Each and every week dozens of DVDs hit the shelves, and many of them get lost in the mix. CraveOnline has compiled a list of all the newest DVD releases, with a special emphasis on a few worth keeping an eye out for.
Wanted (Blu-ray) (Blu-ray collector's gift set) (collector's gift set)
Fast cars, big guns and Remo Williams-style ninja action rules the day in this Mark Millar series adaptation. Mild-mannered pushover and Chicago accountant Wesley Gibson (Atonement's James McAvoy) is rescued from a sharpshooter by the tatted, "hey look at me I'm still dangerous" Fox (Angelina Jolie), after which he's whisked away to a mansion on the edge of town to meet the other members of the Fraternity. It's here that Fraternity leader Sloan (Morgan Freeman) informs Wesley that Cross, the rogue agent that tried to kill him, was actually the man who executed his father. Wesley, of course, gets his badass-training on, and becomes an unlikely killing maching. But when he heads out to fulfill his destiny, Wesley begins to realize that he hasn't been told the entire truth.
This extremely limited Box Set edition of their 2008 live DVD release includes the DVD, a vinyl LP featuring 10 tracks recorded live at Stubbs' Texas 2006, a film poster, four postcards and a set of Pete McKee exclusive illustrations of the band. Arctic Monkeys At The Apollo showcases these youthful UK firecrackers as they deliver one of their most intense performances to date. Directed by Richard Ayoade and edited by BAFTA winning editor Nick Fenton (The Boy Who's Skin Fell Off, Sigur Ros documentary Heima ), the film is produced by BAFTA winning Diarmid Scrimshaw from acclaimed Warp Films. Check it out - personally, I think these guys sound much better on the dance floor than on my TV set, but maybe that's just me.
Metalocalypse - Season 2
Season Two of Metalocalypse is every bit as deadly, explosive and metal as Season One, following the exploits of Dethklok, a heavy metal band so popular that they've become one of the largest economies in the world. They fly around in a gigantic metal helicopter, employing thousands of hooded minions to cater to their every whim while lounging around their compound, Mordhaus. Mayhem knows no bounds as we embark on a quest of metal with vocalist and lyrical genius Nathan Explosion (voiced by co-creator and co-writer Brendon Small), second fastest guitar player in the world Toki Wartooth (voiced by co-creator and co-writer Tommy Blacha), hateful bass player William Murderface (Blacha again), fastest guitar player in the world Skwisgaar Skwigelf (Small again), and former Snakes And Barrels member Pickles the drummer (Small). Not to be missed among the diehards. If you've missed the boat so far, go back to Season One. Otherwise you'll be lost.
