All right, we’re back with a news update today and we’ve got a bunch of reviews to share with you today as well. Sorry it’s taken a few days to get back to news coverage this week, but I had a bunch of stuff to deal with this week, including checking in with our industry sources but also clearing a few important items off my review stack, after having my mother visiting for about ten days earlier this month.

As such, I’ve recently reviewed Sony’s terrific The Karate Kid: Ultimate Collection in 4K Ultra HD, a 6-film Amazon-exclusive box set that includes all of the films in this series plus some nice extras and great swag as well. It’s definitely worth getting your hands on if you’re a fan of the series.

On Monday, I also reviewed our friends Jeffrey Morris’ excellent new Space: 1999-themed documentary The Eagle Obsession. That’s coming on Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD in 2026, so we’ll cover it then too.

Meanwhile, Tim has reviewed more of Arrow’s Shawscope: Volume Two Blu-ray box set—specifically Chang Cheh’s Ten Tigers of Kwangtung (1980)—as well as Peter Medak’s The Odd Job (1978) and The Ghost of Peter Sellers (2018) both on Blu-ray from Severin Films.

Dennis has taken a look at Alice Wu’s Saving Face (2004) on Blu-ray from the Criterion Collection.

Stephen has offered his thoughts on Martin Scorsese’s Raging Bull (1980) as newly-released in 4K Ultra HD by the folks at Imprint Films, as well as Atsushi Yamatoya’s Inflatable Sex Doll of the Wastelands (1967) and Jiří Barta’s The Pied Piper & Jiří Barta Shorts (1986) both on Blu-ray from Deaf Crocodile.

And Stuart has reviewed Tōru Murakawa’s The Beast to Die (1980) on Blu-ray from Radiance. [Read on here...]

We have a bunch of new title announcements to start the week off right today...

First up, Paramount has just officially set Damien Chazelle’s Babylon for release on Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K Ultra HD on 3/21, with the Digital release expected tomorrow on 1/31. The Blu-ray and 4K disc will include a trio of behind-the-scenes featurettes (A Panoramic Canvas Called Babylon, The Costumes of Babylon, and Scoring Babylon) along with deleted and extended scenes. Note that a Steelbook 4K SKU will also be widely available the same day. You can see the Amaray art at left and both versions below.

Paramount has now made Adrian Lyne’s Flashdance (1983) official for release in 4K Ultra HD on 4/11 as a new 40th Anniversary Edition. You can see that below as well.

They’ve also set Jon Chu’s G.I. Joe: Retaliation (2013) for 4K Ultra HD re-release as well as a 4K Steelbook 10th Anniversary Edition on 3/28 with Dolby Vision HDR.
