The Great Video Sell Off continued
The Great Video Sell Off continued:
In the continuation of the great VHS sell off I picked up some $2 tapes at Hollywood Video last Friday. Buba Hotep (they fake the hieroglyphs but a good film anyway) Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer (What Phil did after Film Roman) and Samurai Jack.
Now Samurai Jack is a good bit of groundbreaking animation. Okay, he owes a debt to John Hubley and Rooty Toot Toot, but who doesn't? And man, he takes it so much further. Split screen never works but he makes it work. I forgot how good this is. Good to have it in the collection. Hit the video stores, the good stuff is going fast.
