X2: X-Men United on DVD  

With X2: X-Men United, director Brian Singer creates one of the best (if
not the best) comic book movies to date, and moves the genre one more
rung up the evolutionary ladder of cinema. Hugh Jackman rips into his
role as Wolverine (though everyone is quite good) as the X-Men face off
against William Stryker, a power mad general who is bent on the
destruction of all mutants, everywhere. This two-disc set includes
commentary by Singer as well as the screenwriters and producers, 11
deleted scenes (several of them giving much more context to the brewing
war between humans and mutants) and 11 featurettes including "The Secret
Origin of X-Men," starring Stan Lee.

IMDb MOVIE OF THE DAY

To watch Stephen Frears' film version of Dangerous Liaisons is to see
the amazing metamorphosis of a story that took innumerable turns on its
way to the screen. The tale of avaricious French aristocrats began its
life as an 18th century French epistolary novel, Les Liaisons
Dangereuses, by Choderlos De Laclos. Roger Vadim co-opted the story for
his Les Liaisons Dangereuses 1960 starring Jeanne Moreau, updating it to
the ski slopes of the Alps and the continental jet set. It wasn't until
Christopher Hampton adapted the novel for the stage in 1985 that the
world started paying close attention to the devious machinations of its
characters, ultimately culminating in the 1988 Academy Award-winning
movie, with its translated title to make it more palatable for American
audiences. Frears' adaptation stars Glenn Close and John Malkovich--both
of whom first trained for the stage--and Michelle Pfeiffer, a movie star
who never had any formal acting education. It's believed that Frears
chose Pfeiffer because her acting style--unforced and
natural--contrasted sharply with the highly studied mannerisms of Close
and Malkovich, highlighting the chasm between their rich, duplicitous
characters, the Marquise de Merteuil and Vicomte de Valcomt, and
Pfeiffer's innocent, unworldly Madame de Tourvel. - Mark Englehart

MOVIE/TV QUOTE OF THE DAY

        ATTICUS
 
If you just learn a single trick, Scout, you'll get along a lot better
with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you
consider things from his point of view...until you climb inside of his
skin and walk around in it.
