New DVDs: 'Blade Runner,' 'The Simpsons'

Pick of the week: Blade Runner
Dog of the week: Balls of Fury

This is the week of "Blade Runner," put together as Ridley Scott wants it. At least for this year.

The Warner Home Video title comes in three versions, including an "Ultimate Collector's Edition" in a silver briefcase with four discs. Here's the "Blade Runner" preview.

Also representing in 2007's last week of real video activity are "The Simpsons Movie," a revival of "Braveheart," a tricked-out "The Evil Dead," more "Adventures of Young Indiana Jones" and my old favorite "The Mod Squad."

Fine last-minute gifts, every one of them.

The Simpsons Movie is fantastic. Great gift idea. It's about $16 pretty much everywhere, and it can be enjoyed again and again. I'm not even a big fan of the show...the movie really blew me away.
