Blu-ray Picks for the Week of September 29 – The Wizard of Oz

The Wizard of Oz: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition Blu-rayWhat a huge release week filled with amazing titles! Sadly, I haven’t gotten my hands on a single Blu-ray disc yet so I can’t out-and-out recommend any of them from personal experience. But if I had to put my money on any one of these titles being a spectacular and worthwhile purchase, I’d have to bet on The Wizard of Oz: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector’s Edition.

The boxed set is packed full of goodies and discs of bonus features. (Read a full run down of The Wizard of Oz: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector’s Edition Blu-ray disc set in out previously posted article.) But never mind all that. What matters here is the transfer. And Warner has gone back and scanned the original Technicolor camera negatives at 8K resolution so it’s bound to look better than ever. If the awesome visuals and new 7.1 Dolby TrueHD surround mix aren’t enough to make you pick this up, remember that you’re also getting all of the old DVD bonus features along with over 4 hours of brand new content in a box filled with goodies like a 52 page coffee table book, a watch, reproductions of vintage material like the film budget and campaign book and so much more!

The Wizard of Oz: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector’s Edition is currently available at Amazon.com for only $51.99!
