It’s been a week since our last entry in the blog. We’ve been really busy traveling around Spain, and haven’t been able to get as much done as we wanted. But, we’re back in the office now, so please accept our apologies!
This week’s set of DVD releases is an interesting and almost uniformly excellent bunch (Chipmunks, kaff). The most unlikely Best Picture nominee, An Education, is the strongest of the more traditional pictures. But the Criticker Pick of the week is Under the Sea 3D — released into IMAX theaters over a year ago, and now available for your home.
