Win 1 of 10 X Copies Of Baby Mama On DVD

http://www.poprepublic.tv/v2/images/stories/december08/babymama_3d.jpg

Baby Mama is this summer’s funniest comedy film, starring Saturday Night Live alumni, and writer and superstar of the hit TV Show 30 Rock, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler (SNL) in a hilarious story of two women, one apartment and nine months that will change their lives forever. Available to own on DVD from December 31st.

Kate Holbrook (Tina Fey), a successful single businesswoman, has always put her career before her personal life. Now, at the age of 37, she has finally decided to have a child on her own, but her plans change when she discovers she literally has a one-in-a-million chance of falling pregnant.

Having tried all the alternative methods of conception, Kate is left with no option but to invest in a surrogate mother. What she gets instead is South Philly working-class girl Angie Ostrowiski (Amy Poehler), as her Baby Mama.

After learning that Angie is pregnant Kate goes into precision nesting mode; babyproofing her apartment and researching top schools but her well-organised strategy is turned upside down when her Baby Mama shows up at her doorstep with no place to live.

What ensues is a hilarious series of events as these two complete polar opposites struggle to live together, all the while preparing for the upcoming birth of the baby.

While boasting an all-star cast including Greg Kinnear, Steve Martin and Sigourney Weaver, it’s Emmy Award-Winning Tina Fey and Amy Poehler that steal the show. Fans of Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock will understand the magic these two bring to the screen – those who haven’t experienced the dynamic duo at play need to grab a copy of Baby Mama as you are in for a real treat!

Win 1 of 10 X Copies Of Wanted On DVD

http://www.poprepublic.tv/v2/images/stories/december08/wanted%203d%20dvd.jpg

In a full-throttle assault on the senses, Wanted tells the tale of one overlooked nobody’s transformation from ordinary to extraordinary.

Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy) is a cube-dwelling hypochondriac; humiliated by his boss and labelled as useless by his cheating girlfriend, Wes’ life is not panning out how he expected.

However, his life is changed forever when he discovers that the father he never knew has been brutally murdered. All of a sudden the spineless, clock-punching pushover is recruited into a secret society of assassins known as The Fraternity.

During his training, he develops lightning-fast reflexes and superhuman dexterity courtesy of his skilled mentor Fox (Angelina Jolie). Wes is assigned the task of dealing out death, with his targets chosen by the mythological Fates who possess the ability to alter the lifelines of mortal men.

After his suspicions build that his wise tutors are not the crime-fighting enforcers they seem to be, Wes is about to find out that the only thing more difficult than ending the lives of others is summoning the courage to take control of his own.

http://www.poprepublic.tv/v2/images/stories/december08/byanymeans_dvd3d.jpg

Intrepid explorer Charley Boorman is back captivating audiences with his latest adventure – By Any Means – and this time around he introduces a bit of Aussie flair!

By Any Means documents gritty adventurer Charley Boorman’s journey as he embarks on his most challenging adventure to date: travelling from his home town in Wicklow, Ireland, to Wollongong in Australia, using over one hundred different forms of transport.

Having completed the hugely successful adventure series’ Long Way Round and Long Way Down with Ewan McGregor, Charley was ready for a new challenge. Wanting to experience how people travelled before commercial flights were so readily available, Charley set off with director and expedition leader Russ Malkin and cameraman, Mungo, from Charley’s hometown in Ireland with their sights set on New South Wales’ sunny shores as their end destination.

Charley and the crew passed through 25 countries across three continents, literally by any means and as many modes of transport as they could get their hands on, including canoes, camels, container ships and of course Charley’s old favourite, the motorbike!

Follow the By Any Means crew as they encounter engaging characters, experience beautiful landscapes and explore fascinating cultures in this truly epic adventure. By Any Means is available to rent or own on DVD from 03 December.

Win 1 of 10 X Copies Of The Mummy 3 On DVD

http://www.poprepublic.tv/v2/images/stories/december08/mummy3_3d.jpg

The O’Connells are back for another round of Mummies and wild adventure, but this time, with an oriental flair!

Explorer Rick O’Connell (Brendan Fraser) returns to face off against the resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic adventure that races from the catacombs of ancient China to the neon-lit streets of post-war Shanghai and high into the Himalayas.

Rick is joined by his son Alex (Australian Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her bumbling brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). And this time, the O’Connells are united in a quest to stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse, which threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.

Doomed by a wronged sorceress to spend eternity in suspended animation, China’s ruthless Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors have laid forgotten for eons, entombed as a vast, silent Terracotta Army. But when dashing adventurer Alex O’Connell is tricked into awakening the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless young archaeologist must seek the help of the only people who know more than he does about taking down the undead: his parents.

Showdowns with mythical creatures, including Yetis and Dragons and battles of the heart provide a fantastic background for non-stop action and witty one-liners in the latest instalment of the Mummy franchise, which is sure to be a hit with the whole family.

Win 1 of 10 X Copies Of The Strangers On DVD

http://www.poprepublic.tv/v2/images/stories/december08/strangers_3d.jpg

The horrifying events that took place in the Hoyt family's vacation home at 1801 Clark Road on February 11, 2005, are still not entirely known.

Between leaving a friend's wedding reception and returning to the house for what was meant to be further celebration, everything had collapsed for happy couple Kristen McKay (Liv Tyler) and James Hoyt (Scott Speedman).

Champagne. Rose petals. Candlelight. All laid out by James as a surprise for Kristen. A surprise he hadn’t planned was a 4 am knock on the door and a haunting voice.

“Is Tamara here?”

Writer/director Bryan Bertino explores our most universal fears in The Strangers, a terrifying suspense thriller about a couple whose remote getaway becomes a place of terror when masked strangers invade and terrorise them. The confrontation forces Kristen and James to go far beyond what they thought themselves capable of if they hope to survive.

Based on true events, The Strangers is no typical horror/slasher film. On the contrary, Bertino’s expert use of silence and suspense taps into a fear that will resonate long after the film is over.

The Strangers is a must have for all fans of the horror genre, redefining what it means to be scared. Lock the doors, pretend your safe… you’re not.

DVD BONUS MATERIAL INCLUDES:
• Alternate endings
• Deleted Scenes
• Audio Commentary
• Strangers at the Door
• Elements of Terror
