What’s new on Blu-ray and UltraViolet this week? Let’s start with Oz the Great and Powerful — the 3D remake [homage and prequel to] the 1939 classic film Wizard of Oz. The Blu-ray is available in several editions including a 3-Disc Blu-ray 3D/Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy, 2-Disc Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy, and Single-Disc Blu-ray/Digital Copy. Unfortunately the release from Disney Home Entertainment does not include an UltraViolet copy to download from the cloud, but there is a Digital Copy included on the included DVD.
Paramount’s Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters also hits shelves this week — and in multiple formats. The film is available in a 2-Disc Unrated Cut on Blu-ray Disc with DVD, Digital Copy, and UltraViolet copy, as well as a 3-Disc Blu-ray 3D combo edition with all the mentioned formats. (See the disc package photos below so you know which disc to look for.)
Other titles this week include Rockshow starring Paul McCartney, Snitch starring Dwayne Johnson,
House of Cards: The Complete First Season, The Newsroom: The Complete First Season, and a 40th Anniversary Edition of Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon.

Also, it is not available in a Blu-ray 3D/Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy combo pack. I am very disappointed and may not buy it due to this.
Oz is not a remake of The Wizard of Oz. Clearly you never seen the movie, if you had you would know that!
thank you for pointing that out! correction applied.
