The Nightmare Before Christmas
James: While this wasn’t a new release this year by far the best looking Blu-ray that I have ever seen. This is your reference disk and it is an amazing movie as well. Michael: I have to agree. Such an amazing movie. I am picking this as a personal favorite. I find that I mention this movie a lot. It holds a special place in my heart. |
Must Own New Releases on Blu-ray

James: Hands down my pick of the year for Blu-ray purchase is Tron Legacy. Simply stunning movie in 2D or 3D and is by far a reference disk for your home theater setup. The full bundle also comes with the 3D/2D/DVD/Digital Copy and also the original Tron on Blu-ray, or simply the 2 Disc might be fine for you either way you can’t go wrong. Michael: Great visuals and a fantastic soundtrack. Oh and Olivia Wilde in black latex… |

Crazy, Stupid, Love Michael: I really really enjoyed this movie. I enjoyed the actors, There relationships and chemistry that developed. It had a great combination of humor and sweetness. I enjoy its down to earth, touching, romantic plot. |

Adjustment Bureau
Michael: This movie really stuck with me for a while. For whatever reason I kept thinking back at how much I enjoyed it. I thought that Matt Damon and Emily Blunt did a fantastic job. Loved watching them together. Nice combination of romance and sci-fi. Interesting twists and take. |
