Answer Man, G.I. Joe, Beth Cooper, Taking of Pelham 123, You're Welcome America
New DVD Releases Tuesday, Nov. 3
By Bill Frost @bill_frost
| The Answer Man A spiritual-book author (Jeff Daniels) is stumped by a single mom (Lauren Graham) looking for the meaning of life. A better question would be, “When is Lauren Graham going to make another watchable movie, like Bad Santa 2?” MagPictures.com |
|
| G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra The sexy G.I. Joe team battles sexy Cobra, an evil organization bent on world domination and the destruction of all things unsexy. Based on lame old ‘70s action figures that were not at all capable of protecting the world, nor were they sexy. Paramount.com |
|
| I Love You, Beth Cooper A sheltered high school valedictorian (Paul Rust) declares his love/lust for cheerleader Beth Cooper (Hayden Panetierre) at an assembly and somehow, an entire movie springs forth from that. Based on a book that wasn’t much better. FoxHome.com |
|
| The Taking of Pelham 123 The criminal mastermind from Swordfish (John Travolta) takes the New York City subway system hostage, and only a dispatcher (Denzel Washington) can stop him! Based on the Beastie Boys tune that referenced the ‘70s original. Sony.com |
|
| Will Ferrell: You’re Welcome, America From Broadway, Will Ferrell’s stage tribute to the man, the myth, the moron, George W. Bush. It’s as tragically funny, weirdly poignant and utterly incomprehensible as the eight-year Bush presidency itself. So, it’s like history. HBO.com |
