Now then... here’s the other big news today: The final four films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe not yet released on 4K Ultra HD are now coming to the format on 10/1. (Note that Spider-Man: Far From Home isn’t officially announced yet, but retail sources tell us it’s coming on that date too.) Meanwhile, here are the Amazon pre-order links for Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), Ant-Man (2015), and Doctor Strange (2016)...
And one final thing today... the D23 Expo is now underway in Anaheim, CA and the first official trailer for The Mandalorian is set to be released there this afternoon. We’ll post it here as soon as it’s online...
That’s all for now! Have a great weekend and see you back here on Monday. Stay tuned...
