To my great surprise, one of my favourite movies was released on Blu-Ray last year: 1985’s Water, one of the great Handmade Films comedies! It previously came out almost 20 years ago on DVD, which was a big surprise too.

After two summers full of Futurama, the resurrection of the series by Disney and Hulu comes to a temporary end with Otherwise, an amazing finale written by veteran author Ken Keeler under his Nona di Spargement pseudonym.
