What constitutes an unnecessary blu-ray release? Don't all movies deserve blu-rays?

She's Out of My League was released on Blu-Ray 3 years ago, isn't out of print and isn't extremely expensive as in the case of Zodiac and Akira. That's why it was unnecessary, WB reissued a film for $10 less.

I'd agree with you for the most part, but 2012 is worse than most of Michael Bay's stuff.

Only God Forgives is worse than both of their filmographies, it doesn't deserve to be italicized.

I sensed a lot of Independence Day influence in Armageddon. But I just looking at Bay's filmography I'd have to say Emmerich's is worse. Bay at his worse (Pearl Harbor) is still better than Emmerich at his worse (Godzilla). Plus the latest Bay film (Pain & Gain) is more rewatchable than the latest Emmerich film (White House Down).

I'm not sure what the gripe is here. Paramount basically hired Warner to distribute much of their library and Warner is doing it at lower prices than Paramount used to.

These are both good things, aren't they?

So if the reissue is ten dollars less and was already not that expensive, what's the problem? Fans who didn't already have it can get it cheaper now. Or is it simply because you don't like this type of film? I mean you could have picked on any of Warner's reissues of Paramount titles.
