Christmas is coming, but you won't have to wait that long to get hold of some of the hottest cinema blockbusters on DVD.
October is all about heroes, and not just the TV variety, who recently popped into JB (see page 50). There's the return of everyone's favourite adventurer in INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL, the introduction of IRON MAN to the pantheon of screen superheroes, and THE INCREDIBLE HULK is back to smash and bash the bad guys. While the guys enjoy an action fix, the girls can catch up with some old friends in the movie version of SEX AND THE CITY, and the kids can delight in an all-new special edition of Disney classic SLEEPING BEAUTY. Let the blockbuster season commence at your local JB Hi-Fi store. |
