This week we debuted a new feature or two. We covered everything from the latest television news to what you should see at the movies this weekend. In short, just another day at the office for The Bonus View. You're one-stop blog for everything relating to high-def entertainment.
Blu-ray News
Along with Josh's extensive weekly release list of Blu-ray titles hitting retail stores everywhere, we debuted a new feature called Off the Shelf. Aaron Peck thought that revisiting his Blu-ray collection would be fun. So, come along as we bust out movies that have been sitting on our shelves for months or years. This week Aaron remembers how funny 'Easy A' was and how great Emma Stone is in it.
Theatrical News
Along with his Weekend Box Office and Weekend Movies update Luke Hickman reviewed the surprisingly good vampire movie 'Fright Night' that may have snuck into theaters under everyone's radar. E also provided another wonderful Trailer Park post, where he discussed the trailers for 'Red Tails,' 'Tower Heist,' 'Battleship,' and 'The Ides of March.'

Special Features
This week on the Weekend Roundtable the collective writers at The Bonus View discussed which actors in Hollywood were their favorite character actors.
