Blu-ray Highlights for December 26th, 2012 – At a Loss for… Umm, You Know…

Welcome back from the holiday! I guess the Mayans were wrong about the end of the world happening on Friday, huh? Did y’all get everything you wanted from Santa (or Hanukkah Harry) this year? If not… well, unfortunately there’s not much new to look at today. It’s the day after Christmas, and the only people going out to stores are those returning or exchanging unwanted gifts. The home video studios know this, and haven’t bothered to schedule much of anything for release this week. This will be a pretty short post, but for the sake of thoroughness, I felt that I should fill you in on the four (yes, only four!) new titles available on Blu-ray, just in case a few of you out there happen to be fans.

Weekend Roundtable: Movies You Regret Buying

Weekend Roundtable: Movies You Regret Buying

We’ve all done it. If you collect movies on DVD or Blu-ray, you’ve undoubtedly purchased a disc at some point that you later regretted. Perhaps it was a blind-buy that you expected to like, only to discover that you hated it. Perhaps you even bought the movie knowing that you didn’t like it, but needed to own it for collectible purposes (or because you wanted to watch the bonus features). In today’s Roundtable, we share our shame.

Full Metal Jackets: Night of the Living Steel

Full Metal Jackets: Night of the Living Steel

I make no excuses for my fondness for the ‘Resident Evil’ franchise. Intellectual masterpieces, these movies are not, but Milla Jovovich in a tight leather outfit killing zombies is a recipe for success in my book, no matter how many times she does it. If you’re a fan who, like me, has been collecting the SteelBook Blu-ray editions from Canada, you’ll be glad to know that Future Shop will continue the series with a Steelie for the latest entry, ‘Resident Evil: Retribution‘. We can’t have a mis-matched collection on our shelves, now can we?
