Where is a good place to buy physical media? I recently got a Blu Ray player and have been picking up some movies and a couple of shows. If I'm really honest about it the selection seems kind of limited. I've been browsing Gruv anr Amazon.
Might just be me not remembering how to shop for movies though. If so any pointers?
My local thrift stores have literally everything I could want and for .5-2$
I check new releases here:
https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/releasedates.php
Then, once I know what I want, I run it down either through Amazon or directly from the publisher.
Good indie physical publishers:
Arrow:

(Their Shaw Brothers sets are amazing!)
Criterion:
https://www.criterion.com/
Shout Factory:
https://shoutfactory.com
Kino Lorber:
https://kinolorber.com
Vinegar Syndrome:

BFI:

Goodwill often has a selection as do garrage sales.
Second-hand stores, bookstores, and sometimes even libraries
