Blu-ray collectors generally dread the so-called “double dip,” when a studio reissues a title previously released on the format in hopes of convincing fans to buy yet another copy. To justify this, the new disc had better offer either compelling new content or a significant improvement in quality over the older edition. This week, Sony launches a whole new product line of high-def reissues that have left many Blu-ray shoppers confused and skeptical. Will you bite?

This is a pretty good week to be a Tom Cruise fan. The actor’s new sci-fi flick ‘Oblivion’ is still doing well in theaters, and a movie of his from last year (that you probably haven’t seen) hits video on Tuesday. Also new on Blu-ray, we have an interesting assortment of horror, classics, musicals, guilty pleasures, forgotten treasures and existential mystery. Surely, there must be something in here for you?

At this point, the prospects of another ‘X-Files’ movie seem pretty remote. Fans continue to cross their fingers and hope that one day Fox will shell out the money for a full high-definition reconstruction (a la what CBS is doing for ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation’) and Blu-ray release of the TV series. Whether that will ever happen is anyone’s guess. In the meantime, we have only the Blu-ray releases of the two feature films to content ourselves with. However much of an intersection there may be between ‘X-Files’ fans and SteelBook collectors, UK retailer Zavvi hopes to serve that niche with a metal case repackaging of the movie double-bill.

We were all set to give away another, slightly older Blu-ray today when word came in late last night that we have a spare copy of this year’s Best Picture nominee ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ available for a contest prize. Since this seemed a little more timely and relevant, I decided to do a last-minute substitution and offer this one up for grabs instead. If there’s any interest in a ‘Gangster Squad’ contest, let me know and I may run that at a later date. In the meantime, don’t miss your chance to take home Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence in all their high-def glory.
