Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “On the 4K front, while part of me wants to go with the Project A collection, Brick is one of my absolute favorite films, and I’m going with that instead. On the anime side, Panzer World Galient looks fun.” Blaine says, “both Babylon 5 and Doctor Who releases are must-own content, although both have been released in other formats before.”

  1. If you like historical dramas, The Crown is well-acted and has fantastic production value. Around the time Diana appears, the show starts becoming more soap-opera (which is true to life).

    I’ve heard Alien: Romulus isn’t fantastic, but it seems to rank #3 in the series, which is promising.

    Edit: Adding Wild Robot to my to-watch list. I’ve heard good things about it.

    • I would agree with that assessment of The Crown. I found I liked the earlier episodes and I skipped a few of the later ones (though my wife watched them), but found myself more interested again in the final season.

      • I will say, it did make me want to dive more into the life of Edward VIII. I remember hearing how he “left the throne for love” when the backstory seems to be much, much darker.
