DVD Review: Robin Hood: Season Three
Stories and legends are important to every culture that has ever existed. They teach children basic values such as right from wrong. They inspire people to be better than they are, and do greater thing with their lives. Some stories live on, important to many cultures, especially if the culture is an offshoot of another culture. One specific example has lasted from medieval times until today, and has been played by Sir Douglas Fairbanks, Errol Flynn, Kevin Costner, and even a cartoon fox. The legend that I am talking about is Robin Hood, and the BBC have just released the final collection, Robin Hood: Season Three on DVD.

DVD Review: Saw VI Directors Cut
“Don’t trust the one who saves you”
Strange words to be said in a movie, unless that movie is in the Saw franchise. Saw VI is as cryptic and mystifying as ever, but the series is beginning to make sense as questions are answered from as far back as Saw III.
Wii Game Review: Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars
Capcom seems to favor the first quarter of the year for its biggest releases and this 2010 is no exception with the next entry in its VS. fighting series, Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars. This cinderella story of game almost didn’t make it over to our shores, but the Gods that be or what have you saw fit to bring this gem stateside and I for one am grateful. Featuring a new simplified control system, odd characters, and crazy combos, Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom is an amazing game that fans of obscure anime or Capcom’s library of 2D fighters should definitely pick up.
