This Blue-Ray version of 'Christmas Story' presents almost nothing new compared to its standard dvd counterpart. Unless you don't have it on dvd already, I'd say skip it.

This Blue-Ray version presents so-called upgraded picture quality over the standard definition dvd, although I don't really notice a huge difference. While this disc faithfully ports over all the special features from the previous 2-disc dvd special edition, it really offers nothing new much new in terms of extras. Unless you're a person who just has money to burn, I wouldn't recommend buying this one unless you don't already have it."

This Blue-Ray version of 'Blazing Saddles' presents slightly upgraded picture quality, the only question being - is it that much better than standard dvd as to warrant spending the moeny if you already own it? Probably not. While this disc faithfully ports over all the special features from previous dvd edition, it really offers nothing new much new in terms of extras. So the bottom line is, do you feel like spending a good chunk of money for picture quality that will only be slightly noticeable when viewed on a high quality large widescreen HDTV? Unless you're a person who just has money to burn, I'd recommend just buying the special standard edition dvd and saving yourself about $20."
This three-pack of discs from Warner Bros. collects the director's cuts editions of the first three Lethal Weapon films. Each disc contains extended versions featuring previously unreleased footage, and theatrical trailers. Each movie is presented in a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves their original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. This is an excellent package for hardcore fans of Richard Donner's slam-bang series.

In my opinion, the 'Lethal Weapon' director's cuts just aren't worth owning unless you are head-over-heels for the films. But if you are, then this over-priced box set is for you.
Fans of the forever bickering cop team of Murtaugh and Riggs take note. All four of the Lethal Weapon films are packaged together in this gift set from Warner Bros. Each of these titles (Lethal Weapon, Lethal Weapon 2, Lethal Weapon 3, and Lethal Weapon 4) is available individually, but this package offers them all together for a reasonable list price.

In my opinion, the only two 'Lethal Weapon' films worth owning are the first and maybe the fourth. Save yourself money and buy the titles individually.

'Lethal Weapon 3' is yet another poor sequel to a first film that was mediocre at best. Dvd transfer is acceptable, but the film just isn't worth owning in my opinion.
Richard Donner's smash follow-up to Lethal Weapon comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include production notes, a theatrical trailer, and a behind-the-scenes featurette. A director's cut of the film has been released on DVD, but less avid fans will do fine with this release, especially considering it is less expensive.

'Temple of Doom' is a terribly pathetic film, especially compared to the first Indiana Jones movie. This dvd contains the same widescreen transfer as released in 2003, plus some new, but minor bonus material that don't make this one worth buying if you already own the 2003 box set.
Close friends Lewis and Gilbert are freshman at their new college. Unfortunately, they are also nerds to the extreme horn-rimmed glasses, ill-fitting, mismatched clothes, intelligence galore, etc. Naturally, the curvaceous coeds, juvenile jocks and infantile frat brothers make their lives, and the lives of their fellow outcasts, a misery. But when the nerds decide to create their own fraternity, sexual and comedic hijinks ensue as the nerds seek vengeance against those who've done them wrong. Director Jeff Kanew Star Robert Carradine, Anthony Edwards, Curtis Armstrong Special Features Widescreen, Commentary Featurettes, Bonus Shorts.

Who doesn't like this movie? 'Revenge of the Nerds' makes for a really good time and is worth at least one, if not several viewings, presented nicely here with a special edition that is sure to be enjoyed by fans. Recommended.
John R. Leonetti's special effects laden sequel to Mortal Kombat comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, making it preferable to the standard full-frame transfer. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. Subtitles are accessible in both of those languages as well. Supplemental materials include profiles of the characters, and the ability to instantly access any of the film's many fight scenes. Genre enthusiasts will greatly enjoy this release from New Line.

Does the impossible in being worst than the first film. Considering the first film was already scraping the bottom of the barrel in terms of quality, I didn't think it was possible for the sequel to be worse. Well it was, and here's the dvd to prove it.
