But in terms of more current releases that also were blockbusters, Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners” is now available to own at home as opposed to just streaming on HBO (yes, that’s right, HBO!) Max in less visually pristine terms. The vampire saga — starring Michael B. Jordan as twin brothers in the 1930s South who take over a juke joint but must face off some juicy, blood-sucking foes in the process — spent nine weeks in the box office top 10 this year and grossed more than $278 million. Warner Bros. has released a 4K UHD of the film that doesn’t quite capture its IMAX glory, but gets pretty close.

This month, classic movies getting the Blu-ray and/or 4K treatment include Stanley Kubrick’s cutting and gutting 18th-century William Makepeace Thackeray adaptation “Barry Lyndon,” a Best Picture nominee out of one of the great movie years ever, 1975; Mike Nichols’ biting 1971 sexual politics satire “Carnal Knowledge” (a precursor to his eventual “Closer”); and more.
