“Winter is coming,” goes an oft-repeated phrase in one of last year’s most popular TV shows. Judging by that snowstorm we had in Boston last week, winter is unmistakably already here. It’s a good thing, then, that this week’s Blu-ray lineup is ready to heat things up. In great contrast to last week’s slowdown, we...
