I have no idea how studios choose their release dates, but this week is packed. It’s not necessarily a week loaded with quality films, but considering the lackluster weeks recently I have no idea why they wouldn’t have waited to unload some of these a couple weeks ago when they could have dominated a weaker marketplace.
Some of the more intriguing titles are catalog selections in my “Even More” selection including individual releases of the Extended Editions of Lord of the Rings on Blu-ray and 100th Anniversary Blu-ray releases of Universal’s Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein, Airport and Harvey not to mention season releases of “The Walking Dead”, “Homeland” and “Once Upon a Time”.
That said, there are a few solid titles among this week’s releases and be sure and check out the new release dates as I now have confirmed dates for the DVD and Blu-ray releases of Prometheus, The Amazing Spider-Man and Brave.
