X-Men Origins: Wolverine (Blu-Ray) £7.95

X-Men Origins: Wolverine acts as a prequel to the X-Men film series, focusing on the violent past of the mutant Wolverine and his relationship with his half-brother Victor Creed. Also detailed are his early encounters with Colonel William Stryker, his time with Team X, and the bonding of Wolverine's skeleton with the indestructible metal adamantium during the Weapon X program.

As you can imagine, this high definition release has the absolute best picture and sound quality around. You'll also find a fair few extra features, including two audio commentaries, six featurettes on Wolverine and the making of the film, and a look at the characters.

Terminator Quadrilogy £17.93

When James Cameron brought the first Terminator movie to the big-screen in 1984, I doubt that he could even imagine how much of an impact it would have on filmmakers in the science fiction genre – not to mention the fact that it became one of the most popular franchises in the world.

Anyway, the Terminator Quadrilogy boxset contains all four films that have been made so far. From Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and Terminator: Salvation, I'd have to say that the second one is still the best (although three and four are nowhere near as bad as some would have you think).

James Bond: Ultimate DVD Collector’s Set £69.99

The James Bond series of films are probably the most successful franchise this side of McDonald's. With action and drama in every outing, both men and women enjoy nearly every moment – for entirely different reasons. Die Another Day is pretty bad mind you, even if Halle Berry goes some way to making it as least worth a couple of viewings.

The first 21 007 movies that have been released on home video are in the James Bond: Ultimate DVD Collector's Set. Each film comes across two discs, with the first containing the movie and a commentary – the second comes loaded with bonus material.

True Blood: The Complete First Season (Blu-Ray) £24.99

After managing to impress viewers on FX, Channel Four moved very quickly to show True Blood on terrestrial television – and for very good reason, as it's easily one of the best programmes to come out of the U.S. since Dexter (which is another HBO production that has gone down well over here).

True Blood: The Complete First Season, on Blu-Ray, contains all 12 episodes from the debut year in glorious high definition. There are also many extra features included, such as audio commentaries on six installments and various featurettes on the making of the show.

Bang CD have this available for £24.99 – for more information, click here. The same retailer still also has the DVD version of True Blood: The Complete First Season priced at £18.99, by the way.

Jimmy Carr: In Concert £3.83

Jimmy Carr: In Concert captures one of Britain's best stand-ups at his very best in a performance at London's Bloomsbury Theatre. Although not everybody's cup of tea, there is no denying that Carr is the master of the one-liner – at the expense of pretty much everybody in his audience…

This DVD not only comes with the full show, but some decent extra features as well. These include a specially commissioned 36 minute animated piece, nine comic strips and alternative subtitles (in Scouse, Glaswegian, Polish, Australian and Welsh!).

A Touch Of Frost: Series One To Five £17.95

2009 will see the very final outing for David Jason as William Edward "Jack" Frost, with A Touch Of Frost due to conclude after a very impressive 17 year run – something which probably won't be matched for quite some time.

Inside the A Touch Of Frost: Series One To Five boxset you'll find the first 20 feature-length episodes. Sadly there are no extra features, but you can't have everything I suppose!

Bruno (Blu-Ray) £9.93

Bruno is a mockumentary starring Sacha Baron Cohen as yet another one of the characters who started off life in "Da Ali G Show" – this time he's a gay Austrian fashion journalist who gets fired and decides to become "the biggest Austrian superstar since Hitler".

This high definition release has excellent picture and sound quality, as you'd expect, and also comes with all of the special features from the standard DVD version. These include an audio commentary with Sacha Baron Cohen and director Larry Charles, and some deleted scenes.

The Hut are selling Bruno, on Blu-Ray, for £9.93 – click here for more details.

Mamma Mia!: The Movie – Gift Set £6.99

Considering its massive success at the box office, I'd be very surprised if there's anyone left on the planet who doesn't know what Mamma Mia! is. In case you've been living under a rock, it's a musical based on the songs of Abba which has since been turned into a film.

The Mamma Mia!: The Movie – Gift Set contains a copy of the movie on DVD, plus a hardback journal and a pen. Not very exciting, but it does look quite nice I suppose.
