DVD Tuesday: The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Scooby-Doo! Frankencreepy

The Amazing Spider-Man 2




I will be picking this up because I thought this movie was great. Of course they made a few changes from the comic book (still no J. Jonah Jameson) but the changes didn't ruin the movie at all. This sequel got a lot of mixed reviews but I enjoyed it and as a Spider-Man fan it didn't disappoint.


Description:

We've always known that Spider-Man's most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.

It's great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there's no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.



Scooby-Doo! Frankencreepy


Depending where you shop this movie was either available last Tuesday at Walmart or available everywhere else today. I actually thought it was a misprint in the sales paper but it turned out not to be.

I'm a Scooby-Doo fan and have seen all the animated movies, so far I have yet to see a bad one. Looking forward to seeing this.


Description:

Scooby-Doo and those "meddling kids" Shaggy, Fred, Daphne and Velma are back in this all-new original movie!

Velma discovers she's inherited her great-great-uncle Dr. Von Dinkenstein's cursed castle in the terrifying town of Transylania...Pennsylvania, that is. Just when the gang persuades Velma to go claim her in heritance, the ghost of Von Dinkenstein Castle blows up the Mystery Machine as a warning!

Now the crew must spring back into action, but this time it's personal! Who's responsible for the Von Dinkenstein monster? what family secret has Velma been hiding? Will Fred recover from the loss of his beloved Mystery Machine? Can any helpless snack survive Scooby and Shaggy's monster-sized appetites? This Scooby-Doo adventures has enough spooky fun to make the whole family come alive!
