Are you waiting for a grand blu ray movie to watch? Do you want to
make a date with your partner to watch a hd blu ray movie in the theater
to enjoy a romantic night? All things that we need to do is just
believe nothing is impossible for us. Just do it.
As the summer’s first franchise reboot, “X-Men: First Class” failed to
fully invigorate the movie season. But on home video, studios are
redoubling their efforts to find way to breathe new life into older film
series, starting with high-definition upgrades, and continuing with new
extras and extended editions. Take a look at our choices for this
week’s top releases on Blu-ray : Superman.
Along
with Fox’s release last year of its Alien Anthology, The Superman
Motion Picture Anthology (1978-2006) is perhaps the best
Blu-ray box set I’ve yet encountered. Similar (though not identical) to
the DVD set released in 2006, this Warner Bros. effort (in stores this
Tuesday) includes all seven versions of the five films that were
produced over the course of a quarter-century. If you are also a movie
fan, you can rip this blu ray movie to your own home video by using a bluray ripper.
Superman
Anthology (Warner Home Video) – Making audiences believe a man can fly
was Richard Donner’s challenge when he undertook the original “Superman”
in 1978, but some 20-plus years later the only question that remains is
“how good can high-definition make that man flying look?” The answer is
surprisingly satisfying, thanks to transfers which, although some of
them have existed for several years, do a wonderful job of creating a
vivid and authentic comic book world on screen. (This set marks the
debut of the “Superman” theatrical cut as well as “Superman III” and
“IV” on Blu-ray, and all look terrific regardless how bad the latter two
are as movies.) At the same time, this set carries over all of the
extra materials of the 2006 SD set, which means that it comes almost
overstuffed with documentaries, featurettes, interviews, commentaries,
cartoons, and much more.
For my money, Superman (1978) still
remains the best superhero movie ever made, full of humor, heart, and an
iconic performance by Christopher Reeve as the Man of Steel. An Oscar
winner for its visual effects, this exciting adventure also contains one
of John Williams’ best scores, a rich screenplay by the heavyweight
team of Mario Puzo (The Godfather), Robert Benton (Bonnie and Clyde),
David Newman (ditto) and Leslie Newman, and terrific performances down
the line, including Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor, Margot Kidder as Lois
Lane and Valerie Perrine as Eve Teschmacher (the last-named making my
teen heart race during the picture’s original run).
Superman II
(1981), in which our hero squares off against three super-foes (Terence
Stamp, Sarah Douglas and Jack O’Halloran), is slam-bang entertainment,
capturing the style of an actual comic book better than just about any
other adaptation that comes to mind. The first movie’s director, Richard
Donner, was famously replaced on this sequel (by Richard Lester) after
ample filming, an occurrence which finally gave way in 2006 to Superman
II: The Richard Donner Cut.
