Nominated for 11 Oscars including Best Picture and Best Actress for Emma Stone,

Yorgos Lanthimos' latest darkly comedic creation comes to Blu-ray on March 12th - a 4K Digital option on Feb 27th. 

In another frustrating and all-too-common occurrence for physical media collectors, the 4K release of Poor Things will be a digital-only release with only a 1080p option on disc. I guess considering a movie like Barbarian still doesn't have a disc release we should be somewhat grateful, but a film this visually exuberant demands the bigger better format. So it goes. 

Poor Things - Blu-ray

This one should be up for pre-order soon, but check out the press release below for all the gory details.

Happy Collecting!

Fans who missed out on Lionsgate big SteelBook set of all five films (or any of the previous 4k UHD releases for that matter) can pick up the story from the beginning and the end with First Blood and Rambo: Last Blood on April 2nd exclusively available at Walmart

42 years ago Sylvester Stallone started an action-packed franchise centering on the wayward disenfranchised Vietnam War veteran John Rambo. Five years ago, he effectively wrapped up John Rambo's journey with the decent but underwhelming Rambo: Last Blood. Now Lionsgate looks to be repurposing some discs and SteelBooks for new solo-film releases to start the fourth month of the year. If you didn't pick up the Best Buy SteelBook set, these individual versions look like the exact same SteelBooks only now with Lionsgate's standard plastic slipcover to give the case a little visual enhancement. And judging by the press releases for each set, we're getting the same discs as before. Now that's fine for First Blood, that's still a great disc, but I was really hoping we'd see the longer and better cut of Rambo: Last Blood finally make a disc appearance (and I don't mean the slightly longer German version). The much better-paced and longer Director's Cut appears to remain a streaming-only viewing option. We have reached out for verification on that point. So far, only First Blood is up for pre-order but we expect Last Blood to go up any time now.
