While there are always a few last minute shoppers out there, the majority of holiday shopping has already taken place. Movie studios know this, and new release list is very slim today in comparison to a normal week, let alone the monster weeks we've had the past few months. You can rest assured, however, that next week studios will get back into swing as they try to part you from your newly acquired gift certificates during, what they call, the fifth quarter.
But still, we must press on. This past Friday, Sony released '
The House Bunny', which Universal followed on Sunday by releasing '
Burn After Reading' and '
Death Race'. Looking at today's list, music fans should look for Blu-ray titles '
Aventura - Sold Out at Madison Square Garden' and '
Robert Carlos - En Vivo', if you have any idea who those people are (I don't). In fact, the only real releases that might catch your attention are
Paramount two-packs of previously released Blu-ray titles at a new lower price. If you've missed some of these titles, now is a good time to pick them up.
This Saturday, Paramount will be releasing '
The Duchess' and '
Ghost Town', while Sony releases '
Resident Evil: Degeneration'. These non-Tuesday titles are becoming more and more numerous, so make sure you keep track of them in your
Blu-ray collection.
Edit: Forgot about '
Eagle Eye, which is also coming out this weekend.
