All right, we’ve got some great release news and more new disc reviews for you today to start the new week off right!

Let’s get to those reviews first…

Tim has turned in his thoughts on the Warner Archive Collection’s excellent Tom & Jerry: The Golden Era Anthology (1940-1958) Blu-ray release, which is well worth your time for classic animation fans!

Dennis has offered his take on Richard Fleischer’s The Narrow Margin (1952) also in Blu-ray also from the Warner Archive Collection.

And Stephen has delivered his look at Jean-Jacques Beineix’s Diva (1981) in 4K Ultra HD from Kino Lorber Studio Classics.

As expected, we’ve got a great line up of new Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD reviews coming every day this week, so you’ll definitely want to keep checking back daily for those.

Now then… the big news today is that Variety has just revealed that Netflix has licensed two more titles to the Criterion Collection, including Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein (2025) and Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans’s animated hit K-Pop Demon Hunters (2025) from Sony Pictures Animation! This means both films are likely to be released on both Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD later this year. [Read on here...]

We start things off today here at The Bits with a pair of new Blu-ray Disc reviews...

Tim has taken a look at Marty Feldman’s The Last Remake of Beau Geste (1977), new on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics. It comes with a terrific audio commentary by our friend Alan Spencer—the longtime writer, executive producer of TV’s Sledge Hammer, and personal friend of Feldman—that’s worth the purchase price of the disc all by itself. Don’t miss it.

Also, Dennis has offered his thoughts on Elia Kazan’s Baby Doll (1956) on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection. Do give that a look as well.

Speaking of the Warner Archive Collection, we want to take a moment to remind everyone that even though WB Shop has officially closed, Warner Archive Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K titles can now be purchased from their brand store on Amazon.com (click here for that). Warner Archive has just revealed more new upcoming titles (see our post yesterday) and we have word that they’ll have new titles through the end of 2021 at least. It’s likely that the label will continue indefinitely, just run by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment itself, rather than its former, dedicated team. [Read on here...]
