Wait, since when did Universal have the rights to release the Victini pair on DVD?
*looks it up*
Due out on 9th April. Cool.
Shame it's the worst Pokémon movie.

THe..."Power of ideals" or the "courage of truth" ... I don't... those aren't good sentence maked. I mean really now, "courage of truth" the "Power of ideals"? That's just nonsense, it's like saying the "evil of badness" or something, plus aren't those both good things? Why would choosing between them be hard? Ash's life seems to have got a lot easier since I stopped watching...
To explain:
In the story of Black and White, Reshiram is the "Dragon of Truth" while Zekrom is the "Dragon of Ideals".
The legend in the games is that Reshiram and Zekrom were once one single dragon. Two brothers founded the Unova region, but eventually the difference in their ideologies got the better of them - one wanted to seek the truth, while the other wanted to seek the ideal. This caused the original dragon to split into Reshiram and Zekrom. In
Pokémon Black and White Versions, N seeks:
The truths of Pokémon inside Poké Balls. The ideals of how Trainers should be. And a future where Pokémon have become perfect
The movie tells a similar version to that story (just minus the dragon splitting up; in the movie they were separate to begin with) and without N - instead we have Damon, who wants to use Victini's power to return life to his people's homeland. In the Zekrom movie, Zekrom chooses Ash because of the power of his ideal - the promise he made to Victini to allow it to leave the castle (where a barrier prevents it from leaving) and to take it to the beach. I haven't seen the Reshiram movie yet, so I can't be sure as to why Reshiram chooses Ash, but I imagine it could do with the catastrophic truth about the consequences of Damon's plan.
Truth and Ideal are two completely different things - to choose truth would be to just find out what something is like. To choose ideal would be to change that truth into well, your ideal.
