...revenue-generating power will come in September. The Beatles' albums haven't been touched since their original transfer to CD in 1987. Early word is that the remastered records sound great, though because of disagreements with Apple, they probably won't be available on iTunes, and the extras - mostly making-of documentaries - are a little underwhelming. They'll probably sell anyway, but if the Beatles and EMI are feeling just, they'll remember that the money they take from reissues is equal to the love they make them with...

...original was plenty entertaining, a portrait of two brilliant, conflicted men with something to prove: Nixon that he was a statesman, not a crook; Frost that he had the gravitas to bring a big man down. So how does that become a movie - one, moreover, that is essentially a making-of feature about a '70s TV show? Howard knew that to convey the particulars of what must seem like ancient history to younger viewers, he needed to move from the long-shot perspective of a play to the interviews' own visual style: alternating medium shots of Frost with blistering close...

Shine a Light begins as its own making-of documentary. In the preconcert planning, Scorsese asks for a playlist of the songs; he gets it just as the show starts. Mick Jagger frets that the moving cameras will distract the audience and that the lighting will throw too much heat on the stage. (As even the director realizes, "We cannot burn Mick Jagger.") During the concert, the singer shouts, as if to Scorsese, "These lights are burnin' up my ass!" He suffers for his art, but there's a film to be shot. Basically, Mick wants to give a great...

...fashioned persona, combined with his well-groomed beard and slavish devotion to his muse, Arwen (Liv Tyler), is more than enough to make up for another crappy holiday. Conveniently, LOTR: ROTK is available this week in a four-disc box set complete with over 50 minutes of footage not shown in theatres, which makes the film even longer than your grandpa’s World War II stories. And surely your mom will enjoy the hours of making-of featurettes included...

...DVDs were a long time coming because of negotiation over the supporting cast's payment. They make up for lost time with hours of features: an hour-long making-of documentary, cast interviews, deleted scenes, bloopers, stand-up outtakes and a chat with the real-life inspiration for Kramer. The "Notes About Nothing" feature subtitles episodes with all the trivia you could want and some you don't. (The nine months between the show's conception and its airing is the same amount of time it takes for a baby to be born. Thank...
