<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black; mso-color-alt: windowtext; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> Peter Sobczynski is here for your weekly dive into physical media. They include films with early appearances from Ricardo Montalban and Marilyn Monroe.

Peter shares his thoughts on a trio of new theatrical titles from Universal. But 4K this week should have everyone looking up from probing aliens to Bruno Ganz with wings, a giant comet headed for Earth and the one who could save us from all of them gets their due as Erik Childress and Peter look back on Christopher Reeve’s Superman movies.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">  </span><span style= "font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">0:00 - Intro</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> 1:36 - Criterion (Wings of Desire (4K))</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> 3:55 - Shout!
