It's always exciting to check out the top 10 DVDs list to see what movies are making big waves all across the country. Some of the best selling DVDs are always a surprise, while others are ones that anybody could have guessed. At the same time, some of the most popular DVDs for sale stay at the top of the charts for months, while others last only a few days. So what are some of the newest and most notable top 10 DVDs recently?

There are actually a few documentaries amongst the best selling DVDs, which isn't always the case. The first is the Michael Jackson This is It documentary, which shows a ton of behind the scenes performance and practicing footage. Released shortly after his death, this documentary really captivated audiences around the world, so it's no surprise that that it's still on the best selling DVDs list.

Another documentary on the top 10 DVDs list is Food, Inc. It's yet another expose of the food industry, which isn't a new concept, but it still provides a lot of interesting and valuable information and sheds some light and some serious and worthwhile issues.

If you're looking for a little more action when you are evaluating the most popular DVDs that are available, then look no further than The Hurt Locker. It's a realistic look at the war in Iraq and it could be a big award winner when the Oscars roll around. For some comedy with your action, consider checking out either Zombieland or Inglourious Basterds, both of which are enjoying long stays amongst the top 10 DVDs for sale.

As of right now though, the movie that stands alone at the top of the best selling DVDs list is one that isn't even released yet! That's right, its pre-sale numbers are dwarfing the numbers for movies that are already out there. That movie is none other than Twilight New Moon, the second edition in the Twilight Saga (with plenty more to follow, no doubt).

Rounding out the rest of the top 10 DVDs list are some kids movies such as Up and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, both of which can be enjoyed by the entire family however. So if you want to add some new DVDs to your collection and you're unsure of what to purchase, consider any of these great best selling DVDs. There's something for all kind of interests and tastes with the current most popular DVDs for sale collection, and it's a list that's always changing.
