On DVD This Tuesday...

Not too much to get excited about this week. A few new films that I haven't seen but look interesting. That's about it.

Complete list available here, at dvdaf.com (DVD Aficionado).

Conversations with Other Women (2005, Hans Canosa) has Aaron Eckhart, who impressed me in both Thank You for Smoking and The Black Dahlia last year, thereby absolving himself of ever having made Possession, which I hated.

Idiocracy (2006, Mike Judge) was unceremoniously dumped into theaters, with virtually no publicity. Just like Office Space.

The Illusioninst (2006, Neil Burger) has Edward Norton performing magic tricks illusions! I have no other reason for mentioning the film. It just looks neat.

The Night Listener (2006, Patrick Stettner) is based on a novel by Armistead Maupin, creator of Tales of the City. The film features Toni Collette, Sandra Oh and Rory Culkin (the good Culkin; the one from You Can Count On Me.). It's also got Robin Williams, whose presence has the potential of destroying any film at any time.
