Highly recommend His Girl Friday(1940)

Bought if from a local monday market for £8.

Howard Hawk's newspaper comedy/romance based on the 1920s play,The Front Page remastered gloriously for blu ray.Great work from Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell.Wisecracks and Hawk's trademark overlapping dialogue make this a true joy to watch and a sense they you are in the need room with them.

Extras :

The Front Page(1931)full movie
Documentary
Featurettes
Howard Hawks interview
Radio versions
I know it's been out for a while but I highly recommend picking up Birdman on Blu Ray not only does the film look great on Blu Ray but it sounds great too and it's great to see Michael Keaton again on the big screen.
Extras wise there's all access on the film, a conversation with Michael Keaton and Alejandro G. Iñárritu and gallery plus you get a digital copy of film which you can pick up all for a fiver.
A good pic for fans of director Takashi Mike,Black Society Trilogy(1995-1999)

I bought it from WHSmith's for £20.

Shinjuku Triad Society(1995)

Rainy Dog(1997)

Let Lines(199)

An ultra violent,shocking,weird but watchable trilogy from Takashi Mike.Also notable that as a trilogy there are no recurring characters and themes other than being films related to triad activities. Of the three,Rainy Dog is the strongest but all have moments of true brilliance despite a tiny amount of self indulgence.

Extras :

Audio commentaries(each film)
Interviews(each film)
Driller Killer(1979)

Bought if from a Sunday market in York for £6.

Abel Ferrara's exploration debut sees the director himself play a painter in New York finally snap due to the constant criticism he receives regarding his work,his mounting debt and the crappy punk band thst frequently disturb him.Fully uncut and still as nasty as when it was banned in the early 80s.

Extras :

Commentary
Documentary
Visual essay
Interviews
Banshee season 2 - i managed to get this for £4, one of my favourite tv shows it comes with plenty of extras including deleted scenes, audio commentaries, and video blogs.

Highly recommended.
Had this for a couple months but I highly recommend the DC animated movie Blu Ray Justice League Vs Teen Titans I chose the steel book version.
You get some good art work on the front and back with a matt finish it would have looked great with a gloss finish you also get inside art work all tho it's a little dark.
Picture quality wise as always a 1080p transfer and it looks crystal clear which helps highlight the animation. The sound quality is a 5.1 DTS-HD and sounds great.
Extras you get 3 featurettes, plus two bonus cartoons and a sneak peek at Batman: The Killing Joke, you also get a digital copy of the movie. Well work picking Up especially the steel book version.
I recommend The Missing Series 2(2016)

I bought it from Granger Games for £20.

A really well put together thriller series with brilliant acting from a talented ensemble cast including Keeley Hawes and David Morrissey.

Extras :

Making of featurette
Photo gallery
Highly recommend Metropolis(2001)

I bought the steelbook version from Granger Games for £10.

Created by screenwriter Katsuhiro Ôtomo,manga artist Osamu Tezuka and director Rintaro based on Fritz Lang's 1927 film.

The visuals are utterly jaw dropping on blu ray all backed up with the remastered soundtrack including Ray Charles' version of I Can't Stop Loving You.

Extras :

Making of
Interviews
Doctor Strange (3D)

Comes on 2 discs. One disc has the 3D version of the film. The second disc has the 2D version of the film along with plenty of extras including play with introduction, featutettes, Marvel Phase 3 exclusive look, deleted & extended scenes, Blooper Reel & commentary from the director
The only thing I don't like about what Disney do with the Marvel Blu Ray films is that they short change is with leaving us without a digital copy where as the American comes with one.
