After a week off for the Fourth of July, the DVD picks are back with a nice lineup of big comedies, cartoons, horror movies and Matthew McConaughey’s hair. It’s hard to think of a better belated birthday present to America than that DVD rundown.
But that’s not all. There’s also a couple of critically acclaimed Cable Series unleashing their latest seasons on DVD and the absolute worst DVD you’ll see anywhere.
Check it out below…

Battle: Los Angeles debuted at the top of its pack this weekend, making more than any film, including Red Riding Hood and Mars Needs Moms. The thriller generated $36 million, while Red Riding Hood produced just over $14 million, and placed third. Last week we predicted that Rango would place before the new Disney film Mars Needs Moms, and we were right. Rango kept up there (and ranked No.2) grossing $23.1 million, while Mars Needs Moms bombed grossing only $5 million.

Step aside Coen Brothers, there’s a new western film in town, and it stars a green cockeyed lizard in some authentic cowboy attire, Rango. The Johnny Depp animated featured followed the success of last weekend’s top choice Gnomeo and Juliet lassoing in a hefty $38 million during its opening weekend. Another successful newcomer was Matt Damon and Emily Blunt‘s The Adjustment Bureau. The Universal picture was No. 2 making over $20 million.
Though our box office predictions were rather popular, we didn’t get it all right, we had predicted that Beastly would be down in the bottom half of the top 10, but the romance-fantasy film surprised us and came in at No. 3 grossing $10 million.

When you’re Johnny Depp, everyone wants to talk to you, about you, with you… and when sitting in front of certain members of the press, they want to dig a little too deep sometimes. One of the things that makes Johnny Depp who he is, is that not only does he not take issue with inappropriate or random questions, he actually takes it a step further and says something even more random in response. Normally he’ll bring it back at the end and give some kind of “real” answer but not without a bit of fun and a few statements that most celebs wouldn’t dare say. And why? He’s Johnny Depp, why not?
So now let’s take a look at a little piece I like to call “Fucking With The Press ” with some of my favorite ridiculous moments from the Rango press conference (read the more serious version here)…

This week in theaters, Gore Verbinski‘s latest extravaganza, Rango hits theaters. This film takes of number of interesting, artistic risks and is able to do so because of the powerhouses behind it. Gore has just come off the successful Pirates franchise and if you’ve seen any of the posters for this film you should know that “Johnny Depp is Rango.” Normally I don’t like such blatant advertising but because I support this film and always applaud a metaphorical head trip with many fine cinematic references, I’ll back that up — Johnny Depp is Rango along with the lovely and hysterical Isla Fisher as the rough, tough and sometimes frozen Beans and the adorable and witty Abigail Breslin as the sweetly sinister Priscilla — and you should see it.
We sat down with the crew to talk about the film, find out what they had to say below…
