Blu-ray Review: Smallville: The Complete Ninth Season
We've been with Clark Kent through a lot. We've seen his Superbaby crash and Smallville High School years, we've seen him through his tempestuous "will they or won't they?" relationships with Lana Lang, Lois Lane, and arguably Chloe Sullivan and Lex Luthor as well (The subtext is in there, just ask any Smallville slash writer!). We've seen him go from meteor freaks to DC's D-List to the nascent Justice League to the Legion of Super-Heroes and even Doomsday, and yet he survives for yet another season.

DVD Review: Chuck- Season 3
Coming in strong off its amazing and impressive second season, NBC's Chuck had a lot to live up to in its third season. With no single bad episode yet, viewers kept wondering not if but when Chuck would finally stumble. Viewers figured it was a inevitability, and with its title character now a full-fledged spy – and not just a bank of information but also a Swiss Army knife set of skills – would this cause the show's title character to lose his odd man out/underdog appeal he had in the first two seasons?
Blu-ray Review: Lost In Space
Hollywood sure went sci-fi remake crazy after CGI hit the scene, didn't it? The Day the Earth Stood Still, War of the Worlds, The Time Machine, Planet of the Apes: All classic science fiction films from the 50s and 60s that have earned remakes in the past ten years. Among the earlier CG-heavy sci-fi remakes is Lost in Space, the 1998 film recreating the universe of the 1960s TV show of the same name.
Now Lost in Space is available on Blu-ray!

Blu-ray Review: A Scanner Darkly
What does a scanner see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does it see into me, into us? Clearly or darkly? I hope it sees clearly, because I can't any longer see into myself. I see only murk. I hope for everyone's sake the scanners do better. Because if the scanner sees only darkly, the way I do, then I'm cursed and cursed again. I'll only wind up dead this way, knowing very little, and getting that little fragment wrong too.
