Finally, the pick of the week. I’ve never seen Airheads, but the strength of Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure and This Is Spinal Tap are enough for me to choose “Music Appreciate 101” as this week’s top pick.
"Flash Gordan," but not on Amazon.
This Tuesday is also home to a Best Buy-exclusive release of the pilot episode of the new Flash Gordan.
