The year comes to a close in a matter of days, so that means its time break out the obligatory end of year/best of/top 10 of things from 2021. This year saw a nice surge in titles coming to 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray, ending the year with Criterion FINALLY getting on board and getting involved in […]

This list consists of what I consider to be the best 2017 had to offer for the Blu-ray format based on what I’ve […]
In the history of cinema, we’ve been through many teachers with challenging students or schools altogether.
