Classic Digimon Movies Are Coming To Blu-Ray, Preorders Are Now Open
Cool kids watched Pokemon when they were growing up, but cooler kids were into Digimon, a pretty cool animated series about digital monsters and unhinged cooking. Fans of the show won't want to miss out on the upcoming Digimon movie collection releasing soon, as the first three films will be released on Blu-ray on December 17. What makes this release special is that not only are you getting a crisp Blu-ray transfer, all three movies have been redubbed with the original English cast and these are the uncut versions to boot.
Digimon: The Movies
$22.50
The first Digimon movie, Digimon Adventure, was released in 1999 and tells the story of Tai and Kari's first encounter with the Digital Monster world. A year later, Digimon: Our War Game was released and focused on how the DigiDestined had to stop the evil Diaboromon from wreaking havoc on the internet. Another Digimon film was released in 2000--Hurrican Touchdown--and revolved around the next generation of DigiDestined kids, American allies, and an enigmatic enemy waiting in the shadows.
Beyond the movies, the only real extra you're getting on this Blu-ray is the original English Dub, just in case you feel like doing a comparison between the movies.
To add to your Digimon collection, you can check out the original series and several of the recent movies as well. The complete first season of Digimon Adventure has all 54 episodes on Blu-ray for just $49, and the sequel series Digimon Adventure 02 does a great job of making that 50-episode run look sharp in 1080p. The recent movies are interesting as well, and these take part in an era where the DigiDestined have moved on with their lives as they've matured, but circumstances force them to reunite so that they can face a new threat to the planet.
Digimon Blu-rays
- Digimon Adventure the Complete First Season -- $49.20

While it's not as cool as Digimon, the first Yu-Gi-Oh movie did recently get a Blu-ray release as well, so if you're looking to watch some d-d-d-d-d-dueling action, this is a fun film as it condenses a Duel Monsters match between Yugi and Seto Kaiba to a more manageable length instead of several-dozen episodes. You can also snag a steelbook edition of the first three Pokemon movies--Mewtwo Strikes Back, The Power of One, and Spell of the Unown--for $33, or the regular edition Blu-ray for $17.50.
