When we were first introduced to Furiosa in Mad Max: Fury Road, she gave our boy Max a run for his money. She could drive and fight and had so much to live for. She was an incredible hero in a world full of hoarders and crazies. She never gave up and she held her own running from Immortan Joe and his goons. But we didn’t know much about her, except that she came from The Green Place. Now, we have Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga to give us more insight into how she became the hero of the last film.

When you think about sports shows or films, how many of them do you recall being comedic? There are a few – White Men Can’t Jump or Bull Durham come to mind and not just because of the Ron Shelton connection. There aren’t a lot that go straight for the laugh though. When a show is serious about the sport it reflects on, there must not be room for laughs. That is, until we came to Ted Lasso. Jason Sudeikis and a game supporting cast have gone for the pitch and kicked an incredible goal. Now, after premiering and a series finale on AppleTV+, we get Ted Lasso on Blu-ray!

It’s been twenty years since the August 2004 debut of Michael Mann’s thrilling neo-noir Collateral. While the film had previously been released on 4K UHD back in 2020, Paramount saw fit to re-release the film with a snazzy new steelbook edition. No, there has been no change to film in any other way, let alone any new features added. However, for anyone who does not already own the Oscar-nominated Tom Cruise/Jamie Foxx flick, there’s plenty to enjoy here. The film remains a well-crafted, cool display of Mann’s precision fitting on a tense, high-concept story. The unique-for-the-time filmmaking choices (shooting on digital) also meant seeing a film take a different visual approach, leading to some interesting results for the home release. But hey, make the best of it, improvise, adapt. Gotta roll with it.
