Mojo: Interactive Calendar of Motion Picture and DVD Release Dates
One of our favorite sites (ResourceShelf created by and for librarians, primarily) tipped us off to a site named Box Office Mojo, whose parent company is IMDb, International Movie Data Base. The publication was founded in 1999 by movie analyst Brandon Gray, the same year SeniorWomen.com was created.
Here's ResourceShelf's brief critique for *Mojo's features: "Impressive, interesting, and useful."

Editor's Note: If you're subscribed to Netflix or Blockbuster, it's easier to know now when to expect release of a DVD and to add it to your SAVE Netflix or Blockbuster list. For instance,
The Social Network (Two-Disc Collector's Edition) is being released on Tuesday, January 11. This, in all probability, is timed for release after the Academy Award nominations are announced.
And it's not just for new movies/DVDs; older movies are noted, such as Blade Runner which is being released in Blu-ray in February, and
Justified: The Complete First Season. We're discovering series that we were not aware of previously or we had skipped. We have found that we would rather watch TV series in multiple episodes at one time rather than waiting for each week's episode, either live or recorded.
