Skyfall-

Bond Store Exclusives-
When Bond 50 came out they also released all of the films on single discs. That being said, all of the new to blu-ray discs where exclusive to either Best Buy, Target or Walmart. Starting on Tuesday these films will now be available everywhere else. I really don’t think this is that big of a deal because it has still been fairly easy to pick up these films already. Still if you have not had a chance to pick up one of the previously unreleased Bond Blu-ray’s now you can order them on Amazon.
The Perks of Being a Wildflower-

As you can probably guess I really have no desire to pick this one up. This just looks like another run of the mill teenage drama, although it does have a very good IMDB rating as it is on the low end of the Top 250 and has a good rating on Rotten Tomatoes as well. Still I’m not sure this would be a week one Blu-ray purchase for anyone outside of fans of the film. This is a rental at best for me.
The Man with the Iron Fists-

Summary-
All in all this is a pretty slow week for Blu-ray releases outside of Skyfall. I recommend you go ahead and order your copy of that now or pick it up in stores on Tuesday but you can hold off on the rest of the releases this week. Looking ahead, next week looks loaded with great releases so hold on to your money till then.
