DVD Day: April 5th, 2011
 |
?? Tron: Legacy
Available in five different sets, including ones with DVDs, Blu-rays, digital copies, 3-D versions, with or without Tron classic, and one with a special Identity Disc collector’s case. For the record, I got the Blu-ray/DVD combo, BECAUSE THERE’S NOT JUST A BLU-RAY VERSION GODDAMMIT.
? Tron
Finally back on DVD and now on Blu-ray, but with a really shitty cover. I still think it was a mistake that Disney didn’t release this before the Legacy came out so people could have checked it out and maybe had a better idea what the fuck was going on in the sequel.
? The Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader
The third one. Something about someone treading some dawn, I think.
? Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Part 4
Second to last set. I still gotta watch these things; the first two volumes are on Netflix Instant, so I’ll hopefully be getting around to them soon.
? A.I.: Artificial Intelligence
The Kubrick-Spielberg joint that doesn’t do either of them any favors, actually.
? Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker
On Blu-ray, but it’s not the uncut version. You’ve been warned. UPDATE: Some of you are saying it is uncut. Some of the reviews on Amazon says it’s not. I trust my internet commenters over other people’s internet commenters, so there you go.
