New Releases, week of 02/28/2012: "Royale" editionSo, no big deal, but Battle Royale is finally, finally out on DVD and Blu-ray. That's kind of a big deal.

10:00 AM on 05.14.2013 New Releases, week of 5/18/13: Happy Little Cloud EditionToday's affirmation: whenever you're feeling down, just remember that the blue Jedi ghost of Bob Ross loves you like a little woodland critter. This will save your life some day, trust me. The big new release this week is Clo...
12:00 PM on 05.08.2013 New Releases, week of 5/11/13: Heading Upstream EditionFirst off, sorry this edition of New Releases is a day later than usual. Running behind with lots of things this week. Netflix Now will also be a day late. I owe you an ice cream.* The new releases this week include Jack Reac...
12:00 PM on 05.06.2013 Cleopatra getting 50th anniversary re-releasesCleopatra, the epic film known as much for its off screen issues as it was for its grandeur, is turning 50 this year and 20th Century Fox isn't about to miss out on the opportunity to celebrate it. They've remastered the...
12:00 PM on 04.30.2013 New Releases, week of 5/14/13: Big Bad Borg EditionWhile most folks will be interested in Silver Linings Playbook today (as it earned a bunch of awards and the like), I'll be trying to find myself a copy of Manborg. We've featured a trailer for the film on the site recently a...
12:00 PM on 04.23.2013 New Releases, week of 4/27/13: Gangsta's Paradise EditionThis week's biggest release is arguably the re-re-re-re-re-release of Jurassic Park (IN 3D!!!), oh, there's new stuff this week also? Well...then the biggest new release is probably Gangster Squad, which is ironic since Matt ...
8:00 AM on 04.16.2013 New Releases, week of 4/20/13: Djangowned EditionHowdy, folks, and welcome to this week's new releases, a sort of pre-Tribeca reprieve for me. This week boasts two genre deconstructions. The biggie is Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained, starring Jamie Foxx (who, as Nick p...
10:00 AM on 04.09.2013 New Releases, week of 4/13/13: Historical Hot Dog EditionIt's another slow week on the DVD/Blu-ray release front. The most high-profile title is the disappointing Hyde Park on Hudson, which features Bill Murray as FDR. (More accurately, Bill Murray doing an impersonation of Cary Gr...
8:00 AM on 04.02.2013 New Releases, week of 4/6/13: All Cleaned Up EditionI know something major happened yesterday... Hmm... weird. Don't know what it was. Funny how that works. An oddly sparse week with new releases. The biggest thing by far is a re-release: The Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase O...
12:00 PM on 03.26.2013 New Releases, week of 3/30/13: Fightin' Abe EditionToday is the day that Steven Spielberg's Lincoln rolls onto DVD and Blu-ray. I think Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt are my favorite U.S. Presidents. Both were supreme badasses in different ways. Lincoln steered the count...
11:00 AM on 03.19.2013 New Releases, week of 3/23/13: Les Little People EditionBack from warm and awful nice Austin to the cold, jerk-filled New York and what do I see? Lots of major releases out this week on DVD and Blu-ray. (Worst thing about Austin by the way: limited free wifi at the airport. Damn y...
