DVD and Blu-ray Releases for July 3rd, 2012 - The Numbers

  • ️Wed Jul 04 2012

Looney Tunes: Platinum Collection 1 - Buy from Amazon
Chronological order. Do not release another Looney Tunes collection till you make a chronological collection. In fact, plan the entire catalogue from start to finish for a Blu-ray release, and include a Java program that allows you to select cartoons based on characters involved, themes, etc. and it will prompt you to change discs when necessary. I would buy a complete collection on Blu-ray, but I won't spend any more money on random collections.

Mac & Devin Go to High School - Buy from Amazon: DVD or Blu-ray
A stoner comedy that tries to make the argument for marijuana legalization. There are no reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, but the ones I did find online were mostly negative.

Mannix: Season Seven - Buy from Amazon
The penultimate season of Mannix. After this, Mike Conner's iconic private eye only has to get shot a couple more times and knocked unconscious about six times. Can the show still entertain after seven seasons? Check out our review to find out.

Midsomer Murders: Set 20 - Buy from Amazon: DVD or Blu-ray
The latest season of the long-running British police procedural series. As a TV on DVD release, it is way too expensive. As a series of TV movies, it is worth picking up.

No Holds Barred - Buy from Amazon
One of the first Wrestling movies. Should have been one of the last.

The Pirate Movie - Buy from Amazon
The re-release of a DVD for a movie that was a critical failure and a box office bomb. It is fighting for a spot in the top twenty according to Amazon.com. It is a slllloooooooooowwwwww week.

Rocko's Modern Life: Season Three - Buy from Amazon
I was supposed to get this show to review, but so far none of the seasons have arrived. There was talk of a complete series Megaset, so maybe that screener will arrive.

Some Guy Who Kills People - Buy from Amazon
Such a generic name. I think the name might hurt the DVD sales, as will the lack of reviews. Granted, the one review on Rotten Tomatoes is positive, but I don't think it will sell very well. On the other hand, there is very little competition this week.

Streets of San Francisco: Season Three - Buy from Amazon: DVD or Blu-ray
Good show, but I hate it when they split seasons into two volumes. The price-per-minute is almost always too high.

The Women of Saturday Night Live - Buy from Amazon
A lot of these women deserve solo DVDs, but I guess a compilation is as good as it will get for now.
