Grab some popcorn and find your favorite film!

Every year Leonard Maltin does a movie guide as a reference or a companion guide to help film fans find information about their favorite pictures. What makes the guide fun and quick is the information listed about the availability on DVD, video, laserdisc or unreleased to home video movies, this helps for hard core collectors trying to find their favorite film. Although the guide is missing some classic films, the book contains more than 12,000 DVD and 12,000 video listings.
I am a big fan of contributing writer Bill Warren and I like Maltin’s guides but in a digital age
is there a need for this book? I would argue there is a need for the book from a speed and
accessibility point of view. In the introduction of the paperback Maltin makes a point that there
is a trend to bash anything not digital, and I agree with his point. There is no reason why a
book and a webpage can’t coexist and be functional or enjoyable. This guide is the perfect
paperback to keep at a quick reach to find answers to film availability on DVD.  I love IMDB
but why not have the guide as well. I like the feel of paper but I really like the quick accessibility to any film without the need for a wifi signal. The 2012  movie guide is available now.
