New This Week – Don’t be no jive turkey edition

Posted on

Spooks, crooks, and cooks

 

Turkey day is upon us. Good for friends, family, football, and food. Not so good for our large-bodied fowl friends. (Deep thought of the day – the sound we attribute to turkeys, gobble, is also the name of the action we have for eating them. #mindblown)

 

But just because you need to play the perfect host and prepare a perfect meal for a houseful of hungry people (no pressure), it doesn’t need to be a stressful holiday. Especially when you can keep everyone entertained (and out of your hair) with Vudu!

 

Watch American Assassin on Vudu today! #pewpew

 

Create a diversion (classic clandestine tactic pro-tip) with the action flick American Assassin. Watch Michael Keaton hang up his Vulture wings and open up an assassin school for spooks, so that new recruit Dylan O’Brien can light it up.

 

Despicable Me is available now on Vudu! Bananas, we know.

 

Or if the little ones are running amok, let them go bananas with Despicable Me 3. It’s got a nice family theme with Gru discovering a long lost twin brother, Dru – not to mention everyone’s favorite Minions.

 

Get wined and dined on The Trip to Spain, now available on Vudu

 

And if you’ve got too many cooks in the kitchen, get them focused on other food matters with The Trip to Spain. Watch comedians Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon check out breathtaking locales and to-die-for cuisine while on a hilarious culinary road trip through Spain.

 

Are we seriously not doing "phrasing" anymore?

 

We’ve even got several TV season bundles for binging, while you’re binging. Choose the vintage that pairs best with your menu: American Horror Story (S1-6), Archer (S1-8), The Americans (S1-5), and Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Complete series).

 

Or go anti-Thanksgiving for free with the horror classics ThanksKilling and ThanksKilling 3, showing now on Movies On Us.

Extra gravy

 

All the sugar from the pumpkin pie got you jittery? Could be your Spidey-sense tingling for the Spider-man: Homecoming Limited Edition Gift Box, exclusively at Walmart. Yes, it’s limited edition. Meaning, there aren’t that many. Meaning, head over to Walmart.com to pre-order yours now for $34.96 with free shipping (ships Dec 5th from Walmart).

 

This Spider-man: Homecoming Limited Edition Box Set is Amazing!

 

It’s got a Blu-ray and DVD combo pack with digital HD copy, an exclusive Funko POP vinyl figure, a Classic Spider-man Comic Covers book, two pairs of Spider-man socks, and a collectible enamel pin. You can check out an unboxing here.

 

New movies not in theaters

 

Channel a hipster (I saw that movie before it was a movie) and watch these movies before their theatrical release. How? Because we’re just extra.

 

Get criminal with Hangman and watch Al Pachino and Karl Urban (damn it Jim, this time I’m not a doctor) chase down a notoriously vicious serial killer with ties to Pachino’s past.

 

Watch Crooked House before it's in theaters! How? That's an Agatha Christie worthy mystery...

 

Or get classically criminal with Crooked House. This film adaptation of one of Agatha Christie’s most twisted tales is packed with suspense and stars – including Glen Close, Christina Hendricks, and Gillian Anderson.

 

New rentals. No turkeys.

 

Rent The Hitman's Bodyguard today on Vudu. It's triple-a rated executive laughs.

 

Watch Birth of the Dragon, a story inspired by the battle between Bruce Lee and Shaolin Monk Wong Jack Man. Get between a hitman and a triple-a rated executive protection agent as they go head-to-head in the comedy action hit, The Hitman’s Bodyguard. Or be visually amazed by Luc Besson’s (The Fifth Element, Taken, and Lucy) Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.

 

Happy Thanksgiving Vudu fans!
