The Bat, a review by addicted2dvdTV Stars in the Movies Marathon Title: The Bat Year: 1959 Director: Crane Wilbur Rating: NR Length: 80 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital Mono Subtitles: N/A Stars: Vincent Price as Dr. Malcolm Wells Agnes Moorehead as Cornelia Van Gorder Gavin Gordon as Lieutenant Anderson John Sutton as Warner Lenita Lane as Lizzia Allen Star(s) of TV Series:
Plot:Extras: N/A My Thoughts: This is the first time I ever seen this classic Vincent Price movies. It is on double feature disc with House on Haunted Hill. Another Vincent Price movie. This DVD is put out by the Roan Group and is labeled Horror Classics #3: Vincent Price Collection . But the problem with that is I wouldn't call The Bat a horror movie. It is a murder mystery. But it is one I enjoyed. I am glad I have it in my collection. I admit it was a little strange to see Agnes Moorehead in something other then Bewitched... but she did a good job. Thought she was very believable in the role. I enjoyed the storyline... even though I did guess the murderer ahead of time. I wouldn't say it is completely obvious... but I did guess it about half way through the movie. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 (From Weekend Movie Marathon: TV Stars in the Movies on March 6th, 2010) Look, Up In The Sky!: The Amazing Story of Superman, a review by addicted2dvdTitle: Look, Up In The Sky!: The Amazing Story of Superman Year: 2006 Director: Kevin Burns (1955) Rating: NR Length: 110 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 1.78:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital: 5.1 Subtitles: French Stars: Kevin Spacey Gerard Jones Forrest J Ackerman Elliot S! Maggin Mark Hamill Mark Waid Plot: From comic books to radio shows. From TV to blockbuster motion pictures. For nearly seventy years, the Man of Steel has delighted generations of fans and helped define the meaning of the word "hero." This definitive telling of the Superman saga traces the character's humble beginnings all the way up to his emergence as the world's mightiest pop culture icon. Includes rare footage, outtakes and exclusive interviews. Also includes a behind-the-scenes look and a special sneak peek at Superman Returns. No matter if you're a movie fan or just a Superman fan - this is the adventure you've been waiting for! Extras: Scene Access Bonus Trailers Closed Captioned My Thoughts: Watched this today for Jackie Cooper's birthday. As I felt like something from Superman but watched and reviewed all the Superman movies more then once here already... so really didn't feel like one of the movies. Plus I haven't seen this documentary since it first came out. Jackie Cooper only had one brief interview in this... but there were also several clips of him from the movies. This is a good documentary on the Superman mythology. Starting from the very beginning of when the two 16yr old boys had their original idea for him... bringing us to pretty much current times. Covering everything from comic books to radio to television to movies. While I did like it... I could almost say it covered too much as I did start to tire of it towards the end a little. But it is enjoyable. And it was good to see some of the actors as they are now... especially the ones from the older shows. Worth watching... but don't think it is something that can be watched all that often. Unlike how I am with the movies. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 (From Addicted2DVD's September Birthday Marathon on September 15th, 2010) Tom's Random Reviews, a review by TomTitle: Andy Richter Controls the Universe: The Complete Series Year: 2002 Director: Rating: NR Length: 417 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 1.78 Audio: English: Dolby Digital Stereo, Commentary: Dolby Digital Stereo Subtitles: Stars: Andy Richter Paget Brewster Irene Molloy Jonathan Slavin James Patrick Stuart Plot: The rules of comedy are about to be broken in Andy Richter Controls The Universe, one of the funniest sitcoms in TV history. A bored writer of instruction manuals, Andy spends his office hours daydreaming about what his life could, should and ought to be. Starring in his outlandish fantasies are his unlucky-in-love boss Jessica (Paget Brewster), best buddy Keith (James Patrick Stuart), quirky pal Byron (Jonathan Slavin) and Andy's secret object of desire, Wendy the receptionist (Irene Molloy). Featuring the Emmy®-nominated series' 14 episode run – plus 5 that were never shown on network TV – this it cutting edge lunacy at its irreverent best, a mirth-quaking 10 on the Richter scale! Extras: Closed Captioned Commentary Featurettes My Thoughts: When Andy Richter left the Late Night Show with Conan O'Brien, he started this great (but sadly short-lived) comedy series. It has a great cast. I especially liked Jonathan Slavin as Andy's new collegue Byron. Paget Brewster is really beautiful in this series. The main gag in this series is, that you always see something really strange happening, which turns out to be Andy's imagination, followed by his "...this is what really happened". Episodes:
