All right, we’ve got lots of odd and ends to report announcement-wise today…

First, Paramount Home Entertainment has set The Guilt Trip for Blu-ray Combo and DVD release on 4/30.  Extras will include an interview with Barbra Streisand and Seth Rogan, a gag reel, deleted and alternate scenes and 4 featurettes (Barbra’s World, Guilt Trip: Real Mother of a Road Trip, In The Driver’s Seat and Not Really a Road Trip Movie).

Warner Home Video has set Maverick: The Complete Second Season for DVD only release on 4/23 (SRP $39.98).  The 6-disc set will include all 26 episodes.  Warner will also release LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu – Season Two on DVD on 3/5.

Lionsgate has set Abducted: The Carlina White Story for DVD release on 3/5.  Counting Cars: Season 1 will follow on DVD only on 4/16, along with The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia on Blu-ray and DVD.  Finally, Assassins Run will arrive on DVD from Lionsgate on 4/23.

Well Go USA Entertainment has set director Jean-Marc Mineo’s Bangkok Revenge for Blu-ray and DVD release on 3/27.

TLA Releasing has Sagat and Molly’s Girl coming on DVD only on 3/12.

Artsploitation Films has announced the acquisition of Horror Stories, Memory of the Dead and Wither for theatrical and DVD release in 2013.  Street dates are TBA.

Shout! Factory has announced the Scandinavian noir-thriller ID:A for release on DVD only on 5/7.  Shout! has also set the animated Kaijudo: Rise of the Dual Masters – Dragonstrike for DVD release on 4/30.  And the company also has Quincy M.E.: Season 5 coming on DVD on 3/19 as well.

Finally, Danger After Dark will release Death Penalty.com/Death Penalty.com: A New Beginning on DVD on 3/12.

Also today, given all of the TV promotional shorts and spots that Disney is currently running for Lincoln, one would expect it to be announced shortly after the Oscar broadcast on 2/24, probably for release in April.  Note that it’s set to be a Disney (Touchstone) release here in the States and a Fox release overseas.

Here’s a look at the Blu-ray cover artwork for Paramount’s The Guilt Trip, Warner Archive’s The Hudsucker Proxy (due to ship on 2/16) and Universal’s Hyde Park on Hudson (due 4/9)…
