This week The Lion King is the king of the jungle, at least by the amount of Blu-ray Disc editions that are available. Don’t be confused when you’re faced with deciding between a Two-Disc Diamond Edition, Four-Disc Diamond Edition, Eight-Disc Combo, and Two-Disc Diamond Edition in DVD packaging (DVD, what the hay?). Finally, yes finally, Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction is available domestically on Blu-ray Disc after several imports teased us over the last couple of years. In the same genre (and by the same Director), Jackie Brown starring Pam Grier and Samuel L. Jackson is now available on Blu-ray Disc. And, we gotta mention a late 90’s theatrical release called Space Jam starring none other than Bugs Bunny along with NBA great Michael Jordan is now available on hi-def Blu-ray.
