Out this week we have five DVDs to feature: Watchmen (Director's Cut), An Empress and the Warriors, Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods, Coraline, G.I. Joe A Real American Hero: Season 1.1.
: This is an amazing movie and a great gritty look at our society's social political position and a great adaptation of comic to movie. I'm even more excited to see the director's cut where I have hopes they will fix some minor issues I had with the film over the comic. watch the trailer below.

Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods
: This is a re-release of the pilot for the great show Stargate SG1. This version has some extended scenes. They removed the nudity that was in the original version since Showtime wanted it in there and it leaves the pilot not as family friendly as they wanted it to be. Christopher Judge also dubbed over some of his parts to help give more consistency to Teal'c.

: I have heard good things about this movie and did not get a chance to watch it in the theaters so now it's on my rent list. For more on Coraline read here. watch the trailer below.
