 'Life'
in a lunchbox - 12:22am
It took a while, but BMG Music has finally announced My So-Called
Life: The Complete DVD Collection. Although short-lived, this
highly acclaimed teen drama was nominated for several Emmy and
Golden Globe awards, and now all 19 episodes are coming to DVD
in one giant set. This 5-disc collection runs 900 minutes and
is presented in 4:3 full screen and 5.1 surround. A very limited
special edition "Lunch Box" will also be released only
via select retailers, and includes a bonus 6th disc with all-new
interviews with the shows creators. Retail is $99.95 for the standard
edition (no MSRP available for the Lunch Box.) Street date 10/8.
Brain candy - 12:22am
More cult fun making its way to DVD this holiday season is the
latest Kids in the Hall release, The Kids in the Hall: Tour of
Duty. This live special documents their highly successful reunion
tour this past year, and features the full show presented in 1.78:1
anamorphic widescreen and 5.1 Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1, with
