You've GOT to be kidding, right? The original poster did not even include the long-awaited film-noir classic Double Indemnity in the poll?

I just bought The Bone Collector on HD DVD at Best Buy today. Didn't realize the 8/22 release date until I got home. I'd also like to get Good Night & Good Luck HD DVD.

I'm on the fence about Veronica Mars Season 2, I have been watching the first season but so far it hasn't impressed me a whole lot.

I also neglected to include the third season of one of my favorite TV shows, Arrested Development, in the poll AND on the list (since it wasn't on the New Release list, I forgot about it). Life kinda sucks that way. Of course, I could always go back and do this thread the way the person before the person before me did with no poll..

snip...nevermind the AD part..

and my fiance doesn't believe me when I say i'm bad with dates..

Give Rogue a break this weekend; the Yankees are playing the Red Soxes (though, considering the score of the first game, he should be in a very good mood.)

As for my choices this week:

Preordered:
Double Indemnity: Legacy Series [columbiahouse]

Later on down the line:
A Bit of Fry & Laurie: Seasons One & Two
House, M.D.: Season Two
(waiting for price drop/sale)
State of the Union

Not buying:
Grumpy Old Men/Grumpier Old Men: Double Feature (it was announced with new anamorphic OAR transfers, but turns out they used the same old FF ones)

The Wizard
Spy Game HD DVD

Like Karl I would be purchasing Grumpy/Grumpier Old Men DVD if it was in widescreen. I haven't been this pissed off since the Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory fiasco a few years ago.
