DVDs:
Buy:
I Am Legend - One of the smartest and most entertaining action films of recent years comes out on a DVD with a bunch of extras and an alternate ending. Not quite worth the buy in Blu-Ray, but definitely on DVD.
Rent:
Atonement - The fifth wheel of this year's Oscar Best Picture race, Atonement isn't a bad film, it's just not particularly outstanding.
Love In The Time Of Cholera - The Oscar contender that wasn't, this movie was killed by bad reviews and bad word of mouth because it was... bad.
Southland Tales - I know nothing of this film, but it was directed by Richard Kelly, his first film since Donnie Darko. So yeah, I'm in.
Enchanted - Disney's best movie of the year comes out on DVD, with no Oscars to show for it as even 3 nominations couldn't get it the Best Original Song award.
Revolver - It's the style of movie that I like, but the reviews indicate it's not very good.
Skip:
The Seeker - The kiddie fantasy movie that never got it's feet off the ground. There were literally days of a Harry Potter film that out-earned this stinker.
CDs:
Borrow:
Be Your Own Pet - Get Awkward - A punk band that's making their first big step towards the mainstream. They aren't great, but they're still fairly decent.
Destroyer - Trouble In Dreams - Their first album was pretty good, so hopefully this one will be solid as well.
The Kills - Midnight Boom - They're getting a lot of attention, so this could be the band's big breakthrough if it's really good.
She & Him - Volume One - An indie rock experiment starring a popular actress singing for the first time.
