Hi there!

Another week, another list - this time, you can take your pick from 227 DVDs, 41 Blu-rays and 1 UMD coming available Tuesday, 12/2 (except where noted...and a lot of stuff seems to be coming out on that next Monday)

At least THIS week, there are a lot of things I could conecivably see myself purchasing. Maybe it'll be the same for you as we get into it?

We've got more info where available, be it a link to a movie's IMDb entry, a tv.com list of episodes, or the website for the film and/or its distributor. Hilarious trailers abound, and much time can be wasted.

Hovering over links provides you with Amazon's (often cheapest) preorder price - clicking takes you away from us and over there, where you can purchase if you're so inclined.

We're coming up on two years of weekly lists - you can go back to the beginning of 2007 by clicking on the "DVD" icon at the top of the page.

Enough of the chit chat, let's kick it off proper with our totally subjective

PICK OF THE WEEK
Saturday Night Live - The Complete Fourth Season (The W at Amazon) (NBC, 1978-9) I'm such a sucker for these things...they need to come out faster, though. I'm still concerned they'll just give up after season five - or skip over several (admittedly awful) seasons to get to an entirely different set of (entirely differently awful) seasons...

RUNNER-UP
Metalocalypse - Season 2 (Adult Swim, 2007-8) One of Kim's favourite shows in the whole wide world
Metalocalypse: The Complete First Two Seasons



BIG MOVIES OF THE WEEK

Step Brothers (Single-Disc Rated Edition) (2008) Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly trick my wife into liking another movie - Theatrical Edition
Step Brothers (Single-Disc Unrated Edition) Adds an extended cut
Step Brothers (Two-Disc Unrated Edition + Digital Copy) Adds a disc with the totally bogus digital copy AND the stuff you really want (deleted scenes, extended scenes, gag reel, videos, more commentary, more featurettes)
Step Brothers (+ BD Live) [Blu-ray]
Step Brothers [UMD for PSP]

Wanted (Single-Disc Widescreen Edition) (USA/Germany, 2008) James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie, Terence Stamp (oh, NOW I know why Kim wants it) - "CURVE the bullet"
Wanted (Two-Disc Special Edition) Includes a totally bogus digital copy and about an hour's worth of "extras"
Wanted (Limited Edition Collector's Gift Set) Includes...a special box, looks like a book and some postcards, and...probably not worth the extra dough
Wanted (Full Screen)
Wanted [Blu-ray]
Wanted (Limited Edition Collector's Gift Set) [Blu-ray]

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (UK/USA, 2008) Can I let you in on a secret? I...still haven't watched the DVD of the FIRST movie that I bought way back when.
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (Three-Disc Collector's Edition + Digital Copy) One disc of extras and one disc with the totally bogus...ah, I'm repeating myself, aren't I...digital copy
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (Two Disc and BD Live) [Blu-ray]
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (Three-Disc Collector's Edition + Digital Copy and BD Live) [Blu-ray] Currently priced the same in the 2-Blu and 3-Blu configurations - but still, on principle, I would ask you to avoid the digital copy
The Chronicles of Narnia Blu-ray Bundle (Amazon Exclusive) [Blu-ray] pairs the 2-Blu with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (USA/UK, 2005)

The X-Files: I Want to Believe (Single-Disc Edition) (USA/Canada, 2008) David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Amanda Peet, Billy Connolly, Xzibit
The X-Files: I Want to Believe (Three-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy) Disc 2 has many documentaries, disc 3 is another one of those totally bogus "digital copies"
The X-Files: I Want to Believe (+ Digital Copy) [Blu-ray]
The X-Files - Fight the Future [Blu-ray] (The X Files - Canada/USA, 1998)
The X-Files Movie 2-Pack (I Want to Believe / Fight the Future) [Blu-ray]

The Day the Earth Stood Still (Two-Disc Special Edition) (1951) Y'know...I won't be the first person to say this, but there's no reason this movie ever needed to be remade. Anyway, just in time for Keanu's movie comes a new 2 disc treatment that will surely make you say... "Whoa." Or, at least, "Klaatu Barada Nikto!"
The Day the Earth Stood Still (Special Edition) [Blu-ray] What?! This version includes an... "Interactive Theremin?!" GREATEST REASON YET TO BUY INTO BLU-RAY!!

The Longshots (2008) Ice Cube, Keke Palmer - people...it was a TRUE STORY - www.thelongshots-movie.com
The Longshots [Blu-ray]

Casablanca (Ultimate Collector's Edition) (1942) 3 discs and a lot of extras including - yes - a LUGGAGE TAG
Casablanca (Ultimate Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray]

Bam Margera Presents: Where the #$&% is Santa? (direct to DVD, 2008) ....I got nothin'. NEXT
Bam Margera Presents: Where the #$&% is Santa? [Blu-ray]

Fly Me to the Moon 3D (Belgium, 2008) - all sorts of famous people provide voices - www.flymetothemoonthemovie.com
Fly Me to the Moon Same thing, cheaper? Maybe not 3D? I'm not sure

Lower Learning (2008) Jason Biggs, Eva Longoria Parker, Rob Corddry, Will Sasso - I had to check...it was out ONE week in ONE theatre and grossed an astonishing $2,804 (boxofficemojo.com)

Rise of the Footsoldier (UK, 2007) "Based on the SHOCKING TRUE STORY!" - www.riseofthefootsoldier.co.uk

The Man Called Flintstone (1966)

Well, when one of those things is to Blu-Ray what The Matrix was to DVD, can't really blame anybody for the lack of competition.

OF COURSE I'm talking about Lost Season 4. WOOO GO LOST!

I assume any other week, the Lost box set would have been #1 on the chart.

Well John, its no Angel (and the season finale's Sylar/Peter fight blew) but Hiro going back in time, and all the new additions will be fun because there will be less time for nonsense like super stripper.
