Yesterday I received Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Season One in a three-disc Limited Edition steelbook case.

It was originally scheduled to arriveContinue reading “On Movies & Movie Collections: ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Season One’ Warps into My Blu-ray Collection”

On My To-Be-Watched (TBW) List: Even though I have an extensive movie collection on Blu-ray and DVD (105 4K UHD Blu-rays. 526 2K Blu-rays, and 248 DVDs), I don’t have a literal TBW stack.
