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. In addition to my selections below, you can also check out the dreamboat special that is Leatherheads and Simon Pegg's comedy Run, Fat Boy, Run.

For the second weekend in a row, Jim Sturgess and gang were No. 1 at the box office — though the overall March slump continued. 21 was down a bit from the weekend before but held on to the top spot with a weekend take of $15 million.

Leatherheads is neither an exhilaratingly triumphant sports movie, nor a funny 1920s romance with a ton of old-timey spark and charm. It's got adorable men (George Clooney, John Krasinski), one really fine performance (Renee Zellweger), and some good costumes but everything else is pretty mediocre. There's nothing so good about this film that I would recommend seeking it out in the theater.

Happy April! Here in my part of the world, the sun is shining brightly, but I still plan to be inside a good part of this month due to movie releases like Baby Mama and Leatherheads — not to mention the great TV returning this month. In addition to new movies and good TV, this April brings some fabulous new music, an exciting new read and a few Oscar darlings on DVD.

The sunlight might be lasting longer and longer these days, but I'm still planning to spend time indoors at the movie theater this Spring. What is striking about the movies coming out this season is the variety: From quirky little indies that premiered at Sundance to highly anticipated blockbusters, you can check out the movies I'm most excited to view in the coming months by pressing "Start."

George Clooney is handsome and fast-talking, John Krasinski is the good-looking big man on campus, and Renee Zellweger is sassy and wears hats. I'm sold! The new trailer for Leatherheads, directed by George Clooney is a sight for wary eyes after the release date for this film was pushed back.

I was pretty wary when I noticed that we've been getting all sorts of trailers for winter movies (like the one for Sweeney Todd, and the one for Juno, and the one for The Golden Compass), but we have seen nothing resembling a trailer for the George Clooney period movie Leatherheads. The film also stars Renee Zellweger and John Krasinski and was originally scheduled to open on December 7.
Now Variety is reporting that Leatherheads will not open until April 4, 2008.

I recently came across a couple of movie stills that I thought were super cool, so here they are in a nice end-of-Monday post. Knowing how many of you are John Krasinski fans, too, I knew you'd appreciate this first one from the set of Leatherheads. The movie is George Clooney's third directorial venture, and I can't wait to see what he does with the comedic material.
