30 October 2009 3:50 PM, PDT | MovieSet.com | See recent MovieSet.com news »

As winter approaches the days start getting shorter and the temperature keeps dropping which makes watching movies at home start to look like a better option than braving the cold weather to go out to the theater.

Lucky for you, Alliance has released a great selection of films that can entertain fans of any genre. Keep your eyes open for Coraline, Nothing Like the Holidays, Away We Go, Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, Easy Virtue, Sin Nombre and 17 Again.

Coraline

Coraline DVD

If you’re looking for a good family film to watch over Halloween, then pick up Coraline on DVD or Blu-Ray to delight and frighten you in standard 2-D, or eye-popping 3-D.  Coraline tells the story of a young girl who walks through a secret door in her new home and discovers an alternate version of her life.

On the surface, this parallel reality is eerily similar to »

G.I. Joe director talks sequel and Tarzan remake

7 August 2009 12:43 PM, PDT | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »

With His new action-packed sci-fi flick G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra opening this weekend, director Stephen Sommers already has a sequel in mind.

And he's also set to direct a remake of Tarzan, based on Edgar Rice Burroughs' famous ape-man most recently seen on screen in live-action form in 1984's Greystoke (starring Christopher Lambert) and 1999's Tarzan and the Lost City (pictured here, with Caspar van Dien in the lead role).

CineFOOLS reports that when Sommers was asked if the G.I. Joe cast were locked in for a sequel, he said "Yes, they are. Next summer."

Of course it also depends on how the first film performs and Sommers told SuperheroHype he was all set to do a follow-up if Paramount gave it the green light. "I'll take August off, but then sure, I'm right back in there", he said.

So, where would the next film take us? »

12 February 2009 9:00 AM, PST | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »

Actor Casper Van Dien, best known as Johnny Rico from "Starship Troopers," has decided to help fight child abuse by making an extremely bizarre Public Service Announcement. The PSA features Van Dien as Rico telling viewers to visit ChildHelp.org for more information, while he holds a rubber gun and a war is going on in the background. What's really funny, is that this PSA was shot only a few weeks ago. If Van Dien has convinced you to get "on the battle field," then you can visit the site for more information.
