Short Cuts: Cars, Xwords, Xbox and More!
Among today's DVD releases:
Wordplay, a look at
New York Times crossword creator Will Shortz (
see related Q&A) and the annual puzzle tournament held in my hometown of Stamford, Connecticut, and Disney's
Cars, aka the theme for my sons' birthday party this coming weekend.... Xbox 360 owners will be able to "unlock" a thus-far untapped part of the console and download movies and TV shows - including
Batman Forever,
The Nine and
CSI - starting Nov. 22....
Jay Leno,
Matthew McConaughey,
Regis Philbin and
Bob Costas are among the big names lending their voices to new releases in the
Team Baby DVD series, which is likened by some to "
Baby Einstein for the sports-minded set."
