Man on Fire: Collector’s Edition £2.93

Man on Fire: Collector's Edition

Man on Fire sees Denzel Washington playing the role of a soldier of fortune who has pretty much given up on life, until a child he reluctantly agrees to protect, after a spate of kidnappings, is abducted – bringing his fiery rage to a head…

The Man on Fire: Collector's Edition set comes with hours of bonus material, some of which is actually pretty good. On the first disc is an audio commentary with director Tony Scott, plus some deleted scenes and a "making of" featurette – the second holds the extensive "Vengeance is Mine" documentary, a music video and some storyboards.

Zavvi Mega Monday DVD Sale

The Zavvi Mega Monday DVD sale is apparently now going to become a weekly event, which can only be good news for those of us who love a bargain or two – even if it is only for 24 hours (ish!) at a time.

Ocean’s Eleven (Blu-Ray) £5

Cheap DVDs like the Ocean's Eleven (Blu-Ray) are well worth adding to your collection

Ocean's Eleven is a decent 2001 remake of the 1960 Rat Pack caper film of the same name. Featuring an impressive cast, which includes George Clooney and Brad Pitt, this proved popular enough with both critics and viewers that two sequels were subsequently produced.

This high definition release of the movie has fantastic picture and sound quality, as you'd expect, plus it comes with all of the extras from the DVD version – two audio commentaries and two rather dull "making of" featurettes.

Click here to get Ocean's Eleven, on Blu-Ray, for £5 from Tesco.

Robot Chicken: Season One £3.97

Robot Chicken: Season One

Being that it's both short in length, with episodes running for roughly 11 minutes each, and filmed using stop motion animation, it's slightly surprising that Robot Chicken has managed to become one of the most successful shows on the U.S. network Adult Swim – though it is much funnier than programmes with bigger budgets and live-action people.

Inside the Robot Chicken: Season One double disc set you'll find the first 20 installments of the series. Additional webtoons are also included, but it's a shame that one or two sketches have been altered due to legal problems.

Tesco are selling this set of cheap DVDs for £3.97 – click here for more details.

Star Trek: The Original Series – Season One (Blu-Ray) £32.97

Star Trek: The Original Series - Season One (Blu-Ray)

Star Trek: The Original Series, originally known simply as Star Trek but changed to distinguish it from the many spin-offs that followed, is a science fiction show which documents the adventures of the starship Enterprise and its crew – led by Captain James T. Kirk.

Inside the Star Trek: The Original Series – Season One boxset, you'll find the first 29 episodes of the programme in glorious high definition with added CGI effects and digital re-mastering. Also included are a range of featurettes looking back at the making of the show.

24: Season Eight (Blu-Ray) £25.97

24: Season Eight (Blu-Ray)

Even though we're not quite up to the halfway point in the eighth year of Jack Bauer's hectic association with C.T.U., this has probably been one of the most watchable yet – which is quite something for a show which relies on explosions and death around every corner!

This 24: Season Eight (Blu-Ray) boxset isn't due for release until October, so it's yet to be confirmed what will be included in it. What I can guarantee is the best picture and sound quality around – along with commentaries and featurettes, no doubt.

Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy (Blu-Ray) £24.99

Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy (Blu-Ray)

The Pirates of the Caribbean films have each been brilliant, even if the third one was a little too dark for children (killing kids at the start seemed a bit wrong for a Disney movie). Bit odd that they're based on a theme park ride, but whatever works!

With the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy boxset, on Blu-Ray, you get all three movies in high definition – all packed to the rafters with hours of bonus material as well, ranging from audio commentaries through to documentaries and deleted scenes.

Taking Woodstock (Blu-Ray) £9.99

Taking Woodstock (Blu-Ray)

Based on the Elliot Tiber memoir "Taking Woodstock: A True Story of a Riot, a Concert and a Life" about the 1969 festival, Taking Woodstock is unique in that it doesn't actually contain any musical performances – which is a tad strange, it has to be said.

This high definition release has excellent picture and sound quality, as you'd expect, plus it comes with a fair few extra features too. These include an audio commentary, three featurettes on the making of the movie and a handful of deleted scenes.

HMV have Taking Woodstock, on Blu-Ray, available for £9.99 – for more information, click here.

The World at War £17.99

The World at War

The World at War is a 26-part documentary series on World War II and the events leading up to, and immediately following, it. Such was the depth of its research, it took four years to produce at a very high cost – although it's since become considered by many to be the finest example of the documentary form.

Inside this 11 disc set you'll find every episode ever made, plus a wide range of bonus material. This includes eight bonus documentaries, an hour-long "making of" feature, speeches, songs and newsreels, a photo gallery, and a collection of maps.

Click here to get this for £17.99 from Amazon.
