DVD Day: January 10th, 2012
 |
?? Serenity
On Blu-ray. Weirdly, at the moment the Blu-ray by itself is $12.50, yet the Blu-ray/DVD combo is $8.50, and the Collector’s Edition DVD is $25. As my periodic reminder that I don’t actually love Joss Whedon, despite the TR commenters say, I won’t be buying any of these.
? The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption
Oh, Ron Perlman. You really didn’t have anything better to do?
? Doctor Who: The Android Invasion and Invasion of the Dinosaurs
That’s a lot of invasions.
? Paul
The unrated and theatrical versions in one DVD set (previously only available on Blu-ray).
? Legend: Ultimate Edition
On Blu-ray, finally. Truly, if there’s a way Tim Curry is meant to be seen as The Darkness, it’s in HD.
? G.I. Joe Series 2: Season 1
The post-movie, DiC-made cartoon with Cobra Commander in armor. Includes the Operation: Dragonfire miniseries.
The ’70s one, available again.
? Jack of All Trades: The Complete Series
Bruce Campbell is a Revolutionary War-era spy tasked with fucking with the French. I’d like to think that Sam Axe, Bruce’s character in Burn Notice, is Jack Stiles’ descendent, wouldn’t you
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
