DVD FIX: July 28, 2009

Ahoy, consumers. It’s Tuesday so you know what that means – new release day. This week is kind of all over the place, but there’s one big release, featuring a certain emerald-clad guardian, that I’m looking forward to and will review soon.
Here’s the notable releases for Tuesday, July 28th, and remember, any purchases made via Amazon through the links on this page will save a person’s life. Or at least line my pockets and give me more drive to keep the content coming… you cheap bastards.
Fast & Furious (Two-Disc Special Edition)
- The aptly-titled fourth film in the highly-successful brought back the original cast for another testosterone-filled, two hour rap music video in which Paul Walker talks in a voice that’s actually lower than his natural speaking tone. If you like suped-up cars and ridiculous cliches then you’ll love this one.
Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Series [Blu-ray]
- The wildly successful reimagining of Battlestar Galactica gets the full-series treatment on Blu-Ray. This 25 disc set will put you back at least $200 and features every season of the show, the original mini-series and the Razor feature. All that in a super cool Cylon package.
Dragonball: Evolution
- Yes, some folks made a Dragonball movie. Yes, apparently it licks donkey dink. No, I won’t be buying it. No, you probably shouldn’t. Save your money for a full-print button-up Dragonball shirt.
Green Lantern: First Flight (Two-Disc Special Edition)
- Now this is the title of the week, DC’s new full-length feature telling the origin of Green Lantern Hal Jordan. DC is on a roll with these animated films, I tell ya. Reviews so far have been really positive for this particular title, and I myself can’t wait to pop the Blu-Ray in.
Come back next week, same bat time, for the scoop on the new releases.

I thought one of the upsides to blu-ray was cutting down on the amount of discs? Isn’t one blu-ray like 80gigs or something? (multi layered?) Even uncompressed, 25 discs seems like something you’d find with the dvd release of the same product.
I like seeing all the art and packaging, but I also like the idea of all my content covered on just a few discs. Less getting up and disc managing because I’m lazy like that.
Also give it up for Paul Walker…bro. woo!
