Here we go again, Patrollers! The DVD Patrol is in the swing of things this week and we have a few ones to pitch to you. Including a new Toddster’s Take on the latest “Green Lantern” which was just released last week. The summer has been pretty busy so far and it’s a bit hard to guess who is going to be the big winner. When there are so many out there, it’s too hard to predict a winner. I’ve been pretty busy too. We won’t forget the main reason why we’re here. Let’s go!
New on DVD
Unknown - You never know what will happen when you’re traveling. Just ask Martin Harris (Liam Neeson). Martin goes on a trip to Germany with his wife (January Jones) for a conference. While he leaves his wife at the hotel, Martin goes in search for a missing briefcase. During his search, he becomes involved in car accident that puts him in a coma. He wakes up to learn that no one knows who he is and all of his things have gone missing. He receives another surprise when he comes back to the Hotel and someone has taken his place and his own wife doesn’t even recognize him.The only one that might be able to help him is the Taxi driver that saved his life (Diane Kruger) and she has gone missing. Will Martin be able to find out what’s going on and get his life back? My sources tell me that Neeson has been filming some scenes for the next Batman movie “The Dark Knight Rises” where his character was supposed to have died. Stay tuned!
The Adjustment Bureau - There are some that say the things that happen in your lives are all a part of destiny. David Norris (Matt Damon) was a Congressman who had just lost and was working on his speech to meet a young dancer named Elise (Emily Blunt) who crashed a wedding.

Some time later, he sees Elise on a bus and gets her number. (no one said dating was easy). David gets to work and finds a group of men doing things to his staff. They are part of a group called “The Adjustment Bureau” who perform hidden operations throughout the world. David sees what he’s not supposed to and tells them he will never tell anything about them. The Bureau goes after David to stop his relationship with Elise. David is determined to spend his life with her and will do anything to be with her. Why is the Bureau trying to stop them from being together? Damon teams up with “Oceans 11” Director Steven Soderburgh for a new thriller called “Contagion” coming to theaters in October.
