Introduction and Collection Overview
00:00:05
Speaker
What is going on guys? Welcome to part two of my Blu-ray collection. And this is part two, the final part. As I told you, I don't have many. I'm still growing my collection.
00:00:15
Speaker
I ended at H, I believe, the hitman's bodyguard. So now we're going J to Z. I don't have any Zs, but we're starting at J.
Iconic Movies and Series Discussions
00:00:26
Speaker
So this one is a fan favorite for me anyway, and it's a shame that this is what got me into the View Askewniverse, and now I'm actually rewatching or watching for the first time all of them.
00:00:37
Speaker
But Jay and Silent Bob, this movie is hilarious. And this was the first Kevin Smith movie I watched. And two weeks ago, I watched Clark. So i'm I'm getting into that universe. And in two weeks, I'm watching Mallrats. So, so funny, especially Mark Hamill as Cockknocker. Oh, my God. That was out of control.
00:01:00
Speaker
But love Jay and Silent Bob. ah do not own the reboot yet. Next, since this is a not a so trilogy, but a quadrilogy, I'm just going to add them all.
00:01:12
Speaker
John Wick's. Another series that I did not start when it came out in the movies, I believe I watched John Wick 1. one when two was in theaters, I believe.
00:01:25
Speaker
And I didn't get to catch one until John Wick 3 in the theater. So three and four, I watched in the theaters one and two I watched on Blu-ray and i love Keanu Reeves. I think everyone loves Keanu Reeves does his thing in this. he He hones his craft. He trained so hard for these that it kind of looks real be honest, but um Obviously, the sad part is how it all starts with the the poor little pup, but loving my John Wicks.
00:01:55
Speaker
Next, this technically is a trilogy and one from 90s, but if you have a Blu-ray collection or a 4K collection, you have to have the original Jurassic Park.
00:02:08
Speaker
It started it all. To me, this is one of the few movies that I could say is a masterpiece. It's just like the first of its kind.
00:02:19
Speaker
The visual effects were amazing. They still hold up today. and i don't have to talk too much about it because I believe everyone feels that Jurassic Park is a great movie. So I had to have Jurassic Park in my collection, which leads me to the worlds.
00:02:35
Speaker
So I have Jurassic World, I have Fallen Kingdom, and have Dominion
00:02:43
Speaker
I actually love the world series. know a lot of people don't. It's a little bit different. The first series was more like these dinosaurs are killers and they're dangerous.
00:02:55
Speaker
And to me, the world series was kind of like, we he need to sympathize with them and be like, treat them better. Like Chris Pratt's character was training raptors. Like he loved them. He cared for them.
00:03:07
Speaker
So it was a little different spin. But also, I have yet to watch Dominion. And I know this is the one a lot of people really hate. But I'll judge for myself once I watch it. Okay.
00:03:18
Speaker
Next, we have Kingsman, The Secret Service. Another really fun movie. Action-packed. I've watched both of these. I only own Secret Service. I don't own... What were the other one The Golden Circle.
00:03:32
Speaker
um Yeah, it hooked me as soon as I watched it. add to I saw a Golden Circle in the theater and then I think I saw King's Men, the prequel on an airplane, which was also pretty good.
00:03:43
Speaker
But I love action and i feel like this is another movie that a lot of people liked and maybe didn't like the sequels all that much, but I really hope we get a third. But as of now, it doesn't look like we will.
00:03:56
Speaker
All right, what's next What to say about the Matrix?
Modern Classics and Reflections
00:04:00
Speaker
There's nothing to really say about the Matrix. It's a ah great trilogy. Again, this is another one of those things where they created a fourth movie, Resurrections, which a lot of people just don't like.
00:04:13
Speaker
And it's one of the few, don't want to say cash grab because you make a movie to make money, but Resurrections is one of the few movies where I was watching it and I was like, Was the Matrix really this meta? Because the fourth one is kind of meta.
00:04:28
Speaker
You could kind of tell what they're trying to do there. But it was enjoyable. Was it as good as the first three? Probably not. But I love the Matrix. All right, here's another movie.
00:04:40
Speaker
And I've watched all of these. Maze Runner. So this one has Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials. I believe there's three of these movies. Funny thing is, I remember enjoying them. I don't remember what the hell happened in them.
00:04:52
Speaker
But I did like them. So that's kind of crazy. Will I go back and rewatch them? Probably not. But I have it. And, um you know, if the kind assassin ever wants to watch Maze Runner, at least I have the first two.
00:05:05
Speaker
Next up, I might get a lot of hate for this one. i have not watched all the Mission Impossibles, but Fallout is by far my favorite from the ones that I have watched. I have seen Den Reckoning. ah What was that, like four years ago?
00:05:19
Speaker
But Henry Cavill is what got me to watch this movie, and he was great in it. And I hope they, don't really have to retcon it. It's an action movie. You could say he survived. I really want to see Henry Cavill back in Mission Impossible.
00:05:33
Speaker
And hopefully they kill off Tom Cruise's character and they could start fresh. Mission Impossible. Okay, back-to-back hate I'm going to get because this is another critically acclaimed movie.
00:05:47
Speaker
Oppenheimer, i have it in 4K. I still haven't watched this. I purchased this when it came out. Haven't got a chance to watch it. But from Barbenheimer, I have watched Barbie.
00:05:59
Speaker
Just got to complete it. So we got that one right there. right another movie that i watched recently and i should have watched it when i was younger or when it first came out the predator awesome action-packed movie again schwarzenegger's great in it silly it's like movies like this from the 80s don't want to say it's bad but i feel like if you make a movie like this now People just will pan it because they expect so much more. Movies aren't allowed to just be fun, crazy, gory, action-packed anymore.
00:06:37
Speaker
So anyways, again, Predator. No one's had anything bad to say about Predator, I don't think. And if you haven't watched Prey on Hulu, watch that. That deserves a freaking ah sequel or something. That was good.
00:06:51
Speaker
Next up, another favorite. This one I have watched when I was a kid. think everyone as a child or like an early teen has watched The Sandlot. Funny, hilarious, coming of age. I played baseball, so I know i know everything about sandlots and getting your friends together to play baseball.
00:07:12
Speaker
Losing a ball, me, it was like down a drain. But here, you know, they had beasts, that giant dog that kind of ate all their balls. Then, of course, trying to use a Babe Ruth sign baseball. That was crazy smalls, crazy.
00:07:27
Speaker
Next up, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. This is a movie that I enjoyed. Most of these movies I enjoyed. I wouldn't have bought them otherwise, but Scott Pilgrim was really good.
00:07:38
Speaker
And it kind of made me wish that I had read the comics, all the graphic novels before I watched the movie. It was just so enjoyable. and I know they have been animated I haven't watched that yet but um if they created a sequel or came out with a sequel of Scott Pilgrim 2 I would definitely watch it as long as I have all the cast back for sure but I love this movie I only watched it once okay put this on the list of movies that I love that I've watched and I don't remember a lot about it but Sicario it was a really good movie I did watch the sequel
00:08:17
Speaker
in the theaters, enjoyed that. I just enjoy action movies, I guess, in general. And like, you can't go wrong with Benicio del Toro, right? Can you? No, I don't think you can. Even if he gets 10 minutes in a movie or show, you always choose the scenery. But Sicario is a good one. I have to get the sequel on 4K though.
00:08:35
Speaker
I know I did like it and I and think I want to rewatch those.
Cult Favorites and Personal Experiences
00:08:40
Speaker
Okay, next is what I consider the best video game movie of all time.
00:08:46
Speaker
So far, a lot of people will probably say Sonic because it has a trilogy. I personally liked Super Mario Brothers more. I grew up with both video games, though I did like the Sonic game more, but I think they did a good job in this game.
00:09:05
Speaker
First Pratt was fine to me. um It was good. I liked it. I want more. I hope to see sequel. Like they would be crazy not to capitalize on how much money that made.
00:09:17
Speaker
And, you know, some people liked it. Some people didn't. But I think the majority were fine with it and kids probably loved it. Okay, next up is another trilogy.
00:09:28
Speaker
This is the Cornetto trilogy, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, World's End. Another great series of movies. And there's a fun fact about this. Before I moved to California, my friends out here took me to this, like movies in a cemetery.
00:09:44
Speaker
And it was Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, I remember, because World's End was about to come out. And they did this like, thing where it was, oh, you get chosen and you can do an obstacle course and you can win tickets to the to the new movie, World's End.
00:10:00
Speaker
i had no idea what I was doing and I actually won the obstacle course and all of the fans were kind of pissed because i didn't I didn't get the references. So, all right.
00:10:11
Speaker
This one, might get a little hate for this one, but I think this is my favorite animated movie in the past couple of years. It's not Spider-Verse. It is Newton Mayhem. I am Ninja Turtle fan before I'm like a superhero fan. I've loved the Ninja Turtles since I was a kid.
00:10:31
Speaker
As much as I love that cartoon, they didn't seem like teenagers. Michael Bay ones didn't seem like teenagers. But the cast in this were kids, I believe, and these turtles acted like teenagers.
00:10:44
Speaker
And I love the art style. So good. It's amazing. Love that movie. Cannot wait for a sequel. And I'm watching the series as well, which is pretty good. The art style is not as good, but I doubt they have the budget for that.
00:11:00
Speaker
What do we have here? Another one, but we can't say much about Terminator 2, Judgment Day, classic, great movie. It's a cliche Blu-ray that to own.
00:11:11
Speaker
Everyone should probably own this one. Again, it's another one of those movies, early 90s, where you watch it today and the CGI and visual effects absolutely hold up.
00:11:23
Speaker
As it did, well i don't know, what is it 30 years now, 30 years ago, close to it. It's just so good. And again, Arnold, look at this back to back Arnold. So here's another movie I haven't watched in a long, long time. I know they've rebooted it, but total recall I own on 4k. This one, i think I purchased cause it was like five bucks at best buy when they were still selling Blu-rays and a good one ah watched it a long time ago i don't remember a lot about it but five bucks why not and last but not least i think this might be the movie the earliest movie i've ever watched that i actually remember seeing transformers the movie and this copy i think i got in ireland or scotland when i was on vacation there was like a swap meet and they were just selling random stuff and they have this
00:12:18
Speaker
like two bucks so i had to take it home it's like version don't even know what it is version so i had to convert it i have it on digital but transformers the movie That's a good one.
00:12:33
Speaker
And i did actually enjoy the Michael Bay Transformer movies because when they came out, all I really wanted was to see huge Transformers transforming and causing damage and having action.
00:12:46
Speaker
That's all I wanted. The only disappointing part for me was that they didn't use the original cars like Bumblebee as a Camaro. m You know, they updated it, but I would have liked it to be more of how they did Bumblebee, that movie, but...
00:13:00
Speaker
There is my collection. It's over. That's it. That's all the DVDs that I have at this moment, but I will be adding to it. And again, if you watch this, let me know what you think of my collection so far. Let me know what I should add to it. It's just that i really did love going to Best Buy to purchase my Blu-rays.
00:13:18
Speaker
like look through them, hold them, like make sure the case isn't broken. i don't know. There's not that many places that actually sell Blu-rays anymore. Like everything is online. Even Target got rid of them.
00:13:30
Speaker
What can you do? It's still online. So I have no excuses. got to update my collection and I will. And you know, maybe once I purchase new ones, I'll do shorts. Like I just got this Blu-ray today. This is the one. Did I see it? Did
Conclusion and Viewer Engagement
