Comments The Undertaker’s Wrestlemania winning streak ends at this event, at the hands of Brock Lesnar. The exclusive release comes with a 65-page book on the event and a WWE trading card. For some reason, Amazon has split the digital release into a collection of episodes based on the matches and major segments in the event.

Finally, the picks of the week. Blaine says, “get either the Treasure of Sierra Madre / Maltese Falcon double feature or hold out for a long list of awesome stuff coming in June.” Alex says, “I was interested in seeing Her coming into this week, but the release of Richard II has also caught my interest as well.”

    • The problem with “uncut” and “unrated” is, it could be anything. It might be even more salacious material– or it could be more lingering views of grayscale streets. The uncut / director’s cut version of The Last Picture Show (a great film, mind you) adds a few minutes of footage; most of these aren’t particularly significant. Heck, they could add sped-up footage of people playing ping-pong to Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, not resubmit it for rating, and sell it as Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm: The Unrated Version.
