Dumbo: 70th Anniversary Special Edition (Blu-Ray) £10.53

Dumbo may have only come about due to the financial losses incurred by Fantasia (which flopped badly), but it's regarded by many as one of the best animated films ever produced by Disney – and it only runs for around 64 minutes as well!

The Dumbo: 70th Anniversary Special Edition (Blu-Ray) has been fully restored for its high definition debut, plus it comes with tons of extra features too. These include a deleted scene, a deleted song, the "Magic of Dumbo" documentary and lots of other short bits and bobs.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: Diamond Edition (Blu-Ray) £11.23

Though it's the first animated film ever produced in America, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs still holds up today as a pretty good example of how to do the genre well – so much so that it's constantly released again and again on DVD.

Thee Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: Diamond Edition is the first time it's appeared on Blu-Ray though, with top drawer picture and sound quality. Hours of bonus material is also included, with highlights being a feature-length audio commentary and multiple "making of" featurettes.

Sleeping Beauty: 50th Anniversary Platinum Edition (Blu-Ray) £12.71

Sleeping Beauty is a classic Disney animated film based on the Charles Perrault fairy tale "La Belle au bois dormant", that follows the story of a princess who falls into a deep sleep – with only true love's first kiss being able to awaken her.

This Sleeping Beauty: 50th Anniversary Platinum Edition (Blu-Ray) release presents the movie in glorious high definition for the very first time. Also included are countless hours of extra features, such as an audio commentary, four deleted songs and a range of featurettes looking at the making of the film.

Rob Van Dam: One of a Kind £3.99

Wrestling DVDs are not something that appear too regularly on this site, mainly because they usually veer on the expensive side – being a somewhat niche sport, I suppose this is to be expected (annoying for fans though).

Anyway, the Rob Van Dam: One of a Kind set comes with two discs which are filled with some of the former WWE star's best matches from his time in the original ECW and first run in the WWE – sadly there's also an extensive documentary looking back at this career as a whole, which is a shame.

Without a Trace: The Complete Fifth Season £12.99

Without a Trace was an American drama series set in New York City which followed a fictitious full-time F.B.I. missing persons unit. After running for seven years, it was finally cancelled in 2009 – which wasn't all that surprising, as ratings had been going steadily downhill for some time.

Anyway, inside the Without a Trace: The Complete Fifth Season boxset you'll find 24 episodes of the show. Sadly there are no extra features of any kind, which feels like a great missed opportunity (commentaries or a "making of" featurette would have been nice!).

Amazon have this available for £12.99 – for more information, click here.

Family Guy: Seasons One to Five Collector’s Pack £35

It's clear to see that Family Guy has now not only shown itself to be much funnier than other comedy shows, but has actually surpassed its biggest rival – The Simpsons. Wonder if we'll see a big-screen Family Guy movie at some point?!?

The Family Guy: Seasons One to Five Collector's Pack contains every episode from the first four seasons. For some reason the releases in the UK have been marked wrongly, hence the reason why this doesn't actually include the true fifth season (confusing, I know).

Click here to get this set for £35 from Tesco. We can get it lower than this though, by using the Tesco 15% discount voucher until the end of July.

Smokin’ Aces: The Collection (Blu-Ray) £13.93

Both of the Smokin' Aces films are crime/action oriented, and center on individuals who are targeted by a group of assassins – an informant in the original and an F.B.I. desk jockey in Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball.

Inside the Smokin' Aces: The Collection (Blu-Ray) boxset you'll find both movies in glorious high definition. Also included are hours of bonus material, such as audio commentaries, "making of" featurettes and deleted scenes.

Family Guy: Complete Seasons One to Six £45.47

Although The Simpsons has been running longer, I would say that Family Guy is now the premier cartoon comedy show on TV. Some have criticised it for having very obvious jokes, but I still reckon it's head and shoulders above the competition – and who really cares if jokes are obvious or not anyway?!?

The Family Guy: Complete Seasons One To Six boxset contains the first 90 episodes, alongside the Family Guy: Uncovered compilation of uncensored episodes and extra features.

Click here to get this set for £45.47 from Tesco. Until the end of July you can actually get it for £38.65 by using the Tesco 15% discount.

Samuel L. Jackson Collection £6.75

Samuel L. Jackson is without doubt one of the hardest working actors around – barely a month seems to go by when a new film appears with him in it (though recently he's gone a bit quiet, which can only mean there will be a time soon when he's in everything).

Anyway, inside the Samuel L. Jackson Collection boxset you'll find copies of "1408", "Black Snake Moan", "Changing Lanes", "Coach Carter" and "Shaft" – it's just a shame that there aren't more well-known movies included.

Amazon are selling this for £6.75 – click here for more details.

Predator 2 (Blu-Ray) £6.99

Being the sequel to one of the best action films ever made would be difficult enough, but when the main star doesn't get involved then expectations go down quite rapidly – thankfully though, Predator 2 still has some very memorable moments (the scene in a Colombian drug lord's home being just one).

Anyway, this high definition release has brilliant picture and sound quality, plus it comes with all of the extras from the Special Edition DVD. These include a couple of audio commentaries, an extensive "making of" documentary and some other small bits and bobs.

To get Predator 2, on Blu-Ray, for £6.99 from HMV, simply click here.
