My 4K UHD Collection is getting bigger by the month and as time goes by, more films are adapting to the format. As usual, (like I say in every post) it continues to be an amazing time for film. Good news, February (2020) brings another strong batch of new releases to the UHD format and here are the ones I’m looking forward to the most.
As a side note, check out my The Best Movies of 2019 and The Most Anticipated Movies of 2020 articles. A lot of good stuff came out last year and there’s a lot to come in 2020, it should be another great year to go to the movies.
There are a few releases to grab in the Blu-ray format too! This includes Waves and Last Christmas, both of which release on February 4th, plus 21 Bridges February 18th.
