The summer blockbuster season is here! “Media Services at the Movies” will look at what big movie is coming out this week, then offer a few movies like it from our collection.<\/i><\/p>\n

Phew! We already promoted the super-great robot beat-em-up Pacific Rim<\/i> last week, so this time around, it’s time for a breather. There are a number of good movies you might not have watched yet, like This is the End<\/i>, Much Ado About Nothing<\/i>, World War Z<\/i>, The Heat<\/i>, and Despicable Me 2<\/i>. Take a break in the middle of the week and go see a movie that you haven’t considered!<\/p>\n

(Alternatively, you can watch Sharknado<\/i><\/a> when it premieres on Thursday.) <\/p>\n

In honor of clearing our backlog for a week, the Media Services staff each picked one out of our favorite older summer movies. You’ve probably seen them, but there’s nothing like a good classic. If you don’t feel like watching what’s in theaters, give these a try!<\/p>\n

Apollo 13<\/a> \u2013 HU DVD 529
Jurassic Park<\/a> \u2013 HU DVD 4901
Animal House<\/a> \u2013 HU DVD 4913
Big Trouble in Little China<\/a> \u2013 HU DVD 6518\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
