I got half a dozen titles today...



Aeon Flux is a title that seemed to get panned by everybody but I decided to take a chance with it since a few here said they liked it.  And I do like Charlize Theron a lot.  I see Charlize is even included in an audio commentary in this set so that will be nice.  And Frances McDormand, another actress I like, is also in this.



Hancock is another movie I never really expected to get.  But when I heard Charlize Theron was also in this, I decided to take a chance...a Charlize Theron Blind Buy Double-Feature as it were!



The Brave One is the third one I got used and cheaply.  This is one of the few Jodie Foster films of the last 20 years I didn't have until now.  I was actually a bit tired of her doing nothing but thrillers so I decided enough was enough and skipped this one...then I heard it was really good so I finally broke down and bought a copy...



Yuma is a TV movie from around 1970...it stars Clint Walker so I wonder if this will seem like a color feature film version of Cheyenne, the series he's best known for?  Probably not but it was a thought.  This has a good cast...besides Walker, there's Barry Sullivan, Kathryn Hays, Edgar Buchanan and Peter Mark Richman.  Directed by Ted Post who had directed Hang 'Em High two years before this film.





Finally we have Darn Good Westerns, Volumes 1 and 2.  Each volume contains no less than 6 feature films.  You're not going to find the likes of Stagecoach, The Outlaw Josey Wales and High Noon here...but fast-moving enjoyable oaters...hopefully.  Volume One contains (among others) Hellgate, Panhandle and Wildfire: The Story of a Horse (classics all I imagine!) while Volume Two's offerings include Shotgun, Outlaw Women and Four Fast Guns.  Woo-hoo!

I always was a bit curios about Aeon Flux myself.

Not a bad compromise ;D
It's a fun little movie and Ally Sheedy, as usual, looks great in it. Even the second one with Cynthia Gibb isn't too bad, I can watch a really bad hockey film like Youngblood because of her...

Not a bad compromise? The ratio of just how much better Short Circuit is than any Saw move is actually impossible to calculate...
