Heavy Metal arrived Saturday and the PQ was much better than expected. The new Atmos mix is nice, too. Trying to avoid that Cabin steelbook double-dip but I love the movie.
I've never been a fan of the Jackass movies or TV show, but I feel inclined to see this new one. I kinda feel like it's exactly the movie we all need right now.
Oh wow, this is a big week for me; Only Yesterday Steelbook, Tale of Princess Kaguya Steelbook, and Cabin in the Woods Steelbook. My wallet once again cries.
