The long-awaited release of Star Trek Into Darkness on Blu-ray has now arrived. Well, not that it’s been years. It may just seem longer because digital downloads of the movie went on sale weeks ago. Nevertheless, the J.J. Abrams-directed film is available in several different Blu-ray editions including a 2-disc edition, 3-disc edition with Blu-ray 3D, and a special Starfleet Phaser Limited Edition Gift Set. All Blu-ray editions include a DVD copy, Digital Copy, and UltraViolet code to download from the cloud. The Blu-ray Disc video is coded in 1080p MPEG-4 with audio in English Dolby TrueHD 7.1.

Other releases this week include Homeland: The Complete Second Season, The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Sixth Season, Madonna: The MDNA Tour, and Criterion Collection’s release of The Spy Who Came in from the Cold (1965). And, if you want to check out some vintage horror/sci-fi, The Fly (1958) starring David Hedison, Patricia Owens, and Vincent Price has been released to Blu-ray Disc. The edition from 20th Century Fox Studio Classics includes a DTS-HD Master Audio 4.0 soundtrack, audio commentaries, a biography of Vincent Price, and Fox Movietone News among other extras.
