Hitting Shelves This Week…

News

Whew, not much happening this week in the world of DVDs, but maybe that’s because so much is going on in theatres. The Dark Knight people, nuff said! But for those that don’t wish to venture outside their homes other then going to their local DVD retailer; there’s at least a few new titles ready for your collection. New seasons of Saving Grace, B.L. Stryker, Reno 911!, and Dallas are on their way for all your television fixes. If you’re in the mood for action, comedy, or horror then pick up The Bank Job, College Road Trip, or the remake of the Japanese film Shutter. Not much else going on, but surely there’s something you can find to watch. And I’ll stop calling you Shirley, sorry.
