New Releases, week of 02/07/2012: "I <3 John Cho" edition
I love John Cho, almost as much as I love Miles Fisher. He makes the perfect straight man to Kal Penn's ludicrous troublemaker in all three Harold & Kumar films, and that is probably what has endeared him to me so much. Also he's totally fine, nawmean? Anyways, man-love aside, you can pick up A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas today and enjoy John Cho right along with me! Elsewhere on sale, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part I continues the proud tradition of vampire c-sections, over/under-acting, and angsty Native-Americans that the series is know for (out on Friday the 11th), Anonymous gets all Shakespeare on your ass, and Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred begs the question "Yeahbuhwha!?" in the tried and true dada way. As far as re-releases go, the big ones are Lady and the Tramp having been taking out of the Disney vault and La Jetee/Sans Soleil getting a Criterion release. The Elephant in the Living Room is also being released, marking Flixist's very first cover quote, which you can see in the gallery below. As always, the full list of releases is below. Lemme know what you're picking up this week and if there's anything I didn't mention that is worth checking out! New releases Did you know?

8:00 AM on 04.04.2013 Review: Jurassic Park 3DIt's in 3D! It's like the Jurassic Park you have at home on DVD or Blu-ray, but with more depth. You also have to wear glasses or else it's just blurry Jurassic Park. Also, the dinosaurs win. At the end there's just a bloody pile of human body parts with the raptors standing over them laugh maniacally. Yea, they learn to open doors and laugh maniacally.
5:00 PM on 02.19.2013 Rumor: Dr. No coming to IMAX 3DThrough a convoluted series of events it appears that James Bond's first on screen adventure, Dr. No, will be receiving a 3D IMAX re-release. Blooding Cool was first hinted to the possibility when the Taiwanese Blu-Ray r...
4:00 PM on 02.19.2013 Iron Man 3 gets collectible 3D glasses because reasonsSo at this point, I assume you've made your decision on whether or not you're going to see Iron Man 3.

8:00 PM on 02.11.2013 Trailer: Jack the Giant SlayerThis new trailer for Jack the Giant Killer Slayer doesn't look fun at all. It takes the intrinsic whimsy of the original Jack and the Beanstalk fairy tale and turns it into something gritty, and action-y. Sure it's got Obi W...

2:00 PM on 01.29.2013 No more 3D Star Wars prequelsSo instead of trying to milk more money out of the Star Wars fans, Disney wants to work on “rebooting the franchise” with the new trilogy. Not surprisingly this comes from how underwhelming the box office performa...

3:00 PM on 01.04.2013 Review: Texas Chainsaw 3DThe Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise has certainly had its ups and downs. The original film shocked a nation with its brutality when it exploded onto the scene in 1974, but the three that followed were a lot more goofy ...
