STORY: JIMMY HERNANDEZ
Friendship (2025) Rated R - 1hr 41min Fans of “I Think You Should Leave” on Netflix will feel right at home with Craig Watterman (Tim Robinson), a marketing exec who leaves you dumbfounded with his awkward antics and lack of social decorum. When Craig meets his new neighbor Austin (played by Paul Rudd), his world flips on its axis as we are treated to a madcap deconstruction of male friendship and its baggage, or lack thereof. Directed by film newcomer Andrew DeYoung, this glance into the misleading and melancholy world of being a man with friends may surprise you. This new comedy is available now on Blu-Ray, and will simulcast its premiere on HBO and HBO Max on Friday, September 6th at 8pm ET.
Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) Rated G - 1hr 25min The world-famous British duo of Wallace and Gromit, originally made famous on television, make waves in their feature film debut, celebrating its 20th anniversary. Nick Park’s character-driven formula expands wonderfully to the feature film format, giving lovers of the iconic team more action and hilarity, as a thrilling love-letter to early horror is written. A perfect family film to introduce the art of stop-motion animation this Halloween season. Now available on Blu-Ray and for rent on your favorite digital platform.
Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride (2005) Rated PG - 1hr 17min This spooky (and often terrifying) animated feature from stop-motion legend Tim Burton is a perfect introduction to gothic horror, a genre many directors such as Guillermo del Toro have made famous in the years following Corpse Bride’s release. Full of lovable characters and somber performances from Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham-Carter, this often forgotten release was a passion project of Burton amidst his blockbuster attempts throughout the 2000s. This film is getting a very special 20th anniversary 4K remaster and steelbook release, arriving Tuesday, September 23rd, 2025. The film is also returning to theaters beginning Friday, October 10th.
