The Devil Still Wears Prada
The promotional fairies in charge of The Devil Wears Prada want y'all to know that there is a brand spanking new dvd out for you to wrap your eyes around.
I'm sure you all rushed out and saw it after I rapped it big here at NNM.
The special features feature a commentary commentated by just about everyone who worked on the film, except the key grip. There are plenty of deleted scenes, some of which should have stayed deleted, others that are quite entertaining. There are also a clutch of featurettes that are informative enough but bland, in that E! news "style".
The best thing about the dvd is of course the feature, which holds up extremely well on second, third and fourth viewing.
Buy, buy, buy!!!
Disclaimer: I got a free dvd out of this.

*dances around laughing and pointing and saying 'sellout!'*
Not that you'd ever catch me doing such a thing, or arranging a radio interview with someone just cos I want a copy of their attractive and expensive hardcover book or anything... ;-)
Hi
I have a site dedicated to the next movie of Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter): DECEMBER BOYS. I create a petition to ask WARNER BROS Independant (the distributor of the film) to release it worldwide. DECEMBER BOYS is a wonderful and charming story reminiscent of the famous movie Stand By Me. It's a coming-of-age film about family, first love and the search for self. In the late 1960s, four orphans, called the DECEMBER BOYS (Daniel Radcliffe, Christian Byers, James Fraser and Lee Cormie) leave their orphanage for a holiday by the sea in the McAnsh's house (Jack Thompson and Kris McQuade) an eccentric couple on KANGAROO ISLAND. The boys are befriended by a young couple (Victoria Hill and Sullivan Stappleton) who want to adopt a child ... one of them? Consequently, the boys compete to be the most adoptable, severely testing their friendship. Tension and rivalry rise among them, pushing them apart while they compete against each other. Along the way, the oldest boy (Daniel Radcliffe) will also experiences his first romance with Lucy (Teresa Palmer) who will 'teach' him a lot of things! It's a beautiful film about family , first love and the search for self. This film has been filmed in South Australia. The crew and the actors of this film spent almost a month in Kangaroo Island and captured the incredible beauty of the locations on film. This film will be a great promotion for your wonderful landscapes all around the world if you help us (all December Boys fans) to recolt a lot of signatures to save December Boys. In fact, we know directly from Rod Hardy himself (the director of DECEMBER BOYS) that the film has only been sold to the USA and Australia at this stage and that a final decision will be made late in January when the film will have or not its worldwide release. So we have until this date to collect as many signatures as possible to convince and to prove to the WARNER BROS leaders that this film is expected and that it has the potential to be a big success. So this petition has the only objective to convince Warner Bros not to hesitate and that this film deserves a chance to be a great success, we just want them to offer its to DECEMBER BOYS.
We have only until the end of January when the final decision will be made. If Warner Bros leaders realise that numerous persons are waiting for this film, it will maybe convince them to release and promote DECEMBER BOYS everywhere. Please help us, the contribution of Aussie people would do a great difference ! Send this petition to all your friends !

Oh my god - I have never seen such lengthy spam on someone's blog!!!
I WAS going to comment about the parallels (which are, I'm sure, an ingenious and deliberate foil on your part) between your selling out but throwing in the disclaimer at the end, to the overall plot of the film, but now I feel the need to spruik something...
I got offered a DVD of an Orlando Bloom movie I'd never heard of before if I helped spruik it, but I wasn't sure I'd actually get the DVD or not.
(I'd have prefered Devil Wears Prada!)
Sweet baby Lord Jesus!
You sell out once and they flood you with more temptations.
It is like they can smell it on you.
All for the cost of a dvd.
So, can you, like, still see your reflection in a mirror?
Just joshin' (although I think the protocol is to say at the start that you were provided with a free copy and importantly: who by).
Besides I have one thing to say about "Devil Wears Prada": it is a poor, poor imitation of the uber-campy - and brilliant - "Ugly Betty" (and the Colombian soap which pre-dates the Prada book: "Yo Soy Betty, La Fea").
free stuffs're nice, aren't they mikey? ;)
I'm still waiting for a beer and or wine company to approach me asking me to do a review of their products.
**Hint hint CUB hint hint.**
