‘Amazing Spider-Man 2’ Blu-Ray Set Puts Electro’s Head On Your Movie Shelf

My fiancé originally balked when I told her I was pre-purchasing the Blu-ray sequel to a wholly unnecessary reboot of a 10 year-old film sight unseen, but when I carefully explained to her it came ensconced in the veiny blue noggin of one-time Oscar winner and rap impressario Jamie Foxx, she seemed to slowly come around to the idea… if her exaggerated eye-roll and exasperated, whole-body sigh was as ironic as I’m assuming it was.

For years, I have longed for a DVD case that didn’t just scream “practical.” I wanted a case that was unique, unreasonably space-occupying, and could handily double as the finishing touch to my wedding cake. At last, I have found such a case!

So now that beautifully crooked smile and 1,000 yard stare will forever command a welcome place in the living space of our home, and will handed down for generations within our family bloodline, along with the 5-disc special edition of ‘Philomena’ encased in a rubbery bust of Judi Dench, and the ‘Mars Needs Moms’ limited edition Blu-ray presented in the form of a threatening debt collector’s final notice.

That makes me laugh.
