If you want to see the original version on DVD, go and sign the petition on OriginalTrilogy.com.
The second short film of The Animatrix has been posted on the web. Entitled Program, it is a pretty cool story.
The first season of Le Dernier Chapitre, presented on Radio-Canada last year, will be released on DVD this week on March 18th. The english version, The Last Chapter will also be available. This series tells the story of rival biker gangs in Toronto, fighting for control of the territory. It stars Michael Ironside and Roy Dupuis.
Dark Angel Lives On! Even though the series was cancelled after two seasons, and never saw an ending on TV, the series lives on. Two books have been published based on the show. The first one, Before the Dawn, is a prequel to the series, while Skin Game is a sequel, picking up where the series ended. Both of these are already out. A third novel is scheduled for a June release, called After the Dark.
As well, a Dark Angel video game was released for the Playstation 2 and XBox and the Complete First Season will be offered on DVD shortly.
Star Trek: Nemesis is coming to DVD on May 20. It’s not going to be a two-disc edition like a lot of titles these days, but still seems well packed. Who has the time to watch all of these special features anyways, right? Find it here.
