1.Panther starring: Joe Don Baker, Angela Bassett, Bobby Brown, Marcus Chong, Richard A. Dysart July 16, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $22.92
This movie came and went during its run in theaters due to its nature. But I feel that it was an honest attempt to tell the story of the most controversial party in America: the Black Panthers. The story is based on the Panthers and how they came to be. The party gets frustrated with the police brutality in America and decide to defend themselves with weaponry. The acting is pretty good all around: Marcus Chong is great as Huey P Newton, Judge is Kadeem Hardison's best performance on screen point blank period. The same goes for Bokeem Woodbine's character in this movie. The only flaw is that they leave out a few key elements that lead to their downfall but other than that I have no real gripe with this film. I thought that Mario Van Peebles did the best he could with ... Read More

I have been looking for this TV mini-series for a while. Saw it back in the 80's.......very suspenseful!!! Wish I could buy the dvd with the full series. Kathy

3.Wings starring: Richard Arlen, Clara Bow, El Brendel, Thomas Carrigan, Margery Chapin October 22, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.93
A film that hits just about every human emotion in the repertoire and does so surprisingly well, although there is some overeagerness amongst the callow youth. The biggest surprise of all, however, is just how enchanting Clara Bow is as the very sexy girl next door. While obviously men's tastes in women differ, it is still rather difficult to believe that Charles Rogers wasn't at least infatuated with his next door neighbor. Clara's personality is just as attractive as her looks. Watching her is by far the most pleasant part of the film. If only women were around like her these days...

4.Dark Horse starring: Ed Begley Jr., Mimi Rogers, Ari Meyers, Donovan Leitch, Samantha Eggar directed by: David Hemmings June 27, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.47
This movie went a bit too slow for me, but overall, it was a good film. Made me cry a couple times when soem horrific things happened to the horse. But it was genuinely a well written story and Begley, Jr. is always a solid actor. The man is one of the greats of his era, as his Oscar winning father was a great in his. Tab Hunter did a great job with a small part. But his greatest film is: Track of the Cat.

5.Melody Time (Fully Restored 50th Anniversary Special Edition) (Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection) starring: Roy Rogers, Trigger, Dennis Day, The Andrews Sisters, Fred Waring and His Pennsylvanians directed by: Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske, Jack Kinney, Wilfred Jackson June 02, 1998

It is a great video for going down memory lane,and also a great educational video of great music and artistry of great cartoons. Real creativity, education, and entertainment all wrapped up in one package.

6.River Rat starring: Tommy Lee Jones, Martha Plimpton, Brian Dennehy, Shawn Smith, Nancy Lea Owen directed by: Thomas Rickman January 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.50
OK, release this on widescreen dvd NOW, PLEASE. I thought it would be so nice to see this little Tommy Lee Jones flick I so loved as a kid, let's go rent the dvd...No DVD. What a shame. For this is a well-made, quiet little father-daughter movie set on the Mississipp. Tommy Lee is fresh out of jail for a crime he may or may not have committed as a kid. He's quiet, he's depressed, he's withdrawn. He's beaten down. Martha Plimpton is his spunky little girl he never knew. She is being raised by her good-as-gold grandma because her trashy mom is a no good deadbeat living in Memphis. Martha is so in love with Tommy Lee. What little girl wouldn't be! Slowly but surely she brings him out of his shell and makes him want to live again. Wonderful scenes between Tommy Lee and Martha (who should have been as big as Lindsay ... Read More

7.Tales From the Hood starring: Lamont Bentley, Corbin Bernsen, De'aundre Bonds, Rosalind Cash, Don Dowe August 26, 1997

8.Auntie Mame (Aniv) starring: Joanna Barnes, Henry Brandon, Coral Browne, Brook Byron, Peggy Cass October 13, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.26
What can I say...It is a classic and the DVD itself is of great quality

9.The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover starring: Richard Bohringer, Michael Gambon, Helen Mirren, Alan Howard, Tim Roth directed by: Peter Greenaway March 30, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $9.73
I remember seeing this in the theatre when it came out, I seriously had no idea what I had just watched but I knew I liked it! It wouldn't be until just this year that I finally tracked down a US DVD copy and was the high bidder, watching it again was a trip. The wild sets, the rich colours, and the intense audio track make this a movie not like many others. It seems to be something you like or something you just don't, but I think it's a great movie... not many people I know have felt the same way though, and very few people I know have even heard of it. Check it out.

10.Applegates starring: Ed Begley Jr., Stockard Channing, Dabney Coleman, Robert Jayne, Camille Cooper directed by: Michael Lehmann October 06, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $5.51
Simply put, the Applegates are your typical nuclear family who wants nothing more than to nuke the human race. Seems simple enough for a group of cockroaches from the bowels of the Amazon forest, but, alas, nothing is simple when Ed Begley Jr, Stockard Channing, and Dabney Coleman round out a cast that discovers being human is more difficult than imagined. "The Applegates" was clever, funny, intelligent, poignant, and surprisingly shocking. From the beginning, with a group of volunteers trying to teach natives over the rumble of urban sprawl in the Amazon, to the very fun ending that makes you want to clap your hands and jump in excess, "The Applegates" represented an old style of cinema that is deeply missed in modern theaters. With a calling card that screams part "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" and part the camp classic "Amazon Women ... Read More
