Blu-Ray Deal of the Week: 68% Off The Die Hard 1-5 Collection


The Die Hard movies are basically Hollywood royalty. The action franchise made a superstar out of Bruce Willis and as we've seen with the fifth film in the series, A Good Day to Die Hard, they continue to make a mint at the box office. But they're also legitimately great, balls-to-the-wall action movies, especially those early ones, and now you can get the entire collection for a whopping 68% off. This week's blu-ray deal is the 10-Disc Die Hard Collection for only $31.99, that's barely more than $3 per disc. Pretty awesome. For that you get all five Die Hard movies plus the unrated versions of Live Free or Die Hard and A Good Day to Die Hard.

It's a great deal, so order yours here today!  We appreciate the support you continue to show our sponsors as it helps us a great deal. Punch Drunk Critics earns a small fee every time one of our readers buys from any of our links.

'X-men: Days of Future Past' Extended Version Confirmed for 2015


Good news for fans of Marvel's merry mutants, the X-men. Earlier this year a director's cut Blu-Ray release of X-men: Days of Future Past was teased for later this year by producer Lauren Schuler Donner. Well now it has been confirmed by 20th Century Fox's EVP of marketing communications, James Finn, but it won't be arriving until 2015.

The fan who tweeted the question asked specifically about the deleted scenes involving Anna Paquin's Rogue, and it looks like those will be put back in for this extended version. Her part had been much bigger and more elaborate than the brief cameo she had in the theatrical cut, and it reportedly had her being rescued by Iceman, Professor X, and Magneto. Bryan Singer commented he felt the scene was extraneous and a drag on momentum, and given the vast number of characters already in the film he was probably right.

The timing of this announcement is curious, though, because the regular version of X-men: Days of Future Past will be available digitally on September 23rd, followed by a Blu-Ray release on October 14th. So you might as well just wait a few months to get all of the extra goodies.

Director's Cut of 'X-men: Days of Future Past' to Hit Blu-Ray This Year


With about a million mutants running around across three timelines, there were bound to be some significant edits to Bryan Singer's X-men: Days of Future Past. And most of them we already know about, such as a couple of scenes involving Rogue (Anna Paquin) which were almost entirely removed, and also Halle Berry's Storm was meant to have a slightly larger part to play. Fortunately for fans who want to see everything that Singer envisioned, they will get their chance when the Blu-Ray releases later this year.

Producer Lauren Shuler Donner responded to a fan's tweet with the confirmation of an X-men: Days of Future Past director's cut that will include those removed scenes...
She doesn't provide anymore details and it's unlikely we'll learn more for awhile as the film is still performing very well in theaters. It's the top-grossing domestic release of the year at $227M and has earned $724M worldwide, so expect X-men: Days of Future Past to be a hot Blu-Ray package in the coming months. In fact, if you want to pre-order the exclusive edition complete with a replica Magneto helmet, simply go here.

Check Out 'The Lego Movie' Blu-Ray Short Film 'History Cops'



Is there anything Phil Lord and Chris Miller have gotten wrong yet in their careers? Ever move they've made has been golden, and this year promises to be their best yet. This weekend will see the release of 22 Jump Street, which is looking like it may surpass the original hit film at the box office and in critical response. But they've already done pretty well for themselves with The Lego Movie, which came out of nowhere, racked up $460M, and is considered by many to be the animated jewel of 2014.

While they won't be directing the sequel, handing the reins over to Chris McKay, a special feature from The Lego Movie's upcoming Blu-Ray serves as a reminder of why that film was so beloved. Lord and Miller wrote and directed this faux-trailer for Michaelangelo and Lincoln: History Cops, with Will Forte reprising the voice of Lincoln. It's pretty funny, and one more reason to pick up The Lego Movie when it hits shelves June 17th.
