Can anyone think about this Tuesday’s Blu-ray Disc releases with the most anticipated BD release, Star Wars, hitting shelves on Friday? Star Wars or not, there are some great new titles on BD this week. Thor is one title you might want to check out, either in 2D or 3D. Whether or not you liked the film it’s always worth seeing what a $150 million production looks like on a consumer level HDTV. Several TV shows are getting seasonal releases this week on Blu-ray including The Big Bang Theory, Supernatural, Camelot, and Glee. What could be the best bargain this week is Anchor Bay’s 350 minutes of Spartacus: Gods of the Arena which originally aired on Starz. Violent and risqué, Spartacus: Gods of the Arena combines some great writing with 300-like graphic quality. And, we shouldn’t forget to mention Peter Jackson’s film The Frighteners is now on Blu-ray Disc, which includes both the Theatrical Version and Director’s Cut.
