"    Dollhouse: Season One 4 DVD Set (2009)     Dollhouse is Charlie&amp;#039;s Angels by way of The Matrix, but with a scrapped pilot episode and middling reviews, many felt that the latest addition to the &amp;quot;Whedon-verse&amp;quot; would suffer the same fate as Joss Whedon&amp;#039;s earlier Fox series, Firefly. However, due to overwhelming fan support and a batch of strong episodes in the latter half of the season, Dollhouse has been picked up for a second season with the addition of Reaper&amp;#039;s Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters to the writing staff. Eliza Dushku, who previously appeared in Whedon&amp;#039;s Buffy the Vampire Slayer and its spinoff, Angel, plays Caroline, a young woman who has had her personality and memories downloaded to a computer and signed over control of her body to the mysterious company known as the Dollhouse. Now known only as Echo, Caroline and the other &amp;quot;Dolls&amp;quot; in the house serve as blank slates to have new memories and skills imprinted upon them in order to carry out various engagements for their employer&amp;#039;s wealthy and often unsavory clients. In addition to the 12 episodes aired, Dollhouse: Season One four-DVD set also includes the original pilot, &amp;quot;Echo,&amp;quot; as well as the unaired 13th episode, &amp;quot;Epitaph One.&amp;quot; Extras include: * Audio commentary on select episodes * Original unaired Pilot &amp;quot;Echo&amp;quot; * Deleted scenes * &amp;quot;Making Dollhouse&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Coming Home * &amp;quot;Finding Echo * &amp;quot;Designing the Perfect Dollhouse * &amp;quot;A Private Engagement        Green Lantern: First Flight Two-Disc Special Edition (2009)     While Marvel Comics has been very successful in producing a number of films with several different studios, including Spider-Man at Sony, Iron Man at Paramount and Wolverine at Fox, DC Comics has only developed films through its parent company, Warner Bros., with mixed results. Producer Bruce Timm, creator of Batman: The Animated Series and Justice League Unlimited, decided that the best way to introduce the non-comic-book-reading-world to many of DC&amp;#039;s most well-known characters and stories would be through a line of direct-to-DVD animated features. Like the Wonder Woman movie that came out earlier this year, Green Lantern: First Flight provides a starring vehicle to a classic DC character that has yet to appear in a live-action film, introducing the character, his origin and the characters that make up his unique world. Test-pilot Hal Jordan (Christopher Meloni) is given a strange ring by a dying alien and by accepting becomes a member of the Green Lantern Corps, a galactic police force who can channel their willpower through their rings, giving them extraordinary powers. Extras include: * Sneak Peek at DC Universe&amp;#039;s Superman/Batman: Public Enemies * Behind the Scenes of DC Comics Epic, Blackest Night * &amp;quot;Behind the Story with Geoff Johns&amp;quot; * Green Lantern Corps Character Profiles * Duck Dodgers series episode: &amp;quot;The Green Loontern&amp;quot; * Bruce Timm Presents 2 Bonus Cartoons, Justice League Unlimited: &amp;quot;Once and Future Thing, Parts One and Two&amp;quot;        Fast &amp;amp;amp; Furious Two-Disc Special Edition (2009)     Along with the original cast of The Fast and the Furious, including Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster and Michelle Rodriguez, the writing and directing duo of Chris Morgan and Justin Lin return after helming their own The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. Set between the events of the second and third films in the series, Fast &amp;amp;amp; Furious finds Dom (Diesel), his girlfriend Letty (Rodriguez) and the rest of his crew hijacking fuel tankers in the Dominican Republic. When someone close to Dom is murdered, he heads to L.A. on the trail of drug lord Arturo Braga (John Ortiz) and crosses paths with FBI Agent Brian O&amp;#039;Conner (Paul Walker) who&amp;#039;s also gunning for Braga. Sure, there is an in-depth plot here, but these films have always been about the cars, races, chases and stunts. In accomplishing this, Fast &amp;amp;amp; Furious delivers the goods. Extras include: * Audio commentary with director Justin Lin * Gag reel * Los Bandoleros short prequel film directed by Vin Diesel, that leads up to the events in Fast &amp;amp;amp; Furious * &amp;quot;Under the Hood: Muscle Cars&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Getting the Gang Back Together&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Driving School with Vin Diesel&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Shooting the Big Rig Heist&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Races and Chases&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;High Octane Action: The Stunts&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;South of the Border: Filming in Mexico&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Blanco&amp;quot; music video from rapper Pitbull, featuring Pharrell Williams        The Middleman: The Complete Series 4-Disc Set(2008)     Javier Grillo-Marxuach is no stranger to sci-fi, having served as a writer/producer on such shows as Charmed, Medium and Lost. His geek cred continued to grow as he wrote comic books for Marvel and created his own independent series, The Middleman. ABC Family picked up The Middleman for a 13-episode run, but because of low ratings pulled the plug before the last episode was shot. Grillo-Marxuach recently corrected this slight by reuniting the cast for a live table reading of the unfilmed 13th episode, &amp;quot;The Doomsday Armageddon Apocalypse&amp;quot; at this year&amp;#039;s San Diego Comic Con (Watch a clip of the event below!). Wendy Watson (Natalie Morales) is a recent art school grad who, after applying for a temp job, finds herself the unwitting sidekick to the Middleman (Matt Keesler), who, as he puts it, is an &amp;quot;international consultant that solves exotic problems for corporations, individuals and even governments.&amp;quot;  Extras include: * Commentaries with the cast and crew * Deleted and extended scenes * Web featurettes * Gag reel * Audition footage * The complete &amp;quot;The Palindrome Reversal Palindrome&amp;quot; table read * A gallery of Middleman photography by Ralph King        Severed Ways: The Norse Discovery Of America (2007)     New York filmmaker Tony Stone spent months in the woods of Vermont and Newfoundland living very much like the Viking subjects in his DIY opus, Severed Ways: The Norse Discovery of America. Armed with a short, nearly wordless script and an HD camera, Stone set out to chronicle the unknown history of L&amp;#039;Anse Aux Meadows, Newfoundland, one of the first Viking settlements in the Americas, mysteriously abandoned. Viking scouts Orn (Stone) and Volnard (Fiore Tedesco) return to find the smoldering remains of their camp and their friends dead or missing. Their expedition clearly driven off by the Skraelings (Native Americans), the Vikings decide their only choice is to brave the dangers and walk home. The Severed Ways 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen aspect ratio showcases the natural beauty of the landscapes while the Dolby digital 5.1-channel surround sound showcases the metal and ambient soundtrack by artists such as Judas Priest, Dimmu Borgir, Queens of the Stone Age and Brian Eno. Extras include: * Severed scenes * &amp;quot;Scenic Ambience&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Slow Burn&amp;quot; * &amp;quot;Back Home: L&amp;#039;anse Aux Meadows, Newfoundland&amp;quot;      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
