Avatar finally makes its long awaited debut on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray! This is in fact a 4K upscale from the 2K Digital Intermediate but you would beg to find any flaws in the presentation. Adding in HDR grading (lacks Dolby Vision because Disney doesn’t have the licensing except for streaming) and immediately you see the night and day difference with the older, yet crisp previous Blu-ray. This comes in a three-disc collection with the third disc being all extra features, packed with new content you’ll spend hours watching. Unfortunately they did not bring over some features that were present on the Extended Collectors Edition Blu-ray. All in all, if you are looking to upgrade your previous Blu-Ray or have never added Avatar to your collection, now is certainly the time!
The 16th-century Japan of Kurosawa's InchSeven SamuraiInch is transposed to the American Old West in this classic crowd favorite directed by John Sturges. Yul Brynner stars as gunslinger Chris Adams, who, at the request of beleaguered Mexican peasants, recruits and trains a band of fellow mercenaries (including Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, James Coburn, and Robert Vaughn) to defend their town from the repeated raids of bandit Calvera (Eli Wallach) and his horde. With Brad Dexter, Horst Buchholz. 128 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Two-disc set.

When looking back at the golden era of Westerns, The Magnificent Seven is hard to overlook. Adapted from Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai, the movie exchanges swords with guns but leaves the plot almost completely intact. Yule Brenner plays the charismatic leader of a ragtag posse of gunslingers he recruits to protect a village from bandits lead by Eli Wallach. The 4k transfer is top notch over previous blu ray offerings and the image is cleaned up of any of the typical scratches and dirt from old source materials. A healthy amount of film grain is present, colors are more accurate and black levels deeper thanks to a new Dolby Vision and HDR color grade. I would highly recommend upgrading if you already own this film on previous home media or if this is your first time purchasing this title!

This is my second favorite Stephen King movie to come to the 4K format right behind The Shawshank Redemption. The quality is equal in every aspect. This movie literally looks as though it was shot in the last few years and the Dolby Vision HDR and resolution is top tier.

Horizon Forbidden West follows up brilliantly on one of the most unique and original new IP’s on the PS4. Many returning characters help Aloy on her journey to the West, which is fraught with dangers from new enemy types and tribal factions. She hasn’t come unprepared, having new skill sets and gadgets to overcome the many obstacles in her path for answers to Project Zero Dawn. Gameplay is revamped and much more customizable and enjoyable. I played this on my LG CX OLED, swapping from quality mode to performance mode depending on what I was doing in the game. Quality Mode is set to 30 FPS but maxes the resolution to a native 4K, while Performance Mode is 60 FPS and 1440P. If you loved the first game as I did, you’ll be blown away by the mystery and story of this next chapter in Aloy’s story!

Arrow video has become one of the best boutique labels out there for quality Collector’s Editions. This came with a slew of physical extras in a firm cardboard sleeve that looks great on my shelf! The 4K presentation is amazing with heightened details, color accuracy and Dolby Vision HDR. Arrow releases also come with some of the best extra features and commentary for hours of enjoyment.

I needed this bag for traveling and I’m very satisfied with the quality and space this offers. I have a 15” laptop and a laptop cooler that it sits on that are able to fit in this bag. There is extra room for a charging brick and cables, as well as game controllers and other peripherals.

John Carpenter’s follow up to the classic Escape from New York is a bit of a hit and miss. There are some likable characters this go round and Snake has the one-liners completely covered. A rehashed story similar to the structure from the original movie, albeit in a new locale, weakens it overall. A short runtime makes it worthwhile for a popcorn action flick, so sit back and watch the explosions! Note: The 4K presentation is amazing, color grading and grain structure are all in respectable standards for this release. I had to return this product before opening because of an audio issue with the surround sound track. This is documented online and Paramount is aware and offering a disc replacement program to fix this. If you have a white UPC code on the back, you’ll need a replacement, but if there is a yellow UPC code, you’re in the clear.

I was born in 1985 so I have a spiritual connection with these movies. I had owned the 30th Anniversary Edition Blu-Ray before this purchase and felt like these were a real upgrade over those. Universal Pictures has been releasing some of the best 35mm 4K UHD transfers and this just adds to the list. Plus, you’re getting an awesome set of Steelbooks to house them in. The packaging is really nice and separates each book from the others. Loads of extras on each 4K disc and an additional bonus features Blu-ray as well. I never hesitated to buy this set and I wouldn’t sleep on it if I were you!

My wife got me into watching David Attenborough BBC documentaries. I am more of a history doc type but David has a way of presenting the world in a magnificent way, both narratively and visually. The quality of the 4K UHD and HDR are much better than the two year older Planet Earth 2, but has the same charm you would expect. My cat also enjoyed this series! He loves watching all the animals as if they’re really in our living room on my 55” LG CX OLED. This is definite reference quality and on sale!
