Collection Count

Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.

Four brand-new titles this week — yes, I managed to avoid any sale purchases!

...apart from the stuff I've purchased in sales that should turn up next week, that is. Ah well.

Three of the four are 4K (yay!), and two are upgrades — one directly, so it replaces my older BD, but the other is Hearts of Darkness, the Apocalypse Now making-of that's included in the Apocalypse Now release. A new standalone 4K edition seemed indulgent for that reason but, in addition to the feature being restored in 4K, it comes with a copy of Eleanor Coppola's behind-the-scenes book Notes, and on disc there's a fairly large selection of special features, including (I believe) Eleanor's complete documentary filmography. Neat. On the bright side, it does replace an old DVD copy I was also hanging on to for special features, so that's a bonus.
