There’s a lot going on in the entertainment world this week –
but the biggest thing is obviously the release of Marvel’s ‘The Avengers’ on
Blu-Ray and DVD Tuesday.
The film was the biggest movie hit of the summer. Bringing
together Robert Downey Jr.’s Ironman, Chris Evans’ Captain America, Mark
Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor – among others -- ‘The Avengers’
was clearly not only the best super hero movie of the summer – but possibly in
years.
The Blu-Ray features a couple of featurettes, deleted
scenes, and a gag reel.
While ‘The Avengers’ is clearly the best movie hitting
stores on Tuesday, there are a number of television sets coming out. The latest
– and in some case final – seasons of ‘CSI,’ ‘CSI: Miami,’ ‘CSI: New York,’ ‘Desperate
Housewives,’ ‘Gossip Girl’ and ‘Law & Order: SVU’ will also be avaible.
In the music world, Green Day’s ‘Uno’ album hits with 12 new
songs. This is the first of a three-album series which culminates with the
January release of ‘Tres.’
Trendy Mumford & Sons follows up their 2010 offering
with ‘Babel,’ a 15-song compilation for the deluxe album and a 12-song CD for
their regular album.
Finally, No Doubt unveils their reunion album ‘Push and
Shove,’ featuring 11 new songs.
