You know it’s a massive week of important Blu-ray releases when there are two new titles from Criterion and neither is in the number one position on our Top 5 list! Shocking! We’ve had some big weeks lately but this might just be the most incredible one of all. Hope you’ve been saving up. …Continued…

By Brenden ⋅ October 24, 2010 ⋅ One comment

I can hardly believe it but I’ll finally get to watch Scott Pilgrim vs. The World in just over a couple of weeks! It sure has been a long time coming for this writer who managed to miss every single opportunity to see it in the theatre over the last few months since its release. Thankfully, the Blu-ray hits shops on November 9th and I can’t hardly wait! …Continued…

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Blu-ray officially announced

By Brenden ⋅ October 2, 2010 ⋅ 3 comments

Guess what? That’s right – I still haven’t seen the Scott Pilgrim film. Such is the life of a guy pulling double duty at the office during the day, musician in a band by night and Blu-ray reviewer in the spaces between. Sigh… Nevertheless, this Blu-ray disc looks to be something to get excited about – far more feature-rich than the rumours made it out to be. So, maybe, if the stars align, if everything is in its right place, I might just get a chance to see Scott Pilgrim when it comes to Blu-ray on November 9th. Here’s hoping… …Continued…

You’ll never believe it if I tell you but I still haven’t gotten a chance to see Scott Pilgrim yet. Yeah, I know. It’s almost too late. But as I prepare myself to completely miss out on the big-screen experience, Bleeding Cool has whet my appetite for the eventual Blu-ray release of the film with their report detailing some of the special features we’re likely to see on the disc. Read on! …Continued…

Here’s a great way to lead into the weekend – a sneak peek at one of the bonus features from the upcoming Back To The Future: 25th Anniversary Trilogy Blu-ray set! The discs will be available on October 26th packed to the gills with special features and purportedly sporting a very fine, newly minted HD transfer. …Continued…

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World coming to Blu-ray in November, available for pre-order (UPDATED!)

By Brenden ⋅ September 7, 2010 ⋅ 4 comments

Argh! This just came out! I haven’t even seen it yet! Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is the one movie of the summer that I promised myself I would catch in the cinemas, no matter the cost. And here it is, just a couple of weeks after hitting the big screen, already available for pre-order on Amazon. This does not bode well for its longevity at my local AMC. …Continued…

By Brenden ⋅ August 28, 2010 ⋅ One comment

This is some damn-hot news! I don’t have a lot of time on my hands to wax rhapsodic about it today, but I’ve got to let you know that Amazon has just listed Sofia Coppola’s brilliant Lost in Translation for release on Blu-ray this December 7th!! I’m so stoked! That’s right – I just wrote the word “stoked.” That’s how out-of-my-mind this news makes me. …Continued…

It’s Blu-ray trailer day, here at The Blu-ray Blog! Here’s a look at another big October release – possibly *THE* October release – the trailer for the Back To The Future: 25th Anniversary Trilogy set. …Continued…

[VIDEO] Heroes: Season 4 Blu-ray Trailer

By Brenden ⋅ July 25, 2010 ⋅ One comment

I stopped watching Heroes ages ago but admit to being morbidly curious about where the series ended up. This trailer, with its slightly out-of-sync audio doesn’t really offer me too much or make me want to rush out and spend $56 on Amazon to check it out. But if somebody wants to lend me their boxed sets for a couple of weeks, I certainly wouldn’t turn them down… …Continued…

Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood Blu-ray announced for UK release

By Brenden ⋅ July 22, 2010 ⋅ 3 comments

Speaking of Ridley Scott films starring Russell Crowe (read all about the new Blu-ray edition of Gladiator here, if you haven’t already), Universal Pictures have announced the September 20th release of the duo’s recent Robin Hood film on Blu-ray in the U.K. I missed this one in the theatres but I have to say, it looks like a major misstep – prequel story, old Robin, too much war, too much like Gladiator, etc. But, as a long time fan of all things Robin Hood, I’m eager to get my hands on it and give it a go. I mean, really…how bad can it possibly be?! …Continued…
