If you recall, last week’s Blu-ray Rise and Shine winner was Dina Meyer from Starship Troopers. The problem with that selection is we failed to remember the street date change for Starship Troopers from July 29 to August 5. So now here we are ready to select August 5 and our top choice is already spoken for.
That’s the bad news. The good news is even though August 5 is fairly light on releases it is dominated by three Starship Troopers skus. And since Starship Troopers is known for its share of lovely ladies, we feel inclined to tap the same well for this week’s Blu-ray Rise and Shine.
These days the only time you hear Denise Richard’s name in the news is on updates to her ongoing fued with ex-husband Charlie Sheen. There was a short period of time when Denise was one of the hotest vixens in film as demanded by her topless work in Wild Things and role as a naval officer in Starship Troopers. Those are the days we choose to remember.
Thanks to the decision makers at Sony Pictures Home Entertainment both Starship Troopers and Wild Things (Unrated) are already available on Blu-ray Disc. Considering Denise’s “body” of work that’s all we could had hoped for.
