Kenneth Lauren Burns is an American filmmaker, known for his style of using archival footage and photographs in documentary films.
Ash are a Northern Irish rock band formed in Downpatrick in 1989 by vocalist and guitarist Tim Wheeler, bassist Mark Hamilton and drummer Rick McMurray. As a three-piece, they released mini-album Trailer in 1994 and full-length album 1977 in 1996. This 1996 release was named by NME as one of the 500 greatest albums of all time. After the success of their full debut the band recruited Charlotte Hatherley as a guitarist and vocalist, releasing their second record Nu-Clear Sounds in 1998. After narrowly avoiding bankruptcy, the band released Free All Angels in 2001 and a string of successful singles.

The following events occurred in the year 2000 in home video.
2006 in home video is considered something of a watershed for home media technology, with VHS being phased out as Blu-ray fought to replace the presently dominant DVD format. 2006 marks the end of the VHS era with the release of A History of Violence, the last VHS release for a major Hollywood film. Major retailers are switching to DVD-only sales while tapes are being sent to discount stores. This time marks the beginning of a major format war between Blu-ray and HD DVD which would be quickly won by Blu-ray.
Bee Movie is a 2007 American computer-animated comedy film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by Paramount Pictures. Directed by Simon J. Smith and Steve Hickner from a screenplay by Jerry Seinfeld, Andy Robin, Barry Marder and Spike Feresten, it stars the voices of Seinfeld, Renée Zellweger, Matthew Broderick, John Goodman, Patrick Warburton, and Chris Rock. The film centers on Barry B. Benson (Seinfeld), a honey bee who tries to sue the human race for exploiting bees after learning from his florist friend Vanessa Bloome (Zellweger) that humans sell and consume honey.
Buena Vista Home Entertainment, Inc., doing business as Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, is the home entertainment distribution arm of The Walt Disney Company. The division handles the distribution of Disney's films, television series, and other audiovisual content across several home media formats, such as Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray discs, DVDs, and digital media, under various brand labels around the world.
1998 is nearing the end of the dominance of the VHS format with the DVD overtaking tape sales by the early 2000s. The so-called format wars are almost over with Sony's Betamax format ending production at about this same time. The VHS format does not die out quickly because of its recording function, so many homes were adding a DVD player rather than replacing their VCRs. 1998 is a boom time for the brick and mortar video rental industry.

The DVD is a digital optical disc data storage format invented and developed in 1995 and released in late 1996. Currently allowing up to 17.08 GB of storage, the medium can store any kind of digital data and was widely used for software and other computer files as well as video programs watched using DVD players. DVDs offer higher storage capacity than compact discs while having the same dimensions. The roles of DVDs have largely been replaced by solid-state drives and direct connection to the Internet for local storage, video streaming, and online gaming.
HD DVD is a discontinued high-density optical disc format for storing data and playback of high-definition video. Supported principally by Toshiba, HD DVD was envisioned to be the successor to the standard DVD format.
