Top Must-see VR movies and 3D Blu-ray List for VR headsets

If there was ever a movie made for virtual reality, Star Wars is it. Google, Verizon and Lucasfilm's ILMxLAB studio came together to create a Star Wars: The Force AwakensVR experience for Google Cardboard late last year, one of my all-time favorite movie series! Announced a collaborative project between ILMxLab, Skywalker Sound and Lucasfilm that will bring virtual reality and augmented reality to Star Wars as an immersive and interactive experience for the fans!

Last November, 20th Century Fox released a short VR video for The Martian on Samsung's Milk VR portal, which offers the kind of VR experience that serves to fuel an appetite instead of satisfying a hunger. The video was just a sneak peek of the full experience, expected to be 15 to 20 minutes long and be released in 2016. Shot during production using the actors and sets from movie, this immersive adventure allows viewers to experience Mars from the perspective of Matt Damon's character.

After much anticipation, The Wild is an interactive, 360* video that allows travellers to experience the pristine coastal wilderness of British Columbia, Canada in a truly immersive way. The three-minute, 360-degree virtual reality video puts the viewer alongside Cheryl Strayed (Reese Witherspoon), making her journey a little less lonely. One YouTuber uploaded a view of the experience though VR goggles.

You've seen Avatar. If you haven't, you aren't alive. What can I really say about it? Controversial and somewhat criticized for it's redundant, cliche and typical story telling but lauded for it's unbelievably good effects, world building and innovated use of 3D (all of which set a new standard in Hollywood). I think Avatar is a very entertaining film as a whole. The story may be predictable and somewhat derivative of other work but it's setting is so beautiful, detailed and progressive that it's hard not to at least be entertained by it. While the movie's final act doesn't play nearly as well as the rest of the film (especially on repeat viewings) I think there is enough here to give the movie a more than enthusiastic review. Avatar needs to be seen to be enjoyed... and seeing it on this disc may be your best best. Avatar is a creative success that doesn't necessarily aim too high in terms of narrative. I think this was a wise decision as it may have been overwhelming to dig into the world of Pandora if it were any different.

X-Men: Apocalypse is presented on Blu-ray courtesy of 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment with an AVC encoded 1080p. This 8th entry in the X-Men franchise serves it's purpose and offers up a tight and decent story with solid performances. Hugh Jackman get's his Wolverine cameo and Oscar Issac's as the villain is well acted and a tad mellow-dramatic as the film plays out. Fox's disc features an very vibrant and smooth picture presentation along with an above average 7.1 DTS audio track. Dialog is clear and surrounds are active. Bonus features cover the normal spectrum of info which makes this a deserved spot on your shelf!

Deadpool is a comic book movie riddled with violence, blood, profanity and a bit of nudity. Despite that, this film was a huge success and is the 2nd highest grossing R rated movie of all time in America and THE highest grossing R rated movie of all time worldwide. It shattered everyone's expectations. Based of the trailers, I thought it would just be a fun little movie but it was way better that just that. It's funny, has great action, and everyone (including me) was so glad that they made this R. Picture quality is amazing. Highly recommended for comic book fans and film fans alike.

Star Trek Beyond is directed by Justin Lin, and writers Simon Pegg and Doug Jung who did their deep dive homework and their love for the show, its characters, and tropes shows up in nearly every scene. You could fill a basket with the Easter Eggs sprinkled around, too- everything from Picard's Stargazer to a 'giant green hand' are peppered in the story. The action is fierce, and a little overwhelming at times. Scenes shoot by so fast during the takedown of the Enterprise that a second viewing is needed to see who did what and where. That's where the Blu Ray will come in- you'll be able to catch those other little moments that fly past almost too quickly to catch. In a word, this movie is an excellent addition to the Star Trek universe, which definitely a must-see for any dedicated fan.

The animated film Zootopia from Disney really knocks it out of the park in almost every way imaginable. The story is great, the moral is perfect and delivered so very precisely to be appreciated by both adults and children, and the characters are flawed and enjoyable. The world is immensely fun to watch and pick up on things in the background as well as just see the intricate design of this film. They really did a great job with the world building for this film, as it feels like an entire believable world. This film is another in the long line of animated hits in the new Disney Renaissance, which I am told is called the Disney Revival.

Disney's Blu-ray 3D release of Finding Dory is superficially derivative, which has released 13 years after Finding Nemo. It talks about how Dory has been on ocean advantures to find her parents together with her friends after she suffered the short memories all of her childhood. This film finds its place and success beyond the cruder story details and down within the characters themselves. The film is more a journey of the spirit than it is the body, and with excellent depth of character support complimenting the outer layers, the film plays very well and works as a quality sequel to a great original.
