Posted on 2026/08/08 by James

Hollywood Records and Searchlight Pictures release today Super Troopers 3—Original Motion Picture Soundtrack featuring music by Emmy-winning and Grammy-nominated composer duo Leo Birenberg and Zach Robinson (Weird: The Al Yankovic Story). The metal-inflected guitar and sitar-soaked score provides an exhilarating and irreverent backdrop to the third installment of the cult classic comedy franchise by the Black Lizard team. The Searchlight Pictures film is in theaters now.

Note Birenberg & Robinson: “As pre-teens, Super Troopers was the most forbidden of fruits. Now that we’re adults (who don’t need our parents’ permission), we are so proud to have scored the latest installment of this classic franchise. Jay, Kevin, and the rest of the Broken Lizard team are amazing collaborators, and we can’t wait for everyone to hear the score.”

Equipment: Available Now from Hallmark the Aliens™ UD-4L “Cheyenne” Dropship Keepsake Ornament

Posted on 2026/08/07 by James

Everyone has something that they are interested in; sports, motorcycles, construction equipment, Barbie, Disney…the list could go on for a while. What is surprising to me is that Hallmark probably has a Keepsake Ornament for your interest, no matter what it is. I was pleasantly surprised when Hallmark started to make Star Trek ornaments in the 1990’s, but what really shocked me is when Hallmark produced ornaments for the Alien franchise. It wasn’t just a one and done, there have been several xenomorphs, the power loader and now this year Hallmark has released the dropship from James Cameron’s Aliens.

Equipment: Hallmark has Released U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 G Metal Keepsake Ornament

Posted on 2026/08/07 by James

Hallmark has been producing Star Trek Keepsake ornaments for 35 years. The first ornament was the original U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 which was fitting. Over the years Star Trek has been represented many times with multiple ships being released, along with ornaments of the characters and insignias. I can’t believe that I have been a collector that long.

This year there are 3 different ships available at Hallmark Gold Crown stores, the U.S.S. Cerritos from Star Trek: Lower Decks, the Galileo 7 from the episode of the same name and the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 G from Star Trek: Picard. The Enterprise G is the one we will be reviewing.

Spider-Man is the greatest superhero of all time. SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY is the character, arguably, at his very best. Michael’s sonic brilliance is on full display here, elegantly guiding ol’ webhead into a new era of maturity and heroism. The score masterfully blends swells of colossal orchestration with lush, melancholic synths, weaving a continuity that complements Peter Parker’s journey over the last nine years, while boldly pushing him into a brand new phase of life as Spider-Man.
