What's the fastest movie to dvd release?
Most movies usually take 5-7 months till they get to dvd. I just saw Hellboy on dvd and can't believe its out already...unless 5-6 months went by that fast already...but then it got me wondering what was the fastest movie to dvd release? Anyone know?

Ghosts of Mars probably made the fastest jump at the time, but I'm sure it's been upstaged by now. From Justin To Kelly must have been really shitty. 
Any bets on Catwoman?

Didn't The Secret Window come out pretty fast too? I remember seeing ads for it in the theater and then only a month or two later it was on DVD.

"Catwoman" is doing so poorly that the DVD is coming out next Tuesday. One of the bonus features is that you can click on the cat's eye icon and actually erase the entire film and watch old episodes of "Batman".

I thought it was 'The Simple Life Season One,' but I don't think TV counts in this discussion, does it?

Justin to Kelly hit theatres on June 20 and hit disc on August 26.
New York Minute hit theatres on May 7 and disc on August 17.
Although with titles like Tears of the Sun, Secret Window, Hellboy.... it seems that on average, Sony has the quickest turnaround.
