All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue. Check out this week's picks!

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
I admittedly wasn't a fan of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past when it came out in theaters, but it may be worth considering if you're in the mood for a romantic comedy that doesn't make you think too much. The premise: When playboy Connor Mead (Matthew McConaughey) attends his brother's wedding, he runs into his first love Jenny (Jennifer Garner), setting off a Christmas Carol-like chain of events, complete with ghosts. Yes, the plot's contrived and Connor is incredibly smarmy, but I enjoyed the supporting cast of characters, especially Emma Stone as an 80's ghost with a bad perm and Michael Douglas as Connor's Lothario uncle.

Sugardaddy: Matthew McConaughey

After spending years flashing his six-pack abs and antics in what seemed to be an endless parade of shirtless photos, Matthew McConaughey is creating a different type of stir as father to nine-month old, Levi.

After spending years flashing his six-pack abs and antics in what seemed to be an endless parade of shirtless photos, Matthew McConaughey is creating a different type of stir as father to nine-month old, Levi. The ultimate bachelor, who will always hold a place in our hearts as stoner David Wooderson in Dazed and Confused, continues to play the romantic lead in hilarious movies like How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and next month's Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. But, since he became a parent to his son with girlfriend Camila Alves, McConaughey is a laid back daddy who manages to incorporate his lil guy into all his daily activities from surfing to movie premieres to beach strolls.

Following Levi's birth, McConaughey said:

"Everyone talked about how, oh, you have a kid, life changes, it's like 180 degrees on a dime full stop, wow. And a lot of them had an insinuation under that like, you have to stop living your life as you live it. That hasn't been the case."

While he may no longer embrace his most famous line from Dazed and Confused, "I keep getting older; they stay the same age," his take on incorporating a lil one into your lifestyle and loving it can be heeded by all new parents.
