The big news of the week has got to be Toy Story 3. At long last, it's here. Been a long time. Almost everything else -- sequels, prequels, spin-offs, and remakes. And trailers of same.

Amidst the Potter and Narnia stuff, if you look past The Hobbit, Clash of the Titans, and the return of The Wizard of Oz, you'll find Atlas Shrugged. That's the Ayn Rand novel Hollywood has been trying to turn into a film for almost half a century. You'll never believe how they're already screwing it up. (Unless you've already read our coverage from earlier this week.)

If Ayn Rand showed any emotion, she'd roll over in her grave over Atlas Shrugged

I had a friend who had done some jail time. I was always very curious about this because I knew that it would be hugely unlikely I would ever see the inside of a cell (knock on wood).

We love our family, but the imagination is stirred by everything that happens when not at home, when not in a safe place. And yet that simple message that there is no place like home, that desire to return to one’s family is pretty profound in the movie. Wizard of Oz,...

Chicago – The Warner Brothers Blu-Ray release to mark the 70th anniversary of the beloved “The Wizard of Oz” is perhaps the most exhaustive and complete “Collector’s Edition” release to date. Warner Brothers, a studio that knows how to treat their classics, releasing gigantic sets for “Blade Runner” and “Casablanca” in recent years and with another for “Gone With the Wind” coming soon, has done it again, and arguably better than ever.

Blu-Ray Rating: 5.0/5.0

As for the film itself, what more could possibly be written about “The Wizard of Oz”? By some standards, it’s the most watched movie in world history, a film that has transcended its genre to simply become a part of the history of the planet. Have you ever heard someone criticize or complain about “The Wizard of Oz”? Me either.

The Wizard of Oz: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector’s Edition was released on DVD and Blu-Ray on September 29th,...
