CBR put out this new clip from Justice League: Doom, the next DC animated cartoon straight-to-DVD movie (with Kevin Conroy as Batman and Tim Daly as Superman, no less), which features Batman fighting the Royal Flush Gang and is looking pretty keen. The Gang seems to be certain that Batman wouldn't fight them alone, which seems pretty presumptuous to me. They're hardly the Injustice League or anything. Batman went to fight fucking Darkseid alone in Final Crisis; I seriously don't think he gets up in the morning and worries about whether he's going to have to take one the entire Royal Flush Gang by his lonesome. Sure, Batman probably doesn't mind having the rest of the Justice League pop up to help, but I feel reasonably certain Bats could have handled the situation if they didn't.

​• Star Trek: the Next Generation: The Next Level
The long-awaited Blu-ray of three classic episodes -- "Encounter at Far Point," "Sins of the Father" and "The Inner Light" -- is oddly named, but it looks gorgeous. Look here if you don't believe me.

• TF
Hey, if Michael Bay refuses to brand his 7-disc Blu-ray set/monstrosity with anything resembling Transformers then I'm sure as hell not going to do his work for him.

• The Thing
The other Thing. The Thing with Ramona Flowers, not John Carpenter's Thing.

• Fairy Tail Part 3

• One Piece: Collection 4
Fairy Tale Part 3 is outselling One Piece Collection 4. This makes me sad. Also the fact that this fourth set has Chopper on the cover instead of Usopp makes me mad. My fellow One Piece fans will understand why.

• 2-Headed Shark Attack
This little cinematic masterpiece stars Carmen Electra and Hulk Hogan's daughter Brooke, and yet I don't think they're playing the heads of the shark. Weird.

​• Real Steel
Sad news --only the Blu-ray comes with deleted scenes.

• Godzilla: The Criterion Collection
Contains the original Japanese version and the U.S. version with Raymnond Burr, both remastered in highest definition possible, and with tons of extras only Criterion would include (and could find). Available on Blu-ray and DVD.

• Ancient Aliens: Season 3
Are you fucking kidding me? Three whole seasons based on the premise that aliens were dicking around with our ancestors?

• Naruto Shippuden Box Set 9

• Scooby-Doo: Mystery Inc. Season One Part 2
Since everyone talks so highly about this cartoon, I figured I'd better list it.

• The Nude Vampire
It's no Nude for Satan.

• Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Season One
As far as I can tell, the complete Buck was released on DVD in 2004, and now in 2012 they're finally releasing season one. Weird. Oh well.

• Porn Star Zombies
Well, I'm glad we finally got that concept out of the way.

• Star Wars XXX: A Porn Parody
And in real porn news, the Star Wars porn flick finally comes out today. You can watch the safe-for-work, shockingly unerotic trailer here. I wonder, you know how George Lucas has been saying if people don't watch The Phantom Menace in 3-D, he won't bother releasing the other ones? Well, I wonder if the same is true for the Star Wars pornos. If people don't buy this, will we never get Return of the Jedi and hardcore Slave Leia action? Food for thought.

​• Merlin: The Complete Third Series
Yes, this is the top-selling nerd DVD release of the week. No offense to Merlin or its fans, but that's a sign of a slow DVD Day.

• Hetalia: World Series 1 Season 3
Hetalia is an anime about the nations of the world as represented by a variety of insane, pretty teenage boys. It's Japanese as all hell. I watched the first couple of episodes on Netflix Instant and it made Excel Saga look like Grave of the Fireflies. Just sayin'.

• Redline
An anime movie about death-racing that I heard of once a couple of years ago and literally have not heard mentioned once until its video release today.

• Sliders: The Fifth and Final Season
When Jerry O'Connell decides he doesn't want to return to your show, it's seriously time to call it a day.

• Princess Resurrection Complete Collection
An anime about a princess with a chainsaw who fights various classic movie monsters. I enjoyed the manga; I'm not sure how the anime is.

• Gantz II: Perfect Answer
The oddly named sequel to the live-action Gantz movie. Anyone else weirded out about how almost everything released today is anime related?

Oh, you know what TF is, right? TF means Michael Bay's Transformers movies, obviously, which is why that new super Blu-ray box set of all three movies doesn't have any Transformers pictured on it -- because TF is all anyone needs to instantly realize what it is! Of course!

Actually, thanks to this video of Michael Bay showing off his big TF, we can see a couple of things about the set that I hadn't noticed before. First, it does actually have pictures of Optimus Prime and Megatron on it, just very faint and on the side. Second, the packaging is actually kind of cool, the way it folds out and the film stills pop up. I'm big enough to admit that. Third, I have to admit this set is actually perfect for the Bayformers trilogy. Seriously! It's unnecessarily big, it has a lot of wasted space, and in the center of it all is a big phallic object. Truly, when I think of Bayformers, I think of these things a lot quicker than I do transforming robots.

Oh -- does Michael Bay really believe that if you don't have a 3-D TV or a Blu-ray player, you should get the Dark of the Moon set with the 3-D version, Blu-ray version and the DVD version in it... instead of, you know, just the DVD version? I think he does. Wow. (Via /Film)

​• Serenity
On Blu-ray. Weirdly, at the moment the Blu-ray by itself is $12.50, yet the Blu-ray/DVD combo is $8.50, and the Collector's Edition DVD is $25. As my periodic reminder that I don't actually love Joss Whedon, despite the TR commenters say, I won't be buying any of these.

• The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption
Oh, Ron Perlman. You really didn't have anything better to do?

• Doctor Who: The Android Invasion and Invasion of the Dinosaurs
That's a lot of invasions.

• Primeval: Vol. 3

• Paul
The unrated and theatrical versions in one DVD set (previously only available on Blu-ray).

• Legend: Ultimate Edition
On Blu-ray, finally. Truly, if there's a way Tim Curry is meant to be seen as The Darkness, it's in HD.

• G.I. Joe Series 2: Season 1
The post-movie, DiC-made cartoon with Cobra Commander in armor. Includes the Operation: Dragonfire miniseries.

​Sorry for both the straightforward article title and the fact I'm sending you off to another site, but Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive video of the old Star Trek: The Next Generation footage next to the new, remastered HD footage for the upcoming Blu-rays, and it's gorgeous. The image above does not do it justice; definitely go watch the video -- a short clip from "Encounter at Farpoint" -- and then come back here to complain how they're only releasing that three-episode TNG Blu-ray collection at the end of January, and you have to wait until some undisclosed point later in 2012 for the full season one set. Much thanks to DrewCPU for the tip!

​Do you hate movies, money, or yourself? Then you might be interested to know that Paramount has announced Transformers Seven-Disc Limited Edition Collector's Trilogy, due out on January 31st. Please note that this differs from the recently released Transformers Trilogy boxed set in that it is Blu-ray, comes with "a plaque of movie images signed by director Michael Bay" and comes in the above packaging, which is stupidly designed, puts dumb, obnoxious form over any sort of function, is devoid of any kind of personality, and most importantly has jack shit to do with Transformers (even the ones from the goddamned movies). It's like the DVD box set in that it has a big "TF" on it, obviously, but it can't even bother to put a fucking robot on it, let alone an Autobot, Decepticon, or just the normal Transformers logo. Really, the only way this Blu-ray set could be more insulting to actual Transformers fans if it had a picture of Michael Bay graphically shitting on a G1 Optimus Prime toy on the front. But even that would imply Transformers were somehow involved. (Via Seibertron)

​• Archer: Season 2
Along with The Venture Bros., one of the two funniest cartoons on TV. Period. Everyone buy eight copies so we can get five more seasons.

• Apollo 18
A sci-fi horror flick about a secret moon mission. I had heard of this, but had no idea it ever made it to theaters. Oh well.

• Fairy Tail: Part 2
I don't generally include non-initial anime releases, but Fairy Tail: Part 2 here made it to Amazon's Top 15 for the week, so that seemed notable. Of course, this might be because today's DVD releases are pretty pitiful, but that seemed a bit mean-spirited to mention.

• Looney Tunes Golden Collection
All six of the excellent Golden Collections, complete with an exclusive flimsy cardboard box, for only $90.

• In the Name of the King 2: Two Worlds
The Uwe Boll-directed, Dolph Lundgren-starring, totally unnecessary sequel to Uwe Boll's Dungeon Siege movie. The trailer is here if you need reminding how fucking goofy it is.

​• Warrior
If you're wondering how Tom Hardy will handle his brawls with Batman in The Dark Knight Rises, this might be your best preview: a martial-arts drama about two estranged brothers competing in the same tournament. It's also a critically lauded movie about redemption and family bonds, but...eh, I'm going with the Batman angle.

• Futurama Volume 6
The second half of Futurama's sixth season, featuring such episodes as "All the Presidents' Heads," "Law & Oracle," and the first character study of robot mobster Clamps. There's also the gender-flipping story of "Neutopia," which has nothing to do with the old TurboGrafx action-RPG of the same name.

• Columbiana
Luc Besson (Nikita, The Fifth Element) produced this movie instead of directing it, but it's pretty his kinda movie: a vengeful, lethally trained woman tears shits up with firearms, martial arts, parkour, and anything else that looks stylish. One critic compared it to the MST3Ked classic Danger: Diabolik, and that's a sterling recommendation if ever I heard one. The Blu-Ray also comes with a digital copy of Ultraviolet, or rather, a digital copy of the same film. Sorry, Ultraviolet fans.

• Straw Dogs
Sam Peckinpah's vicious tale of revenge rattled a lot of people back in 1971, but this isn't that movie. It's director Rod Lurie's remake, updated with a bunch of modern political subtext. At the very least, it's something to argue over.

• Rosario + Vampire and Heaven's Lost Property
If you want to convince someone that anime's not all derivative crap, then buy Redline next month and show it to them. But if you want to reinforce every negative perception of Japan's animated output, these two series stand ready to help you. Rosario + Vampire is an awful sex-comedy about a bland teenager who attends a school full of vampires and succubi and other creatures of the night. As for Heaven's Lost Property, the borderline not-work-safe cover tells you all you need to know.

• Dolphin Tale
A treacly little family film where a socially maladjusted boy's summer is brightened by dolphins and Harry Connick, Jr. I'll give it credit for not spelling its title Dolphin Tail.
