Memento - Special Edition (3 Discs) 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.

Unleashed: Written and produced by Luc Besson, and directed by Louis Leterrier, Unleashed features a fantastic performance from martial arts superstar, Jet Li.

On and beneath the mean streets of Glasgow, fiery gangster Bart (Hoskins) is merciless with debtors, would-be rivals and anyone else he takes a passing dislike to. Bart maintains his stranglehold through his unwitting enforcer, Danny (Jet Li), who he has 'raised' since boyhood. Danny has been kept as a near-prisoner: trained to attack and if necessary, kill. When a sudden gangland coup separates Danny from Bart and the gang, Danny escapes the underworld. Average rating (2 reviews) Fearless:Didn't dissapoint me whatsoever, worth the hype and more and really was worth the money alone. Princess Bride interactive | Games | Guardian Unlimited. Renaissance (Animated) Paris 2054. Live forever or die trying. In 2054, Paris is a labyrinth where all movement is monitored and recorded. Casting a shadow over everything is the city's largest company, Avalon, which insinuates itself into every aspect of contemporary life to sell its primary export - youth and beauty.

In this world of stark contrasts and rigid laws the populace is kept in line and accounted for. Average rating (6 reviews) This movie shows why the everyday american film is for gotten around the world, with it's georgeous visuals, enthralling story, well written dialogue, it shows what american sci-fi films are lacking. I also watched Renaissance, an unusual "adult" animated science fiction film made in Europe, and funded with US money. I don't understand why this movie hasn't attracted more attention. The animation in this film is truly fantastic and futuristic Paris is a sight to be seen. Probably the most under-rated film noir of all time. Prophecy 1 / Prophecy 2 / Prophecy 3 - Box Set. The Prophecy: Christopher Walken leads an extraordinary cast including Eric Stoltz, Virginia Madsen, Elias Koteas, Amanda Plummer and Viggo Mortensen in a terrifying, supernatural thriller of heavenly war waged on Earth by renegade angels.

When Thomas Daggett (Elias Koteas) falls victim to confusing and horrific dreams, he abandons the church at his ordination into the priesthood. Years later as a homicide detective assigned to a grisly murder case, he discovers a series of clues with dark religious overtones. Then begins a race against time to prevent the dead man's evil soul from falling into the hands of Gabriel (Christopher Walken) who seeks to take control of Heaven from God and destroy humanity itself. The Prophecy 2: An Evil Force Has Declared War... Big-screen favorite Christopher Walken returns in a riveting performance as the menacing angel Gabriel! The Final, Most Thrilling Chapter!

What movies will you be seeing in 2008? It’s a pretty simple question, but a very complex answer. Most consumers don’t plan their movie viewing habits that far in advance, but that doesn’t stop us from trying. You might think that the title of this article is a bit deceptive, because who really sees 55 movies in a year anyway. But according to Video Business, the average American watches almost seven movies a month (sure, the majority of these films are viewed on DVD or television). But you are right, you must not see all these movies, these are just the films we’re excited about in 2008. This list includes the big films, the important films, the movies that you will be hearing about in the next year. It should be noted that this is a work of opinion, so some big Hollywood films are purposely missing (for example John Rambo, which I have no interest in, or Tina Fey’s Babby Mamma).

Jumper Choke. 70s fast-rewind. Harrison Ford Web - Latest movie news and photos plus an extensive archive. 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. The film, in fact, has appeared on more ‘Top Five’ sci-fi lists than any other film. In celebration of its 25th anniversary, director Ridley Scott has gone back into post production to create the long-awaited definitive new version, which Warner Home Video will unveil on DVD December 18th in the U.S. A showcase theatrical run is also being planned for New York and Los Angeles October 5. Simultaneous HD DVD and Blu-Ray versions (each $TBD) of the “Deckard Briefcase” will also be released in numbered, limited quantities.

Zone Of The Enders - Dolores Vol.1. 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. The action, although not quite so thick and fast as other titles does have it's moments. If you're looking to expand or begin your anime dvd collection i'd recommend this series.

Online quizzes, the best collection of web quiz games - The Office Attachments. BBC News | UK | How much of Blade Runner has come true?

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. Blade Runner - the story of a policeman on the trail of four murderous genetically-engineered androids - was one of the first sci-fi blockbusters to paint a dystopian (i.e. non-Utopian) picture of the future.

Although set in 2019, the film deals with issues and problems familiar to us today, says Ed Lawrenson from Sight and Sound magazine. "Blade Runner was always a film that is very much about 'now'. Technoir. DVD Times - Warner confirms Blade Runner DVD plans. Undergroundfilm.org - Independent Movie Distribution. Films by Reggio. 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. POWAQQATSI is also about contrasting ways of life, and in part how the lure of mechanization and technology and the growth of mega-cities are having a negative effect on small-scale cultures.
