With The Hunger Games breaking box office records on its opening weekend, it’s just a matter of time before the film hits Blu-ray, DVD and digital delivery services like Netflix, Amazon Prime and Blockbuster. It’s big movie releases like this that are changing the home entertainment landscape, in tandem with new smartphones, tablets and game consoles and portables.

Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment has sold more than 1.2 million units of the action-fantasy film Immortals in its first week. Nearly half of those sales were for Blu-ray versions of the game and 10% were for the 3D Blu-ray combo pack. Actor Henry Cavill (Man of Steel) talks about the 3D movie in the exclusive video interview below.

Twihards were in the mood for love before Valentine’s Day. Summit Entertainment, a Lionsgate company, has continued to make a mint off Stephanie Meyer’s last book in the supernatural love triangle franchise. It was a very smart decision to split the final film into two parts, as the home entertainment release is picking up right where the theatrical release left off. THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN – PART 1 sold an estimated 3.2 million DVD and Blu-ray units during its first weekend of release. Actress Ashley Greene talks about the movie in this exclusive video interview below.

Every Tuesday, Sony brings its PlayStation faithful new content, add-ons for your favorite games, Themes and avatars for your PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable. Again another standard week of PSN goods you can get, but for the most part the main draw are going to be demos. Twisted Metal is finally going to hit store shelves and the fans of  the series will be eager to get their hands on the multiplayer demo now available.  

We're as much of a fan of James Bond as the next guy who likes his Q gadgets, but we can't help but think what a bummer it is that some of the best films in the series, like Goldeneye and (dare we argue) Octopussy aren't available yet on Blu-Ray format, the way they were meant to be seen.  But MGM rectified that this week at the Consumer Electronics Show when it made an announcement at Panasonic's booth regarding a special collector's edition set, due for release this year.

LAS VEGAS -- The Digital Entertainment Content Ecosystem (DECE), a cross-industry consortium dedicated to creating a consumer-friendly open market for digital content distribution, held a press conference at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2012) to outline the expansion of UltraViolet. Following the launch of an initial 19 UltraViolet-enabled titles, more than 750,000 households have registered with UltraViolet to create and start using personal digital libraries.

Although many people have upgraded to Blu-ray Discs, the majority of Americans still view movies on DVD. While the overall home entertainment market is still hurting as more people rent than buy movies, blockbuster event movies still entice purchases. Warner Home Video had a very good year with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I and II dominating the chart. Disney has a trio of kid-friendly movies, including Cars 2, which is featured in the exclusive video interview with Owen Wilson and Eddie Izzard below. And it's worth noting that every movie, save for Bridesmaids, had a videogame tie-in for gamers to further explore these worlds.

James Cameron made Avatar to take advantage of 3D technology, but the Oscar-winning filmmaker also made sure that the film would play well in 2D. And although he originally said the experience was designed for a large screen, Avatar has been a hit on mobile devices. The movie comes pre-installed on the T-Mobile Samsung Virbant Galaxy S. Now Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment and Lightstorm Entertainment are bringing a first-of-its-kind interactive version of the film called Avatar iTunes Extras Special Edition beginning on Tuesday, December 20. The director talks about the movie in the video below from the 3D Entertainment Summit.

VIZ Media, the largest distributor and licensor of anime and manga in North America, will release a new anime feature-length film, Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva, on DVD November 8th. The movie is based on the highly popular Professor Layton series of video games for the Nintendo DS. The DVD features both subtitled and dubbed English dialogue options.

Strong sales of Thor and the Star Wars saga on Blu-ray Disc (BD) prompted a 156 percent surge in U.S. sales of the format in the release week ending September 18, possibly pointing to brighter days ahead for the overall market for movies on disc, accordingto the new IHS report “Star Wars Shines in its BD Debut,” from information and analysis provider IHS.

After driving to the top of the box office, Pixar’s Cars 2 comes home on Blu-ray Combo Pack, Blu-ray 3D, Movie Download and DVD on November 1, 2011. Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Pixar Animation Studios, the high octane in-home release invites families and fans of all ages to come along on a journey around the world with the #1 animated film of the year and introduces an exclusive all-new animated short “Air Mater,” featuring the fan favorite character spinning his tales in an exciting adventure high above Radiator Springs. The must-own animated release also includes fascinating commentary from award-winning director John Lasseter and “Hawaiian Vacation,” the delightful animated short that accompanied the film in theatres. The release should give Disney Interactive Studios' original Cars 2 games, including the 3D PS3 title, an extra turbo boost at retail for Christmas.

Everyone seems to be coming out with some form of Collector's Edition for their games these days, and Bethesda is no exception.  The company has announced its latest packaging for Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, due for release on November 11th.  But unlike most gimmicky collector's edition packages out there, this one actually has some merit -- in the form of a bad-ass 12" dragon statue.
