Submitted by PatrickMcD on July 8, 2022 - 2:40pmCHICAGO – The fan gathering conventions are coming back, and a new one has emerged.

TV Review: Clever, Fun ‘Toy Story of Terror’ Makes ABC Debut
Submitted by BrianTT on October 16, 2013 - 9:00amCHICAGO – Was “Toy Story 3” the last great Pixar production? With the modest critical reaction to “Cars 2,” “Brave,” and “Monsters University,” it seems an entirely defensible position to take.

It’s an inarguably decent action flick but who would have guessed what it would lead to?
Blu-Ray Review: Rocky Balboa Fights His Way to ‘Undisputed Collection’
Submitted by BrianTT on November 29, 2009 - 5:01pmCHICAGO – There are very few characters as iconic as Rocky Balboa. A few images, sound bites, or even just a few notes of a song and audiences of the right age are transported back to the first time they saw the Best Picture-winning “Rocky,” the film that made Sylvester Stallone a star over three decades ago. That beloved sports film and the five sequels that followed have been collected on Blu-Ray for the first time in “Rocky: The Undisputed Collection”.
