Welcome to another shiny new edition of The Digital Wire! Despite that exuberant fanfare, I am sad to announce that this week has been mighty slim in the realm of Blu-ray and DVD release news and the titles we have to report on won’t get much interest as they are all part of tired franchises, but one of the purposes of this feature is to give such titles the space they deserve. Besides, you may be interested in one or more of them.

Below you’ll find info on several future home video releases complete with technical specs, release dates, and links to pre-order at Amazon. We would greatly appreciate it if you use those links to order because a small percentage of each order helps keep this website running at max power. The cover art for certain titles has yet to be finalized.

Right now, Amazon has The Coen Brothers Collection Blu-ray box set on sale for only $19.49 (that’s 68% off the list price of $59.99).

The 4-disc box set contains 4 movies from Academy Award-winning directors Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, along with bonus features like audio commentary, trivia, featurettes, and more.

– Blood Simple
– Fargo
– Miller’s Crossing
– Raising Arizona
