Transformers Movie Competition
Fantastic Four 2 is due to premier on 4th July 2007, the same date as the Transformers movie. This has lead to rumours of one of the films being moved either a week forward or back. Also due around the same time is Shrek 3 (also from Dreamworks), Spiderman 3 (not as popular after the second film) and Halo from Peter Jackson. Halo is based on the X-Box computer game, and as with all computer games, it will lack any creditibiltiy as a film so expect Transformers to rule the box office and crtitical respect come the summer of 2007!
WhatDVD.Net review Headmasters
UK DVD Review website WhatDVD.Net have reviewed Metrodome’s Headmasters boxset. So if you’re not sure yet whether you want to invest in a DVD boxset that will force you to read subtitles, check out their review here.
Complete RiD DVD boxset cancelled
It’s still listed on several websites, but here’s the official word from Maximum Entertainment’s Colin Lomax on the fate of this set
“As a result of disappointing sales we have decided against continuing with the ‘complete set’ approach and have instead chosen to release the episodes on single DVD’s at a lower price point. Consequently we won’t be including any extras. We may revisit the box set approach when the new Spielberg movie is released but not for now.”
So if anyone was holding off on buying the two individual sets in favour of waiting for this, hold yourself back no longer.
