NEW ON DVD – June 14, 2016

Whats up you guys?  Today’s post is a little something different than the usual book chatter.  I really wanted to branch out this year and try out some new things here on the site, and one of those things is including movie reviews & discussions, as well as adding comics and graphic novels to the site.  So today’s post is the first of those new things!

New on DVD this week, release date June 14, 2016:
