Completely agree, Disney do short change in this area with the marvel bluray with a lack of digital copy for Uk/Europe
Funny that's exactly what I said lol.

Lou Diamond Phillips's is superbly likeable as Richie Valens,tragically killed in 1959 at age 17 along with Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper.The film is a sentimental but hugely enjoyable account of Valens' tough upbringing,relentless dedication to music and fued with his father who disapproved of his girlfriend.Nicely remastered picture and soundtrack add to this underated gem.
Extras :
Commentaries
Making of featurette
Music videos
Also recommend Tower Of London(1962)
Roger Corman takes on Shakespeare with great results.Vincent Price is wonderfully devious as power hungry Richard of Gloucester,who kills way to the throne but ends up being consumed by his own guilt.It all looks stunning on remastered blue ray HD.
Extras :
Commentary

Picked up Falling Skies seasons 1-4, this is one of the better Sci-fi tv series, and the boxset comes with plenty of extras.

Highly recommend Mildred Pirece(1945)
Bought it from a local market for £6.
A Michael Curtis film noir melodrama adapted from James M.Cain's novel.Joan Crawford is as a doting mother whose struggles to keep balance of her career,relationships with men and her daughter. The blu ray transfer is so crisp too,its never looked better.
