ONVIDEO'S WEEKLY GUIDE TO HOME VIDEO RELEASES
FOR TUESDAY, August 15 -- MONDAY, August 21

HOOT
Based on Carl Hiaasen's Newbery Award-winning book, "Hoot"
revolves around a young boy who moves to Florida where he tries
to solve an ecological mystery involving endangered owls, an
assortment of other unusual creatures, and group of eccentric
adults. Roy Eberhardt (Logan Lerman) is constantly moving from
state to state due to his father's job. After moving from Montana
to the laid-back, tropical Coconut Cove, Florida, Roy has trouble
fitting in and avoiding the curse of the new kid. After
befriending two other outcasts, he's informed about a disturbing
threat to a local population of endangered owls taking place at
the construction site for the new Mother Paula's All-American
Pancake House. Determined to protect the creatures, Roy and his
friends must take on greedy land developers, corrupt politicians
and clueless cops as they fight to prevent the destruction of the
owls and their natural home. Vitals: Director: Wil Shriner.
Stars: Logan Lerman, Brie Larson, Cody Linley, Luke Wilson. 2006,
CC, MPAA rating: PG, 91 min., Family adventure, Box office gross:
$8.080 million, New Line.

RV
An overworked Bob Munro (Robin Williams), his wife Jamie (Cheryl
Hines), their 15-year-old daughter Cassie (Joanna "JoJo"
Levesque) and 12-year-old son Carl (Josh Hutcherson) are in
desperate need of some quality time together. After promising to
take them on a family vacation in Hawaii, Bob abruptly changes
plans without telling them. Instead of a week in a tropical
paradise, they're going on a road trip to Colorado in a
recreational vehicle. Dragging his wife and kids kicking and
screaming into the RV, Bob's togetherness plan (which is partly a
ruse to keep him from losing his job) almost immediately hits a
major speed bump. Everything that can go wrong, does. Bob's lame
attempts to navigate the unwieldy, oversized vehicle are met with
silence and scorn from his resentful family. The RV life is a far
cry from their comfortable life in Los Angeles, and every attempt
Bob makes to get them into the spirit of the vacation threatens
to tear them further apart. At an RV camp, the Munro family is
befriended by the Gornicke family -- an irritatingly endearing
happy-go-lucky clan of full-time RVers. The more they try to
elude the Gornickes, the more their paths seem destined to cross.
But adversity has a way of uniting even the most dysfunctional
family members and each setback the Munros experience
inadvertently helps them become a true family again. Vitals:
Director: Barry Sonnenfeld. Stars: Robin Williams, Jeff Daniels,
Cheryl Hines, Joanna "JoJo" Levesque, Kristin Chenoweth. 2006,
CC, MPAA rating: PG, 102 min., Comedy, Box office gross: $57.301
million, Sony.

SCARY MOVIE 4
Director David Zucker ("Airplane!," the "Naked Gun" franchise,
"Scary Movie 3," and "Ruthless People") takes aim at some of the
best fright films, the latest boxoffice hits, music, current
events, pop culture, and your favorite celebrities in this third
sequel of sorts. Anna Faris and Regina Hall are back as the
loveable, dim-witted Cindy Campbell and her self-serving, sex-
crazed pal, Brenda, respectively -- joined this time around by
Craig Bierko as the cute-but-utterly clueless Tom Ryan. Together,
they battle to save the world from a ruthless alien invasion.
And, in true "Scary Movie" tradition, the outrageous celebrity
cameos are non-stop. Those featured include: Carmen Electra,
Shaquille OƒNeal, Dr. Phil, Bill Pullman, Chris Elliott, Molly
Shannon, Michael Madsen, rappers Chingy and Lil' John, Leslie
Nielsen returning as our fearless Commander in Chief, plus many,
many more. Vitals: Director: David Zucker. Stars: Anthony
Anderson, Craig Bierko, Chingy, Phil McGraw, Carmen Electra,
Chris Elliott, Anna Faris, Regina Hall, Kevin Hart, Cloris
Leachman, Michael Madsen, Bill Pullman, Leslie Nielsen, Charlie
Sheen, Molly Shannon, Shaquille O'Neal, Conchita Campbell,
Youngbloodz. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: PG-13, 84 min., Comedy, Box
office gross: $87.735 million, The Weinstein Co.

NEWS

DVD COLLECTIBLES:
Several fabulous sets make their way to home video this week.
First up are a pair of sets from Warner Home Video: "James
Stewart: The Signature Collection," a five disc set with six of
Stewart's films -- all new to DVD: "The FBI Story," "The Naked
Spur," "The Spirit of St. Louis," "The Stratton Story" and a
double feature "The Cheyenne Social Club/Firecreek"; $49.92 with
all titles available individually for $19.97; and "Ronald Reagan:
The Signature Collection," a five disc set with "Kings Row,"
"Knute Rockne All-American, "The Hasty Heart," "Storm Warning"
and "The Winning Team," $49.92; only "Kings Row" and "Knute
Rockne All-American" will be available individually for $19.97
... Fox, meanwhile, will release "The Clark Gable Collection:
Volume One," a three-disc set with "The Call of the Wild,"
"Soldier of Fortune" and "The Tall Men"; $49.98.

The Criterion Collection will release "Six Moral Tales," a six-
disc set with the "Moral Tales" films of Eric Rohmer: "The Bakery
Girl of Monceau," "Suzanne's Career," "My Night at Maud's," "La
Collectionneuse," "Claire's Knee" and "Love in the Afternoon,"
with new, restored high-definition digital transfers, supervised
and approved by Rohmer; $99.95. The multifaceted, deeply personal
dramatic universe of Eric Rohmer has had an effect on cinema
unlike any other. Gently existential, hyperarticulate character
studies set against vivid seasonal landscapes, Rohmer's audacious
and wildly influential series defined a genre. A succession of
jousts between fragile men and the women who tempt them, the Six
Moral Tales unleashed onto the film world a new voice, one that
was at once sexy, philosophical, modern, daring, nonjudgmental,
and liberating. There's plenty of extras as is Criterion's way: A
new video conversation with Rohmer and Barbet Schroeder; short
films: "Nadja in Paris," "Charlotte and Her Steak," "Une
etudiante d'aujourd'hui," "The Camber" and "Veronique and Her
Dunce"; archival interviews with Rohmer, actors Jean-Claude
Brialy, Beatrice Romand, Laurence de Monaghan and Jean-Louis
Trintignant, film critic Jean Douchet and producer Pierre
Cottrell; video afterword with filmmaker and writer Neil LaBute;
a book featuring the original stories by Eric Rohmer; a booklet
featuring "For a Talking Cinema" by Rohmer, a memoir from Nestor
Almendros, and six new essays. Highly recommended. 

And, lastly, Paramount has put together a two-disc set containing
both the 1979 "Apocalypse Now" and the 2001 "Apocalypse Now
Redux," dubbed "Apocalypse Now -- The Complete Dossier." Extras
include commentary by Coppola on both versions, never-before-seen
featurettes, the lost "monkey sampan" scene, 12 never-before-seen
segments from the cutting room floor, Brando's complete reading
of T.S. Eliot's poem "The Hollow Men," an "Apocalypse Then and
Now" retrospective, and a "PBR Streetgang" cast members reunion,
more.
