The Flintstones & WWE: Stone Age SmackDown is coming to Blu-Ray on March 10th!

 

Get ready for some raw-kin’ action in this all-new, original movie that brings some of WWE’s toughest, wildest superstars to Bedrock!

The crowds roar, the “clams” are pouring in from ticket sales and even Mr. McMagma (Vince McMahon) is taking notice of all the hoopla. Can Fred keep serving up bigger and badder matches or is he in for the rocky ride of his life? Including all-star appearances from The Boulder Twins (Brie and Nikki Bella) and Daniel Bry-Rock (Daniel Bryan), it’s time to get the whole family together for a collection of hard-hitting, side-splitting laughs from the most epic event in all of prehistory!

Did you watch the Oscars last week.  If you did, how do you think Neil Patrick Harris did as host?

Beyond The Lights

Noni (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) is the music world’s latest superstar, but the pressures of fame have her on the edge…until she meets Kaz (Nate Parker), a handsome young cop with political aspirations who’s been assigned to protect her. Drawn to each other, Noni and Kaz fall fast and hard, despite protest from Noni’s Mother (Oscar® Nominee Minnie Driver*) and Kaz’s father (Danny Glover).  However, Kaz’s love might be the missing piece that gives Noni the courage to find her own voice and break free to become the artist she was meant to be.

This film was recently nominated for an Academy Award® for Best Original Song “Grateful” By Diane Warren.

*Supporting Actress, Good Will Hunting, 1997

Trio of Peanuts Classic Movies, Remastered on DVD Giveaway & Printable Coloring Page

I absolutely love the Peanuts gang.  I always have and my kids do too.  I loved watching their full length movies as a kid and now that joy can be shared any time.  Three Classic Peanuts full length movies, Race For Your Life Charlie Brown, A Boy Named Charlie Brown and Snoopy Come Home are remastered on DVD and available for purchase Tuesday February 10th!

Peanuts Movies

A Boy Named Charlie Brown

A boy named charlie brown

Join Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus, Snoopy and the whole Peanuts gang in their very first big screen adventure! This movie follows Charlie Brown to the streets of Manhattan after he qualifies as a contestant in the National Spelling Bee. Poor Linus in a supportive effort to bolster Charlie Brown’s shaky self-confidence, lends him his treasured security blanket.  However, when Linus finds out Charlie Brown lost it, he is the one who needs help.  Nearly passing out from withdrawal and anxiety, poor Linus is beside himself.  What an adventure and you know at the end, Lucy will say, “That Blockhead!”  Charles M. Schulz and Bill Melendez weave a world made of witty dialogue, magical security blankets and bright-eyed beagles, all set to an Academy Award®-nominated score by Rod McKuen and Vince Guaraldi.

A boy name Charlie Brown

Snoopy Come Home

Snoopy Come Home

I think this is my absolute favorite Peanuts movie.  Who can forget when Snoopy and his best friend Woodstock set off to visit Snoopy’s first owner Lila in the hospital.  Poor Snoopy must hear “NO DOGS ALLOWED” more times than he can even remember being tossed out of libraries, hospitals, buses and more.  The Peanuts gang is going frantic trying to find the beloved pooch and bring him home.  My favorite part is when Snoopy and Woodstock are mistaken as a stray sheepdog and parrot by a little girl who is determined to make them her pets.  After giving Snoopy a sanitizing bath and putting Woodstock in a parrot cage she dresses Snoopy in a dress and sits him down for a tea party.  Snoopy is less than impressed and must come up with a way to get himself and Woodstock out of there.  In the end it is a heartwarming story showing there really is no place like home!

Race For Your Life Charlie Brown

Race for Your life Charlie Brown

Ah, the joys of camp: The fresh air! The lousy chow! The obnoxious kids from that other tent! But Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus, Snoopy, Woodstock and all the rest are ready to face whatever camp throws at them. And when the day of the Big Rafting Race comes around, they’ll fearlessly take to the water, pitting the boys against the girls – and Snoopy and Woodstock against all of them –as they face raging rapids, wild weather, and sneaky sabotage from a bevy of bunkhouse bullies. Teamwork, courage and leadership are the keys to success. Will Charlie Brown have what it takes to be a leader?

The Wonder Years: The Complete Second Season on DVD Giveaway For 3 Winners

starvista logo black

The great coming of age sitcom, “The Wonder Years” is a favorite of mine and now you can get the complete second season on DVD tomorrow!

THE WONDER YEARS

THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON

Wonder Years Season 2 

17 Episodes, Over Two Hours of Incredible, Specially Produced Bonus Features and More Than Four Dozen Classic Songs as Featured in the Original Broadcast 

Street Date: February 3, 2015

DVD SRP: $39.95

 

For six seasons, the groundbreaking television landmark, THE WONDER YEARS — named by TV Guide as one of the “Top 20 Shows of the ’80s,”–captured the angst of growing up in suburban middle-class America in the late ’60s, as seen through the life and times of Kevin Arnold (Fred Savage). Audiences eagerly followed his evolution as a typical teenager who remembered every moment of his transition from childhood with excruciating detail and remarkable hindsight.

In THE WONDER YEARS: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON, the next retail installment from StarVista Entertainment/Time Life, Kevin confronts the day-to-day pressures of junior high school life: kids don’t know what they want, and the girls are just as confused as the boys.  On the home front, older brother Wayne (Jason Hervey) continues his bullying ways, but Kevin fights back and grows some backbone.  However, his inner strength is tested when he participates in a class walkout to protest the Vietnam War, and joins his pals Paul Pfeiffer (Josh Saviano) and Winnie Cooper (Danica McKellar) to stop developers from destroying Harper’s Woods, the site of many happy childhood memories.

This nostalgia-inducing 4-disc set contains all 17 complete episodes from SEASON TWO in their original broadcast versions, along with over two hours of bonus programming, including in-depth interviews with key cast and featurettes, and over four dozen songs as they were featured in the original broadcasts with classics by Bob Dylan, Carole King, Aretha Franklin, The Temptations, Cream, Bing Crosby, Joni Mitchell, Simon & Garfunkel, Traffic, Diana Ross and the Supremes, James Taylor, Nat King Cole,The Miracles, Judy Collins, Donovan and many others.

BONUS FEATURES 

  • School Days: Roundtable with Danica McKellar, Fred Savage and Josh Saviano
  • Featurette: The Times They Are A-Changin’: The Era
  • Interviews with: Dan Lauria (Jack Arnold), Alley Mills (Norma Arnold), Daniel Stern (Narrator)

Annie In Theaters December 19th!!! Enter Our Giveaway To Win An Annie Prize Pack!!!

Annie LogoI remember seeing Annie in the theater when I was a kid and now it is on the big screen again starting December 19th with a few updates.  Annie has the same hard knock life but she does not have her signature red hair.  Annie is a young, happy foster kid who’s also tough enough to make her way on the streets of New York in 2014. Originally left by her parents as a baby with the promise that they’d be back for her someday, it’s been a hard knock life ever since with her mean foster mom Miss Hannigan. But everything’s about to change when the hard-nosed tycoon and New York mayoral candidate Will Stacks makes a thinly-veiled campaign move and takes her in.

Take a look at the movie trailer and clip below and you can also get the Family Study Guide HERE and resources for Educators and Librarians HERE. Visit the Annie Movie Website To See More.
