Morning, Bits readers! We’ve got some big release news for you today, which we’ll get to in just a moment. First though, we’ve got more new disc reviews for you, including…

Stephen’s thoughts on Dennis Dugan’s Happy Gilmore (1996) in 4K from Kino Lorber Studio Classics, George A. Romero’s The Dark Half (1993) in 4K from Vinegar Syndrome, and Lawrence Kasdan’s Silverado (1985) in 4K Steelbook from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.

Stuart’s look at John Avildsen’s Save the Tiger (1973) and Edward Sedgwick’s Father Brown, Detective (1934) on Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics, and Michael Curtiz’s Bright Leaf (1950) on Blu-ray from the Warner Archive Collection.

Dennis’ take on Alain Guiraudie’s Misericordia (2024) on Blu-ray from Criterion’s Premieres line.

And finally, Tim’s look at Monk: Season Eight (2009) on Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics, along with Wong Jing’s (aka Wang Tsing) Mercenaries from Hong Kong (1982) from Arrow Video’s Shawscope: Volume Two Blu-ray box set.

And even more reviews are on the way for next week, so be sure to check back then!

All right, let’s get right to today’s big news, which we’re reporting here exclusively on The Digital Bits: Lionsgate will finally release Kevin Smith’s Dogma (1999) in 4K Ultra HD in December! [Read on here...]

We’ve got a couple of good things to share with you today, starting with new discs reviews. Among them are…

My look at John Ford’s legendary Western classic The Searchers (1956) in 4K Ultra HD from the Warner Archive, an absolutely stunning title that I think deserves to be considered the 4K Disc of the Year.

Stephen’s review of Sydney Pollack’s Tootsie (1982) in 4K Ultra HD from Sony via their excellent Columbia Classics: Volume 5 box set, as well as David Chung’s Royal Warriors (1986) on Blu-ray from 88 Films.

And Dennis’ review of Buster Keaton’s Seven Chances (1925) and Sherlock Jr. (1924) on Blu-ray from Kino Classics.

All three are well worth a look, and we’re going to have more new disc reviews here on Wednesday.

Also today, our own Michael Coate has just shared a new History, Legacy & Showmanship column today featuring film historian and author Nat Segaloff as they celebrate the 50th anniversary of John Guillermin’s The Towering Inferno (1974). It’s a short read, but still well worth your time. [Read on here...]
