After getting off to a so-so start, the new year should get a boost from a few high-profile new releases, led by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment’s Moneyball.

The Brad Pitt starrer based on the famous book about sabermetrics should find itself atop the sales and rental charts its first week in stores.

Also receiving a lot of retail attention among the Jan. 10 releases is HBO’s Boardwalk Empire: The Complete First Season, though it may not move as many units because it's a pricier TV boxed set.
