DVD Picks: June 2004
Little late in the month,
but hey... July's best are coming to you tomorrow, though.
| June 1 | Roughnecks: Starship
Troopers Chronicles: Trackers,
Columbia
Just in time for the release
of a live action sequel to the forgettable sci-fi film, this animated take
is part of the series Roughnecks, which most consider to be a more
truthful adaptation of the classic Starship Troopers novel.
Pokemon: Jirachi Wish
Maker, Disney
Odd to see Disney's Miramax,
a generally dramatically oriented company be the distributor for this direct-to-video
feature, the seventh in the Pokemon series. Want to catch more on
this DVD? See DVD News: June 2004. Winsor McCay: The Master
Edition, Image
Not really a kids DVD, its
a classic of animation. McCay pioneered the medium, creating Gertie
the Dinosaur, the first animated character with an actual identifiable
personality. |
| June 15 | Braceface: Brace Yourself,
funimation
Sharon Spitz (Alicia Silverstone)
has brace. But these aren't just your ordinary braces, they've got special
powers, which go awry at just the wrong time.
Teacher's Pet, Disney
It's a twist on Pinocchio,
as Spot (Nathan Lane) continues on his quest to become a real boy, not
just an anthropomorphic dog.
The Simpsons: Season 4,
Fox
In this season, Homer starts
to become more of a three-dimensional character (as far as that goes),
doing more than just constantly strangling Bart. Want to win this boxed
set? See DVD News: June 2004. |
| June 29 | Garfield as Himself,
Fox
With the fat cat 3D and
in theatres for a few weeks, this DVD compiles some of the fairly memorable
animated specials from the 80s. Pass the lasagna! |
