It’s time again, Patrollers! The DVD Patrol has been busy the last few weeks putting some special columns together and the Toddster hopes you’ve enjoyed them. Back to business time with some new DVDs and a Toddster’s Take. We even some news about a certain team with Iron Man, but more on that later.

New on DVD

The Lorax - Impressing a girl has never been an easy thing. Ted (Zac Efron) has always wanted to find that special something to impress Audrey (Taylor Swift). She’s never been an easy mark but Ted wanted to give a shot. They live in a world that doesn’t have a lot of trees left in it but Audrey tells Ted that she has always wanted to see a real one. Not sure how to go about this, Ted stumbles upon one of the last forests. He also gets the attention of the protector, the Lorax (Danny Devito), and he wants to show Ted that you can just take a tree down without paying for it in some way. He decides it’s time to show the World that taking what’s his isn’t a good thing. Can he teach Ted and the World what’s important? There is also a special Lorax DVD with three mini movies in it with a lot of action featuring the Lorax and some special friends also in stores.

New on Blu Ray

A Perfect Murder - You never know what you got until there’s a chance you could lose it all. Steven Taylor (Michael Douglas) has everything a man could want: a great job and a beautiful wife. Now there is a chance he could lose it all. Playing the stock market is always tricky and he might lose his money. Steven also finds out that his wife Emily (Gwyneth Paltrow) is seeing a friend named David (Viggo Mortenson). Steven sees a way out of his problems and starts to plot his wife’s death. The best way to do that is to use David to kill her because he has a criminal past that Emily is unaware of. David knows that Emily is also very rich and Steven thinks that’s the only reason he’s been hanging around. He goes to his weekly poker game and thinks David will be coming in to take care of her. Steven later arrives home to find his wife still alive and the man he hired to kill her is someone else. What will Steven do next? A few other movies of with Douglas from the patrol vaults include “The Game,” “Romancing the Stone,” and “Wall Street” available on DVD in stores now.

Grosse Point Blank - Everybody thinks they find something they like and it’s a good idea to stick with it. Martin Blank (John Cusack) thought he found what he was good at and became a hitman. Now the job has pretty much lost the appeal to him and he’s thinking about retiring. Martin gets invited to his 15 year class reunion and isn’t really excited about going home and being reminded of his past. Making things even more complicated is one of Martin’s competitors Grocer (Dan Akyroyd). Grocer wants Martin to join him in his new company of assassins that he’s just put together. When Martin gets home, he meets an old love named Debi (Minnie Driver) who he stood up at the prom. Can Martin come to grips with his choices and make the right ones before it’s too late? Coming up in a few weeks is “The Raven” featuring Cusack as Edgar Allen Poe who’s involved in a match of wits with a killer who’s become a copycat using the stories he’s written as inspiration. This movie is coming to DVD and will be featured in a future patrol.

Now in Theaters

Total Recall (2012) - Doug Quaid (Colin Farrell) has a good job and his wife Lori (Kate Beckinsdale) by his side. Doug can’t help but think that there’s more out there for him than the life he’s living now. He keeps dreaming of helping a woman named Melina (Jessica Biel) who’s in trouble. On his way to work one day, Doug hears about a place called “Rekall” that can implant memories and make you become anyone you want to be or feel something you’ve never felt before. Doug goes to Rekall but before they can implant anything, they find something and he’s suddenly on the run for his life, being able to do things he didn’t even know he could do. Chasing him is his own wife and the woman of his dreams appears to save him. Are Doug and Melina going to be able to uncover the truth?

The Toddster’s Take: Reboots to me can always be a waste of time. Farrell worked on “Fright Night” last year and it really wasn’t one of his best. This time he was able to come out with something good. This is the original story that worked for Arnold Schwarzenegger and it became one of his biggest movies. The filmmakers took the same basic concept and kept some elements while changing it up a bit. Biel and Beckinsdale were terrific. Check it out!

The Toddster is happy to report that the arm is healing and now I just have to work the kinks out to get back to 100%. Before we go, just have a couple of quick things to report on. Joss Whedon, who directed the Toddster’s favorite movie of the summer “The Avengers,” has been announced that he will coming back to write and direct the sequel. I also have to send a special get well message to my little cousin Mychela, born July 6, who is a bit under the weather. Hope you feel better. Next week there is a big DVD release that I’ll just say has dome games going on. What is it? Come back and you’ll see.
