Out Today on DVD 8/5

Not a lot today that I’d recommend.  First on the list would be The Counterfeiters though.  I’m pretty sure it won best foreign language film award at the Oscars.  It looked good and I’d meant to see it but I didn’t.  I don’t remember why I didn’t, because I know Dr. Cyborg saw it.  It did look good though.

Gattaca is coming out today.  That movie’s a solid 10.  A cool thing about this version is that it comes with a digital copy as well.  The problem with digital copies is that sometimes they work really easy (like Family Guy: Blue Harvest) and load right into your iTunes.  Sometimes (Justice League: The New Frontier) they direct you to some lame ass website that you can’t figure out and your mac doesn’t seem to be compatible with.  Anyhow, if you haven’t seen Gattaca, now is the time.

Paul Verhoeven’s Starship Troopers is coming out again today, too.  That movie’s great.  It’s sort of a great “What if…?” concept.  What if Frank Capra directed a movie about a war in the future?  You’d get Starship Troopers.  This movie is seriously a lot of fun and it has a lot to say about propoganda.
