Guardians of the Galaxy 3. No live action Little Mermaid, no 4th Indiana Jones film and no completing any form of the cinematic universes of Marvel or Star Wars going forward on DVD, Blu-ray or 4K Ultra HD in the native Australian market.</p><br />Whilst the house of mouse made no official statement to the public, nor was it reported by any of the mainstream media, the death of physical media in Australia now seems imminent. Disney, along with Universal and Sony Pictures (Whose public facing website, Kicks, closed in February this year) have been looking for an out for a number of years and now that Disney has set the precedent, I doubt the wait will be long for others to follow. <br /><br />With Sanity closing all of its bricks and mortar stores this year, the big box stores like Target, K-Mart and Big W having left the space years ago and JB HiFi suffering from shrinkage in its media department in favour of pop vinyl and pop culture clutter. That someone would rather collect a useless piece of pop vinyl representing a movie than a shiny disc featuring that movie says something about the state of the world of collecting as it stands now.<br /><br />I suppose for Disney it is not surprising. Since the inception of home video Disney has been a staunch gatekeeper of its products. Many timed releases on VHS, as well as all of the key titles returning to the 'Disney Vault" for years on end during the days of DVD. And whilst I do acknowledge that it is apparent the physical media market is getting ever smaller globally, make no mistake, this move is actually about content control. <br /><br />Just today the New York Times posted the following: "Disney’s streaming operation lost $512 million in the most-recent quarter, the company said, bringing total streaming losses since 2019, when Disney+ was introduced, to more than $11 billion. Disney+ lost roughly 11.7 million subscribers worldwide in the three months that ended July 1, for a new total of 146.1 million. " <br /><br />Streaming is certainly not something they are in for the money. The outlay for disc manufacture was made years ago, realistically Disney could just be doing what Universal have been doing since the advent of Blu-ray and simply press a single disc for multiple markets. Far less overheads that way. So if they aren't making money from streaming, why cut off an arm that is still feeding them? Control. What you can watch, when and how they want you to. Disney have been censoring, editing or altering titles on its platform with little or no warning. Most recently was the censoring of a racist remark in the film The French Connection from 1971. (RIP William Friedkin). <br /><br />It has also recently removed its own TV series Willow, based on the film of the same name, the show was commissioned and produced exclusively for Disney+ and yet it remained on the platform for 6 months before being removed indefinitely as a (checks notes) "cost cutting strategy". There is currently no other legal way in which to watch the series. Too bad if you were only half way through it. This brings me to the current state of Hollywood and the real reason for the removal of Willow and a pro point for physical media. <br /><br />Residuals.<br /><br />John Bickerstaff, a writer for the “Willow” series on Disney+, voiced his perspective on the removal through social media.<br /><br />“They gave us six months. Not even. This business has become absolutely cruel.<br />Before you say tax-write off: these shows have already been released and so can’t be a write-off. And in the case of Willow, they own the property outright. The only conclusion is that this is to get out of paying residuals. During a strike.<br />And look, eternal streaming libraries are not sustainable. We’re all going to have to adjust to that at some point. But to spend [REDACTED] on a show and then disappear it six months later is just bad business.”<br /><br />Home media gave the viewer control of what they wanted to watch when they wanted to watch it, we have lost that choice and control. Residuals for home media were set at a fixed cost, streaming residuals are a core component of the current writers and actors strike in Hollywood and as John says above will not be sustainable in their current form.<br /><br />Where do we go from here?. Well some have suggested that Disney might license titles to a third party for Australian physical distribution. This is unlikely, Random Space Media are an independent distributor here in Australia who already have Disney at the top of their partnership list, but have confirmed they will no longer have access to any form of local distribution. They, along with Sanity and Amazon will simply be offering Disney fare from countries that are currently not restricted from physical releases. Mainly the USA and the UK. This of course will be much more expensive for the collector and will only place a band aid on a wound that is only getting larger as more time passes.<br />I don’t really have a fix, but I can tell you that the ability to watch cinema quality films at home is heading towards a bleak future. One in which you not only can’t watch the film you want when you want, but when you are able to, it might not even resemble the film you remember so fondly.<br /><br />A very sad week indeed. <br />Anamnesishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14309958983726946677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913554864453186793.post-75040170339686118982023-08-09T13:49:00.006+10:002023-08-09T14:27:11.996+10:00The Meg 2: The Trench (2023)<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ28n3uBHfr8UMFxTBA04IUos-nmbyYIhmf8A_2oZhALj4cKMCfHS8GIULB_4weUsSXYPVrS-myyc5pVpLDOqmdxmPxqGcR3Bu23U5YQ13EYjmRKpDQqY_BUOZB76g8mifFbAIHqY8VjqPRrgiTaNcF2UO5ynYLPLkYpB8htAiwuNUYNEhp67ZZoZUTYs/s640/s640.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px; text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="333" data-original-width="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ28n3uBHfr8UMFxTBA04IUos-nmbyYIhmf8A_2oZhALj4cKMCfHS8GIULB_4weUsSXYPVrS-myyc5pVpLDOqmdxmPxqGcR3Bu23U5YQ13EYjmRKpDQqY_BUOZB76g8mifFbAIHqY8VjqPRrgiTaNcF2UO5ynYLPLkYpB8htAiwuNUYNEhp67ZZoZUTYs/s320/s640.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Before I begin my review of The Meg 2, a wise Jeff Goldblum once said (at least in character as Ian Malcolm) that your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should. <div><br /></div><div>I really wish the current Hollywood would stop to think if they should. We are being bombarded with needless sequels that do more damage to the reputation of the films before them than help continue the story arcs, not to mention the mega franchises that try to do nothing but story arc over multiple phases or reiterations all to make a buck at our expense. </div><div><br /></div><div>I will further preface by saying that I actually enjoyed 2018’s The Meg. It had the exact amount of dramedy, cheesiness and suspension of disbelief to actually work as a popcorn entertainment akin to the old B monster movies of days gone. I rated it up there with Alexandre Aja’s even more B grade Pirahna 3D. Now, much like Pirahna, The Meg suffers from a sequel that tries to be bigger, scarier and more actiony, but instead is bloatier, lazier and downright stupider.

Jason Statham is back as Jonas Taylor, Meg attack survivor, deep sea diver and eco warrior. Together with most of the survivors of the first film they embark on a research mission of the trench from which the Megs broke free. Things rapidly take a turn however when they come across a mining operation whose attempt to remain in the shadows leaves the team fighting for their lives whilst also bursting a hole in that wonderful protective thermal layer that was keeping the now many prehistoric and giant creatures from interacting with nearby beach resorts. </div><div><br /></div><div>Bigger is not always better and whilst it is obvious that a movie like this is written around the action sequences, rather than focusing on actually telling a story, this film can’t make up its mind. </div><div><br /></div><div>We have dinosaurs, mega sharks and even a giant squid (or octopus I don’t know or care) I could be wrong, but it certainly felt like each of the films three writers drew a name out of a hat went away and just wrote their own thing and then had to figure out how to put it all together. </div><div><br /></div><div>The film also suffers from abysmal CGI, it is so bad that for most of the film you can’t actually see anything because the CG is in fact ocean spray making sure of it! </div><div><br /></div><div>There is no consistency to the action either. One minute Jonas has 3 Megs directly on his tail, the next he is in the water, has time to swim back to his jet ski (which of course won’t start) and then proceed to keep trying to start it with nary a fin in sight! </div><div><br /></div><div>I would hope this film will be the last of the trench dwelling creatures, but given its current box office performance I dare say some other creature will be breaking free of the trench in about 5 years time.</div><div><br />

Well doesn't time fly when you are having fun?!?! Can't believe it is October already in the year 2016! Ever since the days of How B Grade Movies Saved or Ruined My Life I have often challenged myself to find new ways to watch movies I haven't seen. One such way I have been doing for a few years now is <b><i>Shocktober</i></b>. 31 Horror Films in 31 Days leading up to Halloween! Usually I just keep the lists to myself, but in those rare moments where I get inspired I occasionally write about them...and guess what...I seem to be inspired.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So the rules (<i>cause what good is a horror movie without rules!</i>)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>It must be a film you have not seen (Or A variant such as a Director's Cut)</li>
<li>If you miss a day, you must make it up (gotta reach that total 31 ;) )</li>
<li>Enjoy</li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
So, obviously it is not October first... so here is the list thus far:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href=""http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2640474">The House at the End of Time (2013)</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Not your typical haunted house movie, but certainly reminiscent of films like <i>The Others</i>, <i>The Orphanage </i>or <i>Time Crimes</i>. The film creates a pretty tense atmosphere and manages to keep its secret pretty well hidden for the duration.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1937149">The Body (2012)</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This Spanish flick has been on my to watch list for a number of years now and is probably more of a thriller than a horror film, but hey, I make the rules so I can sure as heck break em. It is quite suspenseful in parts and certainly keeps you on your toes as to what exactly is going on, but if you ever feel that you have a fool proof plan to murder someone, this film is proof positive that even the best laid plans can have unexpected road bumps and the past will always come back to haunt you.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2181298">Don't Speak (2015)</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When watching 31 films you are always bound to have a few lemons...this was the first of my 2016 lemons. Basically taking a bunch of holiday makers to a deserted location where something bad happens and one by one they get picked off. Every character in this was unlikable and thus made you just wish they would hurry up and die already so you could move on to the next film....</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2923088">The Windmill Massacre (2016)</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And here we have the first 2016 film of my 2016 Shocktober viewings! I was actually pleasantly surprised by this one. Whilst it doesn't lend anything new to genre and is a little disjointed in parts it was overall quite entertaining and certainly bleaker than any of the other entries so far this year! (I do enjoy an unhappy ending!)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Well so far, so good....here's hoping the enthusiasm continues over the coming weeks!!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Some actors continue to get typecast in certain roles, either as a result of their particular acting style or their physical appearance, but few actors have been cast in roles that are updating or remaking previous roles asoften as Chloe Grace Moretz appears to be</div>
<br />
Young Carrie has a rather unfortunate experience in gym class when she gets her first period. Coming from a seriously devout religious household she has not been informed of the change her body is going through and thus thinks she is injured or worse dying. Her peers, ever wary of her oddness, rather than helping her, take to bullying her in the most disgusting manner whilst filming it for posterity. (Aren't camera phones great!)<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgomEHjTOO9CcD_bnONueRexPXCpvbZ-iw5CQipdb2Mcy-WWaNXId9HDjiMRUQgcmtlFDSFEmXilXnj-8r-aIBSTqiA7UMHY9kAOGMQEJ6I28xuCOdcrwb-6q3Lquk3vk1Smetsbv62QFg/s1600/carrie_0cf8bb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgomEHjTOO9CcD_bnONueRexPXCpvbZ-iw5CQipdb2Mcy-WWaNXId9HDjiMRUQgcmtlFDSFEmXilXnj-8r-aIBSTqiA7UMHY9kAOGMQEJ6I28xuCOdcrwb-6q3Lquk3vk1Smetsbv62QFg/s320/carrie_0cf8bb.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div>
I guess really they have aimed Carrie at a more teenage audience... it kind of has elements of the Final Destination movies melded into it (slow motion death sequences along with blatant CGI and multiple angle repetition of shots), what I thought was a really big let down, was the missed opportunity to fit in a moral message regarding bullying, given that it is quite the issue these days. Instead it kind of hints at the whole "bullying has consequences", but takes it way too far in the end.<br />
<div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
An interesting thing happened whilst watching this! I haven't seen the original in 10 years or so and re-watching it last night made me appreciate the remake more. (Hence the review) Don't get me wrong, I still think it was a needless remake, but seeing how dated the original is, I had to appreciate the work that went into bringing the new one into the 21st century and it did do it quite well.</div>

Anamnesishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14309958983726946677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913554864453186793.post-79015206046579815582015-04-29T12:25:00.000+10:002015-04-29T12:25:26.636+10:00Hello World....So in the almost 9 months of my absence, I have moved house, downsized my collection, got back into vinyl (of all things), given up on hosting both radio shows, become addicted to <a href="https://instagram.com/anamnesis30/">Instagram</a> and pretty much shirked all of my other online responsibilities for getting out there in the 'real' world. It has been fun, but I thought I would put the blog hat back on for a day or two and see how that works out for me....<br />
<br />
So as I mentioned above, I have been getting back into vinyl....a week or so ago was Record Store Day here in Australia and I was able to pick up The Lego Movie Soundtrack from my local store...it is a pretty cool picture vinyl set as you can see below:<br />

Anyway...I picked up a Audio Technica AT-LP60 and was pretty impressed by the sound quality for a $200 unit! I have had 2 or 3 turntables lately and this was by far the best value for money! Here are a few other records I have managed to collect over the last few months...these images come courtesy of my Instagram feed so they aren't exactly detailed, but hey I am posting something so.... :P~<br />

One of the things I love about Nokia Cinemagraph is that it comes in very handy when trying to capture a moment for which a still image just won't cut it! Here are a few of my latest Nokia Cinemagraphs at taken on my Nokia Lumia 1020! </div>

Well here we are again with some new additions to the collection. Above is the <a href="http://www.kimchidvd.com/">Kimchidvd</a> exclusve steelbook edition of <b><i>Tangled</i></b> featuring a lenticular slipcover. It is very difficult to photograph, but is certainly much nicer in person! It also came with a storybook (In English), some photocards and a sticker sheet. A very nice set indeed. Next up we have some Zavvi releases:</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have held off buying <i><b>Starship Troopers</b></i> on Blu-ray, but then I jumped when this was announced. Haven't watched the disc yet, but it is a nice steelbook.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6w41Vn-5Hv5yU2LBmralOeBgtoIeavm5HxvzeX9mAQ_SSjwZxmps8DrNOqkvVgXDU3V21QjZgcAMU8BoezftKEDKiYXOKd45srPy23X76D-s1ZkJJEzQgw9DqG3l7n3jEygUFvGZJS4o/s1600/oblivion.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="289" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6w41Vn-5Hv5yU2LBmralOeBgtoIeavm5HxvzeX9mAQ_SSjwZxmps8DrNOqkvVgXDU3V21QjZgcAMU8BoezftKEDKiYXOKd45srPy23X76D-s1ZkJJEzQgw9DqG3l7n3jEygUFvGZJS4o/s320/oblivion.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i><b>Oblivion</b></i> was a bit of a miss for me, but I absolutely loved the score by M83 and bought this simply to get the isolated score in DTS surround sound! Basically if you treat the film as a music video it works very well ;)</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Again, <b><i>The Little Mermaid</i></b> is not one of my favourites, but I do really like this artwork. I am a bit pissed though that I wasn't able to secure copies of Dumbo or Lady & The Tramp, two films I would much rather own... so this may get traded.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Byzantium was a blind buy, but I really enjoyed it and the stunning visuals look fantastic on this Blu-ray. I am actually not a fan of the artwork they have used on the back cover, but that front cover almost makes me cry admiring its beauty :P</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Double dip time, <b><i>Close Encounters </i></b>is missing the second disc and booklet from the original release, so really I just bought it for the steelbook. I note it has now sold out.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
and last, but not least. I did enjoy <i><b>Django</b></i>, but I wasn't going to own it. I picked this up for $12 and as it came with the soundtrack I thought that was quite a good deal :)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have more goodies on the way including the new 50th Commemorative <i><b>JFK</b></i> release from Warner so will be posting pics of that when it arrives, I have also ordered both versions of the Kimchidvd release of <i><b>A Tale of Two Sisters </b></i>so I am looking forward to those too!!!</div>

Once again I present you with my latest Cinemagraphs as captured on the Nokia Lumia 1020! Water is still one of my favourite things to capture, so much so that I have visited countless waterfalls, lakes, streams, rivers and beaches in my quest to find things to photograph! The rest of the images can be found after the break and as usual I will warn you that the page may take some time to load depending on your connection speed! Enjoy! :)<br />

Well I have double dipped on The Wizard of Oz! I always regretted not purchasing the initial limited edition box that came out, settling instead on the local limited edition release, but now of course I am glad I held off as I really do like this edition. It will compliment my other version quite nicely :D<br />
<br />
Anyhow, this set features the newly created 3D version of the film (not that I have any interest in that what-so-ever) on Blu-ray as well as a normal 2D version and extra features presented on two more Blu-ray's, a standard DVD version with extras and a double sided disc featuring the MGM documentary "When the Lion Roars". Other "extras" include a 52 page hard cover photo book, a journal, a map of Oz, a Nobel Collection pin set, a light up ruby slipper snow globe and my personal favourite (and exclusive to the Amazon version) a USB flash drive in the shape of the Wicked Witches legs! :D<br />

<br />
Yes I am still alive.... not many updates of late I know!<br />
<br />
Well the month of September came and went and with it I have changed mobile phones once again. The Lumia 920 has been sold (and is currently doing a trip across Europe!) and has been replaced by its bigger brother the Lumia 1020! Featuring 41 Megapixels of awesome!.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
As usual, a new phone needs a bit of a work out and whilst the operating system and apps remain the same the upgrade to the camera also came with a change to the Cinemagraph app which now allows photos to be taken in HD (720) resolution. Cinemagraph is still by far my favourite photo application on the Lumia phones and is constantly giving my ideas for photos I want to try and capture! So here are a few of the Cinemagraph shots I have captured on the Lumia 1020!<br />

I must admit that the Disney steelbooks are actually a little disappointing when compared to the Canadian Viva Metal cases that Futureshop was releasing (prior to Steelbook suing Viva of course), but the <i><b>Brave</b></i>, <b><i>Muppets</i></b> and <b><i>Finding Nemo</i></b> cases are vastly superior to these latest releases which is such a shame....</div>

Saving the best for last, my current favourite film of the year,Chan-wook Park's first English speaking film Stoker!

thing to an 80's horror film in look and feel that I have seen since <i>The
House of the Devil</i> back in 2009. Whilst it does use a number of
obvious horror movie baits, for the most part it is just a genuinely
atmospheric and creepy ride into the paranormal. Director James Wan uses
sound very effectively at creating and setting mood, both with the lack of
score in certain scenes and the use of low frequencies to create a chilling and
almost constant foreboding presence. The film also looks fantastic; recreating
both the look and feel of the 70's with aplomb, but where the film really
shines is in the actual scares themselves. Unlike most horror films of
the past 10 years or so, <i>The Conjuring</i> is fairly restrained in its
depiction of violence and gore and opts instead to just let the nature of the
activity build the tension. Yes it does have some horror elements (you
can hardly be possessed without spewing something up), but on the whole the
film is a refreshing revival of the old horror lore.</span><br />

As to the true nature of the story, well I am a sceptic when it comes to these kind of things, whilst I am fairly open to the possibility of ghosts and the like, the artistic license taken by Hollywood is often more laughable to me than frightening. As an example of this - the image below is a doll known as Annabelle, she features in the film quite a bit and is based on <a href="http://www.warrens.net/Annabelle.html">this</a> account, however the 'real' Annabelle is in fact a Raggedy Ann Doll (as pictured with the real Ed and Lorraine Warren below that.)<br />

I actually think the Raggedy Ann Doll would have been creepier, but I guess that is just me...<br />
<br />
Possession movies are currently the "in-thing" in Hollywood with no less then 10 of them appearing in the last 2 years alone, from your <i>Paranormal Activities</i> to your <i>Possession 1 & 2</i>, even director James Wan has another one out this year with <i>Insidious 2</i>! If you like scary movies or the idea of at least being creeped out then this film will certainly fit the bill, hell, in the U.S the MPAA was sent the film with the studio expecting a PG-13 rating, what they got back was an R rating and the following statement: "'<i>It's just so scary. There are no specific scenes or tone you could take out to get it PG-13</i>.'" Now if that isn't an endorsement of your horror film, I don't know what is!<br />

(The scene, as it takes place in the film, has the two characters on opposite sides of each other and the image below is not mirrored.) I then had a look at the official press release photos from Getty Images (also confirmed at Movie Stills) and the following is the official press release photo as distributed by the studio:</span></span><br />

Nokia have updated the app to allow editing of existing images which is a welcome addition, however since that update the phone is a little sluggish with the actual playback of files. I seem to have developed a habit of holding the phone slightly off centre when taking images horizontally, not sure if this is as a result of the keys to the right of the screen and my attempts to avoid pressing them, but it is getting a little old to capture a great shot only to have it on an angle! Overall I have been quite happy with the control afforded by the app and I am especially impressed by some of the night images that it captures with nothing more than default settings!<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
So four years ago I wrote <a href="http://anamnesis-remembranceofthingspast.blogspot.com.au/2009/06/rant-alert-physical-media-vs-downloable.html">this</a> blog post. For those of you who weren't aware, I work in the movie rental industry. An industry that has supposedly been dying for the past 10 years. I have decided on this four year anniversary to take a look at the state of affairs in the Australia rental industry. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
As it stands currently, the
physical rental industry is on its way to an ice age, one that will see the
physical rental stores dissipate and be replaced by the ever evolving move to
on-demand or streaming services.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
As with any ice age though, the
change is not immediate, and will see a number of years of transitional
weather as the industry comes to terms with exactly what it is going to do. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
In Australia DVD rental is still
a popular form of entertainment, and for many, it is still the only way to get
access to the latest movies to watch in the comfort of your own home.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
Why?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
Well, despite the many
options for streaming or on-demand movie rentals available, the majority of new
technologies rely on the internet. A technology in which Australia
currently ranks number <a href="http://www.akamai.com/stateoftheinternet/">40 in the world</a>, even Israel,
Bulgaria and South
Korea have internet access almost 10 times
faster than our average!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
Ah, but the NBN I hear you
say!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Despite having <a href="http://www.nbnco.com.au/assets/media-releases/2013/achieved-year-end-target-11-jan-2013.pdf">commenced or completed NBN</a> access to almost 1 million premises as of this year, Australia
was one of only 3 countries to register a decline in national broadband speed
averages. (A decline of 13% no less!!) 38 percent of Australians have internet access
at or above 4Mb/s, whilst a paltry 4.1 per cent have speeds 10.1Mb/s or higher.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Compare that to South
Korea (Number 1 on the list) with 86%
coverage at speeds over 14.1Mb/s </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
In movie terms, it would take the
average Australian over an hour to download a standard definition movie from
iTunes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not exactly “on demand”.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
The other hindrance to the take
up of online services is their very nature.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Most of the popular web based rental services are subscription, meaning
you must sign up to each of them individually and in some cases pay a monthly
subscription fee in order to rent titles.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There is not a single service that offers movies from all studios and
distributors as each movie studio generally wants to control its own content
and will not license it to other vendors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>As a result, most services offer a restricted selection of new release
or back catalog titles and while this may change, presently the easiest way
to get access to the largest selection is still on physical DVD.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>

Pay TV is in a similar situation,

As with my previous post. there is still the argument for quality. With flat panels getting bigger every day and projectors becoming more common place in homes the compression used by most online services will become more and more obvious. In the U.S services like Netflix are offering HD streaming, but it is still a paltry 10-12Mbp/s vs Blu-ray's upwards of 32Mbp/s<br />
<br />
So as it stands, 4 years after the so-called death of physical media, DVD is still by far the winner in the home media format front. Blu-ray a close second and streaming media still bringing up the rear!<br />
<br />
It will be interesting to see how things play out in another 4 years time! <br />

Jordan (Halle Berry) is a 911 call centre operator, she is very good at her job, gets along with her peers and is dating a local police officer. She takes a 911 call from a young girl whose house is currently being broken in to, after telling the girl to find a room, lock herself in it and hide, the call drops out. This is when Jordan makes a grave mistake, she hits re-dial and phones the girl back, this gives the intruder the girls location and costs her her life.<br />

<br />
Flash forward 6 months and Jordon is no longer an operator, but a teacher of want to be call centre operators. That is of course, until a call comes through from Casey Welson (Abigail Breslin) who has just been abducted and has managed to call 911 from the boot of the car she is trapped in! The film actually has some genuinely tense moments during this race against the clock as the police frantically try and track down the car, but alas the tension is short lived and the film takes a harsh nose dive into the pit of stupidity and absurdity.<br />
<br />

<br />
Clearly not content with continuing the downward spiral of her own career, Halle Berry has decided to try and take a
piece of Hollywood's youth with her....Oh to have been a fly on the
wall when Abigail Breslin's manager called to tell her of an awesome
project he thinks she should do! To her credit, director Brad Anderson has done some fairly decent work over the years with films like <i>The Machinist, Transiberian and Session 9</i>,
not to mention his many TV works, but here we are presented with the
bulk standard cliche serial killer thriller. A movie that you will be spending
far too much time yelling at the stupidity of the characters on screen
than actually caring about them. And one for which Halle Berry must exude every facial expression in her repertoire in reaction to events unfolding countless miles from her location and via telephone hook up! <br />

<br />
On the whole, the film is not awful, it is just exactly what you would expect it to be. Speaking of which, I would normally provide a trailer for the film reviewed at the bottom of this post, however the trailer for the call takes the unusual step of presenting you with the entire plot of the film, ending and all. So if you did have any thought of seeing the film, don't watch the trailer, however if you are a busy person with nary 94 minutes free in your life, you could always just watch the trailer and be content that is it possibly the most tense 2 and half minute film you will see in a while!<br />

<br />
Spring Break in the United States is probably the closest real life equivalent to the adage Sex, Drugs and Rock N Roll you could get! Here in Australia the closest thing would be schoolies week up on the Gold Coast, either way, it is not a culture that this reviewer understands in the least.<br />
<br />
The opening of <i>Spring Breakers</i> is basically a 10 minute segment lifted from the deplorable <i>Girls</i> <i>Gone Wild Series</i> before introducing us to what will be the main plot. That is, we
meet four childhood friends, Faith (Selena Gomez), Brit (Ashley Benson), Candy (Vanessa Hudgens), and Cotty (Rachel Korine), who are desperate to go to spring break and escape the mundane routine of their lives, so desperate in fact that they are willing to do just about anything to get there! This includes three of the girls holding up an all night diner and robbing its patrons.<br />
<br />
Once they get to Florida they partake in many of the expected Spring Break traditions before things soon take a turn for the worse and the girls wind up getting arrested and put in jail. Soon after their court appearance one of the local drug bosses, Alien (James Franco) bails them out.<br />
<br />
His motives are a little unclear at first, but after a quick visit to a strip club, they soon learn that Alien is one of two main players in town, his ex-best friend Big Arch (Gucci Mane) being the other. They are soon caught in the middle of a drug war and things are quickly spiraling out of control.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I was not really sure what to make of this film whilst I was watching it, I am still not sure what to think writing this now, it is quite honestly unlike anything I have really seen before and is definitely not the sexy no brain comedy that some of the promotional material makes it out to be. Yes, the girls spend almost the entire duration of the film in bikinis, yes there is plenty of sex and drugs, but it was more uncomfortable than it was titillating or enticing.<br />
<br />
Artistically it looks fantastic, but then I would have expected nothing less given the cinematography is by Benoit Debie who has amazing visual presence in all of the films he has worked on. The score is by Cliff Martinez and Skrillex, so bascially the score to Traffic being remixed into Dubstep. The film barely takes a breath as far as the soundtrack is concerned with music basically under every scene.<br />
<br />
The performances from the cast are great, of course much has been made of the two former Disney girls taking on these more adult roles, but they perform very well in their character shoes (They have little else to perform in...). James Franco steals the show however, in an almost unrecognizable role as Alien, proving yet again that he is certainly one of the most versatile actors currently working in the industry!<br />
<br />
On the whole the experience was certainly different, and whilst I wouldn't say I enjoyed myself, I was at least entertained and certainly intrigued by almost every aspect of this film!<br />

Well, as most people have probably noticed, the blog has been a little unattended lately. Hopefully all of that is about the change as I will be forced to write reviews for the features I see. I am joining the ranks of Film Central, a weekly community radio show dedicated to film. Whilst I have been co-hosting the show for a while, I am now going full time every week for 2 hours discussing all of the latest releases in cinemas and on DVD or Blu-ray. I will be posting my reviews to this blog as well as maintaining the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/filmcentral">Film Central Facebook page.</a> (Feel free to like it, but don't feel obligated ;) )<br />
<br />
I will also work on podcasting the show, but there are a few rights issues to work out, so once that is all sorted hopefully you will be able to listen retrospectively! <br />

<br />
Directed By Brendan Maher (Spooks, SeaChange, Farscape)<br />
<br />
<i>Return to Nim's Island</i> is based loosely on the second Wendy Orr novel Nim at Sea.<br />
<br />
It stars Bindi Irwin in the role previously inhabited by Abigail Breslin and possibly one of the weirdest recasts known to man where Matthew Lillard takes the reigns off of Gerard Butler.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj03-wrQdLnwgD22p9XMuLwORXEy6BlfLwaKE-FLdkNbXSu2XDpUrpaoDm0DBP8A7EnciFB-6ys3Fi14ZNK8Ixsj3fI92sqDQ9V7lDTHV9vFh0glxgPbaXS_iKZDnHalMFt3iYWIOv18gE/s1600/return-nims-island-wide.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj03-wrQdLnwgD22p9XMuLwORXEy6BlfLwaKE-FLdkNbXSu2XDpUrpaoDm0DBP8A7EnciFB-6ys3Fi14ZNK8Ixsj3fI92sqDQ9V7lDTHV9vFh0glxgPbaXS_iKZDnHalMFt3iYWIOv18gE/s320/return-nims-island-wide.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
The film is easy going enough and sees Nim trying to protect her island from both the Buckaneer Cruise Company who have recently purchased the island to turn it into a resort and from a bunch of lowly poachers intent on stealing some of the islands rare wildlife, including Nim’s best friend Selkie the Seal Lion.<br />
<br />
The film does centre around an environmental message, but it was not as in your face as might have been expected and tied in quite nicely to the overall plot and character development. Bindi Irwin has clearly found the perfect platform to get her conservation message to a wider audience and at the same time do it in an entertaining way.<br />
<br />
On the whole <i>Return to Nim’s Island</i> is a light bit of family entertainment with a well meaning message and enough toilet humour to keep the kids entertained during the school holidays.<br />
