As we steer headlong into the coming summer months we here at The Bonus View would like to remind you that it's going to get hot outside. Really stinking hot. So, whenever you feel like heading inside for a cool glass of lemonade and air conditioning, know that we'll be here, bringing you the latest and greatest in the world of HD entertainment.

Have a hankering for some HD-related news, reviews, and other great stuff? See what transpired on The Bonus View in our weekly recap.

More contests? Are we crazy! Apparently so. This week is your chance to win a free copy of the newest version of 'Les Miserables.'

In the past couple years, Jessica Chastain's star has risen to unbelievable Hollywood heights. She's one of the most sought after actresses right now, and for good reason. She's usually great in everything she's in. This is one of those Top 5 / Bottom 5s where we find ourselves throwing a few good performances in the bottom simply because she brings it in just about every movie she does.

If you can only buy three titles that hit Blu-ray in February, here's what we suggest you pick up, starting with the most essential...

Where does the time go? February is half over and the weather is starting to get a little warmer. Let's not jump to conclusions though. Warmer is a relative term here. Most of us are probably better off inside, next to our portable heater, reading The Bonus View.

January is over and February is here, but that doesn't mean it's any warmer! So bundle up in your blanket, get a warm cup of Joe, and join us for some exclusive Bonus View content, because, let's be honest, going outside is not an option.

Whoa boy, this week has been a crazy one. Between Josh moving and Aaron being at Sundance, we've been stretched way too thin. Even so, the content has kept flowing. Come see what you might have missed this week on The Bonus View.

Up until now there hadn't been many stand-out movies for me. It's a good thing that Day 5's plans included two of the festival's most anticipated titles 'Stoker' and 'Upstream Color.'

Aaron Peck's Sundance adventures continue, and he finally gets to see his most anticipated film of the festival.

This isn't a journal entry for the weak stomached. This is a cautionary tale, like many of the films up here at Sundance. This is a what-not-to-do festival rundown. If you ever find yourself taking on the mammoth task of a film festival, please use this information wisely.

Today was the day I realized the schedule I had previously mapped out, simply wasn't going to work at all. I'd put too much faith in the memory of public screening tickets being easier to procure in earlier years. This year, press tickets for public showings have become a competitive race to see who can get to the press office first. Most movie bloggers are horribly out of shape, so this makes for a very awkward race indeed.

Seems like just a few months ago I was traipsing around Park City watching brand-new indie movies, and now here I am doing it again. The next nine days will be chock full of as many movie screenings as I can possibly fit in. Caffeine consumption is up and sleep duration is down. It's time to see some movies!

With everyone getting ready for the big game, what can you do to really set your gathering apart from the rest? A new TV, of course! There's no better way to impress all your friends than with a shiny new big screen, and the retailers know it. Now is a great time to upgrade your display, as there are plenty of great sales to be found. Let's take a look at some of the best televisions and bargains on the market at the moment.

TV on Blu-ray has become a must for any HD home theater fan's collection. So how did 2012 stack up in that regard? Here's a look at our favorite TV Blu-ray releases last year.

January is flying by. We've got a ton of stuff planned for this month. New features, film festival coverage, and contests. It's going to be a great couple weeks at The Bonus View.

Looking back on 2012, some damn funny movies found their way to Blu-ray.

There's no stopping it. Winter is in full effect. When you wake up and your pipes are frozen (like mine) you realize there's nothing better than snuggling up in some warm clothes to read about movies online. It's a good thing we're here, right?

With the New Year dawning and the memory of 2012 growing more distant by the second, we'd like to take a look back at some of the best action Blu-rays released in 2012.

This month, we're covering an underwater animated adventure, a blockbuster trilogy's grand conclusion, and an eccentric sci-fi satire. If you can only buy three titles that hit Blu-ray in December, here's what we suggest you pick up, starting with the most essential...
