Tuesday Round Up

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead. In 2016, that last sentence sounds like a spoiler-phobe’s worst nightmare. Fortunately, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead is actually the title of Tom Stoppard’s existential, “sideways Shakespeare” comedy, which gets a 25th anniversary Blu-ray release this week courtesy of RLJ Entertainment. Speaking of RLJ, they’ll also be administering our Painkillers. (You can already check out our chat with star Colm Feore.) Hallmark pledges All of My Heart and nods to So You Said Yes. Finally, Shout! Factory scores a 10 with the Bo Derek double feature Bolero/Ghosts Can’t Do It.

We still want to give you more free stuff. Once a month we’re going to give away a surprise DVD title from our archives to a lucky winner who comments in our weekly Round-Up posts. All you have to do is comment in a Round-Up post — like this one! — and tell us which of the featured titles you’re most curious to read about. (Quick reminder: You’re not telling us which title you’d like to win; your free DVD will be a surprise.)

The winners and their prizes will be announced the first week of every month right here in our Tuesday Round-Up post. You can’t win if you don’t comment. Contest is open to residents of the U.S and Canada.

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. See ya next week!

CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED!

Happy 2016, everybody! We closed last year with a bang — and I’m not just talking about the fireworks above UpcomingDiscs headquarters on New Year’s Eve — and we’re hitting the ground running for our first Tuesday Round Up of 2016. HBO is on the case with True Detective: Season 2. Cinedigm is Full of Grace, plays a Kill Game, offers a horror twist with Little Dead Rotting Hood, and is en pointe with ballet drama Flesh and Bone. Shout! Factory cops to Hill Street Blues: The Final Season, and the studio’s Scream Factory chills us to the bone with The House Where Evil Dwells/Ghost Warrior double feature. Meanwhile, A&E examines more evidence of Ancient Aliens: Season 8.

You can already read our takes on Universal’s The Visit and Green Inferno, along with RLJ Entertainment’s Adulterers and XLrator’s Wrecker. RLJ is also playing fetch with Robo-Dog, while XLrator keeps us at Close Range. Magnolia enters the lab with Experimenter, Green Apple Entertainment shares Susie’s Hope, and Comedy Central gives us a tour of Broad City: Season 2. Finally, Lionsgate takes a trip to Mercury Plains and dives into the Battle for Skyark, while Paramount holds us Captive.

Phew! That’s a lot of options to choose from for our first DVD giveaway of 2016. Before we get to that, let’s offer a hearty congratulations to our December winner: Vicki Wurgler, who won Field of Lost Shoes on DVD.

Vicki is our last Round Up winner of 2015, but you have a chance to seize the first prize for 2016. Once a month we’re going to give away a surprise DVD title from our archives to a lucky winner who comments in our weekly Round-Up posts.

Well, partners, it’s time for the final Tuesday Round Up of 2015…and we’ve got plenty of fireworks before year’s end! We’ll be setting our sights on Hitman: Agent 47, courtesy of Fox. Lionsgate pulls one last major Heist, and Image Entertainment cuts straight to the Bone Tomahawk. Finally, the end of the year also means it’s Showtime! Reviews for two of the cable channel’s series are on the way: Warner Bros. is utterly Shameless: Season 5, while CBS/Paramount reacquaints us with Ray Donovan: Season 3.

This is actually the fifth Tuesday of the month, which means you fine people are getting an extra chance to win free stuff. Once a month we’re going to give away a surprise DVD title from our archives to a lucky winner who comments in our weekly Round-Up posts.

Here’s a happy thought: Pan in 3D soars into UpcomingDiscs headquarters this week, courtesy of Warner Bros. And that’s just a taste of the fun we’re having around these parts, as we count down to Christmas. Lionsgate sharpens Dragon Blade, goes the distance with 12 Rounds 3, and looks up to The Giant King. Finally, Shout! Factory leave us in charge of The Nanny: Season 5.

Your mission — should you choose to accept it — is to check out our review of box office smash Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation, which is available on Blu-ray today. Also this week,  Shout! Factory enrolls in Zombie High and offers a double feature of The Dungeonmaster/Eliminators. Finally, A&E quacks up with Duck Dynasty: Seasons 1-8 and blesses us with a 16-disc Bible Collection.

Play along with me for a minute, if you don’t mind.

– “Knock, knock.”

– (I’ll pretend like I just heard you say, “Who’s there?”)

– “One of this week’s major new releases.”

All right, this charade has gone on long enough. By now you’ve probably figured out that one of our featured titles this week is Knock Knock, the Keanu Reeves thriller that comes courtesy of Lionsgate. On top of that, CBS/Paramount shows us what life is like Under the Dome: Season 3.

Even though it’s a lighter week than usual, you still have a great chance to win free stuff. Once a month we’re going to give away a surprise DVD title from our archives to a lucky winner who comments in our weekly Round-Up posts.

The calendar says it’s December, but it sure doesn’t feel that way down here at the UpcomingDiscs ranch. While we patiently wait for it to get cold enough to get the fireplace going — or at least make us reach for a light jacket — we’ve got another week’s worth of hot releases to review. Lionsgate gives us Amy, which examines the (tragically short) life of singer Amy Winehouse and is one of the best-reviewed movies of the year. But that’s not all: Lionsgate also doubles down with Mississippi Grind, adheres to a Zero Tolerance policy, keeps watch with The Guardsman, settles down with Some Kind of Beautiful, and washes away Cooties. Meanwhile, Image Entertainment goes Where Children Play, and Cinedigm enlists War Pigs.

And since we had to find *some* way to get in the Christmas spirit around here…congratulations to November’s Tuesday Round Up contest winner Sherry McKay, who won Jingle Bell Rocks on DVD. 

If you entered and didn’t win, don’t fret: a new contest kicks off right now. Once a month we’re going to give away a free DVD title to a lucky winner who comments in our weekly Round-Up posts.

We are smack dab in the middle of the most wonderful time of the year. Thanksgiving week falls right in that sweet spot between Halloween and Christmas…and so does A Christmas Horror Story, courtesy of RLJ Entertainment. Comedy Central goes Inside Amy Schumer: Season 3, Lionsgate blazes through American Ultra, Wild Eye Releasing stops at the The Last House, and Sony jams out with Ricki and the Flash. Finally, Ol’ Blue Eyes does it his way with Eagle Rock’s Sinatra: All or Nothing At All.

UpcomingDiscs headquarters looks suspiciously like Middle Earth this week. Join us as we bid farewell to the Hobbit saga…again. Warner Bros. brings us the R-rated, Extended Edition of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. Speaking of Warner, I spy The Man From U.N.C.L.E finagling its way into our midst as well. Finally, IndiePix jumps in the deep end with Swim Little Fish Swim.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is a man of his word. As promised, the Terminator is back…and he’s busting into UpcomingDiscs headquarters! Paramount’s Terminator: Genisys highlights this week’s slate of new releases. Meanwhile, Shout! Factory tunes into WKRP in Cincinnati: The Final Season and catches up with Maude: Season 3. Cinedigm sticks its neck out for Zarafa, and Cohen Media Group introduces us to Two Men in Town. Finally, Lionsgate punches a ticket to The End of the Tour and reminisces with Mr. Holmes (which comes *very* highly recommended).

Avast ye mateys! We’re stepping out of the UpcomingDiscs ranch and testing our sea legs with Anchor Bay’s Black Sails: Season 2. Magnolia Home Entertainment lets us tour Tiger House and debates the Best of Enemies. Paramount is feeling Moody with Californication: The Complete Series, while Cinedigm earns its wings with Paper Angels and samples The Nutcracker Sweet. XLrator is on the verge of Breaking Through, IndiePix gathers up the Crumbs, and HBO nurses Getting On: Season 2 back to full strength. Image Entertainment has Uncanny timing with this week’s releases: we already have an interview with Some Kind of Hate star Ronen Rubinstein available for your listening pleasure. And Holy Happy Ending, loyal readers! Our last title is Batman: Season 3.

Most importantly, we get to crown our first Tuesday Round DVD contest winner. Congratulations to Jim Gardner, who won the 8(!)-disc Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts: Stingers and Zingers set.

We’re nearing the end of “Horrorcane” season here at UpcomingDiscs, so what better time to exorcise some last-minute demons? Strap yourself — or a possessed loved one — to the nearest piece of furniture, and check out our forthcoming review on The Exorcism of Molly Hartley, courtesy of Fox. Wild Eye Releasing tunes into The Horror Network, Warner Bros. fetches the heroic canine tale Max, and Eagle Rock shows us how to enunciate with Lynyrd Skynyrd: Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd & Second Helping Live. And while we’re on grammar lessons, a sparkling new 50th anniversary edition of My Fair Lady arrives this week, thanks to Paramount.

Howdy there, partners. Gino back in the Tuesday Round Up rotation. This time Johnny caught me asleep down at the bunkhouse, and now I’m pullin’ double duty tonight. That’s OK. I’m gettin’ him back later. I have a pretty good reptile collection here on the Upcomingdiscs Ranch, and I’m pickin’ out a special sleepin’ buddy for good ol’ Johnny.

Enough horseplay. We’ve got titles coming out this week. Look for reviews on the following. You hockey pucks are going to just love the Don Rickles Ultimate Television Collection out from Timeless Media. Learn about the birds and the bees (or is that the Tooties and the Blairs?). It’s The Facts Of Life Season 7 from Shout. Warner Brothers will knock you out with The Mike Tyson Mysteries. Anchor Bay is opening up the books for Making The Mob. We’re sending a lucky winner History’s The Curse Of Oak Island Season 2. Look for that contest coming soon. MPI is invading the classic television landscape with My Favorite Martian: The Complete Series. Lionsgate ends it all with the thriller Z For Zachariah and finds religion in The Vatican Tapes.

We’d love to hear you tell us what you plan to add to your own video collection this week. Starting this month we’re going to add a little incentive to hear from you. Once a month we’re going to give away a free DVD title from among the comments in our weekly Round-Up posts. You tell us what you’re interested in, and you might just get something free for sharing. The winners and their prizes will be announced the first week of every month right here in our Tuesday Round-Up post.

And, partners, don’t forget. If you’ll be making that video withdrawal from Amazon, lasso yourself one of our many links to get there. It helps keep us going here on the Upcomingdiscs ranch. Until next week, share some light with someone this week… television light, that is.

CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED: Congrats to Jim Gardner, who won the 8(!)-disc Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts: Stingers and Zingers set. 

Ready to get Rocked? Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson headlines this week’s Tuesday Round Up, and he’s here to shake things up with Warner Bros.’ earthquake disaster hit San Andreas. Warner also hangs out at The Gallows, counts to The 100: Season 2, and develops quite The Following: Season 3. Shout! Factory answers our prayers with The Saint: Seasons 1&2, and Magnolia grieves The Little Death. Finally, we say farewell to Mad Men: The Final Season — Part 2 with a Coke and a smile.
