No, the date isn’t a typo. December 27 may be a
Tuesday, but December 26 is one of the biggest (if not
the biggest) shopping days of the year.
Therefore, most studios recognize the benefit of
having products available on that day, so many
releases are due on Monday. The releases that
appealed to me are listed below.

First, the genre releases:

• Dark
  Water: Jennifer Connelly in a haunted apartment.
  I didn’t manage
  to catch this in theatres, but I’ll try to catch the
  video.
• Nowhere
  Man –
  The Complete Series: This show had a small but
  devoted following.
• Roswell:
  The
  Final Declassification: This is from the History
  Channel.
• Seaquest
  DSV:
  Season One: I really enjoyed this series when it
  first launched.
  The schedule somehow kept me from keeping up with the
  complete run,
  but what I saw was good.
• Toy
  Story 2 (2
  Disk Special Edition): My mind boggles that this
  wasn’t released
  before Christmas.
• Twilight
  Zone
  – Season Five – Definitive Edition: The original
  series continues
  to come to DVD. Unlike The Outer Limits, the
  original was
  also the longest running series of The Twilight
  Zone.
• War
  of the
  Worlds: This looks like a gift set for the
  original series.

Now, the non-genre releases:

• 2046:
  I
  love this director, but the movie never screened where
  I live. I’ll
  try to track down the DVD.
• American
  Pie
  Presents – Band Camp: Because you don’t need the
  original cast to
  make money on a direct-to-video sequel.
• The
  Shield –
  The Complete Fourth Season: The well reviewed cop
  drama keeps
  coming to DVD.
• Tracey
  Takes
  On – The Complete First Season: Did you ever see
  the real
  first broadcast of the Simpsons?

Finally, the pick of the week. Toy Story 2
was a fantastic
movie that you should definitely check out (assuming
you haven’t
already.) This is both fantasy and animated, but
people don’t think
of it in those terms, because it’s just such a bloody
good movie that
people who don’t think they like fantasy or animation
want to pretend
that the terms don’t apply here. Better than the
excellent original.
