Also available this week is the first season of the awesome detective/private eye show “Burn Notice” starring Jeffrey Donovan.

 Despite having already come out on regular DVD weeks ago, the monster movie Cloverfield is now being released on Blu-ray. The same goes for There Will Be Blood.
This is just my personal opinion, but I think studios should get their act together and release the Blu-ray version at the same time they release the regular DVD version. I would have bought a Blu-ray version of Cloverfield, in fact I asked the kid at Best Buy where it was. But since I bought the regular version, thinking there wasn’t going to be a Blu-ray version, I’m not going to purchase the newly released Blu-ray version. There goes the extra $10 they would have made on the price of the Blu-ray disc.
Also out this week is the DVD version of The Andromeda Strain miniseries that aired last week, and that I failed to correctly schedule in my TiVo as a two-night event.

 This week’s new releases include two very well placed releases, one thriller that I’m bummed I missed in theaters, and two movies that are probably not worth watching, let alone buying.
Indiana Jones - The Adventure Collection is perfectly timed to get fans ready for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, while The Chronicles of Narnia Blu-ray release is just in time for the release of The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.
I’m quite looking forward to watching the Diane Lane thriller Untraceable, but I’m actually a little ashamed to have included Mad Money and The Great Debaters in this list.

I went out and bought Cloverfield on DVD on April 22nd like a good little DVD-buyer, despite the fact that it wasn’t released on Blu-ray yet.
Of course, now Bloody Disgusting has the news of a June 3rd release date for the Blu-ray edition. Was this a clever ploy to get those of us that still purchase DVDs to double buy, or were they just not ready to release the Blu-ray because they’ve added tons of extra features to it?

Release Date 7/2/2008 
This week’s new releases are completely different from each other. We have the action-thriller Jumper starring Darth Whiney and Sammy L. Then comes The Bucket List starring two of the finest actors the screen has ever known - Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. And then comes The Other Boleyn Girl starring Eric Bana, Natalie Portman, and Scarlett Johansson.
The action adventure flick National Treasure 2 comes out on DVD and Blu-ray this week. I highly recommend you pick it up. A rather timely release of 1986’s Short Circuit on Blu-ray comes out just a month before Wall-E, whose main character some believe looks like Johnny 5.
This week there’s a very special Blu-ray release - the 1996 movie Twister. While I was living smack in the middle of tornado country at that time, I still loved this movie and was looking forward to the Blu-ray release.
Now, I love Kate Beckinsale. And I love Hugh Jackman. But Van Helsing is a guilty pleasure movie. Not a buy a special collector’s edition movie. However, 
This week’s new releases are a romantic comedy, a kiddie adventure movie, and an Oscar-nominee.
Happy Birthday to me! Juno, a movie I loved, comes out today, as well as movies from Jason Statham and Ryan Gosling, two of my favorite actors. Also out this week is Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead.
This week’s new releases are a Golden Globe winner, a re-envisioning of a classic children’s cartoon from the 80s, and a Blu-ray release of M. Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable.
