Faith Rewarded: The Historic Season of the 2004 Boston Red Sox

Buy it
$13 at Walmart
Far better than the World Series DVD released by MLB

Red Sox fans who feel like the 2004 season was a better gift than winning the lottery, have I convinced you? Let me know if you need more convincing.

faith rewarded is no question the better of the two. i still get chills when i watch it. :D

My wife got me The Aviator as a fathers day gift. Cool movie, but it's got me wanting to organize my pea's on the dinner plate :eek:

Haven't the past 10 years been, on balance, crap for movies in general?

In my opinion, no. I've enjoyed so many movies over the last ten years. Lord of the Rings trilogy, Spiderman 2, 28 Days Later, Bend It Like Beckham, Finding Nemo, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, The Pianist, Whale Rider, Hero, Shrek, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Meet the Parents, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, The Cable Guy, Matrix, Office Space, Sleepy Hollow, Dark City, Rushmore, Bottle Rocket, Sliding Doors, There's Something About Mary, to name my favorites.

But as for June DVD releases, seriously, take a look at them:

JoshuaB,

Thanks for the link. That looks like the most comprehensive one that I have seen for new releases.

My son really likes the music from O' Brother, Where Art Thou? also, and I downloaded a few from the internet and burned them for him to listen to.

He likes:

Keep on the sunny side
Down to the river to pray
Man of constant sorrow

28 Days Later is creepy, creepy, kind of like Omega Man.

After a sub-par month for new releases and reissues, I'm back to buying DVDs again this month.

Last night I picked up the 2 disc version of Constantine and Bill & Ted's Most Excellent Collection. A Cocteau Twins DVD unofficial video collection called Tishbites also arrived in the mail and I'm excited to check out that. They're my all time favorite group.

Other music DVDs I've recently bought at Morrissey - Who Put the M in Manchester, Dead Can Dance - Toward the Within, Live Aid, Sting - Bring on the Night

These have also been added to my collection:
Bride & Prejudice
House of Flying Daggers
Dogtown & Z-Boys: The Birth of Extreme Deluxe Edition

I might pick up Weekend at Bernies and Moving Violations sometimes since those were just reissued.

I thought this was a fantastic movie. Enjoy!

I saw the second half of this on PBS the other night and it was great! It's a recreation of the actual events, correct?

I saw this yesterday night. I liked it, ive been kind of a sucker for some of the asian releases lately.

Did anyone like Kill Bill?

Yes, I'm into the Asian releases too, including PTU, Infernal Affairs, and a couple that I'm definitely going to buy on Region 1 DVD, Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior and Kung Fu Hustle.

I haven't seen either of the Kill Bill movies because I generally have a problem with Quentin Tarantino's use of profanity and violence, and I don't think he's that sensitive in the way he portrays non-white people. Am I wrong about him with Kill Bill?

Last night I bought the region 1 version of Kung Fu Hustle and filled a hole in my collection with Pretty in Pink.

I also placed an online order for the all-region version of Infernal Affairs and a region 2 version of PTU, both Chinese films.
