Demo Discs: Essential Dolby Atmos MoviesThe point of having a home theater setup is to replicate the theater experience as close as possible. These days it isn't enough to have a top of the line 1080p or 4K screen to match the visuals, you've got to have a state of the art sound system that pins you to the comfy back of your barcalounger. With electronics manufactures churning out high-end and affordable Dolby Atmos and DTS:X compatible sound systems, speakers, and sound bars, you've got to have some great movies to help you rattle the walls and force your neighbors to file a noise complaint. [Teaser]Here's a list of our favorite Dolby Atmos mixes from the last few years that you can buy right now on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray, or Blu-ray 3D.

The movie is set to hit theaters on February 14, 2019. In Dark Phoenix, the X-MEN face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey.

Now, with this family falling apart, they must find a way to unite -- not only to save Jean's soul, but to save our very planet from aliens who wish to weaponize this force and rule the galaxy. Check out the official trailer below! Dark Phoenix comes from writer/director Simon Kinberg. Kinberg also serves as a producer, along with Hutch Parker, Lauren Shuler Donner, and Todd Hallowell.

VADER IMMORTAL: A STAR WARS VR SERIES Announced for New Oculus Quest System[teaser]Darth Vader is heading to Oculus' new VR system.[/teaser] ILMxLAB -- Lucasfilm's immersive entertainment division -- has announced a new Star Wars VR series for the recently revealed Oculus Quest VR platform. Vader Immortal is an upcoming three-part virtual reality series set to debut on the system in 2019. "Our mission at ILMxLAB is to have fans 'Step Inside Our Stories,' and Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series represents a significant step forward in that ongoing quest," says Vicki Dobbs Beck, ILMxLAB Executive in Charge. "Our friends at Oculus share ILMxLAB’s ambition to bring compelling immersive narratives to life, and using Oculus' hardware, we will invite fans to experience Darth Vader as never before." The VR series will focus on Darth Vader during the time between Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. As part of the experience, fans will be able to wield a lightsaber and explore the Sith Lord's castle on the lava-world of Mustafar (as previously seen in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story). Though full details on the story have not been announced yet, the project will be part of the official Star Wars canon. David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight, Secrets of the Empire) is on board as the writer and executive producer, and the series is being developed under the guidance of the Lucasfilm Story Group. Check out the official Vader Immortal trailer below! "Whether it's hearing Darth Vader's breathing behind you and physically turning to face him in person or wielding a lightsaber with your own hands, Vader Immortal captures the ultimate wish fulfillment," says Oculus Head of Experiences Colum Slevin. "Untethered VR immerses you in this universe and places you at the center of this amazing story." The newly announced Oculus Quest is an upcoming all-in-one VR gaming system. The device features six degrees of freedom and Touch controllers, and does not require a separate PC, wires, or any external sensors. Under the hood, the Oculus Quest uses the same optics as the Oculus Go with a display resolution of 1600x1440 per eye. Likewise, the system offers upgraded built-in audio with deeper bass. Meanwhile, the unit's new Oculus Insight technology is able to track a user's position in real time through the use of four integrated ultra wide-angle sensors and computer vision algorithms. Finally, the included Touch Controllers let players interact naturally with the VR worlds around them. The Oculus Quest is set to arrive in Spring 2019 for an MSRP of $399. Over 50 titles are expected to be available for the launch. Sources: StarWars.com, Oculus 1, Oculus 2Posted Wed Sep 26, 2018 at 01:00 PM PDT by: -
FIRST BLOOD, RAMBO: FIRST BLOOD PART 2, and RAMBO III Invading 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray[teaser]The first three films in Sylvester Stallone's iconic action franchise will be getting a 4K release in November. [/teaser] In an early announcement to retailers, Lionsgate is preparing First Blood, Rambo: First Blood Part 2, and Rambo III for 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray on November 13. First Blood - He never fought a battle he couldn't win--except the conflict raging within his own soul. Academy Award®-nominee Sylvester Stallone stars as war hero John Rambo. An ex-Green Beret haunted by memories of Vietnam, he was once the perfect killing machine. Now he's searching for peace, but finds instead an over-zealous, small-town sheriff who's spoiling for a fight. All hell breaks loose when an unjustly imprisoned Rambo escapes and becomes the target of a massive manhunt. Now he must use all his cunning, combat skills and weapons training to stay alive and outwit his pursuers. Co-starring Brian Dennehy and Richard Crenna, First Blood is an explosive action-thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final, powerful frame. Rambo: First Blood Part 2 - He's back! Superstar Sylvester Stallone is John Rambo, the ultimate action hero, in this explosive Oscar®-nominated sequel to First Blood that boasts a riveting screenplay by Sylvester Stallone and James Cameron (Titanic). Although the Vietnam War is officially over, Rambo remains the perfect fighting machine. But his survival skills are tested with a vengeance on a top-secret mission that takes him back to the jungles of Vietnam in search of American POWs. For when Rambo is double-crossed, this "expendable" hero, armed with just a bow, arrows and knife, must defeat savage enemies equipped with deadly firepower. Rambo III - The battle rages on as superstar Sylvester Stallone detonates the third blast in the action-packed Rambo series. Combat has taken its toll on John Rambo (Stallone), but he has finally begun to find inner peace inside a monastery -- until his friend and mentor Col. Sam Trautman (Richard Crenna) shows up to ask for his help on a top-secret mission in Afghanistan. A war-weary Rambo declines, but when Trautman is captured, Rambo erupts into a one-man firestorm to rescue his former commanding officer and decimate the enemy. It's an intense, pulse-pounding adventure that boasts unrelenting action and suspense from start to finish! Each release will feature a 5.1 DTS-HD MA lossless soundtrack (likely the same as the previous Blu-rays) and a brand new retrospective featurette -- plus previously released bonus materials. Lionsgate made no mention of HDR in their press release, so, for now, our best guess is that all three films will graded in HDR10. If that changes, we'll let you know. Suggested list price for each 4K UHD is $22.99. You can find the latest specs for each of these titles from our 4K Blu-ray Release Schedule, where they are indexed under November 13.Posted Wed Sep 26, 2018 at 12:08 PM PDT by:
