I’m ready to put on a leisure suite, hang the disco ball, and live with this movie for a month, much less a week.

You’ll likely never see me not pick a Coen Brothers’ movie as my Pick of the Week.

Only Dylan could get so many talented artists to come together and create such incredible music together.

An excellent pocket resource.

It’s the kind of thing Academy voters eat up as they obviously did last night.

A nice send-off to the Eleventh Doctor, just not a great one.

Pretty much any toddler will no doubt love it.

The trailers look stunning.

They decided to make some pretty big changes in order to set themselves apart.

They do an amazing job of bringing these characters and the huge scope of their stories to the screen.

It’s absolutely worth upgrading to this Criterion disk.

A lovely film though overly long and slightly racist to modern eyes.

The Internet has got me excited about something and that excitement gets passed around and shared.

The Blu-ray has its flaws, but this is likely the best version we’re ever going to see of it.

Highly recommended.

Vera: Set 3 is a well-made, well-drawn series that would make an excellent part of anyone’s mystery set.

A recipe for my Pick of the Week.

A well-made, atmospheric, beautiful series from Jane Campion.

I pretty much make all of his new releases my Pick of the Week.

A lovely portrait of real characters with real problems played realistically.

Over two hours worth of sketches that are sure to keep any ankle biter enthralled.

Because it features one of the most tense, carefully crafted scenes in all of cinema.

Apologies for those who love their rednecked water-fowl, and foul-mouthed animated spies.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt attempts to deal with how fantasy worlds collide with our real ones, causing untold problems and unhappiness.

I like Gordon-Levitt a good deal, and it’s impossible not to watch Scarlett Johansson in anything she does.

The movie is good and representative of this classic period of Hollywood filmmaking.

It looks to be an intense, violent, really good bit of cinema.

It’s compelling stuff that’s both fun thrilling and meaningful.

Though a bit dated and terribly inaccurate, it is a joy to watch and is immensely entertaining.

A recommendation from Scorsese and the Criterion people makes this collection an easy choice.

The film comes highly recommended.

A very nicely priced set of a really wonderful show.

A pick to be thankful for.

A straight-up classic Tom Baker-era Who.

A pretty grand thing when you get down to it.

To say that when it came out on DVD it would be my Pick of the Week would be putting it exactly.

It’s good, but not nearly good enough.

A terrific bit of television.

It stands right up there with my all-time favorites.

Quite charming in its own way.

Spiral Season 2 is fantastic television.

A classic American film about classic Americans gets the nod.

A truly remarkable bit of history.

Despite quite a few flaws, The Johan Falk Trilogy creates some rather enjoyable popcorn viewing.

This is certainly not my most glowing Pick ever.

Unfortunately, the filmmakers decided to go for carnage and gore, and the results are as dull as can be.

If you like b-grade vampire movies, this one’s pretty well done.

This isn’t a show-off disk, unless by showing off one means presenting high-definition celebrity nudity.

It’s probably my favorite Christmas movie ever.
