My Two Cents
Couple more things for you today...
First, our own Tim Salmons has returned with a review of Sony’s Olympus Has Fallen on Blu-ray Disc. Sounds like a decent rental at least.
Also today, MPI and IFC Midnight have set Argento’s Dracula 3-D, directed by Dario Argento and starring Rutger Hauer, for Blu-ray 3D/Blu-ray release on 1/28.
Scream Factory has set The Slumber Party Massacre for Blu-ray release on 3/18. [Read on here…]
Well, folks... I continue to battle this damn flu, but I think I’ve got the better of it today at least. At any rate, we’ve got some good stuff here at the site today.
First, we’ve got a new review for you. Actually, it’s a rare hardware review here at The Bits. You see, we’ve found a piece of hardware so awesome, so useful and cool, that we just couldn’t help ourselves but have a little fun with it: Factory Entertainment’s Jaws: Collectible Bottle Opener. So here’s our very own Todd Doogan to put old Bruce through his paces. It’s definitely gets the Bits recommendation for great holiday stocking stuffer ideas.
Also today, Russell Hammond has posted the weekly Release Dates & Artwork section update featuring all the latest Blu-ray, DVD and Video Game (now including Xbox One and PS4) cover art and Amazon.com pre-order links. And as always, a portion of anything you order from Amazon after clicking to them through our links goes to help support our work here at The Bits and we really do appreciate it.
Now then, we’ve got some interesting announcement news for you today... [Read on here...]
I’m back after an unexpected day’s absence there. I’ve been fighting a flu for the last few days and you know how that goes. It just caught up with me yesterday. Luckily, a day’s worth of sleep worked wonders.
To start off today, we’ve got a couple new Blu-ray reviews from Tim Salmons: Criterion’s Eyes Without a Face and La Cage aux Folles. Methinks, somebody took advantage of Barnes & Noble’s 50% off sale. LOL! [Read on here…]
Just a quick one today as there’s not an abundance of release news to report.
Anchor Bay Films has set Battle of the Damned coming to BD and DVD on 2/18. The action films stars Dolph Lundgren and features zombies, robots and what have you.
Lionsgate has Thanks for Sharing set for Blu-ray and DVD on 1/7, starring Gwyneth Paltrow. Lionsgate also has Duck Dynasty: Season 4 coming on Blu-ray and DVD on 2/18. [Read on here…]
Okay, we’ve got a couple things that should be of interest to some of you today…
First, we’ve confirmed with Fox that the new Robocop Blu-ray Disc due on 1/21 is remastered from a 4K transfer and it’s definitely the director’s cut version of the film. Extras will include audio commentary with director Paul Verhoeven, writer Ed Neumeier and executive producer Jon Davison, deleted scenes, a new Q&A with the Filmmakers, the Flesh and Steel: The Making of Robocop documentary, 5 legacy featurettes (Shooting Robocop, Making Robocop, Villains of Old Detroit, Special Effects: Then and Now and Robocop: Creating a Legend), The Boardroom: Storyboard with commentary by animator Phil Tippett, an Easter egg, the theatrical trailer and a TV spot.
