Featured TV on DVD Review: MGM Collections

October 16th, 2010

On the 5th of October, MGM released about a dozen compilation DVDs ranging in size from two-film packs to ten-film packs. A couple of them, the 80s Movies Six-Pack and Sports Movies Six-Pack, were sent to me to review. With 12 movies on 6 discs on 2 DVDs, there's a lot to get to. And yes, my reviews will be a whole lot shorter than they would be if these were individual releases. More...
