GOSSIP GIRL: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON


On DVD August 18, 2009

Just in Time for the Season Three Premiere on The CW

The sophomore season of one of television’s hottest properties graduates to DVD when Warner Home Video releases Gossip Girl: The Complete Second Season on August 18, 2009. Developed for television by Josh Schwartz (Chuck, The O.C.) and Stephanie Savage (The O.C.), Gossip Girl stars Blake Lively (New York, I Love You), Leighton Meester (Entourage), Penn Badgley (Forever Strong), Chace Crawford (The Haunting of Molly Hartley), Taylor Momsen (We Were Soldiers), Ed Westwick (Children of Men), Jessica Szohr (What About Brian), with Kelly Rutherford (Melrose Place) and Matthew Settle (Brothers & Sisters).

Families and reputations are destroyed and made; so are fortunes. And even the strongest friendships are tested. In this sizzling season two, you never know what’s next for Serena, Blair, Dan, Nate, Jenny, Chuck and Vanessa. Good thing Gossip Girl is always there to provide us with the latest, juiciest info!

Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment Proudly Announces the Highly-Anticipated Hi-Def Debut of Walt Disney�s Beloved Animated Classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

An Exciting Industry First: Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack -- October 6, 2009 -- 7 Weeks Before Standard Definition DVD Release November 24

Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment (WDSHE) proudly announces the highly-anticipated, October 6 high definition debut of the most-acclaimed animated movie ever made, Walt Disney�s original classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Making history again with its exciting debut, the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs� Blu-ray bow marks the first time Disney Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack (2 Blu-ray discs + DVD) has ever been released, followed seven weeks later with the release of a Deluxe 2-Disc Classic standard definition DVD on November 24. The Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs� Blu-ray edition will undoubtedly represent the quintessential way to experience this landmark film.

"We are thrilled that the consumer has clearly recognized the value in our Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack releases and will have another opportunity to maximize their viewing options in October with Snow White," Bob Chapek, President of Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, said. "With today's technological breakthroughs found in Blu-ray, we are confident that this version of Snow White will easily become the reference point for high definition home entertainment libraries and family collections all over the world."

Perfectly timed for holiday gift-giving and available for a limited time only, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs� historic high definition release will include a spectacular assortment of all new bonus features. A magical tale filled with laughter and excitement, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is the jewel in Disney�s cinematic crown.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs has been unavailable in any form, since 2001. The film earned a 1939 honorary Academy Award� for �significant screen innovation which has charmed millions, and pioneered a great new entertainment field." And now, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Blu-ray becomes the ultimate home entertainment experience with state-of-the-art picture restoration and a pristine 7.1 Digital Theater System Hi-Def Surround Sound.

About Platinum Combo Packs (Blu-ray + DVD in a single package):

To provide consumers with unprecedented quality, value and portability of their favorite Disney classics, in 2008 WDSHE pioneered the Combo Pack � Blu-ray Disc(s) plus a DVD in a single package. Current Disney Platinum Edition titles available as Combo Packs include Sleeping Beauty and Pinocchio.

About Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs:

Celebrated as an entertainment landmark for over 70 years, the first full-length animated film ever made, and still the �fairest of them all,� Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs� world premiere represented a major milestone for the world of animation, a giant leap forward for The Walt Disney Company. It is one of the most beloved and most watched films in history. As one of the first films ever to be designated for preservation by the Library of Congress, it has been entertaining movie-goers and critics alike for decades. It is also the first film ever to have a motion picture soundtrack, as well as the first film that uses music to advance the story. To date, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs has been released theatrically a total of nine times.

Synopsis:

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is the time-honored story of a beautiful princess whose blossoming beauty disturbs her stepmother the Queen. Each day the Queen asks a mysterious magic mirror the quintessential question: "mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all." As long as the mirror answers the Queen's name, all is well. However, when one day the mirror replies with Snow White�s name, the evil Queen begins her quest to kill the young girl, so she may once again be "the fairest of them all."

Snow White's escape from the evil Queen's plan leads her deep into the forest and to a small cottage where she meets, in one of the most famous scenes in motion picture history, the Seven Dwarfs. Once "off to work" they go, the wicked Queen persuades Snow White to take a bite of a poisonous apple that places a powerful sleeping curse on the young beauty. Heartbroken, the dwarfs make a glass coffin for their friend, because she is too beautiful to bury. Only when a handsome Prince -- who had previously fallen in love with Snow White -- finds her and kisses her, does she awaken, "to live happily ever after."

"The Secret Life of the American Teenager" Spills Even More As the Second Season Comes to DVD!

ABC Family's hit drama "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" has been winning over critics and fans as the new "must see" drama for families to watch together. The series is not afraid to explore what is really happening in High Schools today and is a great dialogue starter between parents and teens who might be having trouble communicating.

The series centers around a High School student named Amy who is shocked to learn that she is pregnant. During the second season, she is getting closer to her due date and the pending birth changes her relationships with just about everybody in her life. Who stands by her and who makes things worse? You'll have to pick up this second season set to find out!

The Season Two set features three discs that include all 12 episodes of the second season. Bonus features include the music video "Secret Life (You and Me)" performed by The Strange Familiar, the cast revealing "Character Secrets" and a behind the scenes look at the making of the show called "Cast Close-Up."

Speaking of the cast, the show features some relatively new faces (like Shailene Woodley as Amy) that are proving to deserve a long career in the acting world. The younger cast is paired with veteran favorites like Molly Ringwald as Amy's mother and John Schneider who has been crush-worthy since playing "Bo Duke" on "The Dukes of Hazzard" in the 80's and still earns the adjective today.

This timely series is available at most places where DVD's are sold or you can order online here:

A Disney Double Feature Brings Two Favorite Movies to One Great Disc!

This is one of Disney's best ideas since they decided to open theme parks! Why not take two of Disney Channel's fan's favorite TV movies and put them on one disc? Yes, now you can pick up "Hatching Pete" and "Dadnapped" at the same time. Do you know how many Disney Channel stars there are on one DVD? We'll give you the 411!

First up! Check out the trailer below!



"Hatching Pete" stars "Hannah Montana's" Mitchel Musso and "Cory in the House's" Jason Dolley. Mitchel plays a popular high school student named "Cleatis." The honor of being the high school's Mascot, a big burly chicken, has been a long-standing tradition in Cleatis' family. Only, Cleatis doesn't like being the mascot and is actually allergic to the suit, so he convinces his childhood friend Pete to takeover for him. Pete is shy by nature, but when he puts on the chicken suit, he's able to be funny, outgoing and manages to turn the chicken into a superstar. There's just one problem? everyone thinks that Cleatis is the one in the suit. Pete gets none of the credit.

Can Pete ever reveal the secret and get the accolades he so deserves? Does he want to be the center of attention? This is a great story about finding something that you are good at and making your dreams come true. You'll also see "Sonny With a Chance" star Tiffany Thornton as Cleatis' girlfriend.

As a bonus, there is a Backstage Disney look at "Hatching Pete" called "Unmasking the Mascot." This behind-the-scenes look features Jason and Mitchel as they show you what it was really like, putting on the suit and hitting the streets!

"Dadnapped" is full of Disney stars including "Hannah Montana's" Emily Osment, Jason Earles and Moises Arias. You'll also see "Wizards of Waverly Place" star David Henrie, and "Suite Life's" Phil Lewis. In this made-for-TV movie, Emily plays "Melissa Morris." Melissa's Dad is a mystery writer who is less interested in bonding with his daughter, and more interested in the fictional adventures of the characters he creates.

Check out clips from the film below!



When Melissa's Dad is kidnapped by a few over-zealous fans, it is up to Melissa to find him. Can she prove to her Dad that heroes exist in real-life? Be ready for some crazy antics and adventures in this fun, family film.

Who Says You Can't go Home Again? The Second Season of "October Road" Journeys to DVD!

In the first season of "October Road," viewers were introduced to Nick Garrett, a man who had left his small hometown ten years earlier. During his absence, the writer penned a somewhat fictionalized book based on his friends and the love of his life. Much to everyone's surprise, the book became a bestseller. This feat was not appreciated by Nick's former friends and fellow citizen's of Knight's Ridge, MA, as it painted them in a not-so-pretty light.

It's no surprise that when Nick returned home, it was a not-so-happy reunion. Over the course of the first season, some friends found forgiveness while others still carried a grudge. The second season dives further into the complicated relationships of Nick and his friends and Hannah, the love of his life. All thirteen episodes arrive on DVD on May 5.

The collection also features a wrap up filmed exclusively for the DVD that solves many of the shows plaguing questions like who is the real father of Hannah's son Sam? Other bonus features on the disc include a blooper section and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the show with the cast as your tour guides.

This is a sweet series that is likely to mirror the relationships in your life. You can find it at most places where DVD's are sold or you can have it delivered straight to your door by ordering it here: October Road: The Complete Second Season

The Wait is Over! "Bolt" Arrives on DVD and Blu-Ray!

Movie-goers of all ages loved this tale about a superstar dog named Bolt who appeared on a popular television show about a dog with super powers. Poor Bolt didn't know that all of the action was really just Hollywood illusions. He thought everything made up for the show was real.

It's a rude awakening for Bolt when he finds himself accidently separated from Penny, his "person" who is his co-star and owner. To make matters worse, he lands on the other side of the country in New York and must find his way home. This proves to be especially difficult when he learns that he doesn't really have super powers. He's just an ordinary dog.

Bolt encounters some help along the way from some unlikely allies. A jaded cat named Mittens proves to be a big asset in surviving out in the real world and a hamster named Rhino (who is Bolt's biggest fan) offers all of the "support" he can muster. Sometimes that might mean getting Bolt into more trouble instead of less. Somewhere on the journey Bolt discovers that you're never really ordinary when somebody loves you.

"Bolt" features some of Hollywood's finest actors as the voices of its characters. John Travolta (of Grease and HairSpray fame) is "Bolt," while the super-talented Miley Cyrus (Hannah Montana) lends her instrument to "Penny." The two have an amazing duet on the movie soundtrack called "I Thought I Lost You."

Here's a little preview of the movie for you!



A special combo-pack will be available on Sunday, March 22, two days before the standard DVD will be released on the 24th. The combo-pack features a Blu-Ray version of the movie, a DVD, and a digital file copy of the movie to meet all of your viewing needs.

Bonus materials on the special combo pack include an interactive game called "Bolt's Be Awesome Mission," a making-of featurette, the "I Thought I Lost You," music video and a special behind-the-scenes look at the recording of the song. Fans will also see how the actors recorded the voices of the beloved characters, deleted scenes and more!

Want a sneak peak of the bonus material? Check out the clips below!

A Q&A With Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus is the star of a long-running television show and films, a recording artist and an accomplished stage entertainer. Now, the 16-year-old Cyrus is adding another credit to her resume. She stars in Walt Disney Animation Studios' latest project, BOLT, as Penny, a young girl with her own action-adventure show that she shares with her best friend-her dog named Bolt. But off-screen, Penny isn't allowed to enjoy time with the pup, because that would spoil the illusion painstaking created and maintained by the director and crew...Bolt believes he actually possesses the special effects-driven super powers that save Penny on a weekly basis. Cyrus recently took a break from her dizzying schedule to speak to us about BOLT.

Q: You're an actress and a performer. In animation, we only get to hear your voice. What was it like just relying on your voice?

MILEY CYRUS: Ever since I was little, people would always make jokes about my low voice. But they also complimented me on it- 'it's so different, it's so low.' But still, in school, people would make fun of it. But now, I think it's so cool that you don't have to have the picture-perfect, girly voice to do an animated film. I think it's great for kids with different voices to know that they could do something like this.


Q: How many dogs do you have? It comes across in your voice when your character is playing with Bolt.

MILEY CYRUS: I have six. You could tell? You could hear the baby voice? 'Come on, boy, c'mon Bolt!' Everyone was laughing when I was doing that part-they thought it was the greatest thing that I was speaking to Bolt like he was real. Yeah, I have six dogs, and I love 'em!


Q: When your fans and friends come see BOLT, what sort of message do you think they'll get?

MILEY CYRUS: There are certain movies you go and see, and then after, you wanna go home and talk to your best friend and tell her that you really love her. I hope on this one, people will want to go home and love on their dog. I hope that they realize, one, that you love your pets and know what great friends they can be. And two, that no matter what you do for a living, realize that that can go away in a second... it's people, like Penny or your best friend, that matter.


Q: What was the process of making this animated film like for you? How long did it take?

MILEY CYRUS: I recorded it in about five sessions, so it was pretty quick. That was great. I loved going in there in my sweats- that was my favorite part. 'All right, I'm a mess, let's roll it, let's get it done!' Then I'd go home and take a shower!


Q: What was it like, working with the directors?

MILEY CYRUS: I worked mostly one-on-one with Chris [Williams]. It was great, working that way, having the director right there to tell me what was needed. That really made things easier... and fun, too.


Q: But if you're recording sporadically, you have to remember what you were doing the last time, what your character was feeling... did that come easily to you?

MILEY CYRUS: Yeah, it was something that came easily. The only thing that was hard is that I'm really strict with myself - I want everything to be perfect, if I'm going to do it. I had to realize that this wasn't me on-camera, I wasn't animating and that I didn't get to use my hands or anything. It was hard not to be able to use my body to get across what I was trying to do. I thought that was a little frustrating.


Q: How is your character of Penny compared to you? How are you different, how are you alike?

MILEY CYRUS: Penny is a little hard core- I love the opening scene, that is my favorite. Everyone was always asking me what my favorite scene was, and I'd say, 'I love it when she comes in with her hair allchopped off, and her Doc Marten boots and she's riding her skateboard.' I think that's so cool, something that I've never been able to do. I've always kind of wanted to be that girl. And I love how vulnerable she gets when she loses Bolt. So she shows that that's just a person.


Q: Tell me the set-up of the film.

MILEY CYRUS: I think it's a wonderful film, it's really well done. It's about Bolt, a dog, who thinks he has all of these super powers because he's on a television show. He comes to realize that what makes him special isn't all of these things that he uses to catch the bad guys, to fight them off, but that it's Penny - she's the one who gives him his strength and confidence. When he's not with her, he becomes vulnerable, and not as confident.

Who is Samantha on Samantha Who? She Wishes She Knew!

ABC can boast one of the few breakouts hits of last season with the incredibly funny series called �Samantha Who?.� �Samantha Newly�s� life is changed forever when a car accident leaves her in an eight day coma. She awakes to find that she has amnesia and remembers nothing from her life prior to the accident. In her case, this is probably a good thing considering she wasn�t that nice of a person.

Though her parents, ex-boyfriend, and two (yes she only had two) friends try their best to help her remember, Samantha is forging ahead with the present and future, while trying to fill in the blanks from her past. Putting the pieces together lands Sam and company into some awkward and hysterical situations.

Christina Applegate who made a lasting impression on television viewers as the wild, dim-witted teenager �Kelly Bundy� on �Married With Children� has returned home to television and makes this character believable and fun to watch. Rounding out the cast with other TV vets such as Jean Smart (�Designing Women�) and Barry Watson (�7th Heaven�) makes �Samantha Who?� a show worthy of your time investment.

The first season of the series is now available on DVD and you can laugh out loud with the rest of the show�s viewers. The set also includes deleted scenes and bloopers.

Preview a couple of the funny moments below!







You can pick up the first season at most retail outlets or you can order it online here�
Samantha Who?: The Complete First Season

Be sure to watch brand new episodes of "Samantha Who?" Monday nights at 9:30PM on ABC (right after "Dancing With The Stars") beginning October 13!

CHUCK: The Complete First Season

Looks can be deceiving, so if you run into Chuck Bartowski while shopping for appliances at your local Buy More (think Best Buy), don't automatically assume he's just your average, computer geek, punching a time clock for the discount and then heading home to his parent's house to play video games (technically, he lives with his sister). No, thanks to his former college roommate who just happens to work undercover for the CIA, Chuck now solely possesses important government information, which is lodged in his brain. Against his better judgment he must go on top secret missions with his beautiful protector Sarah, and the somewhat harsh agent John Casey, all the while maintaining his normal existence so no one uncovers his secret.

The show is well-casted starring Zachary Levi as Chuck, Yvonne Strahovski as Sarah and Adam Baldwin as Casey. Though the premise is a stretch, the show manages to make it extremely believable with great plots and heart-warming moments between characters.

This set includes the pilot, plus thirteen additional episodes. Bonus features include a behind the scenes look at casting the show, a gag reel and a talk with a few of the stars and creators.

The DVD hits shelves on September 16 in time for the second season premiere on NBC (September 28), or you can order it here: Chuck: The Complete First Season

Gossip Girl: The Complete First Season

It's no secret that one of the most talked about shows of last season was the CW's "Gossip Girl." It made overnight stars out of its brilliant cast Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Taylor Momsen, Penn Badgely, Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick. Parents were outraged over its racy content and no-holds-barred look at Manhattan's richest teens. Young adults and even a slightly older crowd couldn't get enough of the backstabbing bonding that makes the show so enjoyable to watch. If this show doesn't make you appreciate your circle of friends, nothing will.

The show is based on the best-selling books by Cecily von Ziegesar and follows the lives of six main characters (and their equally messed up parents). The first season sets up a world where best friends struggle to rule the school that they attend and find the love of their lives. Viewers would think that having an unlimited amount of money would make life easier, but it just compounds already complicated problems. In the age of technology where gossip spreads faster than Wildfire, it takes all of each character's energy to stay ahead of the game.

Now you can enjoy every juicy moment over and over again or experience the pop culture phenomenon for the very first time as "Gossip Girl: The Complete First Season" comes to DVD. The pilot plus 17 additional episodes are together in this set for easy viewing. Bonus features include behind-the-scenes looks at the making of the show, interviews with cast members, music videos, a blooper reel, and a downloadable audio book of the original novel Gossip Girl: A Novel, read by Christina Ricci.

You can find this set at most DVD retail outlets after August 19 or you can order it here: Gossip Girl: The Complete First Season

Tune into the CW on September 1 for the premiere of the second season of this new hit!

"Stop-Loss" Hits Close to Home

Twenty-somethings across the nation probably never dreamed that one of the most reflective movies of their life would be a war movie, but "Stop-loss" is just that. Unfortunately, the film is a close-to-home depiction of the sacrifices soldiers have to make to fight for our freedom and the consequences of disrupting families and lives when they are deployed.

With his tour of duty in Iraq finally over, Sgt. Brandon King (Ryan Phillippe) is eager to return to the life that was waiting for him in Texas. Problems arise when the Army plans to deploy Brandon again involuntarily. He is adamant about not going back but the situation causes tension between his family, friends and fellow soldiers. Questions about honor, integrity, loyalty to your country and basic rights are raised with no easy answers to find.

A stellar cast makes this an unforgettable story as does the direction of Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don't Cry). The DVD boasts several bonus features including a "Making Of" featurette, commentary by Kimberly and her co-writer, deleted scenes and a look at a "Day in Boot Camp" as the actors get in character.
