Home Market Releases for January 14th, 2020

January 13th, 2020

It’s a really bad week on the home market. Granted, there are three wide releases on this week’s list, which is better than most weeks. However, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil is the biggest and the best of these three releases. That’s not a good sign. There are not even a lot of smaller releases to make up for the weakness at the top.

Home Market Releases for December 31st, 2019

December 31st, 2019

I’m going to start this list by saying I don’t know if any of the DVD / Blu-rays on this week’s list are actually coming out on Tuesday. December 31st is a Tuesday, so it would make sense that something is coming out; however, December 31st is also a placeholder date and it is possible that any number of these releases were given that placeholder date by Amazon and then they forgot to update it. There are almost no releases on this week’s list that most people will have heard of, with the main exception being Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, which is only coming out on Video on Demand. The Blu-ray is currently in my Blu-ray player and I hope to get the review done over the weekend. If I stick with my usual rules about what gets featured on this list and what is relegated to a secondary title, then there would be almost nothing to talk about, so I’m including a few releases that aren’t even in the top 10,000 on Amazon’s sales rankings and I’m not bothering with any secondary releases. I promise next week will be more normal. More...

December 11th, 2019

As Christmas rapidly approaches, the number of home market releases shrinks. That said, we do have three $100 million hits on this week’s list, Hustlers, It: Chapter Two, and Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood. All three are worth picking up, but Hustlers and Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice are Pick of the Week contenders, with the former winning out. More...
