For the Movie Buff
Perfect Blue 4K Collector’s Edition
Few anime directors are as respected as the legendary Satoshi Kon. While US fans might be best familiar with his television series Paranoia Agent, Kon’s 1997 film Perfect Blue is his best work. It’s getting a fittingly deluxe 4K release that features a 128-page booklet, art cards, lectures from Kon, and much more.
Sinners 4K
The best films aren’t always a success at the box office, but Ryan Coogler pulled off what many doubted with his wonderful time period vampire movie. Sinners is a poignant examination of race and art while also delivering some great genre action. Michael B. Jordan’s dual performance makes it endlessly rewatchable and worth owning on 4K.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show 4K
Starring Tim Curry and Susan Sarandon, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the definition of a cult classic. The 1975 film has never looked so good as in the new 4K release, which comes in a gorgeous SteelBook. The only downside to watching it at home is that you’ll have to pick up any popcorn you throw.
Get The Rocky Horror Picture Show on Amazon
Shin Godzilla 4K
One of the most unorthodox and best Godzilla films ever made is finally available on 4K. The new Shin Godzilla release is gorgeous, features deleted scenes and outtakes, and comes in a stylish SteelBook.
For the Whole Family

You don’t get much better than Back to the Future. To celebrate the 40th anniversary, all three movies have been remastered on 4K. While there’s a rare collector’s edition (pictured above), there’s also a standard box set to gift friends and family. It also includes a bunch of audition tapes, plus a six-part documentary.

How to Train Your Dragon 4K
The beloved DreamWorks animated movie made its return earlier this year with a live-action remake. Starring Mason Thames and Gerard Butler, How to Train Your Dragon dazzled just as much with its blend of live-action and CGI as the original film. An easy rewatch and a ton of fun, kids will love to visit the Isle of Berk time and time again.

For Dad
F1
While it’s best if you dig Formula One, anyone can enjoy F1 The Movie. Brad Pitt and Damson Idris are teammates yet rivals in this high-octane racing movie from the director of Top Gun: Maverick. Filled with fun and thrills, this is an instant rewatchable.
The Americas 4K
The Tom Hanks-narrated docuseries The Americas has received a lovely 4K release. Featuring a gorgeous look at North and South America, the series is beautiful and a reminder of how incredible these two continents are. It’s a great way to show off your television set and to learn while doing so.

Pride & Prejudice 4K
Keira Knightley and Matthew MacFadyen’s Pride & Prejudice is one of the most beloved Jane Austen adaptations. It has stood the test of time for 20 years, and it has now received a beautiful 4K release. Arriving in a book-style case, it features 42 pages of cast and crew excerpts speaking about the film. It’s a superb set.

Sense and Sensibility 4K
You can never have enough Jane Austen. My favorite film adaptation of Austen is Ang Lee’s Sense and Sensibility, which is routinely gorgeous throughout. Featuring a stellar cast of Emma Thompson, Hugh Grant, Kate Winslet, and Alan Rickman, the romance drama is one of Lee’s most powerful films. With the right mix of humor and drama, it’s an easy recommendation in the great-looking 30th anniversary set.
Get Sense and Sensibility on Amazon
For the Marvel & DC Fan
Thunderbolts*
Marvel managed to take a ragtag group of B-characters and make one of its best movies. Led by Florence Pugh and Sebastian Stan, Thunderbolts* is fun and surprisingly emotional for a Marvel movie. Its late twist also underscores how big of an impact it will have going forward.
Superman 4K
James Gunn’s DC Universe kicked off with the excellent Superman. David Corenswet, Nicholas Hoult, and Rachel Brosnahan give stellar performances as the main trio, and it became an instant hit. Fans won’t have to wait long to see them in Man of Tomorrow, but with the 4K, they can revisit their great performances as much as they want.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps
Marvel’s first family finally arrived in the MCU in a stylish stand-alone movie. Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby give strong performances in the drama-filled movie, which is already a favorite of comic book fans.

The Penguin Season 1 4K
2024’s best superhero media wasn’t a film; it was HBO’s The Penguin. The stellar crime drama featuring Colin Farrell wowed fans as it aired, and it received a 4K release earlier this year. Featuring quite a bit of bonus content, it’s a strong transfer and the best the show has ever looked.
For the Gamer
A Minecraft Movie 4K
I… am Steve! Jack Black’s performance in A Minecraft Movie led to many memes (Chicken Jockey, anyone?) and a ton of money being generated at the box office. Kids and fans of the game loved the film, and it’s inherently rewatchable with groups due to its goofiness.
Get A Minecraft Movie on Amazon
Sonic The Hedgehog 3 4K
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 didn’t come out until late last year, which meant its 4K missed out on being a Christmas present. Fret not, it’s still available and one of the best video game movies ever made, so it’s sure to please Sonic and Jim Carrey fans.
Get Sonic the Hedgehog 3 on Amazon
Until Dawn 4K
While it wasn’t the year’s best horror movie, Until Dawn was a fun twist on the PlayStation franchise. Featuring an ending that hints at the original game, PlayStation fans will get the most out of David Sandberg’s fun horror film.
Arcane Season 2 4K
The hit League of Legends show Arcane has received another gorgeous 4K SteelBook release for its second season, which easily lands it on our gift guide.
