The second season of The 100 continues the story about 100 young criminals who have been sent to Earth from their home in space in order to determine whether the planet is inhabitable, 97 years after a nuclear war.

Season 2 was a huge improvement over the first season. The Blu-ray release it top notch in the AV department. I highly recommend this Blu-ray release as the best way to see this show.

Clint does his thing.

The Rookie doesn't rank very high in Clint Eastwood's filmography, but this Blu-ray release from Warner Brothers does a lot to change that.

Great release on Blu-ray!

This is simply one of the all-time greatest classics ever made, and time has done nothing to diminish its many charms. The Adventures of Robin Hood is one of those films that everyone must see at least once in their lifetime (and after you've seen it once, you're going to watch it again and again), and this Blu-Ray release is certainly the best way to see it.

Vilmos Zsigmond's atmospheric cinematography is beautifully presented on this Blu-ray.
Like the image quality, the DTS 5.1 audio track is outstanding -- rich, dramatic and making creative use of immersive sound.

A great film finally heads to Blu-ray!

Based on actual events and experiences of those who survived the Khmer Rouge’s house of horrors, Roland Joffé’s The Killing Fields continues to be a visceral and haunting tale. As it was in 1984, much of the film’s emotional impact rests on the shoulders of first-time actor Ngor, who depicts Pran simply, but bravely, as he draws on his own nightmarish fight to survive the Khmer Rouge regime.
Viewers should be delighted by the healthy grain levels, solid blacks, and uncompromised contrast. Color is also deep and nicely saturated, looking particularly exceptional during the iconic sunset shot and various views of the jungle. Detail also holds up nicely, resolving fine patterns in skin and fabrics in close ups and maintaining overall definition in wide shots.
The soundstage is also impressively wide for a two-channel track, most notable during an early scene involving military helicopters as well with various combat sequences.
Warner Home Video turns in a faithful and pleasing presentation for the harrowing tale of The Killing Fields, starring Sam Waterston and the late Haing Ngor. The special features are a bit meager, but the strength of the feature and Ngor’s performance in particular make the title one worthy of collection.
