Top 10 Blu-ray Releases for December 15

hangover300‘Boogie Nights,’ Tarantino’s ‘Basterds’ and ‘The Hangover’ highlight this week’s selections.

This week’s batch of Blu-ray releases offer quality over quantity. Unlike some weeks, there aren’t a big slew of choices. But there are several solid picks to make for some worthwhile viewing.

It’s always noteworthy when Quentin Tarantino makes a film, and while ‘Inglourious Basterds’ is certainly no ‘Pulp Fiction’ it does have its share of entertaining moments and the usual eyebrow-raising storytelling that the director has become known for. Plus Brad Pitt offers up another quality performance, as does Christoph Waltz as the movie’s main villain.

Coming off the heels of Tarantino’s success in the mid-90s, Paul Thomas Anderson began delivering equally entertaining epics. His breakthrough film ‘Boogie Nights’ hits Blu-ray this week, with its fast-paced look at the porn industry of the 70s and 80s. Should be a winner for your sound system, too, with a classic 70s soundtrack setting the tone for the movie.

If you’re looking for something a little lighter, or a lot lighter, check out ‘The Hangover,’ which could make a strong case as funniest movie of the year. And if that’s not enough humor for you, there’s an enormous Mel Brooks Collection due out this week that ought to keep you laughing for days featuring nine movies.

Here is the full release schedule for the week, courtesy of Blu-ray.com (movie synopses and information also courtesy of their website):

CE Pros Want to be ‘Green’ Installers

integrators_green_researchA staggering 87% say they’ll offer alternative energy products within three years.

Have you started harnessing solar energy in installs? Many of you expect to.

The results of this study by EH Research are somewhat predictable — but encouraging nonetheless.

CE pros were asked about the prospects of them selling and installing energy-efficient products such as energy dashboards, solar/photovoltaic panels and wind turbines. An overwhelming number envisions that they will very soon. For instance, 87 percent of those surveyed say that will offer alternative energy products and/or energy management and monitoring systems within three years.

The positive answers to these questions should probably be taken with a grain of salt. It’s kind of like if your friend tells you that he recently took up mixed martial arts (MMA) training, and that he lost 10 pounds and feels more energetic.

If somebody then asks you if you’ll take up MMA training in the next three years, you’d probably answer in the affirmative. Would you really do it? That’s less certain.
