Wow. I had gotten used to Paramount releasing only one, maybe two or three Blu-ray discs a month but May is shaping up to be a wallet-killer from the studio! In addition to the four Western Blu-ray titles we told you about earlier, Paramount will also be unleashing high-def versions of four top films from their catalogue next month: the 25th Anniversary release of Tony Scott‘s Top Gun, The Firm, Le Mans and the always-entertaining Beverly Hills Cop. Perhaps this is a sign of better things to come – the end of the single-Blu-ray-release-a-month era. Perhaps 2011 is the year the studio will make a firm commitment to bring a greater bounty of its titles from years past to Blu. One can only hope.
