OK, so we had a bang-up start of the year last week with The Devil Inside. That movie went on to make over $33 million and probably would have made $50 million if kids weren't getting turned away and kicked out (yes, cynics, that happens). The trailer online jumped from 2 million views to over ...

What the hell?! Warner Bros. just revamped deals with Redbox, Blockbuster and Netflix effectively doubling the wait time for them to get new releases.

Wide Range of New Original AOL Web Series Coming Soon
Wow, remember when AOL Video was just a tiny little project that had almost no content, no real driving force apparently and not all that many viewers?
