Welcome to another edition of NEW RELEASE TUESDAY on a Wednesday! While this week will find me mostly engaged with the PS3 game HEAVY RAIN, its definitely not a slim week in the home video department. Don’t get it twisted — Its definitely another week filled with worthy additions to any Hi-Def enthusiast’s Blu-ray collection. There’s only one classic (and I use that term rather loosely) getting the shiny blu disc upgrade, and I think that has more to do with a certain remake showing up in theaters this week than the worthiness of said classic. Attention cinephiles — fans of unconventional comedies should look no further than this week’s Pick for their dose of anti-Hollywood fare. We have at least one under-appreciated 2009 flick getting a second chance on hi-def, and another DC Universe adventure gets the DTV treatment. Go beyond the break to see all that and more… (more…)

Welcome to NEW RELEASE TUESDAY on a Wednesday! Quit your whining and read on! This week is the first where I’ve actually not seen any of the new releases (or at least until last night…), so my pick of the week is simply a gut reaction. I’m pretty sure an animated flick about one of the most popular video game franchises in history is a safe bet. There’s the usual collection of new stuff on the shiny blu disc and an assortment of classics being re-released in Hi-Def (even a rare Blu-ray double-dip!), and three (count’em — THREE) Criterion Blu-ray offerings! The movie gods smile upon us this day my friends. Go beyond the break to see all that and more… (more…)

Ok, that isn’t so bad. One day late for the latest edition of New Release Tuesday. Getting these out on time is getting tougher and tougher every week! This time out, we have ourselves what I would call a sleeper week. Not much here for Joe Six-Pack, at least not anything of worth. However, there are two flicks that will get Art House fans and other like-minded cinephiles quite excited. As usual, there’s plenty of “classics” getting the shiny blue disc treatment, one new disc that will get Horror fans into their local Blockbusters (or Mom & Pop Shops), and a couple of rather disappointing mainstream “hits” that will keep the masses appeased. Go beyond the break for all that and more… (more…)

Oops. Looks like it finally happened. A late edition of New Release Tuesday. Well there’s no point in dishing out excuses, so we might as well just get right into it. This week has a lot to offer to Hi-Def enthusiasts, including a late Summer hit from last year that managed to offer a fresh and funny jaunt through a Zombie-infested post apocalypse, another animated Marvel adventure, a double dose of Muay Thai action, and at least two bonafide cinema classics. Go beyond the break to see all that and more… (more…)

Hey folks, Bobert here! Another week of new releases and another edition of New Release Tuesday is coming right-atcha! This is what I would call a slim pickins kind of week, with only a couple of must-haves for me, but a pretty big selection of curiosities. As usual, the assortment of Blu-ray output includes new stuff (not all necessarily worth seeing), Hi-Def updates (resistance is futile) , and a few classics ( I’m using that term loosely) getting the shiny blue disc treatment. Go beyond the break to see all that and more… (more…)

Well whaddyaknow, another Tuesday has arrived and another edition of New Release Tuesday has been posted! Let’s see if I can keep this up! Hey folks, Bobert here bringing you this week’s picks and worthy mentions. Aside from a few classics and not-so-classics getting the inevitable Hi-Def upgrade, we also have two under-appreciated “flops” getting a second chance on Home Video, another Hi-Def Criterion Collection release, and at least one Direct-to-DVD (Blu-ray rather) sequel for those with little to no discriminating taste. Go beyond the break to see all that and more… (more…)

Welcome to the return of New Release Tuesday, at least for this week. I know its been a while since the last installment, and I’ve missed a load of major releases, but lets not dwell on the past and move forward to the future! We have a lot coming out this week, including a slew of modern classics that get the Hi-Def upgrade and arrive on Blu-ray, a couple of highly acclaimed Summer independents vie for your hard-earned dollars, and the Criterion Collection adds at least one more film to its Hi-Def catalog. Go beyond the break to see all that and more… (more…)

Hey folks, welcome to the latest New Release Tuesday — err, uh — Sunday! Yeah this installment is beyond late I know, but there’s so much coming out that I needed the extra time to fully express how amazing it is. Ok, I’m lying but why dwell on the details? Check out this week’s selections beyond the break and I’ll let the titles speak for themselves… (more…)

Hey folks, welcome to another late edition of New Release Tuesday. This is the part where I explain that this week’s Home Video releases were so plentiful that I needed the extra couple of days to write up the article, but the truth is this week is pretty slim pickings. Unless movies about immigrants (some legal, some not so much), animated chicks in microkinis, and the exploits of polar bears are your thang. If thats the case, go beyond the break to see what this week has to offer… (more…)
