This Week on DVD – May 20, 2008

The major new release on DVD this week is National Treasure 2, coming out just in time to compete with the original adventure franchise, the far superior Indiana Jones series! Also out this week is the Happy Madison comedy Strange Wilderness, George A. Romero’s latest zombie film Diary of the Dead, and Justin Lin’s mockumentary on Bruce Lee’s final film Finishing The Game. A few interesting documentaries this week including one about an Australian surf gang called Bra Boys, and a mini-series from Brett Morgen (Chicago 10, The Kid Stays in the Picture) about a small-town high school basketball team called Nimrod Nation (note that Operation Homecoming: Stories from the Heart is a TLC special, and not related to the Oscar-nominated Operation Homecoming: Writing the Wartime Experience as far as I know). All this plus the third season of The Muppet Show and Short Circuit on Blu-ray! How can you go wrong?
