It's Carol here letting you know what's new on DVD.

Wow, I cannot believe how many great movies have been released in the last few weeks! Check these out!!!

Is this "economy" getting you down? Think about this… A night at home with a couple of movies from Video Magic, some homemade hamburgers, your favorite ice cold beverage, and the whole evening only set you back about $20! Try going to the theater and out to dinner for that!!!

As always, I would like to say Thank you for renting your movies at Video Magic. Remember when you rent from Video Magic, you are supporting you very own community. The owners of the company and all our employees live and work right here. We really appreciate your business. When you support local business you are helping the whole community. Local businesses such as Video Magic pay property taxes, sales taxes, business taxes, payroll taxes, etc. which funds local schools, roads, etc. When you buy or rent online or from those "red" machines, your money leaves our community.

Have a wonderful week.

Your friend at Video Magic,

Trivia Answer 

Answer To Trivia

Baltimore, Maryland was the birthplace to director Barry Levinson on Apr. 6, 1942. His films Diner, Tin Men, Avalon, and Liberty Heights were all set in Charm City.

Levinson also co-created a film production company named (what else?) Baltimore Pictures. The filmmaker is also a minority owner of the MLB team the Baltimore Orioles. Needless to say, Barry kinda likes the city. (Incidentally, fellow Baltimore filmmaker John Waters also sets many of his movies there.)

Levinson's latest is not set in Baltimore. Instead, it's set in Hollywood. (Some of the scenes were shot in Connecticut where he now resides.) Robert De Niro plays a movie producer with everything going against him -- including Bruce Willis (playing himself) who refuses to shave his bushy beard for a role. The satirical comedy is now on DVD and Blu-ray. Watch it today.
