After a fairly barren couple of months, November sees the release of some of the biggest movies of 2009, making this one of the strongest release schedules ever seen.
Among the new releases to be seen this month are family comedy Night At The Museum 2 starring Ben Stiller and Amy Adams,
Star Trek 2009 with Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto, Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen with Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox reprising their roles, and the latest Sacha Baron Cohen comedy Bruno which is guaranteed to amuse and annoy – and possible both at the same time!
Other notable releases this month are Michael Mann’s – famous for directing the classic thriller Heat – gangster feature Public Enemies with Johnny Depp in the role of the notorious John Dillinger being pursued by the dogged investigator Melvin Purves, played by Christian Bale, who also stars in the action movie Terminator: Salvation alongside Sam Worthington.
Rom-com fans are well served this month with the timely release of the mega-hit Four Christmases starring Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn,
together with the Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds hit The Proposal. Other comedies for November include Year One with Jack Black and Michael Cera and Last Chance Harvey with the excellent Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson.
As always at this time of year family films are to the fore and this November is no exception with the release of two of the most successful family films of the year, Ice Age 3 – Dawn Of The Dinosaurs,
and G-Force, a film that features Bill Nighy, Nicholas Cage, Penelope Cruz and a bunch of very clever guinea pigs.
And thanks to our new Loyalty Card offer (see page 2 for details) you can rent these titles for as little as £2.50 each – and even get some of them for free!
Ann
Following her operation to remove ovarian cancer, Ann is recovering well and expects to begin chemotherapy in early November. She would like to extend her grateful thanks to all of you who have sent her cards and best wishes, they have cheered her tremendously. If any of you would like to send her a card please just drop it into the shop and we will make sure that she gets it straight away. We expect the chemotherapy to be somewhat unpleasant but Ann is approaching the whole situation bravely and positively and we hope that there will be a positive outcome. Ann was very sensible in visiting her GP as soon as she didn’t feel well, and she now says that she feels so much better but didn’t realise just how unwell she was. The important thing was to get advice quickly - in Ann’s case, from feeling unwell to undergoing the operation was a little over seven weeks - and so hopefully the cancer has been dealt with in good time. We will keep you informed as to how she is progressing over the coming months.
Buying
a DVD player
Many
of you will be considering purchasing a DVD. Great idea,
as the picture and sound quality is infinitely superior to video. However,
we would caution you that not all DVD movies will play properly on a budget
priced machine (£150 or less). We would advise you to consider quality
makes such as Sony, Sanyo, JVC, etc, to get the best results from the
hundreds of titles that we have for rental.
