NASA INVITES STUDENTS TO NAME NEW MARS ROVER

WASHINGTON -- NASA is looking for the right stuff, or in this case, the right name for the next Mars rover. NASA, in cooperation with Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures' movie WALL-E from Pixar Animation Studios, will conduct a naming contest for its car-sized Mars Science Laboratory rover that is scheduled for launch in 2009.

The contest begins Tuesday, Nov. 18, and is open to students 5 to 18 years old who attend a U.S. school and are enrolled in the current academic year. To enter the contest, students will submit essays explaining why their suggested name for the rover should be chosen. Essays must be received by Jan. 25, 2009. In March 2009, the public will have an opportunity to rank nine finalist names via the Internet as additional input for judges to consider during the selection process. NASA will announce the winning rover name in April 2009.

Disney will provide prizes to students submitting winning essays, including a trip to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., where the rover is under construction. The grand prize winner will have an opportunity to place a signature on the spacecraft and take part in the history of space exploration.

"Mars exploration has always captured the public imagination," said Mark Dahl, program executive for the Mars Science Laboratory at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "This contest will expand our ability to inspire students' interest in science and give the public a chance to participate in NASA's next expedition to Mars."

Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures in Burbank, Calif., will make it possible for WALL-E, the name of its animated robotic hero and summer 2008 movie, to appear in online content inviting students to participate in the naming contest. The online WALL-E content will provide young viewers with a current connection to the human-robotic partnership that is transforming discovery and exploration. The contest coincides with Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment's release of WALL-E on DVD and Blu-ray. The naming contest partnership is part of a Space Act Agreement between NASA and Disney designed to use the appeal of WALL-E in educational and public outreach efforts.

"All of us at Disney are delighted to be working with NASA in its educational and public outreach efforts to teach schoolchildren about space exploration, robot technology and the universe in which they live," said Mark Zoradi, president of Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Group. "WALL-E is one of the most lovable and entertaining characters that Pixar has ever created, and he is the perfect spokes-robot for this program."

The Mars Science Laboratory rover will be larger and more capable than any craft previously sent to land there. It will check whether the environment in a carefully selected landing region ever has been favorable for supporting microbial life. The rover will search for minerals that formed in the presence of water and look for several chemical building blocks of life.

"We are now in a phase when we're building and testing the rover before its journey to Mars," said John Klein, deputy project manager for the Mars Science Laboratory at JPL. "As the rover comes together and begins to take shape, the whole team can't wait to call it by name."

Additional assignments include imaging its surroundings in high definition, analyzing rocks with a high-powered laser beam, inspecting rocks and soil with a six-foot robotic arm, and cooking and sniffing rock powder delivered from a hammering drill to investigate what minerals are in Martian rocks.

FIRST SPACESHIP ON VENUS
In the 1960 sci-fi thriller First Spaceship On Venus, a mysterious magnetic spool found during a construction project is discovered to have originated from Venus. A rocket expedition to the mysterious cloudy planet is launched to discover the origin of the spool and the alien race that created it.

LASERBLAST
In 1978�s Laserblast, young actor Kim Milford plays an ostracized teenager who stumbles upon the remains of murdered mutated alien in the California desert. Along with the alien�s remains, a high-tech laser gun and power source are accidentally left behind by the extraterrestrial murderers. While examining the equipment, the teen inadvertently mutates himself with a laserblast, and embarks upon a murderous rampage.

WEREWOLF
1996 horror flick Werewolf begins with an archeological dig in an Arizona quarry. The Native Americans at the dig site recognize an unearthed skeleton as the remains of a werewolf, yet the team of archeologists are skeptical. When a dig assistant becomes infected and transforms into a werewolf, the ambitious team leader begins a horrific experiment, infecting the oblivious townspeople with the werewolf virus.

FUTURE WAR
In 1997�s action-packed Future War, a race of evil cyborgs kidnap humans from Earth�s future to use as slaves, and take dinosaurs from the past to use as trackers. A determined slave, the �Runaway�, escapes and makes his way to present-day Los Angeles. There he must fend off the cyborgs and their trackers, the police, and the government, befriended by a prostitute-turned-nun who runs a halfway house.

The Mystery Science Theater 3000 series was created by Joel Hodgson and produced by Best Brains, Inc. After a year on KTMA TV in Minneapolis, its national broadcast life began in 1989 on the Comedy Channel (later to become Comedy Central), where it ran for seven seasons. The show�s final three seasons aired on the Sci-Fi Channel. The premise of the series features a hapless man who is trapped by mad scientists on a satellite in space and forced to watch old B-movies of questionable worth. To keep sane, he�s built two robot sidekicks, and together they do a running commentary on the films, affectionately mocking their flaws with inspired wisecracks and acting as a demented movie theater peanut gallery. Series creator Hodgson originally played the stranded man, Joel Robinson. When he left in 1993, series head writer Mike Nelson replaced him as the new B-movie victim Mike Nelson, and continued in the role for the rest of the show�s run. The format proved to be popular. During its eleven years and 198 episodes (including one feature film), MST3K attained a loyal fan base and critical acclaim. The series won a Peabody Award in 1993, and was nominated for writing Emmys� in 1994 and 1995.

Lionsgate's Critically-Acclaimed Western 3:10 TO YUMA Lassos Number One Spot on DVD Charts

Title Debuts In First Place on DVD and High Definition Charts With 3 Million Units Sold in the United States and Canada

Lionsgate's DVD release strategy continued to generate successful results as the Company's second high-profile release of the month of January, 3:10 TO YUMA, stampeded over the competition, debuting at number one among this week's new DVD releases. The Blu-ray release of 3:10 TO YUMA also debuted at number one and marked one of the 10 best Blu-ray debuts to date.

The action-packed Western from LIONSGATE, the premier independent filmed entertainment studio, finished the week with 3 million units sold. The film outsold both the DVD and Blu-ray debuts of films with two to three times its box office and continued to reflect Lionsgate's proficiency in achieving the highest theatrical box office to DVD conversion rate of any studio in the industry. Lionsgate placed two films in the top three positions on this week's DVD charts -- the dominance of 3:10 TO YUMA follows on the heels of last week's DVD release of Lionsgate's Jet Li/Jason Statham action-thriller WAR, which debuted at #2 last week and remains in the top three this week. In addition, the Company's third major DVD release of the month, the Dane Cook/Jessica Alba comedy GOOD LUCK, CHUCK, hit stores on Tuesday and is off to a very strong start. Its full first week results will be reported next week.

The success of WAR and 3:10 TO YUMA marks the initial salvo in Lionsgate's campaign to again dominate the post-holiday period, duplicating the success of the Company's record-breaking January at the beginning of 2007. The studio has four more major releases slated this month, including the DVD and Blu-ray releases of GOOD LUCK CHUCK this week and the fourth installment in the highly successful SAW horror franchise, SAW IV, on January 22. On January 29, Lionsgate will release the gripping drama TRADE, starring Kevin Kline, and the Sundance winner RIGHT AT YOUR DOOR. Lionsgate will release Tyler Perry's box office hit WHY DID I GET MARRIED? two weeks later, on February 12.

Directed by James Mangold (WALK THE LINE) and featuring a stellar cast including Academy Award(R) winner Russell Crowe, Christian Bale, Ben Foster and acting legend Peter Fonda, 3:10 TO YUMA also opened number one at the box office for Lionsgate during its theatrical run. The film was one of the most critically-acclaimed releases of 2007 and has received a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture as well as Best Original Score awarded to renowned composer Marco Beltrami by the Broadcast Film Critics Association. Critics declared the movie "a taut, terrific action film" (TIME), "A masterpiece from start to finish" (Access Hollywood), "an instant classic" (Fox News), "masterful" (Maxim Magazine), "an absolutely brilliant western" (Larry King) and "A triumph of style, action and codes of honor among men" (At the Movies with Ebert & Roeper).

"With its star power and critical acclaim, 3:10 TO YUMA is just the type of release we envisioned as being a success in our "fifth quarter," leading up to the awards season," said Ron Schwartz, Lionsgate Home Entertainment General Manager and Executive Vice President. "Holding major releases like WAR, 3:10 TO YUMA, GOOD LUCK CHUCK and SAW IV until after the holidays has given us a strong reputation with retailers and consumers for delivering a diverse, high-profile slate of titles for buyers to purchase with their holiday gift cards."

3:10 TO YUMA SYNOPSIS/EXTRA FEATURES

In Arizona in the late 1800s, infamous outlaw Ben Wade (Crowe) and his vicious gang of thieves and murderers have plagued the Southern Railroad. When Wade is captured, Civil War veteran Dan Evans (Bale), struggling to survive on his drought-plagued ranch, volunteers to deliver him alive to the "3:10 TO YUMA," a train that will take the killer to prison. During the grueling expedition, Evans and Wade, each from very different worlds, begin to earn each other's respect. However, with Wade's posse on their trail, the mission soon becomes a violent, impossible journey toward each man's destiny.

The DVD features a "making of" documentary, featurettes, deleted scenes and audio commentary with director James Mangold. The Blu-ray disc is loaded with five featurettes, a "making of documentary," plus "A Conversation with Elmore Leonard," deleted scenes and audio commentary with director Mangold. Also included on the Blu-ray disc are interactive feature length extras including "Inside Yuma," a "picture in picture" exploration of the creation of the film and "Historical Timeline of the West," a navigation through some of the most significant historical events in the evolving history of the West.

What Time is It? It's Time to Win "High School Musical 2: The Extended Edition!"

It's finally here! The most-watched cable television event of all time has finally come to DVD! Guess what? There's more on this DVD than was ever shown on television!




The gang from East High is back in this sequel to the wildly popular "High School Musical." Summer is here and everyone is making their summer plans. Sharpay and Ryan plan to spend their summer at the family's Country Club so Sharpay schemes to get Troy a job there. Her plan is to spend more time with him and convince him to sing with her in the club's annual talent show. Troy messes up the plan when he manages to get all the other Wildcats jobs there too. Troy's plan was to be able to spend more time with Gabriella both at work and after hours.

Things really get messy when Troy starts being distracted but the lure of money and power that Sharpay's family is bestowing on him. He starts to let the attention go to his head and begins to distance himself from his friends who are working hard at their summer jobs. Will Troy lose his friends forever or realize his mistakes before it's too late?



Of course, one of the best parts of this movie is the music and there is plenty of that. In fact, the newly released DVD has an extra musical number called "Humuhumunukunukua'pua'a." Viewers saw Sharpay and Troy rehearse this number during the televised version but only on the DVD can they see the production number in its full glory.

CARLA GUGINO INTERVIEW FOR RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN

What attracted you to Race To Witch Mountain?

For starters, I was a big fan of the original films. I had a motor home for many years as a kid, so I always related to the children in the original movie - although I didn't really relate to the alien part of their life. I thought the script was really good. Plus, I'm a big fan of [director] Andy Fickman, so when we sat down to talk about it, I decided we had to work together after only three minutes of conversation. I really wanted to do it - especially as I am a huge fan of Dwayne Johnson's, too. It was a really natural fit for me and I fell in love with the character, so I had to be involved.

What can you tell us about your character in the movie?

I play an astrophysicist named Dr. Alex Friedman. She's been discredited from several universities because she has decided that there is enough hard data to prove that there is alien life. That wasn't a popular notion for the respectable university she used to work for, so she's relegated to lecturing at a UFO convention in Las Vegas.

How did she end up lecturing at conventions?

Well, she's hoping that she'll get some support down there, but all the people want to talk about is crop circles and kooky theories. She's pretty much having one of the worst days of her life when Dwayne's character - Jack, a cab driver who drove her from Las Vegas airport to the UFO convention - walks in and says, "Hey, these two kids are aliens." She's thinks, 'Great, now I'm being made fun of.' But then she comes to realize that they are in fact aliens and it's the most exciting thing that's ever happened to her. It's the thing she's been waiting for her entire life and then she's swept away to help on the journey to save the world - or two worlds in this case.

You've played a lot of intelligent, scientific women in the past…

I've played an astrophysicist, a neurosurgeon, a rocket scientist and a contingency analyst - but what I love about playing Alex is that she is also a total goofball. I like the fact that when we meet her, she has gone from lecturing at Harvard and Stanford to speaking at a UFO convention in Las Vegas, but only because she truly believes in her information and findings. She believes in life on other planets, even if that makes her a pariah of sorts. I don't think she sees aliens as little green men - or even as two children - but she does believe there is life out there in the universe.

How different is this character to the scientific character you played in the television series, Threshold?

There's a totally different vibe to Alex. When I sat down with the director, he admitted he was a big fan of Threshold, but he wasn't looking for the same character. Tonally, this movie is very different and my Threshold character, Molly, was much more serious than Alex. I would say Alex is almost like Molly gone berserk. I think they could definitely be sisters, but they were extremely different to play. Much more so than I thought they would be.

Is Alex a bit of a nerd?

That was one of the things I really loved about playing that character - the fact that she is smart and she's got her act together to some extent, but when she's confronted with something that blows her mind, she becomes a kid. I definitely relate to the nerd in her.

How much of a nerd are you?

Well, I'm an incredibly gullible person. I'm so bad that when I admitted this to a friend of mine, they said, "You know 'gullible' isn't even in the dictionary, don't you?" And I said, "Really?" As soon as I said it, I realized what was happening. I realized I was being even more gullible than usual - but that's how bad I am.

How much fun did you have shooting Race To Witch Mountain?

I had the time of my life with this film. Making a good movie is a lot of hard work, but it's easier when the creative connections are immediate - and that's what happened with this movie. It's a movie that appeals to all ages and there are some great characters involved. As soon as I read the script I knew there would be some great comedy in putting this discredited astrophysicist and an ex-con cab driver together to explore their two different perspectives on the world.

What was it like to work with Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson?

Working with Dwayne was a joy. There was no ego involved for each of us, so we could just settle down and have fun with the shoot. Our two characters are very different, but it's true when people say opposites attract. There was a lot of great energy to play between the two characters because of their differences and we had a lot of fun with it.

What made Andy Fickman the ideal director for Race To Witch Mountain?

When I first met Andy, I realized he was such a wonderful collaborator and creative force. He was already extremely well versed in UFO culture and the paranormal, which gave me a strong point from which to build my character. He was perfect.

What did you think of Fickman's approach to using more practical special effects instead of computer-generated special effects?

With this movie in particular, there's something great about the authenticity and the fact that it's a little bit messier. It's done really, really well. You can see that in the fight scenes, which are amazing and much more realistic because he went for a different approach.

You've had roles in Spy Kids, Sin City, Watchmen and now Race To Witch Mountain… What is the appeal of these sci-fi movies?

With Watchmen, my character was someone who starts at 25 years old and ages to 67 with full prosthetics. I remember thinking, 'Are you kidding?' I jumped at the chance to be involved because it sounded so wonderful. You know what? It's funny that I've ended up in two graphic novel - or comic book - movies like Sin City and Watchmen, but it hasn't been intentional. I just fell in love with each project.

Are you a big sci-fi fan?

It's funny because I was never a graphic novel or comic book person. For me, it's about a good story and good characters. When I signed up for Sin City, I had already worked with Robert Rodriguez on Spy Kids and I was really up for the challenge of doing a completely different character. I think it always comes down to how I relate to the character, who I'm working with and the vision of the director because that is ultimately what you're serving.

Did you do any alien research for Race To Witch Mountain?

The director was a great source of information on UFO culture, so he was a lot of help. It was also a lot of fun to meet the people during the UFO convention scene because many of them were real UFO enthusiasts.

Were there some colorful characters there?

It was very interesting to say the least! One person said to me that they are going to reveal on television the fact that we have found an actual alien. I said to him, "Wow, have you found it yet?" And he replied, "I can't speak about that right now, but I will tell you next year." I was like, "Okay… Great!" I hope he appears on television soon as I'd love to see his proof. I guess we'll just have to wait and see…



A Q and A With Dwayne Johnson

What's Race To Witch Mountain about?

Race To Witch Mountain is a huge action adventure that is going to blow people away. I play a guy called Jack Bruno, who is a Las Vegas cab driver and the story is about two kids who get inside his cab. They take him on the journey of a lifetime!

Sounds exciting! What happens?

Well, the two kids aren't quite what they seem. We soon learn that they are running away from the government, as well as an alien monster. We're all thrown into an amazing journey within the first 10 minutes of the film!

Cool! So what made you sign on for the movie?

I wanted to make a big family action adventure and this seemed perfect. There are some great car chases, as well as combat scenes, comedy and loads of amazing action. I'm really excited about it.

Are you a fan of action movies?

I love action movies, which is why I wanted to be part of one. I wanted to make sure that this movie was up there with the best of them. I honestly think it is.

What's your favorite action film?

There are two recent action movies that really stand out for me. The last Bourne movie is one of them and the last Bond movie is the other. I like the way they're shot in a very energetic and real way.

What makes the action scenes stand out in Race To Witch Mountain?

For starters, there's an amazing alien monster for me to fight. This thing kicks butt!

Eek! Does this mean you hurt yourself shooting the film?

I'll tell you one thing for sure: When that alien punches me in the face, I flew across the room. Not only did it hurt - because I'm hitting walls for real - but it's also great action. You're going to love it when you see it.

Do you get to do many stunts in the movie?

I love stunts. Thankfully, I was allowed to do everything I wanted to do in Race To Witch Mountain, which made me very happy. What did I do? I did all of the great car chase sequences and I did all of the fighting scenes with the soldiers and the monster alien. It was a lot of fun.

We've got to ask… Do you believe in aliens?

Of course I do. It would be extremely arrogant to think we were alone in this universe. I've always been fascinated by aliens and UFOs - and I learned a lot about them while making this movie.

What did you learn about them?

The director, Andy Fickman, is a wealth of knowledge on aliens and UFOs. I learned so much about them by spending four months with him. He had so many videos and books on the subject that it was like he took us all on a course.

Talking of learning… What were you like in school?

I had a wild and vivid imagination at school. I always wanted to laugh and have fun, so I ended up being the class clown. I was a bit of a joker.

Did you do well at school?

I think I learned the value of applying myself later on in life. In high school, I was a decent student. I was a C-grade student, so I guess I was very average. When I got to college, it took me a couple of years to adjust - and that's when I started to apply myself to studying.

Did you want to be an actor when you were at school?

I wasn't interested in acting, but I was always interested in entertaining. When I was 8 years old, I loved Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and Star Wars. I loved his characters because they were cool and quick-witted.

So how did you catch the acting bug?

I was never in a school play, so it wasn't at school. I did a lot of athletics at school, which took up all my time. I got into sports and became a professional [American] football player. After that, I became a wrestler, which is what led me into acting.

What other actors did you look up to when you were a child?

As well as Harrison Ford, I loved people like Elvis and Richard Pryor. These were the people I used to look up to and the people I thought I could be one day.

Do you have any advice for youngsters who want to become stars?

I'd say that there's no substitute for hard work. You don't have to be the smartest, the brightest or the most brilliant person in the room - but you do have to work your butt off. There's no substitute for that.

Selena Gomez enchants teens every day as wizard "Alex Russo" on "Wizards of Waverly Place."

Carter Mason (Gomez) is your typical teenager living in a small town in Louisiana. The fact that her Dad is a special agent in an international Princess Protection Program is just a normal, every day thing for Carter until her Dad literally brings his work home with him.



Rosalinda Marie Montoya Flore (Lovato) is a member of the Royal Family of the small country of Costa Luna. When a military take-over threatens her safety, Mr. Mason and his colleagues maneuver to whisk her to safety until the country is no longer under attack.

The safest place for Rosalinda seems to be where Mr. Mason can keep a close eye on her and where better than his own home to do that? Unfortunately, that means moving a total stranger into his own daughter's bedroom while the family pretends that she is a visiting cousin.

Just Admit it… You Can't Wait to See "Confessions of a Shopaholic" on DVD! Well, Join the Club!

Somehow, Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher)missed one key economic lesson while growing up. She never quite got the grasp of how to live within her means. As long as there was space on her credit card or another credit card to be granted, she thought it was okay to buy more clothes, more shoes, and a lot of other things that she didn't really need. So begins the tale of the Touchstone Home Entertainment release of "Confessions of a Shopaholic."

When Rebecca loses a job that she didn't really care for, she sets her sights on working at her dream job, a fashion magazine called Alette. Though there are no openings at Alette at the moment, there is a job at Successful Savings, a financial magazine under the same parent company umbrella. Seeing this as a way in, Rebecca manages to become employed by writing financial advice. Talk about irony.

Of course her boss, successful entrepreneur Luke Brandon (Hugh Dancy), is a total hottie and somewhere along the way, the two start to become close. Rebecca manages to keep her secret financial woes to herself for a while, but eventually, all secrets come to light. Can Rebecca advise herself out of this mess? Will Luke ever talk to her again once he knows the truth? We confess that we got caught up in this charming story based on the book by Sophie Kinsella and we think you will too!

Bonus features on the disc include bloopers, deleted scenes, and the music video "Stuck With Each Other" by Shontelle featuring Akon. You can find the DVD at most places where DVD's are sold or you can order here:

Confessions of a Shopaholic


A Question and Answer Session with Hugh Dancy ("Luke Brandon")


Photo Provided by: Touchstone Pictures

Question: How tough was it to do the dance sequence in "Confessions of a Shopaholic"?

Hugh Dancy: We didn't spend ages over it. It was one night of filming it. It was quite technical. But we spent the night before choreographing the dance. Initially it was meant to be fairly straightforward and it developed because we were making each other laugh a lot.

Question: Before you made his movie how aware had you been of the Shopaholic novels?

Hugh Dancy: It was peripheral. I had seen posters and people reading the books on the tube. I had never read them. Like a lot of people I had a pretty preconceived idea about what 'chick lit' was and that it was not for me. PJ Hogan, the director, gave me the first three books and then I had to completely re-write my preconceptions. I realized anything that sells that many books is a good book. It is well written, it is not a mistake. What I love most about the books is the inner monologue that Rebecca has and while it is about shopping what I recognized in it was the denial, the comedy in the lies that Rebecca tells to herself. We have all been there-- we can all laugh at our own expense.

Question: Have you ever made a ridiculous purchase?

Hugh Dancy: If I have then it was not so bad that it stuck with me. I err on the side of caution. A good thing is having a balanced view of money. I have had to learn that it is occasionally ok to spend a little bit more than you meant to. If you spend your life being under budget then it is not so great. However I do collect hands. The odder the better. It started on a film set when there was a straight set of wooden hands, which I liberated. So it grew from there. For most people hands would be a ridiculous thing to buy but it is not for me. The weirdest hand I have is a fibre glass big hand that was a symbol for some group.

Question: How do you feel about being called the new Hugh Grant?

Hugh Dancy: I get it. It is a requirement to label people. But I don't object to it so much because I have come to realize that it bears no relation to reality. When it first happened, 10 years ago, it probably annoyed me more. But since then I have happily carried on having my career and doing my own thing.

Question: Is it true that you began your acting career inadvertently, when you were sent to the school theater as a punishment?

Hugh Dancy: "It is true, I was at boarding school and had been misbehaving and I was sent to study drama, to the theater at my school. I was sent under duress and never left, I loved it. To begin with I was just helping out with the sets, painting the walls, nailing things into the floor and doing odd jobs. I was sent there to keep out of trouble, but I never thought about acting before that at all. Then I discovered I liked the people doing drama far more than most of the other people at my school. I spent so much time there that eventually someone asked me to be in a play, it had nothing whatsoever to do with my acting ability. I found out that I loved acting and I am very glad it happened."

Question: In the film you have to play a straightforward guy. Is that a harder role to do?

Hugh Dancy: I think Isla has the hardest role in the movie. But yes there is a challenge to playing the straight man. Playing a basically good person can often be interesting because people are usually not so interested in them. So when you get one that is well written it tends to be unusual.

Question: Does the movie have appeal for males?

Hugh Dancy: Yes, I thought it was a movie that I would be interested in.

Question: Why have you made so many movies with Jerry Bruckheimer?

Hugh Dancy: You would have to ask Jerry because he is the one who calls you. I like and admire him. It is always an amazing experience working for him. His attention to detail is incomparable.

Question: Is it becoming a necessity for you to live in America?

Hugh Dancy: No, it is not. As it happens, I have been working in New York a lot during the last couple of years, my fiancée is a New Yorker. But I still have my home here in England.

Question: Had you known Isla Fisher?

Hugh Dancy: No I had never met her. She is high energy, funny, surprising. I really admire the way she has kept her life private. She works very hard.

Question: Luke and Rebecca are very different aren't they? How did you make the relationship believable?

Hugh Dancy: "I think that it is perfectly credible. We see quite quickly in the film that Becky is not just crazy; there is something very down to earth about her, something endearing, honest and appealing, even while she is making up her stories and getting into a mess. She is an unpretentious person and very charming. Luke is quite different from Becky. He is not remotely interested in clothes and shopping, he is in love with the world of finance, which is an area that she has a bit of a problem with. Luke is quite severe and strict, but he also has a sense of fun. When they get to know each other they do have a lot in common. You see very quickly that they are more suited to each other than you would initially think. Would I fall for someone as crazy as Becky? Yes. I have done it several times with no regrets."

Question: You have modeled for Burberry, doing a campaign for them, did that give you more awareness about fashion?

Hugh Dancy: I learned a lot when I did the Burberry campaign five years ago, I found that it was good fun. I spent a day sitting in front of a car wearing a nice suit, with the amazing photographer, Mario Testino taking my photograph; people pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for that kind of thing in charity auctions. So it was quite an honor and I can't complain. I appreciate a good suit that is comfortable and fits well, but fashion is not something that I spend much time worrying about on a day-to-day basis. "

Question: Can you speak Prada?

Hugh Dancy: No, I'm still on chapter one.

Question: What was the last thing you bought with a credit card?

Hugh Dancy: I took my friends to dinner. Good meals tend to be my extravagance.

Question: Playing journalists seems to be quite a popular career choice for actors. How much did you enjoy it and what kind of research did you do?

Hugh Dancy: I did visit Fortune magazine in New York and also the guy that does the Forbes 400 list. It was interesting to see the pace and the competitiveness and the deadlines. But more relevant to the guy I was playing was, I think, his commitment to the truth telling aspect. I guess I saw a little bit of that exhibited in those offices, but it was clearer in the script.

Question: Can you draw comparisons between the scale and the expense of a Hollywood movie compared to the kind of movies and TV material you started out on? Does it seem like anything goes in an industry this huge?

Hugh Dancy: Well, I think I've worked on movies and TV shows of all different scales where money felt like it was being spent unintelligently. And I've worked on very big movies, like this one, where the attention to detail is incredible. There's no sense that the door has been flung open wide and the cash was just flying out. But then I don't think we're necessarily in a position to answer that because we're obviously not the ones writing the checks. So, what it comes down to are just a few people in a room and the work that they're doing. So, it was myself, Isla Fisher, PJ Hogan, the director, and Jerry Bruckheimer, and that is true of a small TV show or a huge movie.

Quest ion: But what about in terms of the scale of the production?

Hugh Dancy: Oh yeah, it's different entirely. It's like a space launch. It's really how it feels sometimes. I've worked on a couple of other movies of Jerry's and particularly the larger, more action type movies... they feel like a small town. There's a fire engine, sometimes there's a crèche... I half expect there to be a church. It's a community.

Question: How was working with costume designer Patricia Fields on your wardrobe?

Hugh Dancy: I had the odd experience of working with Patricia Fields, who is obviously known for making women look fabulous and yet here we were trying to make me, a guy, and look kind of scruffy. I think that was probably relatively new to her. Jerry Bruckheimer is right when he says that she's collaborative and interested in character and how you feel. So, it was a very productive work experience.

Question: Do you have any money saving tips?

Hugh Dancy: Don't spend it! I know it sounds stupid but the essential truth of the books and the movie is really that - put the credit card back in the wallet, or cut it up!

Question: What are your shopping temptations?

Hugh Dancy: Mine are books. I will go into a book shop... that's the only shop I really like to browse in to kill time and will come away with too many.

Question: What are you doing next?

Hugh Dancy: I have a movie called "Adam", which will be coming out on an as yet unknown date later this year.

CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC is on Blu-ray and DVD June 23rd!

"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:

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!

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.

When his daughter Maya (Abigail Breslin) starts hounding him about how he met her mother, ad executive Will Hayes (Ryan Reynolds) turns the story into a guessing game. He tells Maya about three past relationships while she tries to figure out which woman ultimately turned into her Mom.

The possibilities include Will's first love, Emily (Elizabeth Banks), who he had dated in college, but grew apart from when he moved to New York City to work for Bill Clinton's presidential campaign. It was there he met April, the second potential candidate (played by Isla Fisher). She's more of a free spirit who loves to travel and read and sees Will as more of a friend. Then there is Summer (Rachel Weisz), a beautiful and smart writer who enjoys Will's passion for debate and academia.

Because the relationship with her mother isn't working out and the couple is divorcing, telling the story brings both Maya and Will great understanding about why the love didn't last. Maybe, just maybe, true love is still out there and both Maya and Will think they know who he should revisit.

The cast does a superb job of telling this cute story!

Disney Spellbinds us Again With "Enchanted!"

Our only question about "Enchanted" is� what took Disney so long to come up with this brilliant idea? The movie starts in classic Disney animated style as we meet "Giselle," who lives in the cartoon world of "Andalasia." Longing for a love of her own, "Giselle" is smitten when she meets "Prince Edward." The two decide instantly that this is true love and they should marry right away.

The only one not happy about their union is Edward's step-mother "Queen Narissa. " If Edward marries, Narissa will have to forfeit her crown to Edward and his bride. Narissa casts and spell and sends Giselle far, far away� to real life, modern day, New York City.

Giselle must navigate this new, live-action world on her own and quickly learn that "real" humans aren't always so nice. Lucky for her, she soon meets a charming, single Dad named Robert (played by Patrick Dempsey) and his daughter who agree to help her find her way home. They just have no clue as to how far away her home lies.

Prince Edward finds out that Giselle is missing and starts out to find her. He takes a resourceful chipmunk named "Pip" with him but they soon find out that while Pip can talk in "Andalasia," chipmunks don't talk in New York City. Narissa also sends her henchman, Nathaniel to guide Edward in the wrong direction.

Nothing can keep true love apart, so when Edward and Giselle are finally reunited, Narissa decides she must go to New York to stop the happy couple herself. (The amazing Susan Sarandon brings her to "real life")By this point, however, Giselle has been spending a lot of time with Robert and his daughter.

"Beowulf:" A Classic Story Becomes a Ground Breaking Movie

What started out as an epic poem has now been transformed into an extraordinary movie experience. "Beowulf" is the story of a kingdom that is being terrorized by an evil monster. A courageous warrior named "Beowulf" comes to the kingdom's aide but is swayed by the monster's mother (played by Angelina Jolie).

This version of the film used motion-capture technology like they used in "The Polar Express." It's an interesting way to combine real life with animation. It proves to be a suitable tool for bringing this particular story to the big screen. This is especially true during the amazing battle sequences that would have been difficult to stage with real actors fighting mythical creatures.

This film also "stars" Anthony Hopkins, Ray Winstone, Robin Wright Penn and John Malkovich. Bonus features including a making of featurette called "A Hero's Journey: The Making of Beowulf."

Nothing Much Stronger Than "Family Ties: The Third Season"

"Family Ties" first debuted in the '80's but through the ingenious invention of television on DVD, this beloved classic can be enjoyed any hour of any day. First the series got rave reviews for its amazing cast and humorous writing, but now is probably most remembered as the series that made Michael J. Fox a star.

The early reviews were right. Starring Meredith Baxter Birney, Michael Gross, Michael J. Fox, Justine Bateman and Tina Yothers as the Keaton family, millions of viewers tuned in each week to see what kind of trouble the kids or the parents were going to get in to and how the rest of the family was going to get them out of it. With the premise being parents from a "Hippie" background raising three very different children, there was constant clashing of opinions and values just like the audience's family.

Season Three brought the arrival of a new edition to the family. Baby Andy arrived just as Alex was starting college. Twenty four hilarious episodes make up this collection. Topics of the episodes show a range from incredibly serious (Alex working at a hotline where a caller is contemplating suicide) to just funny (Mallory getting locked in a basement with Alex's "nerdy" friend Skippy). Every episode however, provides plenty of laughs.

"Becoming Jane" Is a Beautiful Story About a Beautiful Story-Teller

Audiences have been reading Jane Austen's novels for over one hundred and fifty years now but who knew that her own life story could make such a beautiful movie? Now "Becoming Jane" has come to DVD and if you missed this one in the theaters, you should really add this well-made movie to your home video collection.

Anne Hathaway who charmed us in the "Princess Diaries" and went head to head with Meryl Streep in "The Devil Wears Prada" does an amazing job of bringing one our most beloved authors to life. The story takes us back to the late 1700's where women were supposed to be seen and not so much heard. It was especially restricting for Jane Austen, a bright twenty year old who loved to read and write.

Jane's life is complicated when she meets Tom Lefroy, (the amazingly talented James McAvoy) a cocky lawyer in training who initially dismisses her writing because he feels that she has no experiences to embellish on paper. After as much interaction between a man and a woman as the times would allow, the two fall in love.

The relationship does not sit well with Jane's family who want their daughter to marry the somewhat drab Mr. Wisley, a gentleman who stands to inherit a fortune and prime real estate. Jane's torn between following her heart or marrying for the sake of helping her family.

Austen fans will enjoy a glimpse into the life of the author and will recognize several characters and situations from her real life that found their way into her most popular novels. This is movie is a most see for the hopeless romantic in all of us.

Bonus features on the DVD include "Discovering the Real Jane Austen" (a look into the life of the author), deleted scenes, and audio commentary by a few of the filmmakers. It's available where most DVD's are sold or CLICK HERE TO ORDER!!!!

What Happens After Visiting Hours at General Hospital? Find Out During The "Night Shift."

"General Hospital" has been a television staple for over forty years and has created some of television's most memorable characters (think Luke and Laura). One of the best things about the shows is its ability to change with the times and continue to tell stories that satisfy fan's demands for storylines that are reflective of our modern, every day life. That's not to say that things don't get crazy in Port Charles and that element is definitely showcased in the first season of "General Hospital: Night Shift," which is now available on DVD.

"Night Shift" is produced by the same team that brings "GH" to the small screen every day and thirteen episodes of the series originally aired on SoapNet. Mixing favorite characters from the "GH" (Elizabeth, Robin, Maxie, Jason, etc.) with new faces (Jolene, Leo, Kelly, and more) proved to be a success and achieved the honor of being SoapNet's highest-rated original program to date.

Soap fans will enjoy getting caught up in the drama of who is seeing who, who is crushing on who, how are they going to deal with all these medical problems, and why is everyone fighting? It's just another night at General Hospital. As a bonus to those who pick up the DVD, you also get to take a look "Behind the Scenes" with a bonus featurette titled "On the Set at Night Shift."

Double the Fun in "Twitches Too!"

Your favorite Disney Channel twins, Tia and Tamera Mowry, (we loved them in "Sister, Sister") are back for a second installment of the Disney Channel Original Film, "Twitches." This one is called "Twitches Too" and the talented actresses reprise their roles as "Alex" and "Camryn," twins with special powers who were separated at birth and reunited 21 years later. The girls are still learning how to deal with their magical abilities and each other in this fun and spooky sequel.

The girls have set out to find their birth mother, a witch named Miranda but something doesn't want them to succeed. An evil presence is threatening the girls and their family and only when their powers are combined can they stop the evil force.

Ratatouille Moves From the Kitchen to Your TV!

By: Megan Jude

Pixar has definitely done it again!

Their newest DVD release, Ratatouille, is an animation force to be reckoned with. The dazzling techniques paired with vibrant colors allows for audiences to be taken on a wild, and sometimes heart wrenching, saga with a French rat trying to pursue his dreams.

Although it seems to be a children's movie at first glance, we all can quickly identify with Remy (voice by Patton Oswalt), who has larger than life dreams of becoming a French chef. Shot down by those around him and soon separated from his family, Remy takes on the challenge of doing whatever it takes to make his dream come true, even if that means hiding out in kitchens at night and taking advantage of an untalented French boy named Linguini (Lou Romano). This clever little movie will leave you with a stomachache by the end, from laughing too hard!

Ratatouille is, by far, the most inventive story in recent years. The film strives to give young and old audiences alike the motivation to never give up on your dreams, no matter how big, or small, you may be. Through the amazing visuals and over the top circumstances, Pixar has brought to life a movie that people (and rats!) of all ages can enjoy.



Bonus Features include a short film titled "Your Friend The Rat," deleted scenes from the movie, another PIXAR short film titled "Lifted," a conversation about food and film with film-maker Brad Bird and chef Thomas Keller, plus more surprises!

"My So Called Life" Gets Another Go Round on DVD!

Ever so often� a television show gets absolutely everything right and unfortunately, ABC didn't know what a jewel it had until it was too late. "My So Called Life" premiered in August of 1994 and featured a cast of unknown up and comers including the now famous actress, Clare Daines, and music/movie star Jared Leto.

"MSCL" followed the daily ins-and-outs of typical teen "Angela Chase" (Danes) as she navigated High School. Making new friends her parents didn't approve of and trying to get closer to bad boy "Jordan Catalano" were just two of the catalyst for Angela's life changing journey. Millions of teens watched the series (later it ran on MTV) and shouted "This is just like me!"

The shows brutally honest look at teen living might have scarred the more wholesome ABC network into pulling the plug on this series way too soon. Only 19 original episodes were filmed, leaving fans heartbroken.

Rejoicing now, longtime fans of the series and those who have heard about its greatness are rushing to stores to buy the series on DVD. The six-disc set includes one whole disc of nothing but bonus features. Go behind the scenes with cast and creators in the "My So Called Life Story." Watch a 1995 panel discussion on the series from the Museum of Television and Radio. Flip through a 40 page book dedicated to the series, complete with cast photos and an introduction by the shows creator. Watch an exclusive interview with Claire Danes. All that and lots, lots, more that you will just have to discover on the disc!

To get an idea of what you are missing� check out the following clips then go and tell your parents to add this to your Christmas list. Teenage drama never looked this good or hit so close to home!

Two Disney Channels Favorites Come to DVD!

The Disney Channel knows that fans can't get enough of their movies and series so they decided to put fan favorites out on DVD to be watched over and over again� any time and any place! Hitting the shelves right now are "Hannah Montana: Life's What You Make It" and "Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board."

"Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board" is an original Disney Channel movie that serves as a sequel to the hit movie "Johnny Tsunami." Returning as "Johnny," Brandon Baker finds himself faced with more challenges when his family returns to Hawaii for his grandfather's wedding. Though he is a champion in the surfing and snowboarding areas, the new sport is dirtboarding and Johnny never shies away from a challenge, even if it is a dangerous one.

Johnny learns a lot about sports, life, and himself in this crazy adventure that will have you rooting for the outsider. You just might see a little of yourself in this movie, even if you don't dirtboard either.

Bonus features on this disc will give viewers a chance to become stunt coordinators and see how the filmmakers captured all the action. Fans will also get excited about the music videos from the Jonas Brothers and T-squad.

Unless you have been living under a rock lately (or if there is no one under the age of 16 in your house), you have probably heard of "Hannah Montana." Miley Cyrus plays "Miley Stewart" a teenager who by day is your average, ordinary, High School student, but after school� she is Pop Super Star "Hannah Montana!" This hilarious look at life for this talented girl who knows what she wants to do as a career but doesn't want to give up her private family life has become one of the most successful programs in Disney history.

New to video is a compilation of episodes titled "Life's What You Make it." The four episodes on the disc include "Achy Jakey Heart: Parts One and Two," "I am Hannah, Hear Me Croak," and "I Want You To Want Me� to Go to Florida." It's in these episodes that Miley must decide if she wants to date fellow super star "Jake Ryan," and whether or not she should tell him that she is "Hannah Montana." She also learns a valuable lesson about putting family's feelings before her own when her Dad gets a great chance to revive his musical career. "Hannah Montana" is fun for the teens to watch but I have also heard grown adults laughing out loud when "Miley" and her friends get themselves into sticky situations.

This disc also has bonus features including a "Backstage Pass to the secrets of Hannah Montana" where Miley and the Cast talk secrets and secret keepers. It also includes the touching music video "Ready, Set, Don't Go," from Miley's onscreen and real life Dad, Billy Ray Cyrus.

These are two great DVD's that any teen would be lucky to find under their tree!

One of the most highly anticipated DVD releases of the year has finally hit the shelves! "Transformers" is ready to make audiences as excited in their own living room as they were while watching the blockbuster smash on the big screen earlier this year.

Some fans of the movie have been waiting for this story to make a big screen debut for 20 years as the show was once a cartoon (in the 80's) that featured Optimus Prime and his band of good guys battling Megatron and his evil Decepticons. The film version was a masterful blend of great story telling with unbelievable special effects that brought the Autobots to life in a way that only today's technology could achieve.

The film version starts with an invasion on Earth from the Decepticons who have come to the planet seeking pieces to a puzzle that could return all power to them and destroy Earth as we know it. The key to their search is Sam Witwicky, (brilliantly played by Shia LaBeouf) a not-so-popular teenager who is just trying to make enough money to buy a car. Sam unknowingly posses the information that the Autobots are searching for because he is in possession of artifacts that once belonged to his great grandfather, an Arctic explorer who unknowingly stumbled upon Megatron and learned valuable information regarding the Transformers battle between the two sides of Autobots.

When Sam buys his first car, he is actually buying an Autobot and when he uses the car to try to impress the girl of his dreams (the talented Megan Fox), the two are sucked into a wild, Earth saving adventure that leaves you breathless and wanting more.

The Deluxe Edition of the DVD is a two-disc set that features a lot of bonus material including a commentary by director, Michael Bay. The set also includes two extensive documentaries titled "Our World" and "Their War." The first showing how the human side of the movie was made (casting, training etc.) and the latter shows how special effects were used to bring the Transformers to life.

In anticipation of the release, Paramount Pictures Home Entertainment has collaborated with two different Web sites that are must visits for new and old fans. The first can be found at www.transformersmovie.com/suityourself. Here you can upload a photo of yourself and turn yourself into your favorite Transformer. The second site will amaze any fan when they receive a call from Optimus Prime! That's right - Optimus himself will give you or a friend a call. You can find that Web site at: http://optimus.transformersmovie.com.

This movie is a must-see for anyone who enjoys great movies. It's funny and sweet and action packed, has a great story, and all those elements that make movies the escape that they are supposed to be. There might be a little too much violence for the younger set but most people 12 or older will find this an exciting ride. Like the characters it showcases there is more to this film than meets the eye.

The First Season of "Ugly Betty" on DVD

Reviewed by: Susan J. Yeager

When last year's new fall season was announced, I poured over all the shows like I usually do and tried to figure out which ones that I should watch. Reasoning that I spent too much time watching television already, I was going to cut back a little. "Ugly Betty" caught my eye.

The set-up for the series sounded to me a lot like "The Devil Wears Prada." A girl who could care less about fashion is hired as an assistant to a mean boss and has to work on a daily basis in an environment full of perfect, pretty people. "Ugly Betty" takes it a step farther by having the lead character be somewhat less attractive (in terms of looks) than her co-workers.

I meant to watch the show. I really did. I even taped every episode. (How very "Betty like" of me to still be using VHS and not DVD or TIVO). Also "Betty" of me, I had no idea where all the tapes ended up and couldn't begin to watch them in order. At some point I realized� I think I was afraid to watch "Ugly Betty" because I was afraid I WAS "Ugly Betty."

Yet with the help of the great invention of television on DVD, the complete first season arrived to be reviewed. There it was, all in order, complete with bonus features, in one box. I had no excuses now. So I popped the first disc in.

When we first meet "Betty Suarez," she is just out of college and looking for her first real job. She lives at home with her loving father "Ignacio", her wild sister "Hilda," and her fashion and musical-loving, nephew "Justin." Betty is a dreamer and sees herself writing for a magazine someday. To get her foot in the door, she applies at Meade Publications. It's perfect timing because Meade owner and CEO "Bradford Meade" has just hired his partying, girl-chasing, son "Daniel" to run the company's super popular fashion magazine Mode. Hoping that this responsibility will help his son grow up, Bradford hires Betty to be Daniel's assistant. Just happy to be hired to work for such an amazing magazine, Betty is oblivious to the fact that she was only hired so Daniel wouldn't be tempted to chase after yet another assistant.

Within her first five minutes there, everyone can tell that Betty is the outsider. The people that work at Mode are a size 0 that must dress in the latest styles and Betty clearly looks different and has a different sense of style. However, the thing that really sets her apart is that most of her co-workers are self-centered, vicious, cruel individuals that will do anything to get ahead in the corporate world. By contrast, Betty is sensible, loving, has her priorities in order, and is a level headed thinker in the center of their self-imposed chaos.

The contrast makes for great television. "Ugly Betty" manages to create such evil characters that you love to watch the trouble they try to make. The show manages to balance that with characters that are so likable that you have to root for them� most especially Betty. She never comprises her ideals or her decency and who's moral compass seems to have direction for everyone who comes in contact with her.

The only problem that I had with having this show released to DVD is that it is completely addictive and it is almost impossible to get anything else accomplished because you just want to get back to the TV and get a "Betty" fix. The set also contains some great bonus items like scenes that were deleted from the shows that aired and a blooper real that is hysterical. And wait! There's more! The cast and crew also take you behind the scenes to show you what it takes to make each episode.

Buy it now and get caught up before the second season of the show premieres on ABC on September 27 at 8:00 PM. I can't believe we have to wait that long!

"Ugly Betty" has managed to take a light hearted look at an age-old problem. How will we ever get people to stop judging a book by its cover and look at the whole package? We give kudos to America Ferrera and the rest of the cast for fearlessly bringing these characters to life and getting the point across so beautifully.

I can't believe that I didn't jump on the "Betty" bandwagon sooner. Yes, like I suspected, I have a lot in common with the title character. Prior to watching the show, however, I just didn't realize how lucky I was to be a "Betty."

�Bridge to Terabithia� Now on DVD!
by: Susan J. Yeager

�Bridge to Terabithia� is now available on DVD, however, the timeless story of two children who create a whole new world has been leaving a lasting impression on readers for three decades.

The book was written by Katherine Paterson and was printed in 1977. A year later, it received the Newbery Medal (an honor given to outstanding Children�s literature). With such well developed characters going on such grand adventures, it seems only right that Disney would decide to bring it to the big screen and now make it available for every home.

When the story begins, the audience meets Jesse Aarons, an aspiring artist who doesn�t quite fit in home (he�s the only boy with four sisters) or school (he is often picked on by bullies). Lonely and with no one to talk too, he finds himself bonding with the new girl at school named Leslie.

Leslie is quite a storyteller and when the friends discover uninhabited woods, their imaginations turn the land into a magical place called �Terabithia.� In �Terabithia,� Leslie and Jesse can make the rules and the two start going there to discuss the problems that most kids face while growing up.

The story takes on a heavy subject matter that provides a good opportunity for parents to discuss life changing events with children. This is definitely a film that should be watched by the whole family and talked about afterwards.

Josh Hutcherson and AnnaSophia Robb brilliantly bring �Jesse� and �Leslie� to life in this film version and playing �Jesse�s� sister �May Belle,� young Bailee Madison steals almost every scene in which she is featured. The filmmakers do a great job creating a fantasy world and the real world in which two so called �outcasts� discover a rare friendship that the �cool� kids could only dream about.

Pick up a copy of this DVD and be prepared to be another person that is spellbound by the magic of �Terabithia.� The legacy of leaving a lasting impression will continue now with everyone who watches this film.

Ratatouille Moves From the Kitchen to Your TV!

By: Megan Jude

Pixar has definitely done it again!

Their newest DVD release, Ratatouille, is an animation force to be reckoned with. The dazzling techniques paired with vibrant colors allows for audiences to be taken on a wild, and sometimes heart wrenching, saga with a French rat trying to pursue his dreams.

Although it seems to be a children's movie at first glance, we all can quickly identify with Remy (voice by Patton Oswalt), who has larger than life dreams of becoming a French chef. Shot down by those around him and soon separated from his family, Remy takes on the challenge of doing whatever it takes to make his dream come true, even if that means hiding out in kitchens at night and taking advantage of an untalented French boy named Linguini (Lou Romano). This clever little movie will leave you with a stomachache by the end, from laughing too hard!

Ratatouille is, by far, the most inventive story in recent years. The film strives to give young and old audiences alike the motivation to never give up on your dreams, no matter how big, or small, you may be. Through the amazing visuals and over the top circumstances, Pixar has brought to life a movie that people (and rats!) of all ages can enjoy.



Bonus Features include a short film titled "Your Friend The Rat," deleted scenes from the movie, another PIXAR short film titled "Lifted," a conversation about food and film with film-maker Brad Bird and chef Thomas Keller, plus more surprises!

"My So Called Life" Gets Another Go Round on DVD!

Ever so often? a television show gets absolutely everything right and unfortunately, ABC didn't know what a jewel it had until it was too late. "My So Called Life" premiered in August of 1994 and featured a cast of unknown up and comers including the now famous actress, Clare Daines, and music/movie star Jared Leto.

"MSCL" followed the daily ins-and-outs of typical teen "Angela Chase" (Danes) as she navigated High School. Making new friends her parents didn't approve of and trying to get closer to bad boy "Jordan Catalano" were just two of the catalyst for Angela's life changing journey. Millions of teens watched the series (later it ran on MTV) and shouted "This is just like me!"

The shows brutally honest look at teen living might have scarred the more wholesome ABC network into pulling the plug on this series way too soon. Only 19 original episodes were filmed, leaving fans heartbroken.

Rejoicing now, longtime fans of the series and those who have heard about its greatness are rushing to stores to buy the series on DVD. The six-disc set includes one whole disc of nothing but bonus features. Go behind the scenes with cast and creators in the "My So Called Life Story." Watch a 1995 panel discussion on the series from the Museum of Television and Radio. Flip through a 40 page book dedicated to the series, complete with cast photos and an introduction by the shows creator. Watch an exclusive interview with Claire Danes. All that and lots, lots, more that you will just have to discover on the disc!

To get an idea of what you are missing? check out the following clips then go and tell your parents to add this to your Christmas list. Teenage drama never looked this good or hit so close to home!

Two Disney Channels Favorites Come to DVD!

The Disney Channel knows that fans can't get enough of their movies and series so they decided to put fan favorites out on DVD to be watched over and over again? any time and any place! Hitting the shelves right now are "Hannah Montana: Life's What You Make It" and "Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board."

"Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board" is an original Disney Channel movie that serves as a sequel to the hit movie "Johnny Tsunami." Returning as "Johnny," Brandon Baker finds himself faced with more challenges when his family returns to Hawaii for his grandfather's wedding. Though he is a champion in the surfing and snowboarding areas, the new sport is dirtboarding and Johnny never shies away from a challenge, even if it is a dangerous one.

Johnny learns a lot about sports, life, and himself in this crazy adventure that will have you rooting for the outsider. You just might see a little of yourself in this movie, even if you don't dirtboard either.

Bonus features on this disc will give viewers a chance to become stunt coordinators and see how the filmmakers captured all the action. Fans will also get excited about the music videos from the Jonas Brothers and T-squad.

Unless you have been living under a rock lately (or if there is no one under the age of 16 in your house), you have probably heard of "Hannah Montana." Miley Cyrus plays "Miley Stewart" a teenager who by day is your average, ordinary, High School student, but after school? she is Pop Super Star "Hannah Montana!" This hilarious look at life for this talented girl who knows what she wants to do as a career but doesn't want to give up her private family life has become one of the most successful programs in Disney history.

New to video is a compilation of episodes titled "Life's What You Make it." The four episodes on the disc include "Achy Jakey Heart: Parts One and Two," "I am Hannah, Hear Me Croak," and "I Want You To Want Me? to Go to Florida." It's in these episodes that Miley must decide if she wants to date fellow super star "Jake Ryan," and whether or not she should tell him that she is "Hannah Montana." She also learns a valuable lesson about putting family's feelings before her own when her Dad gets a great chance to revive his musical career. "Hannah Montana" is fun for the teens to watch but I have also heard grown adults laughing out loud when "Miley" and her friends get themselves into sticky situations.

This disc also has bonus features including a "Backstage Pass to the secrets of Hannah Montana" where Miley and the Cast talk secrets and secret keepers. It also includes the touching music video "Ready, Set, Don't Go," from Miley's onscreen and real life Dad, Billy Ray Cyrus.

These are two great DVD's that any teen would be lucky to find under their tree!

The First Season of "Ugly Betty" on DVD

Reviewed by: Susan J. Yeager

When last year's new fall season was announced, I poured over all the shows like I usually do and tried to figure out which ones that I should watch. Reasoning that I spent too much time watching television already, I was going to cut back a little. "Ugly Betty" caught my eye.

The set-up for the series sounded to me a lot like "The Devil Wears Prada." A girl who could care less about fashion is hired as an assistant to a mean boss and has to work on a daily basis in an environment full of perfect, pretty people. "Ugly Betty" takes it a step farther by having the lead character be somewhat less attractive (in terms of looks) than her co-workers.

I meant to watch the show. I really did. I even taped every episode. (How very "Betty like" of me to still be using VHS and not DVD or TIVO). Also "Betty" of me, I had no idea where all the tapes ended up and couldn't begin to watch them in order. At some point I realized? I think I was afraid to watch "Ugly Betty" because I was afraid I WAS "Ugly Betty."

Yet with the help of the great invention of television on DVD, the complete first season arrived to be reviewed. There it was, all in order, complete with bonus features, in one box. I had no excuses now. So I popped the first disc in.

When we first meet "Betty Suarez," she is just out of college and looking for her first real job. She lives at home with her loving father "Ignacio", her wild sister "Hilda," and her fashion and musical-loving, nephew "Justin." Betty is a dreamer and sees herself writing for a magazine someday. To get her foot in the door, she applies at Meade Publications. It's perfect timing because Meade owner and CEO "Bradford Meade" has just hired his partying, girl-chasing, son "Daniel" to run the company's super popular fashion magazine Mode. Hoping that this responsibility will help his son grow up, Bradford hires Betty to be Daniel's assistant. Just happy to be hired to work for such an amazing magazine, Betty is oblivious to the fact that she was only hired so Daniel wouldn't be tempted to chase after yet another assistant.

Within her first five minutes there, everyone can tell that Betty is the outsider. The people that work at Mode are a size 0 that must dress in the latest styles and Betty clearly looks different and has a different sense of style. However, the thing that really sets her apart is that most of her co-workers are self-centered, vicious, cruel individuals that will do anything to get ahead in the corporate world. By contrast, Betty is sensible, loving, has her priorities in order, and is a level headed thinker in the center of their self-imposed chaos.

The contrast makes for great television. "Ugly Betty" manages to create such evil characters that you love to watch the trouble they try to make. The show manages to balance that with characters that are so likable that you have to root for them? most especially Betty. She never comprises her ideals or her decency and who's moral compass seems to have direction for everyone who comes in contact with her.

The only problem that I had with having this show released to DVD is that it is completely addictive and it is almost impossible to get anything else accomplished because you just want to get back to the TV and get a "Betty" fix. The set also contains some great bonus items like scenes that were deleted from the shows that aired and a blooper real that is hysterical. And wait! There's more! The cast and crew also take you behind the scenes to show you what it takes to make each episode.

Buy it now and get caught up before the second season of the show premieres on ABC on September 27 at 8:00 PM. I can't believe we have to wait that long!

"Ugly Betty" has managed to take a light hearted look at an age-old problem. How will we ever get people to stop judging a book by its cover and look at the whole package? We give kudos to America Ferrera and the rest of the cast for fearlessly bringing these characters to life and getting the point across so beautifully.

I can't believe that I didn't jump on the "Betty" bandwagon sooner. Yes, like I suspected, I have a lot in common with the title character. Prior to watching the show, however, I just didn't realize how lucky I was to be a "Betty."

"Bridge to Terabithia" Now on DVD!
by: Susan J. Yeager

"Bridge to Terabithia" is now available on DVD, however, the timeless story of two children who create a whole new world has been leaving a lasting impression on readers for three decades.

The book was written by Katherine Paterson and was printed in 1977. A year later, it received the Newbery Medal (an honor given to outstanding Children?s literature). With such well developed characters going on such grand adventures, it seems only right that Disney would decide to bring it to the big screen and now make it available for every home.

When the story begins, the audience meets Jesse Aarons, an aspiring artist who doesn?t quite fit in home (he?s the only boy with four sisters) or school (he is often picked on by bullies). Lonely and with no one to talk too, he finds himself bonding with the new girl at school named Leslie.

Leslie is quite a storyteller and when the friends discover uninhabited woods, their imaginations turn the land into a magical place called ?Terabithia.? In ?Terabithia,? Leslie and Jesse can make the rules and the two start going there to discuss the problems that most kids face while growing up.

The story takes on a heavy subject matter that provides a good opportunity for parents to discuss life changing events with children. This is definitely a film that should be watched by the whole family and talked about afterwards.

Josh Hutcherson and AnnaSophia Robb brilliantly bring ?Jesse? and ?Leslie? to life in this film version and playing ?Jesse?s? sister ?May Belle,? young Bailee Madison steals almost every scene in which she is featured. The filmmakers do a great job creating a fantasy world and the real world in which two so called ?outcasts? discover a rare friendship that the ?cool? kids could only dream about.

Pick up a copy of this DVD and be prepared to be another person that is spellbound by the magic of ?Terabithia.? The legacy of leaving a lasting impression will continue now with everyone who watches this film.

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�

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!

XOXO

Jericho: The First Season

"Jericho" explores the question "What would life be like if a nuclear situation destroyed our surrounding areas?" How would we survive? Would our town pull together or simply turn on each other? Though it sounds like a somewhat depressing premise, the show does a great job of telling the story of survival and of finding hope when you thought it was lost.

The first season, now on DVD, also offers some great bonus features that give fans an inside look of how the series is put together. Bonus footage includes in depth looks and how the show was created, interviews with cast and crew, commentaries and deleted scenes.
