It's amazing to believe but it's been ten years since Christopher Nolan's science fiction epic Interstellar hit theaters. On November 7th the film returns to theaters with a new three-disc Limited Edition Collector's Edition on December 10th.
Academy Award®-winning* director Christopher Nolan’s landmark epic INTERSTELLAR celebrates its 10th anniversary this year and Paramount Pictures is marking the occasion with a 10th Anniversary IMAX Exclusive Limited Engagement on December 6, 2024, with tickets going on sale November 7. In addition, a Collector’s Edition 4K Ultra HD set will arrive on December 10, 2024.
A transcendent science fiction drama, INTERSTELLAR became a cultural phenomenon, thrilling audiences and critics with its “enthralling” (Rolling Stone) exploration of humanity’s future through a story that is “intelligent as well as epic” (Los Angeles Times). Acclaimed for its scientific accuracy, INTERSTELLAR captured viewers’ imaginations, earning over $730 million worldwide and five Oscar® nominations, with a win for Best Visual Effects. The film features an extraordinary cast, including Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Chastain, Anne Hathaway, Matt Damon, John Lithgow, Michael Caine, Timothée Chalamet, Ellen Burstyn, Bill Irwin, Wes Bentley, David Oyelowo, Casey Affleck, and more.
Fans can revisit INTERSTELLAR with the 10th Anniversary Collector’s Edition, created with the participation and approval of Christopher Nolan. This must-own, limited-edition set includes the iconic film on both 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Disc™, as well as a third Blu-ray™ with more than two hours of new and legacy bonus content that delves into the science of the film, its groundbreaking production, and a brand-new discussion of the film’s impact 10 years later. The set also includes access to a Digital copy of the film, reproductions of five costume patches, five theatrical poster reproductions, and a never-before-seen storyboard sequence from the director’s archives.
Bonus content is detailed below:
We don't have final disc specs, they weren't listed in the press release, we expect the main discs to be reprints with the new Blu-ray housing the extra features. We've reached out though to make sure we're not seeing a new encoding of some kind.
Interstellar: 10th Anniversary - Limited Edition 4K UHD is up for pre-order now!

Sony continues to pile onto an amazing year for great 4K releases with Brad Pitt's luscious locks in Edward Zwick's epic 'The Legends of the Fall' and the classic George Stevens comedy 'Talk of the Town' starring Cary Grant and Jean Arthur. Both films score brand new 4K Dolby Vision transfers and hit shelves December 3rd.
Sony has had a hell of a year with disc releases! Celebrating Columbia Pictures' centennial, Sony keeps adding to their already impressive slate of releases with two more to kick off the month of December. On one side, you have a hilarious classic comedy, on the other you have a sweeping epic with Brad Pitt sporting a luxurious coiffure worthy of Main 'n Tail's best products. Both Talk of the Town and Legends of the Fall will feature new 4K transfers along with a healthy assortment of bonus features.
SYNOPSIS
Nora (Jean Arthur) is trying to figure out what to do about Leopold Dilg (Cary Grant), who’s landed on her doorstep looking for a safe place to hide after escaping from jail, when her summer tenant, stuffy lawyer Michael Lightcap (Ronald Coleman) arrives early to take up residence. Believing Leopold to be innocent, she stashes the wounded Dilg in the attic. Keeping Leopold hidden becomes impossible but Nora and Leopold set about to win Michael’s sympathy to Dilg’s legal plight without revealing his identity. Constant, ridiculous and comic mix-ups and mishaps threaten to destroy the trio’s friendship and potentially lead to Leopold facing a hostile mob for a crime he didn’t commit. George Stevens deftly explores corrupt small-town politics and the individual’s responsibility to society while fueling a fast-paced romantic comedy with lightness and charm.

As mentioned last week, this week and the weeks that follow this month are very busy for us collectors. If you read Matthew's 4K Guide for October, you got a sneak peek for this week, and the weeks to come.
Welcome to Volume 5 Episode 19 of our weekly release guide. A look at the highlights of what's coming to disc the week of October 6th - October 12th, as well as a look at announcements from last week.
The October wallet fatigue begins with a sum total of 24 skus to look at this week. Let's begin with UK Import Monday...
101 Films' The Sword and the Sorcerer got pushed back to November 4th.
First up, from StudioCanal's Vintage Classics line, An Inspector Calls: 70th Anniversary Edition with Alastair Sim. Thus far, many of the titles in this line have not had US releases. Wicker Man is the only one that comes to mind and the US counterpart was barebones by comparison.
Nope, not that radio program by the same name, Air America with Mel Gibson comes to us via StudioCanal's standard label.
Arrow Films closes out UK Import Monday with The Exorcist III, which also gets an Arrow UK Site Exclusive release as well, which dons the poster cover art seen on the US Shout! Factory release.
Several Domestic Tuesday New Releases to get through first.
A Quiet Place: Day One from Paramount. This one is considered the prequel/origin story to the other two films already out. You can also get this as a SteelBook Release, or if you prefer a little more of the color red, a Walmart Exclusive SteelBook.
Moving over to A24 and LionsGate, the third part of the Ti West/Mia Goth trilogy, MaXXXine. To get the first two installments in 4K you have to import them. Perhaps with this out now, maybe a domestic 4K box set will be coming (?)
Well Go USA this week has Asian thriller Exhuma. There is an English dub included for those that prefer it.
On to catalog titles, and the first one is semi-new. Not often we see a streaming platform's physical disc on a 4K new release calendar, but here we are with Arcane: League of Legends – Season One, distributed by GKIDS and Shout! Factory. You can also head over to their shop directly and get a Shop Exclusive, over the top swag induced release as well.
Universal Pictures has a couple of entries this week.
New to 4K disc, Friday Night Lights, which also is available as a SteelBook Release.
They know SteelBooks are an additional incentive for some buyers, so we get Steels of Five Nights at Freddy's - Walmart Exclusive, Halloween Trilogy (2018 - 2022) - Walmart Exclusive, The Mummy (1932) and Us / Get Out (Double Feature).
Criterion 4K RKO Pictures Double Feature with I Walked with a Zombie / The Seventh Victim: Produced by Val Lewton.
Infrequent to the weekly guide, Synapse Films offers us The Convent this week.
Shout! Factory brings us Devil (2010), directed by John Erick Dowdle and produced by M. Night Shyamalan. Also, a few weeks after the standard release, a Walmart Exclusive SteelBook of The Strangers (2008) is available.
And closing out domestic releases, last year we had a digipak, this year Sleepy Hollow gets listed as a 25th Anniversary SteelBook.
Wednesday release, Thesis drops a Collector's Edition release direct from Umbrella Entertainment. A standard release comes out next week.
Friday, if you did not directly import this last week, Amazon US has Second Sight's The Hitcher, available as a Standard Edition and a Limited Edition. Warner Bros has a domestic release in 2 weeks, but it is a barebones MOD title, no digital code and probably no slipcover. Pricing wise, both the Second Sight standard release and WB's are almost the same.
Blu-ray counterparts of the above 4K releases include (possibly region B) An Inspector Calls, Air America, domestic region A or region free releases of A Quiet Place: Day One, MaXXXine, which also has a Walmart Exclusive option, Exhuma, Arcane: League of Legends – Season One standard, as well as SteelBook, I Walked with a Zombie / The Seventh Victim: Produced by Val Lewton, The Convent and (possibly region B) The Hitcher.
From Searchlight Pictures and Sony, 2024 fantasy Kinds of Kindness.
Also from Sony, and the street date on this one is not entirely clear, but I am counting it as a Tuesday release, adventure/fantasy Harold and the Purple Crayon should be available!
Ain't it great to also get TV on HD or 4K disc? This week we can buy Interview with the Vampire: Season Two and Las Vegas: The Complete Series. Count me in for Las Vegas. Which shows would you love to see? If there were blu-ray box sets for the franchises of CSI, NCIS, Law & Order, NYPD Blue, Chicago (Dick Wolf) and other type dramas, I would be all over them, even in 5 or 10 season increments.
Anime/Animated highlights include Castlevania Nocturne - Season One, Ouran High School Host Club: The Complete Series, Red vs. Blue: Restoration and Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead - Season 1, which also comes as a Limited Edition.
Friday AU imports (via Amazon US) include:
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice will be released to blu-ray and 4K discs on November 19th.
In a short notice window, Twisters will be releasing on October 22nd.
Shout! Factory says Merry Christmas with December releases. In no particular order, 4K titles include 'Aguirre, the Wrath of God', Ted, The Holdovers, The Gift (2000), The Faculty, Riddick, Rock 'n' Roll High School, Wallace & Gromit: The Complete Cracking Collection (not all titles in 4K), Far and Away and Silent Night, Deadly Night. Blu-rays include The Dead Don't Hurt, Golden Harvest Vol. 2: Shining Stars and Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey II.
Legends of the Fall and Talk of the Town will be landing on 4K on December 3rd from Sony.
Which titles are you buying this week? Which ones are on your wishlist, be it to buy as an impulse buy or to wait for the right price?
Michael Keaton returns to one of his career-defining roles in Warner Brothers' and Tim Burton's Beetlejuice Beetlejuice arriving on 4K UHD, Glow-In-The-Dark 4K SteelBook, and Blu-ray on November 19.
Joining Keaton are Oscar nominee Winona Ryder (Stranger Things, Little Women) as Lydia Deetz and two-time Emmy winner Catherine O’Hara (Schitt's Creek, The Nightmare Before Christmas) as Delia Deetz, with new cast members Justin Theroux (Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi, The Leftovers), Monica Bellucci (Spectre, The Matrix films), Arthur Conti (House of the Dragon) in his feature film debut, with Emmy nominee Jenna Ortega (Wednesday, Scream VI) as Lydia’s daughter, Astrid, and Oscar nominee Willem Dafoe (Poor Things, At Eternity’s Gate).
Beetlejuice is back! After an unexpected family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia's life is turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic and the portal to the Afterlife is accidentally opened. With trouble brewing in both realms, it's only a matter of time until someone says Beetlejuice's name three times and the mischievous demon returns to unleash his very own brand.

After a successful run at the box office and early Theater-at-Home sales, Lee Isaac Chang's 2024 weather disaster epic 'Twisters' will suck up some of your finances for a 4K UHD, 4K SteelBook, and Blu-ray release on October 22nd. Expect Dolby Vision HDR and Atmos audio!
At this rate, there won't be a summer without Glen Powell's unflappable million-dollar smile! This follow-up to Jan De Bont's 1990s fan-favorite disaster epic proved to be a welcome summer surprise. Storming onto the busy box office, it had staying power amassing a nice global haul. Lee Isaac Chang proved the property is still a hit with fans without drenching the entire film in silly memberberry callbacks. I for one had a great time with this one at IMAX for a pair of viewings on the large screen format. Starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glen Powell, the big storm hits home on 4K and Blu-ray! There is a Walmart-exclusive SteelBook on the way, but at the moment it's out of stock online. Hopefully, they've allocated plenty for in-store shoppers.
Here's what we're getting with this set:

The Warner Archive Collection has revealed six new Blu-ray releases coming in November. They are Humoresque (1946), Wait Till Your Father Gets Home (1972-74): The Complete Series, That's Entertainment! (1974), Must Love Dogs (2005), The Complete Thin Man Collection (1934-47), and Looney Tunes Collector's Choice: Volume 4.
All six will be available for purchase on November 26.
Humoresque (1946) - Warner Archive Collection
Glamorous socialite Helen Wright (Joan Crawford) takes what she wants – clothes, alcohol, men – uses them up and tosses them aside. Then she meets brilliant young violinist Paul Boray (John Garfield). But this is one toy she can’t break. Instead, her love for Paul brings Helen to the breaking point. In this acclaimed and profound exploration of desire, Crawford makes Helen a rich, layered character torn between selfless love and selfish impulses Garfield matches her as the driven genius. Humoresque’s production values extend to the musical interludes, dubbed by Isaac Stern. Garfield’s dazzling technique is thanks to two real violinists hidden behind him -one to do the fingering and one the bow work. Bravo! New 2024 1080p HD master from 4K scan of the Original Nitrate Camera Negative.
Wait Till Your Father Gets Home (1972-74): The Complete Series - Warner Archive Collection
The Age of Aquarius dawned. Harry Boyle forgot to set his alarm. Inspired by the era of live-action TV series such as All in The Family comes the Hanna-Barbera generation-gap animated comedy Wait Till Your Father Gets Home. Tom Bosley provides the voice of Harry, an affable 40-something Everyman and suburban father of three whose daily routine is anything but when he faces the provocative questions of the make-love-not-war era. Women’s Lib, civil rights, hippies, sexuality, communes and the Cold War are some of the hot button petals in this series’ flower-powered laugh-fest. They’re all part of Harry’s world, where a man’s home is his hassle. This complete series set of two seasons and 48 episodes, is highlighted by guest voice appearances from Monty Hall, Don Knotts, Phyllis Diller and Rich Little. New 2024 1080pHD masters from 4K scans of the original camera negatives.
That's Entertainment! (1974) - Warner Archive Collection
M-G-M marked its 50th anniversary with this outstanding collection of musical performances from the studio’s reign as the king of the genre during Hollywood’s golden era. Drawing from more than 100 feature films, writer/producer/director Jack Haley Jr.’s compilation took the box-office by storm, becoming one of the highest grossing films of 1974, and brought excerpts from timeless gems from "An American in Paris" to "Ziegfeld Follies to audiences new and old in just 135 magical minutes. For this special occasion, Haley called upon great stars to ‘host’ this brilliantly conceived cinematic event: Fred Astaire, Bing Crosby, Gene Kelly, Peter Lawford, Liza Minnelli, Donald O’Connor, Debbie Reynolds, Mickey Rooney, Frank Sinatra, James Stewart and Elizabeth Taylor. This celebration of the M-G-M musical has been painstakingly remastered from the best existing elements to yield a new presentation that finally does justice to Haley's dazzling cinematic achievement, which cemented the importance of the M-G-M musical's unique place in film history. NEW 2024 1080p HD remaster, re-constructed from original negatives and preservation elements
Must Love Dogs (2005) - Warner Archive Collection
Pretty pre-school teacher Sarah Nolan (Diane Lane) is divorced, demoralized and dateless – until her sister posts her profile at perfectmatch.com. Now she has lots of dates. With weirdos, weepers, lechers, jocks, and Jake (John Cusack), a soulful boat builder whose idea of true love come straight out of Doctor Zhivago. Jake is attractive, smart and maybe a bit too intense. So Sarah passes him by. And maybe passes up her one real chance for love. With a witty script and irresistible stars (including Christopher Plummer as Sarah’s widowed dad, weaving his own worldwide web of romance, and Stockard Channing as his new lady friend), this romantic comedy is as delightful a surprise as a perfect blind date. Don’t miss out: love could be just a mouse click away!

Set in the glamorous world of 1930s and 40s upper-class Manhattan, The Thin Man and its sequels established a timeless standard for witty comedy, clever dialogue and urbane one upmanship. The 6-Disc set includes THE THIN MAN (1934), AFTER THE THIN MAN (1936), ANOTHER THIN MAN (1939), SHADOW OF THE THIN MAN (1941), SONG OF THE THIN MAN (1944) and THE THIN MAN GOES HOME (1947).

After terrorizing theatergoers with a barrage of trailers and a successful box-office take, James Watkins' 2024 thriller 'Speak No Evil' arrives on Blu-ray November 19th - Digital rental/sell-through October 1st!
James McAvoy once again dials up the creepiness for James Watkins' 2024 thriller Speak No Evil. No doubt, if you went to the theater at least once in the last six months you probably saw at least three trailers for this film. Over-marketing aside, the film is actually a solid, well-made remake of the 2022 Danish thriller Gæsterne. While the film is still in theaters (and performing relatively well), Universal is pulling something of a Fall Guy and ushering the film onto digital rental and sell-through platforms on October 1st with a Blu-ray disc release due November 19th. "Why no 4K?" you might ask, we have no idea. But, if past is prologue, expect an international 4K disc down the line before a domestic release later on.
Here's what's coming our way:

Welcome to the first week of October. Relatively slow start to the month for video releases. For a lot of us, October means Halloween, horror movies, and all the jazz! Visited your local Spirit Halloween yet?
And speaking of Spirit Halloween, SNL did a skit about it. Want a laugh? Check it out!
Welcome to Volume 5 Episode 18 of our weekly release guide. A look at the highlights of what's coming to disc the week of September 29th - October 5th, as well as a look at announcements from last week.
Believe it or not, there are only TWO new SKUS this week in the 4K category and they're both appropriately themed for October.
First up, very recent release Imaginary gets a 4K Amazon Exclusive SteelBook. There is no standard edition 4K available, and as with so many Blumhouse releases, they dropped a blu-ray only release on the original release day, making us wonder if a 4K was en route any time soon, or at all.
Paramount offers up another box set of various titles, that would be Paramount Scares Vol. 2. No mystery movie this go round, but it is priced right for four decent films.
Coming off retailer exclusive, The Blob (1988) SteelBook gets a general release.
Next week is like night and day. Instead of two releases, there are roughly twenty when you also count the imports.
Blu-ray counterparts of the above 4K releases? Not this week. We pretty much already got them!
Import Monday has a few that might interest you. Always keep in mind though that they may be region B locked, and not playable on your setup.
Anime highlights include To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts (Monday release, standard edition CrunchyRoll Store Exclusive) and the Tuesday release of Outbreak Company: Complete Collection.
Shout Factory blu-ray horror arrives with As Above, So Below: Collector's Edition.
TV on disc this week, and it's a pretty big one, The West Wing: The Complete Series. Talk about good timing.
Last week was a pretty busy week for announcements. In addition to the boutique label onesie twosies, and the leaks of Shout Factory's next batch, a few major ones are below.
Alien: Romulus will be coming to blu-ray and 4K on December 3rd from 20th Century Studios.
Deadpool & Wolverine is getting several choices for blu-ray and 4K releases on October 22nd. Both Alien: Romulus and Deadpool & Wolverine have been rumored to have Dolby Vision on them despite what the press release says, and new titles going forward as well. But this is as reported by an entertainment writer on Forbes, so accept it with a grain of salt. If true, this is very good news, now hopefully BD100s when needed.
All restaurants are Taco Bell, right? Arrow Video's December releases include 4K editions of Demolition Man, The Great Escape and The Addiction, blu-ray of The Last Video Store, a UK 4K of The Good, the Bad, the Weird, and a snazzy blu-ray box set of Critters 1-4.
I Love Lucy: The Complete Series will be coming to blu-ray on on November 5th.
Which titles are you buying this week? Which ones are on your wishlist, be it to buy as an impulse buy or to wait for the right price?
