EDITOR’S LETTER
S
o far it’s been a pretty unsettled Summer, so while we
would all rather be outside enjoying the sunshine, it pays
to plan ahead for those unwelcome days when you are stuck
inside. As far as DVD and Blu-ray is concerned, there is certainly
plenty to choose from this Summer at JB Hi-Fi and a good
place to start is our film of the month,
The Martian
, which
recently picked up two Golden Globes and is the sort of stirring
adventure that will lift the spirits. Other hot new releases
featured in this month’s
STACK
include the acclaimed thrillers
Black Mass
and
Bridge of Spies
, the feel-good comedy
The
Intern
and the gloriously gothic fantasy
Crimson Peak
. And for
those looking for more edgy, challenging fare, we recommend
you check out
The Duke of Burgundy
and
The Diary of a
Teenage Girl
. Elsewhere in our Summer Edition, Graham Reid
pays tribute to the late, great
David Bowie
and hails his final
album
Blackstar
, while on the games front, we look ahead to
some of most eagerly awaited titles of 2016.
