• Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

This might be the release that decides the Blu Ray/HD-DVD war. Warner Bros is the last major studio to still release movies in both formats, having not yet been bought out by Microsoft. There are rumors now that Warner Bros might be deciding between the two camps in time for CES next month.

HARRY POTTER is their biggest release between now and then. So they’d be watching the sales figures on this release VERY closely. If there’s a big disparity between Blu Ray and HD-DVD format numbers on this movie Warner Bros could use that to choose a side.

Those covers above, by the way, are the regular DVD edition, the HD-DVD/Standard DVD edition, and the Blu-Ray edition.

• The Bourne Ultimatum

Sure, it goes over the edge in the Believability Column at the end, but it’s still a pretty cool movie trilogy.

• Lost Season Three

Remember LOST? It got really good down the stretch there last season. Then, it changed the game completely and left us hanging off a cliff. It’s going to do the same exact thing in the shortened fourth season coming up. I love it.

• High School Musical 2 - Extended Edition

Why? It’s Christmas time! How many letters to Santa will include this bad boy in it? How many parents wouldn’t be able to tell the difference on the store shelves between the extended edition and the regular edition? ::sigh::

Next week, we’ll have more DVDs, but not too many. And on Christmas week, we’ll likely have none, but let’s not get TOO FAR ahead of ourselves.
