Blu-ray Picks for the Week of December 15

I’m a day late getting my Blu-ray picks posted. Sorry ’bout that. Yesterday was pretty packed with news and with the limited time I had, I could only squeeze so many posts in. But here we are now, a little light on titles overall but with some quality Blu-ray discs nonetheless. Guess which boxed set I’m most excited about this week… …Continued…

Rome: The Complete Series Blu-ray Disc Review

I’m at a loss for words when it comes to HBO’s brilliant series Rome. I’m overwhelmed with both sadness and awe when I watch these episodes: the latter for the sheer epic wonder that is the series and the former because it’s a television show lost before its time. Thank heaven and HBO then for this incredible Blu-ray collection that honours the series in the best possible way! …Continued…

Blu-ray Picks for the Week of December 8

Oh, what a weird day today! Was awakened at 5AM by bad porch kitten, iPhone died around 7AM, almost choked on a Cinnamon Streusel Mini-Wheat at 9AM, now I’m left exhausted, out-of-touch and coughing, to wade through this weeks new Blu-ray releases. Thankfully, there aren’t a lot of quality discs out today (there is a whole pile of crap, direct to video kind of stuff I’ll just ignore) but the discs worth noting are most certainly worth rushing out to pick up. …Continued…

Star Wars The Clone Wars: The Complete Season One Blu-ray Disc Review

The animated Star Wars The Clone Wars TV show is kind of hit and miss for me. But for some reason, most of its sins wash away or are simply forgotten with the brilliant, updated high-def presentation on the Blu-ray disc. This is the MUST HAVE holiday gift for the Star Wars fan in your life! …Continued…

Star Trek: The Next Generation Motion Picture Collection Blu-ray Disc Review

I was always more of a Kirk than Picard kind of guy. That being said, I would never turn down a new episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation when I was growing up. I had overdosed on the classic brand by the time Picard and crew hit the airwaves and was just happy to watch new adventures of the starship Enterprise, whatever the version number. …Continued…

Star Trek: The Original Series Season Two Blu-ray Disc Review

Do I even have to review this for you? Is there anything I can say about the Star Trek: The Original Series Season Two Blu-ray Disc set that won’t make me sound like a broken record? In my eyes, the previous set was the best thing going for the last few months. And this follow up hits all the same notes – great looking, great sounding, great features in a near-pitch perfect comprehensive collection of the classic 60s sci-fi television series. …Continued…

Star Trek: The Original Series Season 3 Blu-ray Box-set Details, Release Date

We haven’t even posted our review for the Season 2 Blu-ray set yet (hint: IT’S AMAZING!!!) and we’ve already got details and a release date for Star Trek: The Original Series Season 3. Hitting shops on December 15, the season 3 set seems to continue the pattern of collecting the standard-def special features from the previously released DVDs while adding a whole host of brand new HD content. The list of extras we’ve got here looks great but don’t be surprised if it doesn’t grow before the release date. I’m expecting to see more BD-Live and Mobile-Blu content on the Season 3 set! …Continued…

The Prisoner: The Complete Series Details, Press Release

I’ve said it before (in many posts!) and I’ll say it again – I loves me some Prisoner! Coupled with my love for Blu-ray, you can imagine how I’m just bursting at the seams to get this new Complete Series Blu-ray boxed set from A&E. Thanks to our friends over TVShowsOnDVD.com, we’ve got this full press release, detailing all the goodness that was Patrick McGoohan’s 17 episode long baby.

I can’t get over this. Look at the goodies we’re getting here: a feature length documentary, commentary tracks, remastered episodes! Hell, I’d shell out for this set for any ONE of those features! Read on for all the juicy details: …Continued…

Fringe: The Complete First Season Blu-ray Disc Review

Okay, I love this show. It may have taken damn-near the whole season to win me over completely, but they’ve got me now. I had been following it casually, checking out episodes whenever it was convenient. But now, having seen it all to the end, I have to admit that I won’t be waiting until next September to see season 2 on Blu-ray. I’ll be watching new episodes on TV every week. I’m now a Fringe-aholic. …Continued…
