In my humble opinion, Spielberg’s career has only improved the older he gets, as he continually takes on challenging material and spins it into entertaining films....

New Blu-Ray Releases: ‘Creed II’, ‘The Favourite’, ‘The Craft’, ‘Burning’, ‘Skinner’, ‘The Standoff At Sparrow Creek’, ‘Between Worlds’ Last month, Samsung announced they would no longer produce Blu-ray players. It gave physical media fans – like me, and presumably you, if you’re reading this column – pause. The reasoningcouldbe because Samsung’s 4K technology has been subpar in compared to others.
