Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “Whatever you buy this week, please, for the love of whatever you believe in, do not buy the Blu-Ray release of Fist of Fear, Touch of Death. Let that movie die.” Blaine says, “I’ll own Star Wars someday, but it’ll still be available when non-essential shopping is a thing again.”
