The Walking Dead: The Complete First Season (2010) - The six-episode first season of the hit show from Frank Darabont (director of
The Shawshank Redemption,
The Green Mile,
and
The Mist) is out today. Police officer Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) wakes up from a coma in a deserted hospital, only to find that the world is now plagued by a zombie outbreak.
Format: DVD - The two formats contain identical special features, and the DVD is on sale for $5.00 less than the Blu-ray version.
The Next Three Days (Paul Haggis, 2010) - Russell Crowe and Elizabeth Banks star, with Liam Neeson and Brian Dennehy among the supporting cast. After his wife, Lara (Banks), is arrested and convicted for a murder she claims she did not commit, John Brennan (Crowe) spends the next three years struggling to prove her innocence and hold him family together. Upon losing her final appeal, Lara becomes suicidal, and John decides that the only way to save his family is to break her out of prison.
Format: DVD - Once again, the features are the same. Even though the Blu-ray includes the DVD version as well as a Digital Copy, the DVD is $5.00 cheaper in most stores, and it is even on sale for $11.99 at
Amazon, which is $6.00 cheaper than other retailers (the Blu-ray is also cheaper, at $16.99).
The Man From Nowhere - (Lee Jeong-beom, 2010) - Starring Bin Won from
Tae Guk Gi and
Mother as ex-special agent Tae-shik who, with the exception of a little girl named So-mi, has distanced himself from the world. When So-mi and her mother are kidnapped by drug traffickers after they discover her mother has been smuggling drugs from them, Tae-shik - who had unknowingly been entrusted with the drugs - must act.
Format: Blu-ray - There is nothing to set the release apart from the DVD, but the Blu-ray is on sale for $13.99 at
Amazon, which is only $1.00 more than the DVD. Essentially, it boils down to a matter of preference and/or whether or not you own a Blu-ray player.
Daniel Tosh: Happy Thoughts (2011) - the new stand-up special from the popular comic and host of
Tosh.0.
Format: DVD - Only available on DVD.
