About this product: Have you ever wished for a classic Easter special to show your kids? Here Comes Peter Cottontail is a Rankin & Bass production that bears a marked similarity to the beloved Santa Claus Is Coming to Town. Narrator Seymour S. Sassafrass, voiced and sung by Danny Kaye, takes young viewers on a tour of the mythical April Valley and relates the story of how Peter Cottontail almost failed in his quest to become Chief Easter Bunny. Sassafrass peers into his magic egg, and viewers are introduced to Peter Cottontail--a spunky, ingenious young rabbit who is boastful, is prone to fibbing, and lacks a sense of responsibility. In order to become Chief Easter Bunny, Peter Cottontail must defeat the evil Irontail in a contest to deliver the most eggs on Easter Sunday. Through his trials, Peter Cottontail discovers the value of ingenuity, the importance of placing duty before pleasure, and the folly of self-conceit.
Here Comes Peter Cottontail features catchy songs, great 1970s stop-motion animation, and a fun Easter tale. Parents will find themselves reminiscing over holidays gone by or wondering how they missed this show in their own childhood. The 2 and up crowd will be begging for another showing long after the Easter candy is a distant memory. --Tami Horiuchi
About this product: MUHAMMAD ALI - BOXING'S BEST was produced for an HBO television series on great heavyweights, a series that also includes Joe Louis and Jack Dempsey. Each program runs about one hour.
The documentary includes ring action as well as other important events in the life of Muhammad Ali. Host Barry Tompkins interviews the owner of the Louisville gym where Ali (then Clay) first trained, and also interviews with his longtime trainer Angelo Dundee. There are a number of period film footage interviews with Ali, most of the pre-fight buildup variety.
Rare early fight footage is also featured, including his 1960 Olympic finals victory and his first professional bout with Tunny Hunsaker. Other highlights include his bouts with Archie Moore (1962), Sonny Liston (both I and II) when in the first fight the odds against him were 8 to 1, Cleveland Williams, Zora Folley, Oscar Bonavena, Joe Frazier (I, II and III: "The Thrilla in Manila"), Leon Spinks, and Larry Holmes.
The documentary offers brief insight of the complex nature of Ali's personality that made him the continued focus of media and the public during the peak of his career in the 1960's and 1970's. Ali was full of witticisms before cameras and was often requoted for his own motto: "Fly like a butterfly - sting like a bee".
Boxing history is brought to life in this unique collection of physical and verbal bouts with the man they called "The Greatest".

About this product: Having proven itself as a favorite film of children around the world, Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory is every bit as entertaining now as it was when originally released in 1971. There's a timeless appeal to Roald Dahl's classic children's novel, which was playfully preserved in this charming musical, from the colorful carnival-like splendor of its production design to the infectious melody of the "Oompah-Loompah" songs that punctuate the story. Who can forget those diminutive Oompah-Loompah workers who recite rhyming parental warnings ("Oompah-Loompah, doopity do...") whenever some mischievous child has disobeyed Willy Wonka's orders to remain orderly? Oh, but we're getting ahead of ourselves ... it's really the story of the impoverished Charlie Bucket, who, along with four other kids and their parental guests, wins a coveted golden ticket to enter the fantastic realm of Wonka's mysterious confectionery. After the other kids have proven themselves to be irresponsible brats, it's Charlie who impresses Wonka and wins a reward beyond his wildest dreams. But before that, the tour of Wonka's factory provides a dazzling parade of delights, and with Gene Wilder giving a brilliant performance as the eccentric candyman, Wonka gains an edge of menace and madness that nicely counterbalances the movie's sentimental sweetness. It's that willingness to risk a darker tone--to show that even a wonderland like Wonka's can be a weird and dangerous place if you're a bad kid--that makes this an enduring family classic. --Jeff Shannon
