Hello, and welcome. The 2022 edition of my Top 15 Home Video Releases will be briefer than past editions because I am unusually busy. However, there were quite a few interesting releases this year that I wanted to highlight. As a caveat, same as in previous years, I have not, and will not see everything […]
Read more "Top 15 Physical Releases of 2022"First, foremost, and as always, no, I have not watched every new release from 2021, nor do I want to.
