This Week on DVD – Jan. 29, 2008

dvdjan29_08.jpgAfter a few slow weeks, we finally get a another decent haul of interesting DVD releases. In stores this week we have the arcade documentary The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters, the Michael Douglas indie comedy King of California, and Jeffrey Blitz’s Rocket Science. If you want some horror/sci-fi, there’s The Invasion starring Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig, or Right At Your Door, a low budget look at a dirty bomb attack in Los Angeles. Curb Your Enthusiasm: Season 6 and Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Volume 5 are also out today, and capping off the list of releases are the instant classics Daddy Day Care, The Comebacks and the direct to video sequel Lake Placid 2.

  1. I’m getting the king of kong via netflix today (partially due to your guys’ review a while back). I signed up for the cheapest plan ($5/mo for 2 discs/mo), but am still under the 2 week free trial.

  2. Some good stuff in there this week including “The Nines” which I really enjoyed, “Rocket Science” which was fun, and “Right At Your Door” which I’m really looking forward to seeing but the big one has to be “King of Kong”. I can’t wait to share than DVD with everyone I know.

  3. theres a mor interesting cover on the flipside of the King of Kong packaging. a feature more places should pick up on.
