My Thoughts:

I enjoyed this one, though it did seem a bit on the weird side to me as it didn't follow the usual Superman mythos. It wasn't bad persay... just different and kinda threw me off a bit. But it was enjoyable and I can see myself watching it again.

My Thoughts:

This is a film I never seen before... but I definitely enjoyed every minute of it. It's Abbott and Costello... what is not to like about these films? Though it is slightly different then most of their other films that I have seen. in this one they went more with physical comedy then all the jokes. It was almost like I was watching Three Stooges instead of Abbott and Costello. Even with that said... this one is well worth the time put in to watch it.

Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvd



Desperate Housewives
Experience the television phenomenon that has fans cheering and critics raving. "Refreshingly original, bracingly adult and thoroughly delightful, Desperate Housewives is like the answer to a TV prayer you didn't know you'd made," says Robert Bianco of USA TODAY.

Now you can spend the night with the women of Wisteria Lane and relive every minute of the weekly television event that heated up water coolers from coast to coast. With spectacular bonus features, including extended, unrated episodes, this sizzling six-disc set is full of surprises and loaded with entertainment.


PILOT
One bright sunny afternoon on Wisteria lane, housewife and mother Mary Alice Young ended her seemingly perfect life. Now, in death, Mary Alice sees the lives of her four best friends and neighbors, Susan, Gabrielle, Bree and Lynette, and their most intimate secrets. Single mom Susan has a crush on new resident Mike, model-turned-trophey-wife Gabrielle is having an affair with her seventeen-year-old gardner, perfectionist homemaker Bree is driving her family crazy, and former career woman Lynette is stressed beyond belief from her quartet of out-of-control kids. Together these four women try to solve the mystery of what drove Mary Alice to shoot herself.

My Thoughts:
This show is an odd case for me. It is a series I never even considered collecting before. But then I won a copy of season 1 on an online contest. So I check it out.. and found this series is pretty addicting. Once you start watching you just don't want to stop. Then once I finally came to the end of the season I was like that was fun... but I am in no hurry to get season 2. And what happens? Our good friend Roger gives me a copy of season 2! And once again... I am addicted to watching this series till the end of season 2. Now today I watch the pilot episode again... and I can see myself watching this whole 2 seasons that I own once again. And even think about buying the next season.

But it seems like after a day or 2 of not watching this series I tend to forget about it and not worry about the next season any longer.

Now who has season 3 that they want to send me?  :tease:
