Oh geez. I usually like to pick a top disc release every week. I usually like to be able to recommend a single title for you to pick up, you know, if you’ve got a tight budget, or just want to see the best of the best. But I can’t really do it this week. There are too many brilliant Blu-ray discs out this week! I’ll highlight a few of them but please comb through the whole list. There’s something for everyone here! …Continued…

I’m happy to see that Sony is bringing this to the UK so soon. I only hope we’ll see it on this side of the Atlantic before the new year. Details of the Blu-ray disc release below: …Continued…
