August starts strong on the Blu-ray front thanks to one ass kickin' comic book movie, a few catalog titles that are finally getting a release, and plenty of great music.

The popular kiosk based rental service Redbox has been experimenting with Blu-ray rentals for a while now, and there's been talk of expansion for the last year, but now it's official.  Every single Redbox kiosk will be stocked with Blu-ray discs by this fall.

3D content is hard to come by, but Warner is helping to solve that thanks to a new partnership with LG and Sony that will allow Warner to pack discs in with consumer products. Well, not actually discs per se – more like the promise of discs. 

'Apocalypse Now' sits high on the list of great films that haven't yet hit Blu-ray.  It's a classic, and it really demands a high definition version.  Thanks to a recent distribution deal with Lionsgate and American Zoetrope, it's getting it.

The original 'Clash of the Titans' was very much a cult classic, and this week's movies reflect that.  There isn't much in terms of new, but there are plenty of old horror flicks and comedies that certainly earn their cult status, even if "classic" may be debatable.
