Dogtown and Z-Boys (Blu-ray Review)
January 6th, 2010 admin
A ‘board and a Blu; what could be better? There were no goals, there were no aspirations . Few sports have enjoyed such a rapid ascent in popularity as skateboarding. Seemingly every neighborhood, every playground, every school, every church has their own community of skaters that come together for a shared love of the thrill, the rush of adrenaline, the hope of conquering that half pipe.

Twitter - www.twitter.com Audio Blog - zaranyzerak.tumblr.com Friday Night Chatroom - http Well now. THIS is long overdue! I was getting tired of people leaving comments on my old screenshot comparison vid complaining that it was only 720p. Well kiddies, YouTube only HAD 720p at the time that video was made, and didn't introduce 1080p until a few months after it was posted. If I could go back in time and change things I would. Instead, I decided to do the next best thing and put together this EPIC updated edition for you! Not only is this baby FULL 1080p, and includes shots from several MORE movies that weren't in the previous vid (with a special focus on "older" movies), but it also contains a full rippin' techno score by yours truly. Enjoy!

Sony has released three pretty stellar documentaries on Blu-ray in the last month. Here’s a quick look at each one… IT MIGHT GET LOUD (2008, Blu-ray released December 22, 2009 – MSRP $37.95) A lot of my pals went to see It Might Get Loud in the theatre a few months ago when it was released.

Without Canadian rockers Rush progressive rock would have been a very different animal.

Entire rock sub-genres probably would have not existed. Rush was formed...

Highly Recommended The Series: You know, national parks and engrossing viewing aren’t two terms that are often coined together but put in the more than capable hands of documentary filmmaker extraordinaire Ken Burns they make for effective, if unlikely, bedfellows.
