Blu-ray Releases: June 14, 2011
I’m not sure what it was like for you during the E3 event last week but I can guarantee that we here at PSNation were incredibly busy bringing you all the hottest news, rumors and impressions – I hope you enjoyed it. It was great to see E3 continue to evolve into the event that it so richly deserves but I for one am ready for a break. Short of actually playing some games, as opposed to watching or writing about them, I can think of no better way to “relax” than with a 2-3 hour suspension of disbelief.

Although I don’t feel there are any must-haves this week, there are a number of titles that have caught my eye – interestingly, not because the movie is or looks any good.
Here’s a good example – Red Riding Hood looks like a clone of the Twilight movies; and you’d have to prop my eyes open like A Clockwork Orange to watch any of those. But because it has the beautiful Amanda Seyfried I can’t help but be interested. Seriously, have you seen her in the movie Chloe?
Next up we’ve got a little movie called Battle Los Angeles. Sure, I saw this movie in the theater. It wasn’t half bad but I also didn’t think it was half good either. However, the Blu-ray disc is advertising early access to the Resistance 3 beta. If that doesn’t pique your interest I’m not sure why you’re logging into a gaming website.
Finally, there’s Point Break. Yes, this movie was absolutely ridiculous. Yes, Keanu Reeves is incapable of acting his way out of a cardboard box. And yes – God Yes! – it includes the over-the-top acting of Gary Busey. Still, for reasons I cannot quite comprehend, I’m drawn to this movie – like an unemployed surfer to a righteous wave. Then again, similar to another Patrick Swayze movie that graced an earlier version of the PSNation Blu-ray release schedule, it is absolutely ripe with memorable movie quotes.
The choice is all yours.
