Had Akira for week or so, but no other purchases for next week. Futurama is an eventual rental.

The Bird With The Crystal Plumage

Netflixing Vanishing Point.

Might get Akira if I can find it ass cheap. (which I probably won't)

Futurama is a rental this time around. The last two were horrible.

French Connection would be an automatic purchase for me, but I'm very worried about all of the things I've heard about Friedkin's revisionist transfer. I'll have to wait for reviews.

Buy:

Futurama: ITWGY

Rent:

What Just Happened
French Connection

I would be buying Ronin but I can't tell if it's actually out or not on the 24th.

Sex Drive. Highly recommended comedy :)

Vanishing Point. Gotta have it.

Pass on French Conn, but i'll get French Conn II since I don't own it. Reviews on French Conn seem to indicate that BD doesn't do much to help the picture. I'm find with my 5-Star edition.

Futurama.

Possibly the French Connection at a later date.

I was interested in purchasing Ronin, but after reading the review at dvdbeaver, which states it's identical to the Japanese release (mpeg-2 transfer and zero extras), I'll pass.

I'll be renting:

Sex Drive
Hounddog

Will rent Akira first and then make a decision based on that.

Probably just Sex Drive.

That has got to be one of the weakest release weeks in the sort history of Blu-Ray. It is a money saving week for me.
