You should, if you’re a Clint Eastwood fan. Because Warner Brothers has announced the forthcoming release of a massive retrospective box set of his work at the studio.





Clint Eastwood: 35 Films, 35 Years at Warner Bros. is set to hit stores Feb. 16 at $179.98, and will cover a large swathe of the squinting icon’s filmography, from 1968’s Where Eagles Dare to last year’s Gran Torino (which is 40 years of the icon's film journey).

It will also include Eastwood Factor, a documentary on the filmmaker by Time magazine critic Richard Schickel.

The 19-disc set will, of course, comprise the Dirty Harry pentalogy, as well as his Oscar-festooned works like Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby. It also has some of his not-so-classics, like the geriatrics-in-orbit Space Cowboys and the orangutan buddy comedy Every Which Way But Loose.





But the real gems that make this set worthwhile are the truly excellent films scattered throughout his career that weren’t made during his much-revered Philip Rothian late-life burst of creativity. Like Bird, his beautiful biopic of Charlie Parker; White Hunter, Black Heart, his thinly veiled biopic of John Huston; the emotionally draining A Perfect World; and The Outlaw Josey Wales, which demonstrated an interest in deconstructing the genre that made him famous, the Western, way before Unforgiven.

It’s a hell of a deal for any Eastwood fan. The only negative is it’s not available on Blu-ray.







It's being touted as the largest ever DVD box set featuring a single artist. But it's not the biggest DVD box set ever. For info about that, you have to go here :-

When did the dude out of The Wraith have a shotgun? It has been awhile since I watched it admittedly. Its long over due for a decent release. Might rewatch it seeing as I can't recall the shotgun :)

Releasing on Blu-ray sometime in mid-late 2010...



In an interview with the L.A. Times over the weekend, actress Sigourney Weaver revealed that she's going to be recording brand new audio commentary tracks for each of the four 'Alien' films - tracks that will be added to Fox's nearly complete 'Alien' Anthology Blu-ray box set.

We've confirmed this news with our industry sources, who have also informed us that the box set is going to blow away fans of the previous DVD Quadrilogy.

Not only have all of those previous extras have been included, but TONS of new material has been added as well exclusively for the Blu-ray release - extras that should make the BD WELL worth upgrading to.

The set will be released in mid-to-late 2010.
