I have mixed the UK and American releases together.

I love old classic black and white horror movies so i am hoping the Wolfman with it's excellent cast turns out to be a very good movie. The release kept being put back and much editing has been done to the film so it's possible it may turn out to be more of a turkey than a wolf.

I look forward to seeing Sandra Bullock return to fine acting form in The Blind Side and i do not mind American Football if the story is strong and this film has strong word of mouth and was a surprise sleeper hit in America.

I mention The Hole since it is directed by none other than Joe Dante who has been quiet for a long time and he directed one of my favourite werewolf horror movies from the eighties, that movie was The Howling. Dante is of course also responsible for Gremlins and The Burbs.

Clint Eastwood has been on great form for a number of years now and Invictus looks interesting especially if they can avoid going too far into sentimental sugary territory.

The plot of Legion reminds me of The Prophecy which is a movie i enjoyed from many years back. I have not seen the trailer though and only read the plot line so it's probably nothing like that film. I think Highlanders original concept was later revised and made into The Prophecy albeit on a much lower budget and a drastically changed script.

To Live and Die in L.A. was delayed from a few years back but is finally being released in America on Blu Ray in February. This is a fine film with a catchy music score and is grittier than most of the films made in the eighties, the car chase scene is still entertaining today and thank god it's real with no CGI to be seen anywhere.

Hard Rain stars Christian Slater and Morgan Freeman and our very own Minnie Driver. I always liked this movie and i hope the transfer is up to scratch. Cinematographer Mikael Saloman directed this movie and it should look excellent on Blu Ray. ( if they don't use an old master )

I look forward to picking up some more classic Disney with the original Fantasia and it's sequel Fantasia 2000 hitting Blu Ray in early March. I imagine Fantasia will still be censored due to political correctness but the music score should sound better than ever.

I like Fantasia 2000 a lot and think many of the sequences work very well. My favourite Disney film Beauty and the Beast hits Blu Ray in October of this year. I'm hoping my second favourite The Lion King is released in 2011

::SITE UPDATE::

Fantasia/Fantasia 2000 did not get a March 2010 release, latest news is Dec 2010 in the UK.

Sandra Bullock was born on the 26th of July 1964 in Arlington, Virginia, USA.

Sandra's career is once again on a high thanks to box office hit The Blind Side in which Sandra puts in a wonderful dramatic performance.

Miss Bullock won a well deserved Oscar for her great acting in The Blind Side.

Sandra was thirty years old when her movie career took off with the 1994 sleeper hit Speed.

She followed up her part in Speed with roles in While You Were Sleeping, The Net and A Time To Kill. She also made a few misfires such as the sequel to Speed that Keanu Reeves turned down and Sandra later admitted was a mistake to make.

Her star sign is Leo.

Her performance in Miss Congeniality ensured her star status and she would re-unite with her Speed co-star in The Lake House. To this day Sandra remains good friends with Keanu.

Sandra was a cheerleader in high school and can speak fluent German.

She enjoys drinking Heineken which most people will tell you tastes like piss.

Known to be very generous Sandra donated $1m dollars after the Haiti earthquake disaster.

Read some fabulous Sandra Bullock quotes below.

Fame means when your computer modem is broken, the repair guy comes out to your house a little faster.

Movie sex scenes are never romantic, and you're never swept off your feet. It's always very technical….I'm counting the beats: Okay, we're supposed to kiss for two beats, then I say my line, then they want another kiss for four beats. I'm going, One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three and break. It's like choreography. Sometimes you have actors who feel it's their job to get as far down into your throat as possible. You're like, Excuse me, I like you, but not that much.

Everyone told me to pass on Speed because it was a bus movie.

On Speed 2: Cruise Control. That was a mistake but, in retrospect, how are you supposed to know?

I don't like to talk about personal things. And by keeping it private, you have a better shot at a healthy relationship. I learned at a young age that there are certain things you just don't talk about.

Why do you need one? I don't understand why there needs to be a love interest to make women go see a film. I think society sort of makes us feel that way – that if you don't have a guy, you're worthless.
