Fresh Fodder: New DVD Releases - 07/10/07

We've been hearing a lot of buzz around "The Last Mimzy," and after watching the trailer, we've got to say we're kind of stoked to see it now (were we the only ones that didn't even see this come through theaters?). It has a very childhood-recalling "E.T." Spielbergian feel that's very attractive.

"The Astronaut Farmer," on the other hand, we're not so sure about, but it's in the queue anyway due to Billy Bob.

As always, leave your mini-review in the comments!
