Episode 272: Open Sesame For Laika, Labyrinth and Keaton

Movie Madness

Black Friday and Christmas are coming up, so what better time to talk up some Blu-rays you may want to add to your wish lists. Erik Childress and Sergio Mims discuss a great documentary that should be on everyone’s shelves about one of the greatest television shows ever produced. For the kids Shout Factory has a whole lineup of new Laika packages and the pair also get into who is a Labyrinth guy and who is a Dark Crystal guy. Paramount has some great 4K titles including two-thirds of the original Star Trek movies and one of the most successful horror films to be released during the holidays. Sergio also pushes back on the criticism of the new 4K of Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds and runs down a bunch of new stuff from Warner Archive including the long-awaited debut of one of the great comic debuts ever.
