On Reddit we have r/dvdcollection, r/boutiquebluray, r/4kbluray, r/steelbook, r/vhs, etc but let's start simply with a community to cover all the forms of home video collecting.

So, do you feel nostalgic for a format? Are you looking forward to a release? Heard any exciting news? Want to show us your shelves? Then post away.

It's a lot, a quick selection:

We’re just warming up here… the British Film Institute (BFI) has just set a physical 4K Ultra HD release of Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (1954) for release on 10/21 in the UK. Note that we expect the Criterion Collection to release it here in the States in November or December.

Speaking of the BFI, we’ve also learned that they’re finally releasing their once cancelled Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD editions of Martin Rosen’s animated Watership Down (1978). Look for them to street on November 11.

...

Finally today, we’ve saved some of the best news for last: The good folks at Shout! Studios have just unveiled more of their planned October Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD release slate (for Shout! Factory, Scream Factory, etc)! Look for this to include John Erick Dowdle’s As Above, So Below (2014) on Blu-ray and Chuck Russell’s The Blob (1988) on 4K Steelbook on 10/1, the animated Arcane: League of Legends – Season One (2021) on Blu-ray, Blu-ray Steelbook, and 4K Ultra HD Steelbook (for GKids) and John Erick Dowdle’s Devil (2010) in 4K on 10/8, George A. Romero’s Land of the Dead (2005) on 4K Ultra HD on 10/15, Robert Zemeckis’ Death Becomes Her (1992) in 4K Ultra HD and Joe Johnston’s The Wolfman (2010) in 4K Ultra HD on 10/22, and finally Sam Raimi’s Drag Me to Hell (2009) in 4K Ultra HD and Wes Craven’s Shocker (1989) in 4K Ultra HD on 10/29. And in November, look for the anime series Tonikawa: Over the Moon for You – Season One on Blu-ray on 11/11.

I'm definitely in for Seven Samurai but may wait for a UK release of Land of the Dead.
