This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies - Peter Jackson finishes out both the three-film Hobbit Saga and the six film Middle-earth Saga with a 2.5 hour picture that's at least 60% battle scenes; Forbidden Hollywood Volume 8 - four more worthy and surprising pre-Code thrillers to tease us with incipient immorality and questionable subject matter, not to mention risqué situations and suggestive dialogue; and Goodbye to Language - Jean-Luc Godard is back again with a theoretical treatise in the form of a near random assemblage of sort-of scenes that sort-of tell a story, but really add up to more academic questioning and intellectual position arguments Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.

Some pretty cool discs are being released this week. Check out these new titles: The Thin Blue Line: Criterion Collection [review] - a landmark documentary that not only changed the genre as a whole...but more importantly, saved a man's life in the process; Convicts [review] - this film features an excellent performance by Robert Duvall as a senile plantation owner in 1902 Texas; and Gates of Heaven / Vernon, Florida: Criterion Collection [review] - Errol Morris' first two films explore absurd human behavior in a uniquely humane and respectful way.
