DVD Releases for October 25, 2011

Time to take a look at a selection of DVD releases for Tuesday October 25, 2011!

• Captain America: The First Avenger is definitely the biggie of the week, I missed it in the theatre (crazy summer!), but in general am a fan of Chris Evans (Sunshine, The Losers) and of course will want to be familiar with this one by the time The Avengers comes out in 2012.
• Mothman Jewel Staite (Firefly) stars in this horror film with a journalist going back to her hometown for the Mothman Festival. I'm so curious!
• Attack the Block Fantastic over-the-top scifi/horror film that took me a bit to warm up to but the inner city kids won me over in the vs-the-outer-space story.
• Winnie the Pooh I'm really curious to see this classically hand-drawn animated film about everyone's favourite 'lil bear all stuffed with fluff!
• Pearl Jam Twenty One of the films I really wanted is fit in my TIFF schedule this year but it just didn't happen, I'm a huge fan of this band and can't wait to see this documentary - it's one of the few things where I nod along to something and say "Yes, I am part of *this* generation". Surprized to see it on DVD so quickly to be honest.
• Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (DVD Review) this one has that cult-happy-awesome feel to it, and how could a Finnish dark Christmas comedy be anything else? Must see on my list!
• Gamera Trilogy: Guardian of the Universe, Attack of the Legion & Revenge of Iris on BluRay because, really Japanese monster movies featuring a flying turtle should only be see on .. BluRay :)
• Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (1979, re-package) Can't wait for the December release of the new version? Why not time warp to 1979 and see the wonderful Alec Guinness version of the film!
• Eco Pirate: The Story of Paul Watson Canadian documentary centred on Paul Watson.
• Gerry French Canadian film focused on Québécois rocker Gerry Boulet and ris rise to being a rock star in the 70's and front man for Offenbach.
• Jurassic Park Ultimate Trilogy available as films and as a gift set - I think checking out these current day dinosaur films is an awesome alternative choice for Halloween scares!
