Memento - Special Edition (3 Discs)

http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/178737/Memento-Special-Edition/Product.html From director Christopher Nolan, a unique and intriguing thriller that begins with the ultimate act of revenge and backtracks through time to reveal the shocking and provocative reasons behind it. Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce) remembers everything up to the night his wife was brutally raped and murdered. But since that tragedy, he has suffered from short-term memory loss and cannot recall any event, the places he has just visited or anyone he has met just minutes before. Determined to find out why his wife was killed, the only way he can store evidence is on scraps of paper, by taking Polaroid photos and tattooing vital clues on his body. Throughout his investigation, he appears to have the help of both bartender Natalie (Carrie-Anne Moss), who may have her own secret agenda and police officer Teddy (Joe Pantoliano) whose friendship is always suspect.

In a bizarre merchandising opportunity, the 20th anniversary special edition DVD release of Rob Reiner's Princess Bride will be released with an interactive game. True Love and High Adventure: The Official Princess Bride Game will be packaged with the DVD. I can't even begin to guess what the game will be. I fear. Wired , however, has a go. Please let it be better than Mark Knopfler's Willy DeVille's awful awful terrible theme tune lyrics.

DVD Times - Blade Runner: The Final Cut (R1) in December - Giftset Art Added

We'll let the press release do the talking... The one that started it all. Sir Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner , starring Harrison Ford, is one of the most important science-fiction movies of the 20th Century -- the film with immeasurable influence on society for its futuristic depiction of a post-apocalyptic, dystopian world, a film perhaps more powerful and relevant today than when it was made.
Average rating (1 review) I first encountered the ZOE franchise after playing the game of the same name on the ps2. I wanted to expand my anime dvd collection also and so i bought this dvd...admittedly mainly because of the cheap price of £5! I have to say i was very impressed, theres a lot of substance to the story and characters. http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/116550/Zone-Of-The-Enders-Dolores-Vol-1-Countdown-To-Destiny/Product.html

BBC News | UK | How much of Blade Runner has come true?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1154662.stm We love to look for echoes of our present in the sci-fi films of the past. A new UN report suggests 1982's rather bleak Blade Runner may be in danger of proving all too accurate. The world's climate could soon resemble the urban smog shown in the popular science fiction movie Blade Runner, suggests a report by UN scientists working for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The sort of chemical pollution which keeps the futuristic Los Angeles of the film in permanent, drizzling twilight, could actually spread across much of the northern hemisphere in the coming decades, warns the UN.
Warner Home Video have confirmed their plans for Ridley Scott’s long-awaited definitive version of Blade Runner with a recently issued press release detailing plans for two separate DVD releases, one later this year and another to follow in 2007. Warner Home Video (WHV) announced today that it has acquired worldwide rights to Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner and plans two new DVD releases of the futuristic classic. Rights had lapsed a year ago, but negotiations for a long-term license have now been completed, and the film will again be available to the public.

DVD Times - Warner confirms Blade Runner DVD plans

POWAQQATSI's overall focus is on natives of the Third World -- the emerging, land-based cultures of Asia, India, Africa, the Middle East and South America -- and how they express themselves through work and traditions. What it has to say about these cultures is an eyeful and then some, sculpted to allow for varied interpretations. Where KOYAANISQATSI dealt with the imbalance between nature and modern society, POWAQQATSI is a celebration of the human-scale endeavor the craftsmanship, spiritual worship, labor and creativity that defines a particular culture. It's also a celebration of rareness -- the delicate beauty in the eyes of an Indian child, the richness of a tapestry woven in Kathmandu -- and yet an observation of how these societies move to a universal drumbeat.
