Finally, the picks of the week. Blaine says, “the Darabont collection is great, I assume, having only seen two of the three titles. Big Hero 6 is also on my must-see list.” Alex says, “Space Brothers is available for legal streaming on Crunchyroll.com, so you can try the show out before you buy. If that doesn’t catch your eye, there’s Big Hero 6 and the Criterion Collection release of Watership Down.”

One reply

  1. Big Hero 6 wins the week, hands down. And be sure to watch the after credits scene. The credits are loooooooong, but at least on disc they can be fast forwarded through. It’s great!
