Tuesday Round Up

Between 1965 and 1971, Greeeeeeeen Acres was the place to be. And now thanks to Shout! Factory, UpcomingDiscs HQ is the place to be...for a closer look at the classic sitcom! We will soon be reviewing Green Acres: The Complete Series, so be sure to mosey on back to the farm so you can get our take on the DVD set. Shout! also earns its way into The Good Place: Season 1, NBC's inventive afterlife comedy. Before you run off until next week, here's for your customary reminder: if you’re shopping for anything on Amazon and you do it through one of our links, it’ll help keep the lights on here at UpcomingDiscs. See ya next week!

We are smack dab in the middle of spooky season and our annual “31 Nights of Terror.” That means we'll be bringing you at least one horror-themed post every day for the rest of this month, and that includes one of this week's Tuesday Round Up titles. Lionsgate isn't afraid to go in the water with Open Water 3: Cage Dive. Elsewhere, Eagle Rock comes up with some pinball wizardry thanks to The Who: Tommy Live at The Royal Albert Theater. Finally, Warner Bros. bets on The House, explores royal intrigue with Reign: The Fourth and Final Season, and feels festive with Peanuts Holiday Special Collection (4K).

Yo-ho, yo-ho, it's a pirate's life for us here at UpcomingDiscs HQ! Lucky for us, we didn't have to plunder Disney's treasure chest...the Mouse House was kind enough to send us some of their most valuable booty on their own. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales arrives in both 4K and on Blu-ray this week. Elsewhere, Shout! Factory mines drama out of the When Calls the Heart 6-Movie Collection and prepares for the worst with The Survavilist. Cohen Media Group relives one of the world's darkest hours with Churchill, Acorn goes searching for Loch Ness: Season 1, and Warner Bros. shuffles along with iZombie: Season 3. Finally, HBO examines the downfall of Bernie Madoff with The Wizard of Lies.

This is the start of a new month, but I'm going to give you the same ol' reminder: if you’re shopping for anything on Amazon and you do it through one of our links, it’ll help keep the lights on here at UpcomingDiscs. See ya next week!

After a whirlwind past couple of weeks, things are finally starting to get back to normal around these parts. Of course, what passes for normal at UpcomingDiscs HQ doesn’t quite fit everyone’s definition. Case in point: is it normal to have a bunch of Autobots and Decepticons matching wits with the likes of Mark Wahlberg, Sir Anthony Hopkins(!), and Merlin the Magician(!!!)? Of course not! But that is exactly what is going down here this week thanks to the fine folks at Paramount, who were kind enough to send along a UHD copy of Transformers: The Last Knight (4K). Elsewhere, Magnolia Home Entertainment clocks in at 2:22, while Lionsgate brings a particular set of skills to the small screen with Taken: Season 1.

Before signing off for the week (and for September), here’s the usual reminder: if you’re shopping for anything on Amazon and you do it through one of our links, it’ll help keep the lights on here at UpcomingDiscs. See ya next week!

You probably heard that we had a very unwelcome visitor blow through town last week. And while UpcomingDiscs HQ is still standing, we did experience some stressful moments and a power outage that caused us to go off the grid for about a week. Fortunately, things are starting to get back to normal and we appreciate you bearing with us as we play catch up.

One of Irma's casualties was last week's Tuesday Round Up, which is why we are doubling up this week! The slew of Sept. 12 releases we wanted to tell you about includes Universal's The Mummy (4K), which served as the launch of the studio's Dark Universe. Universal also phones home with the UHD release of E.T. (4K), while Film Movement keeps its Soul on a String. Warner Brothers smartens up with Big Bang Theory: Season 10 and CBS with Scorpion: Season 3. HBO makes a profane mockery out of politics with Veep: Season 6 and invests in Silicon Valley: Season 4. Fox mixes music and drama with Empire: Season 3 and combines happy tears with sad tears in the great This is Us: Season 1.

Despite the fact that quality TV offerings can be found year-round on practically every channel (and streaming service) these days, there's still something to be said for tradition. With that in mind, the start of the network Fall TV season will be here in a flash. Warner Bros. revs us up for The Flash: Season 3 and battles inner (and outer) demons with Supernatural: Season 12. CBS hangs ten with Hawaii Five-O: Season 7 and profiles some Criminal Minds: Season 12. Elsewhere, Shout! Factory brings Just Shoot Me: The Complete Series back in style, while HBO relives The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.

But it's not all TV all the time. Universal tells the true-life story of Megan Leavey, while Lionsgate is offering a trio of past hits on UHD: Cabin in the Woods (4K), Red (4K), and Red 2 (4K). This is the start of a new month, but I'm going to give you the same ol' reminder: if you’re shopping for anything on Amazon and you do it through one of our links, it’ll help keep the lights on here at UpcomingDiscs. See ya next week!

With school back in session and summer pretty much in the rearview mirror, this seems like an odd time to head back to the beach. Well thanks to Paramount, the beach is coming to us! This week, we’ll be analyzing the gleaming abs, heaving bosoms, and schlocky special effects of Paramount's Baywatch (4K). Meanwhile, Universal has its sights set on the cheesy TV show’s original star with Killing Hasselhoff, and RLJ Entertainment confronts the Evil in Us. Warner Bros. vamps it up with The Originals: Season 4 and checks in with Charlie Brown and Co. thanks to Peanuts: School Days. Warner also brings us a double dose of everyone’s favorite Caped Crusader with Gotham: Season 3 and the animated flick Batman and Harley Quinn. Elsewhere, CBS is on the case with Elementary: Season 5 and NCIS: Season 14. Finally, Disney gets in touch with its wild side thanks to nature doc Born in China and transports us to a galaxy far, far away with Star Wars Rebels: Season 3.

It was almost 40 years ago that director Ridley Scott brought the first film in the Alien franchise to theaters and taught us that in space no one can hear you scream. Then again, maybe all they need in space to hear us is the latest Oppo player and a sweet UHD home theater set-up. Fox delivers some out-of-this-world thrills with Alien: Covenant (4K). On top of that, Warner Bros. looks up in the sky for Supergirl: Season 2 and goes down below for a devilishly good time with Lucifer: Season 2. Finally, CBS is on the case with NCIS: Los Angeles — Season 8 and keeps it in the family with Blue Bloods: Season 7.

Everyone's favorite rag-tag team of rollicking a-holes is back for another adventure. And no I'm not talking about myself and the rest of the UpcomingDiscs staff...Disney's Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 arrives in 4K! But that's not the only ultra-HD title we're bringing you this week: Warner Bros. reboots one of the world's most famous stories with King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (4K). Meanwhile, Lionsgate hops in the backseat with The Lincoln Lawker (4K), while Cinedigm shoots straight with Hickok (4K). Paramount steps into the ring with Chuck, CBS visits the Big Easy with NCIS: New Orleans — Season 3, and Showtime goes for broke with Billions: Season 2. Meanwhile, Metropol Pictures turns up the heat with Union Furnace, while Fox pages through the Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul and visits South America for the Amy Schumer/Goldie Hawn kidnapping caper Snatched.

But wait...there's more! Friday brings a pair of new theatrical releases for us to review: we'll let you know if it's safe to check out The Hitman's Bodyguard and spend a day at the races with Logan Lucky, Steven Soderbergh's new heist comedy. One last reminder before signing off for the week: if you’re shopping for anything on Amazon and you do it through one of our links, it’ll help keep the lights on here at UpcomingDiscs.

The competition for TV viewers' eyeballs has never been fiercer, so it's hard for any network drama to make a lasting mark. The sexy and mysterious amnesiac at the center of Blindspot knows a little something about lasting marks...her entire body is covered in cryptic tattoos! Star Jaimie Alexander's Jane Doe might not recall much, but we remember the hit NBC drama just fine and we'll soon be taking a glance at Blindspot: Season 2, courtesy of Warner Bros. Meanwhile, IFC is at the head of the pack with Wolves, while Paramount puts up its Duke-s with a Rio Lobo/Big Jake John Wayne Double Feature on Blu-ray.
