01.16.12 by Widge @ 10:43 pm Comments on this: one. Add your own.  It's Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears ...and More African Folk Tales, hitting DVD from Scholastic Storybook Treasures. Here's what they have to say for themselves: Perfect for celebrating Black History Month and learning about stories from the African tradition, Scholastic Storybook Treasures™ presents five stories on DVD, two of which have never before been released: "Not So Fast Songololo" and "Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters" In the title tale "Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears" -- a Caldecott Medal winner and West African origin story from author Verna Ardema and illustrators Leo and Diane Dillon -- a mosquito lies to a lizard, who puts sticks in his ears and ends up frightening another animal, which down a long line causes a panic. In the end, an owlet is killed and the owl is too sad to wake the sun until the animals hold court and find out who is responsible. The mosquito is eventually found out, but hides in order to escape punishment. So now, it constantly buzzes in people's ears to find out if everyone is still angry at it. Other stories include "Hot Hippo" and "The Village of Round and Square Houses", and the DVD includes Scholastic's ever-popular read-along function.
The original stories have won the prestigious Caldecott Medal Award, the Horn Book Fanfare Award, and more. Combined, the original books have sold more than 150,000 copies. The Scholastic Storybook Treasures DVDs consistently win awards from the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio, Parents' Choice, NAPPA and other organizations. Categorized as: Contests

01.13.12 by Widge @ 4:53 am Comments on this: nada. Add your own.  It's Division III: Football's Finest, out on Blu-Ray January 17th from Image Entertainment: Comedy mad man Andy Dick (Old School) leads a winning ensemble cast in this outrageous comedy in the no holds barred tradition of Bad Santa and Bad Teacher. Meet bad coach Rick Vice, a redneck psycho with a suspect record (the attempted murder of a Pee Wee football team). When the Pulham Blue Cocks coach drops dead on the sidelines, Vice is brought in to turn around the worst team in college football's lowest division.
Marshall Cook costars as Mitch, the slacker second-string quarterback who butts heads with Vice, his worst nightmare, but maybe Vice's demented methods will be just the spark to turn Mitch and the Blue Cocks into winners. Adam Carolla and MadTV veterans Will Sasso, Debra Wilson, Mo Collins and Bryan Callen go the extra yard in this comedy that will blindside you. Categorized as: Contests
