Stuff that came out on Tuesday...
Love American Style Season 1 Volume 2 and Mod Squad Season 1 Volume 2: Must...not...complain about split season releases again this week. So I won't. All I'll say is I'm glad to see more LAS, as I really enjoyed seeing the hourlong episodes in the first set. Guest stars, retro fashions and mores, and CHEESE--what more can you ask for?
No Country for Old Men: The Best Picture comes to DVD. I looked into it, folks, and I have to warn you: No, there's no "Bonus Unambiguous Ending" in the extras.
Hitman: A meditative, often haunting film that ponders the existential nature of violence in society. No, wait, that's "No Country." This is just a big dumb action movie.
Fox Noir Classics: After a worrying delay, the studio continues this excellent line with 3 movies, at least 1 of which might actually be noir. No one's complaining, even if Fox is stretching the definition for marketing purposes; after all, it gets the movies out there. But there are some other, more noirish flicks many would like to see. So let's hope the series continues. This time out, it's "Dangerous Crossing," "Black Widow," and "Daisy Kenyon." Which of THOSE titles seems out of place?
Bee Movie: Too bad this quiet little animated pic didn't get more publicity. If only Jerry Seinfeld had been willing to do some publicity...
Sleuth: First, Jude Law starred in a remake of a Michael Caine vehicle ("Alfie"). Then Jude Law stars in ANOTHER remake of a Caine picture, "Sleuth," and Caine stars in this version, too. Like these two guys aren't in enough movies already?
South Park: The Imaginationland Trilogy: Hey, why wait for the entire season set when you can pay the same MSRP for just 3 episodes, right?
