Hello.

Our weekly list includes 330 new DVDs, 36 Blu-ray and 2 UMDs this time around. I've added a new symbol for you to click on - it signifies a movie's website if it is available. Hover over it to find out where it'll take you. I'd been including a lot of them lately and thought this might break things up a bit. Of course, THIS week the number of links I found went way down. So it goes...

You know the drill - hover over titles for prices (cheapest during the preorder!), click to order, more info and trailers can be access at the movie websites or the distributing company's link, where I've found one to provide you.

Weekly lists going back to the beginning of 2007 are available elsewhere on the board - click on the "DVD" thread icon to explore!

PICK OF THE WEEK
Listen Up!: The Lives of Quincy Jones (The W at Amazon) (1990) Includes three documentaries including the brand new "Q: The Man" (direct to DVD, 2009) He sure is.

I picked up three of the new WWE "24/7" DVDs today at Best Buy. There are six all together.

They had them merched on an endcap with a sign that said "save $10 when you buy 2 WWE products," which apparently also included SD vs RAW and maybe the other WWE DVDs.

So, I almost got one of the DVDs for free, since they were $12.99 each.

I am not sure, but I believe there's a three-disc set available everywhere, and six individual discs available at Best Buy. (And presumably not at the Best Buy here in town, since I am in the Canada.) However it works, these shows are great.

I am tickled about all the Office love. Several faves of mine (Lost, Friday Night Lights, How I Met Your Mother) got noms in the "minor" categories like writing and directing, so I'm very pleased.
