I just got
in the mail. It's massive! I can't wait to dive in! Really makes me wish I had bought the more expensive editions of the movies with all the extras instead of the cheaper bare bones boxset. I guess I'll wait to see what Warner Brothers releases next year and I may have to spring for another set.

Crossed was good! Kind of slow, but I enjoy the writing a lot, so it didn't matter to me.
I picked up
and
