Blu-ray Releases for September 23, 2008

Paramount offers up the highlight of the week with The Godfather Collection boxset, which includes a newly remastered and meticulously restored version of Francis Ford Coppola's epic gangster trilogy with an extra disc chock full of bonus material.

Warner delivers Curtis Hanson's highly regarded and award-winning modern film noir L.A. Confidential as well as the recent comedy film Run Fatboy Run starring Simon Pegg. New Line is releasing the 2001 Johnny Depp vehicle Blow along with the romantic comedy based on the hit HBO series, Sex and the City: The Movie

DreamWorks presents a duo of computer animated comedies, Madagascar and Shrek the Third, and Universal premieres the 2008 screwball sports comedy Leatherheads romantically pairing George Clooney and Renée Zellweger.

Flying somewhat under the radar, Fox gives us the steamy crime thriller Deception featuring Hugh Jackman and Ewan McGregor, while Sony presents the unique live performance art/musical Cirque du Soleil: Corteo.

Rounding out this week's release schedule are a pair of Washington D.C.-themed documentaries from Smithsonian Networks America's Greatest Monuments: Washington D.C. and Stories from the Vaults: Season 1, another immersive musical audio package from Surround Records The Way to Paradise: Music Experience in 3-D Sound Reality, and the Australian children's television program, Animalia: Welcome to the Kingdom, from PorchLight Entertainment.
