This week offers a number of this year’s earlier films, most of which failed to make much of an impression at the box office. This was sad for Arnold Schwarzenegger, and for Warner Brothers, who thought they might have the next Twilight/Harry Potter on their hands. There’s also a ton of cool older titles hitting DVD and Blu-ray this week....

CLOUD ATLAS
For whatever reason Warner Brothers delayed the release of Cloud Atlas until now, which is surprising as it came out in October, and most films have a four to five month window before the hit home video. Well, we're glad it's here. It's a very strong week for catalog titles as well, so check out what's hitting this week.

One of the year’s most talked about films is already hitting Blu-ray, but that’s partly because of the way it was made. Upstream Color and Jack Reacher are the highlights of the week, with a ton of new catalog titles hitting as well. Saddle up for some expenses, fellow collectors.

There are a number of more new releases to home video today than in the last couple weeks, which is exciting, but most are wash outs from earlier this year and from last year. There are some great catalog titles, which is nice. Check it out…

As we head into the summer season, we’re starting to see some 2013 releases hitting DVD and Blu-ray just as some of the last films from 2012 are hitting the format. It’s an okay week for releases, but it’s hard to get super excited about any of the new films. Check it out…

Django Unchained Movie Review
Another slow week for DVD and Blu-ray releases, but hey, hopefully your taxes are done, and you can pick up Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained. Otherwise, there’s a great classic 80’s film hitting the Criterion collection, and some classic Jackie Chan films.

We’re in a slow season for DVD and Blu-ray as many of the big Christmas films have hit disc, or are about to (waiting on you Django Unchained), and as such of late it’s more a steady trickle of slightly interesting titles than any big wallet busting weeks. There are some great titles to chose from, and you can check them out below.

This is one of the most pathetic weeks of new releases in quite some time. Seriously, ridiculously under-stuffed. There’s an HBO movie, and one of the cult films that got some attention a while back, and two musicals from Fox. And that’s about it.

An Oscar winner, some television and some great catalog titles are the treats of the week. And those who love Star Trek are getting one of the better (though maligned) shows on Blu-ray. All in all a good week for fans.

This week brings The Hobbit and Zero Dark Thirty to DVD and Blu-ray, which is exciting, and some of the most anticipated Criterion releases of the year. So, not a bad week. New: Bachelorette: This is hit VOD last year, and was a minor triumph, and is now coming to DVD/Blu-ray. Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fisher, and Lizzy Caplan...

Slow week for Blu-rays and DVD, but one of the fall's most charming films is hitting the format, along with one of Steven Spielberg's masterpieces. All that and a few others in this week's picks.

Perhaps in the haze of the post-Oscar season, there wasn’t a lot of pressure to put out films on Blu-ray this week, but we are getting two of the best films of last year, and one of the Coen Brothers’ most underrated films (partly because it was a bomb on release).

For those who’ve bought the Bond box set, this week you can finally add the latest film to that set. There’s also some of the fall’s flops, and missed opportunities. Bond dominates this week of DVD and Blu-ray releases.

We’re starting to get some of the Fall’s Oscar Pictures hitting home video, one of the most interesting documentaries of the year, and one classic Walt Disney film from the vaults. Not a bad weekend for home video.

HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA
A couple of the fall’s more interesting movies hit DVD and Blu-ray this week, which means it’s going to be easy to play catch up with some of the films that may have slipped by during their theatrical runs. There are also some good classic titles this week, and a box set of a franchise that just turned twenty five.

This week offers a weird collection of late fall titles that either could have been Oscar contenders or something more. But most died on the vine. There’s Taken 2, and that should be the big hit this week, while Fox has a ton of catalog titles, and there’s a couple of new and classic Woody Allen’s. Take a look…

The holidays are officially over, and though this week offers mostly also-ran titles, there a couple in here that should be interesting to watch if you skipped them in the theater. Classics-wise, Universal and Criterion are putting out some interesting titles, so it’s a nice week for DVD and Blu-ray.

This week brings a tidal wave of new releases. In fact there’s no notable classic or older titles coming out for the next week. Such is Christmas. What is coming is some of the August and September’s surprise hits, and biggest misses. Check it out.
