DVD icon

The big releases this week are Silver Linings Playbook and Guilt Trip. I want to see the former but will probably skip the latter. Also this week, all the Star Trek movies are being released on Blu-Ray.

These are some of the new DVDs released this week, the ones I find interesting or of note.
