TV on DVD: The Ratings Game, Found Footage Festival, and One Piece
TV on DVD remains very popular with more and more favorites being released. New TV reviews include:
The Ratings Game - Danny DeVito directed and starred in this Showtime original movie that is a hilarious assault on network TV; one-part miniseries, one-part spoof, and one-part pseudo documentary framing device; Found Footage Festival: Combo Volumes 1 & 2 - anyone who enjoys random oddities and the VHS era will find something to enjoy in this set, it's a great deal of fun; and One Piece: Collection Sixteen - another fantastic batch of episodes of the long-running anime.

This Week's Notable Releases: Buckaroo Banzai, Session 9, and Man In The Wilderness
Some pretty cool discs are being released this week. Check out these new titles:
The Adventures Of Buckaroo Banzai Across The 8th Dimension: Collector's Edition - a loopy sci-fi romp now well past its 30th birthday... it hasn't aged so much as remained frozen in time, a strange and deliberately off-center relic from the early 1980s that gave a handful of future stars one of their first real chances to shine on the big screen; Session 9 - this movie creates an overwhelming sense of dread which sucks you in and won't let go; and Man In The Wilderness - based on the same source material as The Revenant, Richard Sarafian's movie serves up a much different atmosphere and scope... it's undoubtedly a more intimate and down-to-Earth film, with an extremely likable lead performance and more even-handed treatment of just about everyone.
