FIENDISH RELEASES!

IN THEATERS THIS WEEK...

TRON: LEGACY: Oh, man, am I excited for this one! Tron is one of my favorites of all time and a sequel almost 30 years later is sick and fantastic and makes so much sense right now given our special effects capacities. I love that Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner are both back in supporting roles, and I'm just hoping for a thrill ride.

YOGI BEAR: Speaking of my youth, I'm less enthusiastic about a Yogi Bear movie, but it may be fun, who knows.

RABBIT HOLE (limited; expands Dec. 25; wider Jan. 14): Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhardt struggle with a tragic loss in this drama.

HOW DO YOU KNOW: I should know about this, I mean it has Reese Witterspoon and Owen Wilson and Paul Rudd and Jack Nicholson, but nope, haven't seen any spots or trailers for it. Anyway, it's a romantic comedy so go take your significant to it.

CASINO JACK (limited): Kevin Spacey stars as political lobbyist Jack Abramoff in this riotous new film.

ON DVD THIS WEEK:

THE A-TEAM: This probably won't be great, but it should be a thrill ride. Of course, I'll have to wait for it on Netflix.

CYRUS: Joanh Hill and John C. Reilly battle it out for the affections of Marisa Tomei, Hill's mother and Reilly's girlfriend, in this comedy/drama.

DESPICABLE ME: This looked like a pretty fun animated film with the hapless yellow minions stealing the show.

MICMACS: Jean-Pierre Jeunet's latest looks as fun as the rest of his films. Looking forward to it.

THE OTHER GUYS: Wil Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg in this cop buddy comedy that looked good enough for a rent.

THE LEGEND OF THE GUARDIANS: THE OWLS OF GA'HOOLE (12/17): Fantastic animated flick directed by Zach Snyder.

THE TOWN (12/17): Ben Affleck's crime drama hits the small screen. Supposedly this is a good one.

Starting with this post, I'll throw in the Netflix highlights in list form since I've already covered them on their real release dates.

On Netflix this week: 1. Lottery Ticket 2. The Kids are All Right
