The short list is highlighted by District 9, this year\u2019s very well-received sci-fi thriller. And the reviews of the Blu-ray high-def disc are already matching the praise with the video quality\u2014one review on Blu-ray.com mentioned that just about every frame (in 1.85:1 aspect ratio) features reference-quality video.<\/p>\n<p>Combine that with what should be a stellar DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack and we may have a latecomer for demo disc of the year with District 9.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of quality audio, one movie you probably did not hear about but is definitely worth checking out is It Might Get Loud. If you\u2019re a documentary fan and guitar fan, this is a must-have. It features guitar heroes Jimmy Page, Edge and Jack White talking about what they know best.<\/p>\n<p>Also this week, Family Guy is at it again with another Star Wars spoof out on Blu-ray. Something Something Something Dark Side gives the raunchy cartoon\u2019s take on The Empire Strikes Back this time. Unfortunately it\u2019s in the traditional 4:3 (1.33:1) aspect ratio and not widescreen, but we\u2019ll overlook that for all the laughs.<\/p>\n<p>And here\u2019s the full list for this week, from Blu-ray.com:<br \/>\n(500) Days of Summer<br \/>\nAll About Steve<br \/>\nAmerican Pie Presents: The Book of Love<br \/>\nBeyond a Reasonable Doubt<br \/>\nDistrict 9<br \/>\nExtract<br \/>\nFamily Guy: Something Something Something Dark Side<br \/>\nIchi<br \/>\nIt Might Get Loud<br \/>\nJay Johnson\u2019s Bootcamp Christmas: Ultimate 3&#215;30<br \/>\nJay Johnson\u2019s Bootcamp Christmas: Ultimate Abs<br \/>\nJay Johnson\u2019s Bootcamp Christmas: Ultimate Body Vol. 1<br \/>\nJay Johnson\u2019s Bootcamp Christmas: Ultimate Cardio<br \/>\nMaldeamores<br \/>\nStaten Island<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0by Arlen Schweiger<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.electronichouse.com\/article\/top_10_blu-ray_releases_for_december_22\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.electronichouse.com\/article\/top_10_blu-ray_releases_for_december_22\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"COLOR: #0000ff\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cis-nc.com\/\">Custom Installation Services, LLC <\/a>&#8211; Home\u00a0Theater, Audio and Video services in North Carolina and South Carolina<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>District 9, Family Guy, It Might Get Loud highlight this week&#8217;s sparse release schedule.
