Awesome Blu-ray

There’s no way on earth (or heaven) that we could skip Jesus Christ, Vampire Hunter; heck, it’s being released on Blu-ray. Is there a plot? Who freaking cares? It’s Jesus kicking unholy butt!

As if the regular Dark Knight Blu-ray version wasn’t compelling enough, this two-disc limited edition set is available 12/9 and comes with a Bat Pod and display stand: daddy wants.

Hurting over the lack of a Blu-ray drive on those new MacBooks? AMEX’s Blu-ray Super Multi Drive has your back; the portable unit will even do Blu-ray recording for an extra Benjamin.

The Iron Man Blu-ray edition (avail. 9/30) packs more punch than a flame-throwing robotic suit. Our favorite extra is the Hall of Armor, which displays 3D schematics of suits and weapons.
