Spider Man The New Animated Series, Vol. 2 - High Voltage Villains
Media type: VHS Release date: June 1, 2004
Mainframe Entertainment and writer/executive producer Brian Michael Bendis give the venerable story a spin by placing Peter Parker (voiced by Neil Patrick Harris) in college alongside pal Harry Osborn (Ian Ziering) and longtime crush Mary Jane Watson (singer Lisa Loeb). As usual, Parker/Spidey must conceal his secret identity while wrangling a host of foes, which are a mix of ones drawn from the comic book and brand new enemies.
DVD Features:
Three episodes from the first season: "The Party," "Keeping Secrets," and "When Sparks Fly"
Widescreen anamorphic format
Finding Nemo
Media type: VHS Release date: November 4, 2003
A delightful undersea world unfolds in Pixar's animated adventure Finding Nemo. When his son Nemo is captured by a scuba-diver, a nervous-nellie clownfish named Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks) sets off into the vast--and astonishingly detailed--ocean to find him. Along the way he hooks up with a scatterbrained blue tang fish named Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), who's both helpful and a hindrance, sometimes at the same time. Faced with sharks, deep-sea anglers, fields of poisonous jellyfish, sea turtles, pelicans, and much more, Marlin rises above his neuroses in this wonderfully funny and nonstop thrill ride--rarely does more than 10 minutes pass without a sequence destined to become a theme park attraction. Pixar continues its run of impeccable artistic and economic success. Also featuring the voices of Willem Dafoe, Geoffrey Rush, and Allison Janney.

G.I. Joe: The Movie
Media type: VHS Release date: October 5, 1999
A 40,000-year old race of snake people resurface, and with the help of Serpentor, Destro, Baroness, and Dr. Mindbender, plan to eliminate all of mankind and rebuild Cobrala. Once rulers of Earth, the Snake people were driven underground by ice-age temperatures. While in exile, they developed a plant whose spores turn ordinary men into mindless, weak animals. The key to their plan is G.I. Joe's secret project--the Broadcast Energy Emitter (B.E.T). Only this device generates enough heat so that the spores can mature. Humankind's very existence depends upon G.I. Joe, but are they strong enough, smart enough, cunning enough to fight a warrior race with 40,000 years of experience? Don Johnson, Burgess Meredith, Sgt. Slaughter, and others lend their amazing voice talents to this exciting animated feature.
