Saving Private Ryan to storm Blu-ray
You might want to sit down for this one. Are you ready? Saving Private Ryan is coming to Blu-ray. Yep, the 1998 Academy award-winning movie is finally coming to Blu-ray on May 4th. Expect the ad machine to fire up some time in April, since you’re going to want to buy another version of this movie as well, right? So we know it’s coming May 4th, from the Blu-ray release schedule , but that’s about all the information we have. No word on what special features, extras, how much it will cost, box art. Nothing. It’s a whisper of a dream, and if you ask too many questions, that dream with burst like a soap bubble on a cacti.
