Hailing from Raleigh, NC, sweetcore (another new category? -Ed.) rockers Alesana persist with their usual demanding tour schedule today as they gladly gear up to head out on tour with Chiodos, Silverstein, Escape The Fate, and A Skylit Drive. The tour will commence at the infamous Ogden Theatre in Denver, Colorado, and wrap up in mid-November in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
The North Carolina natives are no strangers to the road, both at home and abroad. This past year Alesana has been out and about all over the map, wandering the stages of the world from Japan to Europe to South America. The band has already shared the stage with bands such as From First To Last, Haste The Day, From Autumn To Ashes, The Devil Wears Prada, and Drop Dead Gorgeous. In addition to their international travel, the band got down and dirty headlining the Vans Warped Tour all summer long on the SmartPunk Stage.
"I don't think I'll ever get used to this," says frontman Dennis Lee. "Seeing kids go crazy like that thousands of miles away from home reminds me that I have the best job in the world."
With sold out venues nationwide and combined record sales totaling at more than 80,000, this national tour is expected to be packed to the brim.
Check out their MySpace page for updated news, videos and music.

Movies come in all shapes and forms and styles and releases. Some films have huge budgets and big stars and get wide releases, others have small budgets, smaller stars and are released limitedly but one does not trump the other. Yes, through my years of watching films in theaters I have been pleased by both large big budget releases and smaller indie releases and as well have been burned by both. So in this game of "I hope it is worth my money" it is always a seeming crap shoot on whether a film will be worth while. Of course I wish I could do more to help you make an educated guess, yet alas I am not educated so I can only help with the guess part, so with that check out below for links to this weeks films hitting theaters which include BODY OF LIES, LOWER LEARNING, THE EXPRESS, QUARANTINE, CITY OF EMBER and ROCK'N'ROLLA. Some are in wide release some are in limited but figured you should know what's all out there either way! Hit up the links below for more information on each film including the trailer, official site and IMDB.com pages!

While for some the anouncement of a Deluxe Edition DVD (out now!) of the classic animated film WATERSHIP DOWN brings bad memories of having to you know read books when they were in school, and for others (like me) seeming embarrassment over the fact that this cartoon has the ability to make us cry (but to be fair I cried at the end of GODZILLA 1985 too... he just looked so sad as he was falling into the volcano) but none can deny the sheer power of this films message. As prominent a message today as it was back in the 70's this is definitely a film that begs to be viewed again or for the first time for those whom have yet to partake, so read on for the official synopsis and trailer and then you know what to do next!
WATERSHIP DOWN synopsis:
Nestled among the rolling hills and peaceful meadows of England lives a community of rabbits. When their warren is threatened, a small group of brave rabbits illegally escapes into the unknown countryside in search of a safer home. Led by the visionary Fiver, the courageous Bigwig, the clever Blackberry, and the honorable Hazel, they embark on a danger-filled journey, where they must use their strength and cunning to survive, while pursuing their dream.
