If you’re a fan of NBC’s Thursday night line-up, chances are you’ve had a date night with Steve Carell and Tina Fey. If you want to make a new date night official, you can check out their latest comedy Date Night, available now on DVD and Blu-ray. So join the comedy duo in New York City and get some drinks at the new trendy night spot, Claw.

Join us each week as Rob Hunter takes a look at new DVD releases and gives his highly unqualified opinion as to which titles are worth BUYing, which are better off as RENTals, and which should be AVOIDed at all costs. And remember, these listings and category placements are meant as informational conversation starters only. But you can still tell Hunter how wrong he is in the comment section below. This week sees several good releases, but only one worth buying (and I’m just as surprised as you that it’s an Adult Swim title). But there’s plenty worth a Rental for folks who don’t love foul-mouthed stop-motion comedy, including Date Night, Tapped, Death At a Funeral, Under the Mountain, The Good Heart, and more. See all of this week’s relevant DVD releases after the jump…

As predicted, it was a rather abysmal weekend at the box office. After being edged out slightly last weekend by newcomer Kick-Ass, the Dreamworks Animation pic How to Train Your Dragon returned to the top of the charts with a vengeance this weekend, slicing up both The Losers and the J-Lo led rom-com The Back-Up Plan.

Well, when I said 3-D would fall from the top spot at the box office I once again spoke too soon. How to Train Your Dragon has apparently won what proved to be yet another weekend photo-finish.

Welcome to another week of The Reject Report, where we are anticipating strong showings by two new wide-release movies at the box office: KIck-Ass and Death at a Funeral.

This week, on a very special episode of Reject Radio, Rob Hunter and I delve deep into the pressing questions facing the Catholic Church Movie-Making Industry.

We had a sense that this was going to be a very tight “Clash” at the top of the box office — and indeed, this weekend’s box office result turned out to be too close to call.

Date Night works because it isn’t really trying too hard. That sounds terrible doesn’t it? But in a way that’s the brilliance of the movie. (Yeah, I’ll be hearing about that choice of words.) Why struggle to emulate the genius misadventures of After Hours when you can aim for the decidedly lighter but still entertaining Adventures In Babysitting?

This week, Fat Guy Kevin Carr woos the FSR audience on a Date Night before giving a grade to the high school rockers in The Runaways

It’s a light week for movies here in the Magical Studio in the Sky. That doesn’t stop the Fat Guys from being The Runaways and having a sweet Date Night.

We are in for a fairly light weekend as far as new movies are concerned, but the actual box office race promises to be no less interesting, because Clash of the Titans faces a stiff challenge from Date Night.

You can open your eyes now. 2009 is gone, and it’s not coming back. It’s time to move forward, onward and upward, and what better way to start than with the movies we’re most looking forward, onward and upward to?

20th Century Fox has released the first trailer for the upcoming action comedy (I think?) Date Night, from director Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum).

What has comedy icons Steve Carell and Tina Fey starring together for the first time with Night at the Museum director Shawn Levy at the helm?
