March usually comes in like a lion or a lamb. This year it blew in shrieking like a Bieber-crazed junior high girl. Movie news seemed to be steeped in love this past week. But it wasn't the kind of romance that's written about in 16th century literature; it was more the kind that's etched into Trapper Keepers with Wite-Out during study hall.

Yep, between a major Mila Kunis crush and a kiss-and-tell involving Oprah, the last seven days were all about puppy love. Here's how it went down:

Nick Offerman Knows How Adorable He Is On After Hours

Posted 3/7/13 1:30 pm EST by in After Hours

We say "Nick Offerman." You think, "Awwww." That's because the star of "Somebody Up There Likes Me" and "Parks and Recreation" is, simply put, adorable, so what else is MTV News' Josh Horowitz supposed to do besides invite him to be a guest on "Adorable Things"?

On the latest episode of After Hours, Offerman walks us through his history as an adorable person, which started when he was in kindergarten or first grade and his voice dropped to the levels we're so familiar with.

If you're interested in exploring the adorable world of Nick Offerman and seeing him violate a plush "Bolt" toy, watch the latest episode of After Hours above!

Eight Things You Didn't Know About... James Franco

Posted 3/7/13 12:30 pm EST by in Commentary

By Tara Fowler

The psychedelic "Oz the Great and Powerful" arrives in theaters this weekend. Starring the one and only James Franco, the "Wizard of Oz" prequel centers on a small-town magician who winds up in the mythical land after his hot-air balloon gets sucked into a tornado (isn't that always the case?). There, he's confronted with three witches (Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, and Rachel Weisz), one of whom is up to no good.

In real-life, Franco's no magician (though he did many of his own tricks in the film), but he is a mathematician, having interned at Lockheed Martin, an aerospace, defense, security, and advanced technology company, before he took up acting (among many others pastimes). What else might you not have known about Franco? Check out our list below:

Hugh Jackman Put The Danger Back Into The Easter Bunny For 'Rise Of The Guardians'

Posted 3/1/13 4:00 pm EST by in DVD, Video

For the animated film "Rise of the Guardians," the creators and star Hugh Jackman had a unique challenge on their hands. How do you take the most cuddly of all mythological holiday creatures, the Easter Bunny, and turn him into something believably tough? The answer ended up being "Let Jackman be Jackman."

In an exclusive clip from the upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release of "Rise of the Guardians," the recent Academy Award nominee explains how he wanted to bring a bit of himself to the Easter Bunny, keeping his manly edge and the rarely heard Australian accent.

"Rise of the Guardians" hits Blu-ray and DVD on March 12.
