Pick of the Week
Transformers: Dark of the Moon
It's an onslaught of explosions, conspiracy theories and Autobot-versus-Decepticon mayhem, with Shia LaBeouf leading a cast of human heroes against an all-out alien robot invasion. When the Autobots learn of a Cybertronian spacecraft hidden on the moon, it's a race against the Decepticons to reach it and learn its secrets -- secrets that threaten to ignite a war so big that the Transformers alone will not be able to save the planet. This all-new 4-disc Ultimate Edition includes nearly four hours of behind-the-scens footage, cast and crew interviews and more.
This week also marks the release of the 7-Disc Limited Collector's Edition Blu-ray Trilogy with all three Transformers movies, more than ten hours of bonus material and a plaque of movie images signed by director Michael Bay.

Jamie Foxx presents an inspirational documentary about pride, honor, and the power of a deep groove. In the 1970s, charismatic band leader Conrad "Prof" Johnson took an inner-city Houston high school's mediocre jazz band and turned them into the Kashmere Stage Band, a legendary funk powerhouse. Now, 35 years later, his students plan to reunite and pay a tribute to their now 92-year-old mentor. Some of these past students have not played their instruments in decades, yet they are determined to take the stage to show Johnson and the world that they have still got it.
