Explanatory Note

On April 15, 2006, the Companys Audit Committee, acting on a recommendation from the Companys management, determined that the Companys unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
as of and for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005 should be restated to revise the accounting and related disclosures for net revenues, cost of revenues, gross profit, net loss, basic and diluted loss per common share,
accounts receivable, production masters, film library, accrued expenses, and stockholders equity . The impact of the restatements on the quarter ended June 30, 2005 is further discussed in Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements included herein.

This amendment is being filed for the purpose of amending and restating Items 1, 2 and 4 of Part I and Item 6
of Part II of the Form 10-Q originally filed solely to the extent necessary (i) to reflect the restatement of the Companys unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2005, as
described in Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, (ii) to make revisions to Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations as warranted by the restatement,
(iii) to make revisions to Item 4 of Part I to reflect our evaluation of controls and procedures as of the date of filing of this amendment, (iv) to include the certifications required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and
(v) to update the exhibits.

This Amendment No. 1 to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is as of the date of the Form 10-Q originally filed, except
for material subsequent events more fully described in Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

This report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 relating to, among other things, our goals, plans and projections regarding our financial
position, results of operations, market position, product development and business strategy. These statements may be identified by the use of words such as will, may, estimate, expect,
intend, plan, believe, should, would, could or the negative of these terms and other terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial
performance. All forward-looking statements are based on our current views with respect to future events, are based on assumptions and involve inherent risks and uncertainties, including factors that could delay, divert or change any of them, and
could cause action outcomes and results to differ materially from current expectations. Also, these forward-looking statements present our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this report.

These factors include, among other things, our inability to raise additional working capital, changes in debt and equity markets, increased competitive pressures,
changes in our business plan, and changes in the retail DVD and entertainment industries. For further details and a discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties, see Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors in our
most recent Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. Unless otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward- looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

GENIUS PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Genius Products, Inc. (Genius, on a parent-only basis, and we or our on a Consolidated basis), incorporated under
the laws of the State of Delaware in 2004, is headquartered in Solana Beach, California. We are an entertainment company, which together with our wholly owned subsidiaries, American Vantage Media Corporation (AVMC) and Wellspring Media,
Inc (Wellspring), produce, publish and distribute films, videos and music on digital video discs (DVDs), and to a smaller extent, videos (VHS) and compact discs CDs), and the new Universal Media Disc
(UMD) under a variety of branded and, non-branded names. Our products are sold at retail outlets nationwide, and, to a very small extent, internationally, either through distributors or through retailers that we sell to directly. We also sell our
products through various websites on the Internet, including our own, www.geniusproducts.com.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates, but management does not believe such differences will materially affect our
financial position or results.

The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals and adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The notes to the condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statement contained in the
Companys Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004. Company management believes that the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes. Certain items in the prior year financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results.

SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Genius Products, Inc., its
wholly owned subsidiary American Vantage Media Corporation, also referred to herein as AVMC (and its wholly owned subsidiary Wellspring Media, Inc.) which was acquired on March 21, 2005, as well as, Sanuk Corporation (which is inactive). In
regard to the AVMC subsidiary, the period from March 22, 2005 to March 31, 2005 were not material from an operations perspective, hence, the AVMC results for this period were not included in the Statement of Operations for the three month
period ending March 31, 2005. The results from operations for the AVMC subsidiary for the period from March 22, 2005 to March 31, 2005 is included in the consolidated results for the three month period ended June 30, 2005, which
resulted in additional revenues of $161,096 and expenses of $382,308. The estimated, unaudited AVMC Balance sheet is included in the consolidated Balance Sheet presented at March 31, 2005 (See Note 5). All significant inter-company transactions
and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain 2004 amounts were reclassified to conform to 2005 presentation.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. The
allowance for doubtful accounts and provision for sales returns includes managements estimate of the amount expected to be lost or returned on specific accounts and for losses or returns on other as yet unidentified accounts included in
accounts receivable. In estimating the allowance component for unidentified losses and returns, management relies on historical experience and takes into account current information obtained from retailers including retail sell-through data and
retail inventory data as available. The amounts we will ultimately realize could differ materially in the near term from the amounts assumed in arriving at the allowance for doubtful accounts and provision for sales returns in the accompanying
financial statements.

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK. For the three month period ended June 30, 2005, Dollar Tree accounted for 11% of net revenues.
For the three month period ended June 30, 2004, 99 Cents Only Stores, Dollar Tree and Anderson Merchandisers comprised 22%, 17% and 16%, respectively, of net revenues.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2005, Anderson Merchandisers accounted for 13% of net revenues. For the six
month period ended June 30, 2004, Dollar Tree, Anderson Merchandisers, and 99 Cents Only Stores comprised 35%, 16%, and 13%, respectively, of net revenues.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of temporary cash investments and trade receivables. We restrict investment of temporary cash investments to financial institutions with
investment grade credit ratings. We provide credit in the normal course of business to customers located throughout the United States. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, generally do not require collateral and maintain
allowances for potential credit losses which, when realized, have been within the range of managements expectations.

INVENTORIES. Inventories
consist of raw materials and finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in-first-out method of valuation. We regularly monitor inventory for excess or obsolete items and make any valuation corrections
when such adjustments are needed.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS. Property and equipment purchases are recorded at cost and are depreciated and amortized over the
estimated useful lives of the assets (three to seven years generally) using the straight-line method. Music production masters are stated at cost net of accumulated amortization. Costs incurred for music production masters, including licenses to use
certain classical compositions, royalties, and recording and design costs, are capitalized and amortized over a three or seven year period using the straight line method from the time a title is initially released, consistent with the estimated
timing of revenue for a title.

We capitalize the costs of production and acquisition of film libraries. Costs of production include costs of film and tape
conversion to DLT master format, menu design, authoring and compression. These costs are amortized to direct operating expenses in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 00-2, Accounting by Producers or Distributors of
Films, using the individual film forecast method over a period of ten years. Costs are stated at the lower of unamortized film costs or estimated fair value. Films classified as part of a library have an initial release date of more than three
years prior to the acquisition of the film. For acquired film libraries, ultimate revenue includes estimates over a period not to exceed ten years. Management regularly reviews and revises when necessary its ultimate revenue and cost estimates,
which may result in a change in the rate of amortization of film costs and/or a write-down of all or a portion of the unamortized costs of the library to its estimated fair value. No assurances can be given that unfavorable changes to revenue and
cost estimates will not occur, which may result in significant write-downs affecting our results of operations and financial condition. The unamortized library costs and production masters at June 30, 2005 was $19,072,272. All exploitation
costs, including print and advertising (P&A) costs associated with our theatrical department, are expensed as incurred.

Patents and trademarks
covering a number of our products are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 to 17 years.

Long-lived assets, including goodwill, are reviewed
annually for impairment and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment is necessary when the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the asset are less
than the carrying amount of the asset.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. We have elected to adopt only the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure - an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 123, and continues to measure compensation cost related to stock and stock options issued to employees using the intrinsic method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25),
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations.

Had compensation cost for our stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards
under this plan consistent with the method of SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, our net loss and loss per common share would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The pro forma compensation cost was recognized for the fair value of the stock options granted, which was
estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 and 2004: expected volatility of 60% and between 20% and 50%, respectively, risk-free interest of 3.7% and between 2.6%
and 4%, respectively, expected life of 1 to 10 years and no expected dividends for both years. The weighted-average exercise price of outstanding stock options at June 30, 2005 and 2004 was $1.86 and $1.69 respectively. The weighted average
remaining contractual life of outstanding options at June 30, 2005 and 2004 was 8.0 years and 4.9 years respectively.

LOSS PER SHARE. Basic earnings
per share (EPS) is calculated using income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is similar to Basic EPS except that the weighted average of common
shares outstanding is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares, such as options and warrants, had been issued. The treasury stock method is used to calculate
dilutive shares which reduces the gross number of dilutive shares by the number of shares purchasable from the proceeds of the options assumed to be exercised. All potential common shares of 25,489,454 were anti-dilutive, and excluded from loss per
share calculations.

REVENUE RECOGNITION. Revenues from the sale of video and audio products are recorded upon the shipment of goods or in certain
circumstances at the time of delivery, depending on the terms of the contract. Costs of sales and an allowance for returns are also recorded at the time of shipment. The allowance for returns calculation is based upon an analysis of historical
customer and product returns performance as well as current customer inventory data as available. Updates to the returns calculation is performed quarterly. Sales made under consignment or guaranteed sales arrangements are not recognized as net
revenue until such time that cash is received for the sale and release of return liability is confirmed by the customer. Revenues from the theatrical release of feature films is recognized at the time of exhibition based on our participation with
box office receipts.

INCOME TAXES. We recognize deferred tax assets, net of applicable reserves, related to net operating loss carryforwards and certain
temporary differences. We are required to recognize a future tax benefit to the extent that realization of such benefit is more likely than not or a valuation allowance is applied.

GOODWILL. Goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment within each fiscal year or between the annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a
reporting unit is less than its carrying value. We will perform our annual impairment test as of December 31 in each fiscal year.

BUSINESS
ACQUISITIONS. We account for our business acquisitions as a purchase, whereby the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value. The excess of the purchase price over estimated fair
value of the net identifiable assets is allocated to goodwill. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities requires various assumptions and estimates.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS. In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations. FIN No. 47 clarifies that the term
conditional asset retirement obligation as used in FASB Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and (or) method of
settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is

unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and (or) method of settlement. Uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement of a
conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. This interpretation also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair
value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN No. 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005 (December 31, 2005 for calendar-year companies). Retrospective application of interim financial
information is permitted but is not required. We do not expect adoption of FIN No. 47 to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Share
Based Payments - On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 123 Revised 2004 (SFAS 123R), Share-Based Payment. The statement replaces SFAS 123, supersedes APB 25,
and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. The accounting provisions of SFAS 123R are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We intend to adopt SFAS 123R for its fiscal year beginning
January 1, 2006. SFAS 123R requires the measurement of all employee share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in our statements of income.
SFAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using APB 25, and generally would require instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value based method. Companies are required to recognize an
expense for compensation cost related to share-based payment arrangements including stock options and employee stock purchase plans. While the fair value method under SFAS 123R is very similar to the fair value method under SFAS 123 with regards to
measurement and recognition of stock-based compensation, management is currently evaluating the impact of several of the key differences between the two standards on our financial statements. For example, SFAS 123 permits us to recognize forfeitures
as they occur while SFAS 123R will require the us to estimate future forfeitures and adjust its estimate on a quarterly basis. SFAS 123R will also require a classification change in the statement of cash flows; whereby, a portion of the tax benefit
from stock options will move from operating cash flows to financing cash flows (total cash flows will remain unchanged). The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement
recognition. Although we have not yet determined whether the adoption of SFAS 123R will result in amounts that are similar to the current pro forma disclosures under SFAS 123, we are currently evaluating the requirements under SFAS 123R. Current
estimates of option values using the Black-Scholes method may not be indicative of results from valuation methodologies ultimately adopted by us. The cumulative effect of adoption, if any, applied on a modified prospective basis, would be measured
and recognized on January 1, 2006.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections - In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections an amendment to Accounting Principles Bulletin (APB) Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim
Financial Statements though SFAS No. 154 carries forward the guidance in APB No. 20 and SFAS No. 3 with respect to accounting for changes in estimates, changes in reporting entity, and the correction of errors. SFAS No. 154
establishes new standards on accounting for changes in accounting principles, whereby all such changes must be accounted for by retrospective application to the financial statements of prior periods unless it is impracticable to do so. SFAS
No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005, with early adoption permitted for changes and corrections made in years beginning after May 2005.

NOTE 2: RESTATEMENT OF QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2005

The Company determined that it was necessary to restate our unaudited consolidated financial statements and other financial information at and for the quarters ended, June 30 and September 30, 2005. The restatement relates to the
following correction of errors:

1. The Company revised royalty revenue to increase the amount recognized during the three months ended June 30,
2005. The total adjustment required to increase revenue to its proper amount was $90,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. On May 2, 2005 the Company completed a sale of a title in its film library to a third-party licensee. At the
time of the sale the rights to this title were not available and, therefore, the Company recorded the sale as unearned revenue. When the rights to these titles became available during the three months ended June 30, 2005, the Company did not
recognize the revenue from the sale. The correct accounting treatment is to recognize the revenue when the rights become available.

2. The Company revised
royalty expense to increase the amount recognized during the three month period ended June 30. The total adjustments required to increase royalty expense to its proper amount was $416,148 for the three month period ended June 30, 2005.
This adjustment was necessary because the Company had recorded this amount as an asset as of June 30, 2005. The correct accounting treatment is to record this amount as royalties expense during the three month period ended June 30, 2005.

3. The Company revised production cost amortization expense to increase the amount recognized during the three month
period ended June 30, 2005. The total adjustment required to increase production costs amortization expense to its proper amount was $63,547 for the three month period ended June 30, 2005. This adjustment was necessary because the Company
had recorded this amount as an asset as of June 30, 2005 when the amount should have been expensed under SOP 00-2. The correct accounting treatment is to record this amount as expense during the three month period ended June 30, 2005.

The effects of the restatement on net revenues, cost of revenues, gross profit, net loss, basic and diluted loss per common share, production masters,
film library, accrued expenses, and stockholders equity as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 are as follows:

dividends. The transaction closed on May 20, 2005, and we realized gross proceeds of $5.25 million from the financing, before deducting commissions and other expenses. Offering costs related to the transaction totaled $236,577 comprised of cash

NOTE 6: ACQUISITION OF AVMC

On March 21, 2005, we completed our acquisition of American Vantage Media Corporation (AVMC), a subsidiary of American Vantage Companies (AVC). The acquisition was completed through an Agreement and Plan of
Merger (Merger Agreement) which provided for the issuance to AVC of (i) 7,000,000 shares of our common stock valued at $2.27 per share and (ii) warrants to purchase 1,400,000 shares of our common stock, half at an exercise
price of $2.56 per share and half at an exercise price of $2.78 per share, plus our assumption of approximately $6.3 million in debt of AVMC. The fair value of these warrants was estimated as $1,596,482 using the Black-Scholes model with the
following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility of 60%, risk free interest of 4.2%, an expected life of five years and no expected dividends. The purchase price is approximated by using the average closing market price of our common
stock over the two-day period before and after the sale was announced. $1,559,911 in direct costs incurred for the acquisition include $238,886 for legal and professional services related to the valuation of the Wellspring library, as well as a
transaction fee of $1,249,183 paid in the form of 550,301 shares issued at a value of $2.27 per share, and 63,000 warrants, half at an exercise price of $2.56 and half at an exercise price of $2.78, for $71,842. The value of the warrants was
estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility of 60%, risk free interest of 4.2%, an expected life of five years and no dividends.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. The estimated fair values of assets
purchased and liabilities assumed, used herein, were estimated based on available information and is subject to refinement based upon the outcome of valuations and other fair value studies, which have not yet been completed. Therefore, the
allocation of the purchase price and resulting goodwill is subject to change.

distributors or through retailers that we sell to directly. We also sell our products through various websites on the Internet, including our own, www.geniusproducts.com. Our business in the second quarter of 2005 includes revenues from four major
sources, as follows:



| |  |  | Sales of branded proprietary and licensed DVDs and VHS (62% of gross revenues for the second quarter of 2005);
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales of branded proprietary and licensed music audio CDs and cassettes (8% of gross revenues for the second quarter of 2005); and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales of non-branded DVDs and music CDs (17% of gross revenues for the second quarter of 2005).
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales of theatrical and other (13% of gross revenues for the second quarter of 2005).
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenues from royalties, licensing and other revenue were not significant in the first half of 2005 as we terminated our distribution agreement with Warner Home Video on March 5, 2004 and discontinued our sales
of jewelry in fourth quarter 2004.

Consistent with other retail product distributors, we experience some degree of sales seasonality. Our
second quarter (period ending June 30) is typically the lowest sales period and our fourth quarter the highest. We have also experienced higher returns during the first two quarters than during the last two quarters. However we have grown
significantly over the past few quarters, and therefore our changes in revenues may not track industry seasonality norms. In addition, we will be placing a higher focus on our branded and proprietary business and less of a focus on value priced
products. This transition may affect future quarterly results.

We do not report our different products as segments because we do not
allocate our resources among products nor do we measure performance by product. Finally, we do not maintain discrete financial information regarding product lines. Our chief operating decision maker receives financial information taken as a whole.
Due to our size and limited resources, our sales, marketing and product development efforts are performed by the same personnel who support all products. Our warehousing costs also reflect support of all products and cannot be distinguished among
product lines. In addition, we do not report our retail operations, representing sales over the Internet, as a separate segment as they are immaterial, representing less than 1% of revenues. Our Internet presence is maintained primarily for
advertising and brand recognition purposes.

On March 2, 2005, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain
institutional investors related to the private placement of 6,518,987 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and five-year warrants to purchase 1,303,797 shares of Common Stock, half at an exercise price of $2.56 per share and half
at an exercise price of $2.78 per share. The transaction closed on March 3, 2005 and we realized gross proceeds of $10.3 million from the financing, before deducting commissions and other expenses. We agreed to register for resale the shares of
Common Stock issued in the

private placement and shares issuable upon exercise of warrants. Such registration statement became effective on May 11, 2005.

On March 21, 2005, we completed our acquisition of American Vantage Media Corporation (AVMC), a subsidiary of American Vantage Companies
(AVC). The acquisition was completed through an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) which provided for the issuance to AVC of (i) 7,000,000 shares of our common stock valued at $2.27 per share and
(ii) warrants to purchase 1,400,000 shares of our common stock, half at an exercise price of $2.56 per share and half at an exercise price of $2.78 per share, plus our assumption of approximately $6.3 million in debt of AVMC.

In May 2005, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors related to the private placement of 3,000,000 shares of
our common stock and five-year warrants to purchase 270,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.56 per share. The transaction closed on May 20, 2005, and we realized gross proceeds of $5.25 million from the financing before
deducting commissions and other expenses.

The highlights above are intended to
identify some of our more significant recent events occurring subsequent to the quarters end. However, these highlights are not intended to be a full discussion of our results subsequent to the quarter.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no
significant changes in the critical accounting policies disclosed in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The preparation of
our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. The significant areas requiring the use of managements estimates relate to provisions for lower of cost or market inventory
writedowns, doubtful accounts receivables, unrecouped royalty fee advances, and sales returns and allowances. Although these estimates are based on managements knowledge of current events and actions management may undertake in the future,
actual results may ultimately differ materially from those estimates.

RESTATEMENT OF QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005

The Company determined that it was necessary to restate our unaudited consolidated financial statements and other financial information at and for the
quarters ended, June 30 and September 30, 2005. The restatement relates to the following correction of errors:

1. The Company revised
royalty revenue to increase the amount recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2005. The total adjustment required to increase revenue to its proper amount was $90,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. On May 2, 2005
the Company completed a sale of a title in its film library to a third-party licensee. At the time of the sale the rights to this title were not available and, therefore, the Company recorded the sale as unearned revenue. When the rights to these
titles became available during the three months ended June 30, 2005, the Company did not recognize the revenue from the sale. The correct accounting treatment is to recognize the revenue when the rights become available.

2. The Company revised royalty expense to increase the amount recognized during the three month period ended June 30. The total adjustments required to increase
royalty expense to its proper amount was $416,148 for the three month period ended June 30, 2005. This adjustment was necessary because the Company had recorded this amount as an asset as of June 30, 2005. The correct accounting treatment
is to record this amount as royalties expense during the three month period ended June 30, 2005.

3. The Company revised production cost amortization expense to increase the amount recognized during the three month
period ended June 30, 2005. The total adjustment required to increase production costs amortization expense to its proper amount was $63,547 for the three month period ended June 30, 2005. This adjustment was necessary because the Company
had recorded this amount as an asset as of June 30, 2005 when the amount should have been expensed under SOP 00-2. The correct accounting treatment is to record this amount as expense during the three month period ended June 30, 2005.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004

The discussion below reflects the restated balances for the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

Revenues:

Video revenues for the second quarter of 2005 were composed of sales of branded and proprietary products including AMC, TV GUIDE and
National Lampoon, Bazooka, Wellspring and branded classic movies and television shows on DVD as well as non-branded classic movies and television shows on DVD. Video revenues were $3,797,130 during the second quarter of 2005, as compared to
$2,004,043 in the second quarter of 2004. The $1,793,087 increase, or approximately 89%, was primarily due to the acquisition of AVMC on March 22, 2005, offset by a slight decrease in revenues from Genius products during the same period.

Theatrical revenues were composed of sales generated from film rental by our theatrical subsidiary, Wellspring Media Inc., acquired during
the purchase of AVMC on March 22, 2005. The revenues generated from the period March 22, 2005 to June 30, 2005 were $467,469 compared to zero for the three months ended June 30, 2004. These revenues are offset by initial print
and advertising (P&A) expenses of approximately $1.2 million, which are deemed investments for building future revenues.

Audio
revenues for the second quarter of 2005 were composed of Baby Genius, Kid Genius, licensed music CDs, Interactive music programs and a Value music product sold at an entry level price point at retail. Audio revenues increased $218,773 or, 79% in the
second quarter of 2005 to $494,707, as compared to $275,934 in the second quarter of 2004. The increase is attributed to higher sales of the Baby Genius and licensed music product and continued sales of the Value music product and Lifestyles Music
Program that was introduced in the fourth quarter of 2004.

Royalties, licensing and other revenues were composed of royalties from
licensing fees from Wellspring Media, Inc, and the license of our Baby Genius brand name, sales of gift sets and plush toys. Royalties, licensing and other revenues increased to $429,803 in the second quarter of 2005 from $26,240 in the second
quarter of 2004, an increase of $403,563. The increase is primarily attributed to the acquisition of AVMC.

Gross revenues increased
$2,882,892, or 125%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2005, to $5,189,109, as compared to $2,306,217 in the same period last year due primarily to increased sales of video and audio products as discussed above.

Sales returns, discounts and allowances increased $1,027,999, or 413%, to $1,276,659 or 25% of gross revenues in the second quarter of 2005, as compared
to $248,660 or 11% of gross revenues in the second quarter of 2004. The increase is the result of the acquisition of AVMC, as well as, additional markdowns and higher than expected returns from sales generated before the second quarter of 2005.
Additionally, there has been an industry trend towards an increasing percentage of returns for the sale of DVDs. The provision for sales returns and allowances is calculated in accordance with historical averages and industry changes, but will
vary based on customer and product mix.

Net revenues increased by $1,854,893, or 90%, to $3,912,450 for the three months ended
June 30, 2005, from $2,057,557 for the three months ended June 30, 2004, due to the increase in sales of DVD and the acquisition of AVMC, offset by an increase in sales returns and allowances. During the second quarter of 2005, two
customers accounted for 10% or more of gross revenues. Dollar Tree accounted for 11% and 11% of net revenues. For the three month period ended June 30, 2004, 99 Cents Only Stores, Dollar Tree and Anderson Merchandisers comprised 22%, 17%, and
16%, respectively, of net revenues.

Costs and expense:

Cost of Sales:

Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost of products sold to customers, packaging and shipping costs,
amortization of production masters, and royalties paid on sales of licensed products. For analytical purposes we review amortization of production masters as a stand-alone cost element and discuss the aggregate cost of producing, packaging, and
shipping of the audio, DVD, and royalty, licensing and other products.

Video cost of sales in the second quarter of 2005 increased
$1,347,137 to $2,751,420, or 72% of video revenues, as compared to $1,404,283, or 70% of video revenues for the first quarter of 2004. The increase in cost of sales for the quarter ended June, 30, 2005 as compared to the same period ended
June 30, 2004 is the result of an increase in video sales due to the addition of AVMC into our video product mix and inventory write-offs for VHS tapes.

Theatrical cost of sales represent print and advertising (P&A) costs of $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to no P&A expense for the same period ended June 30, 2004. Theatrical
P&A this quarter included significant expenditures on the release of titles such as Palindromes, Kings & Queens, Wild Side, and The Beat My Heart Skipped. The Beat My Heart Skipped was not released until 7/1/2005 but incurred
P&A costs in the second quarter of 2005.

Audio cost of sales in the second quarter of 2005 were $699,600, or 141% of audio revenues,
as compared to $142,091, or 51% of audio revenues for the same period in 2004. The increase in cost of sales was due to higher audio sales, an additional write-down of inventory during the second quarter of 2005, as well as an addition to a previous
estimate relating to distribution costs.

Amortization of production masters and film library increased $924,372, or 822%, to $1,036,801
for the second quarter 2005 as compared to $112,429 for the second quarter 2004. The increase in amortization of production masters and film library is primarily the result of the acquisition of AVMC, as well as an increase in amortization of the
production masters due to the development of our library. We currently anticipate that product development amortization expenses will continue to increase compared to similar periods in 2004 as we continue to invest in product content and product
packaging development.

Operating Expense:

Product development expenses increased by $13,486, or 7%, to $216,839 in the second quarter of 2005, as compared to $203,353 for the same period in 2004. The slight increase is attributed to higher payroll, offset by a decrease in
consulting costs.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $158,792, or 34%, in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to the same
quarter in 2004. This increase is due to the acquisition of AVMC, as well as, slightly higher salaries during the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004.

General and administrative expenses increased by $1,764,751, or 203%, in the second quarter of 2005, as compared to $867,410 for the same quarter in
2004. The increase is primarily due to an increase in expenses, such as payroll, rent, and utilities as a result of the acquisition of AVMC. There are a number of transition expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 related to AVMC and the
reorganization which will be eliminated once the transition is completed.

Interest expense decreased to $76,948 for the three months ended
June 30, 2005, or 25%, compared to $102,276 for the same quarter in 2004, due to the payoff of notes payable in the fourth quarter of 2004. The decrease for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was partially offset by an increase in interest
expense of $70,000 related to the $4.0 million notes payable acquired with AVMC.

The net loss for the second quarter of 2005 of $5,296,352
was $4,049,665 greater, or 325% than the net loss of $1,246,687 for the same quarter in 2004 as a result of additional reserves for sales returns and allowances, reduced margins due to discounted product pricing and theatrical P&A, as well as
the additional SG&A expenses related to AVMC and the reorganization.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004

Revenues:

Video revenues for the second quarter of 2005 were composed of sales of branded products including AMC, TV GUIDE and Hollywood Classic and branded classic movies and television shows on DVD as well as non-branded
classic movies and television shows on DVD. Video revenues were $5,216,392 during the first six months of 2005, as compared to $4,501,088 in the first six months of 2004. The $715,304 increase, or approximately 16%, was primarily due to the
acquisition of AVMC on March 22, 2005, offset partially by a decrease in sales of value priced, non-branded classic movies during the first half of 2005.

Theatrical revenues were composed of sales generated from film rental by our theatrical department acquired during the purchase of AVMC on March 22, 2005. The revenues generated from the period March 22,
2005 to June 30, 2005 were $467,469 compared to zero for the six months ended June 30, 2004. These revenues are offset by initial P&A expenses, which are deemed investments for building future revenues.

Audio revenues for the first half of 2005 were composed of Baby Genius, Kid Genius, licensed music CDs, Interactive music programs and a Value music
product sold at an entry level price point at retail. Audio revenues increased $760,980 or, 72% in the first half of 2005 to $1,815,517, as compared to $1,054,537 in the first half of 2004. The increase is attributed to higher sales of the Baby
Genius and licensed music product and continued sales of the Value music product and Lifestyles Music Program that was introduced in the fourth quarter of 2004.

Royalties, licensing and other revenues were composed of royalties from licensing fees from Wellspring Media, Inc and the license of our Baby Genius brand name, sales of gift sets and plush toys. Royalties, licensing
and other revenues increased to $454,921 in the first six months of 2005 from $75,291 in the same period of 2004, an increase of $379,630. The increase is primarily attributed to the acquisition of AVMC.

Gross revenues increased $2,323,383, or 41%, during the six months ended June 30, 2005, to $7,954,299, as compared to $5,630,916 in the same period
last year, due primarily to increased sales of video revenues from the acquisition of AVMC, as well as, an increase in audio sales as discussed above.

Sales returns, discounts and allowances increased $1,043,994, or 236%, to $1,485,963 or 19% of gross revenues in the first half of 2005, as compared to $441,969, or 8% of gross revenues, in the same period of 2004.
The increase is the result of the acquisition of AVMC, as well as, additional markdowns and higher than expected returns from sales generated during the first quarter of 2005. Additionally, there has been an industry trend towards an increasing
percentage of returns for the sale of DVDs. The provision for sales returns and allowances is calculated in accordance with historical averages and industry changes, but will vary based on customer and product mix.

Net revenues increased by $1,279,389, or 25%, to $6,468,336 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $5,188,947 for the six months ended
June 30, 2004, due to the increase in sales of DVD, audio and the acquisition of AVMC, offset by an increase in sales returns and allowances. During the first half of 2005, Anderson Merchandisers accounted for 10% or more of gross revenues. For
the six month period ended June 30, 2004, Dollar Tree, Anderson Merchandisers and 99 Cents Only Stores, comprised 35%, 16%, and 13%, respectively, of net revenues.

Costs and expenses:

Cost of Sales:

Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost of products sold to customers, packaging and shipping costs, amortization of production masters, and
royalties paid on sales of licensed products. For analytical purposes we review amortization of production masters as a stand-alone cost element and discuss the aggregate cost of producing, packaging, and shipping of the audio, DVD, and royalty,
licensing and other products.

Video cost of sales in the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $4,383,583, or 84% of video revenues, as
compared to $3,082,691, or 70% of video revenues for the first half of 2004. The increase in cost of sales of $1,300,892 for the six months ended June, 30, 2005 as compared to the same period ended June 30, 2004 is the result of the sale of
higher margin frontline products and the addition of AVMC into our video product mix. During the second quarter of 2005 there were additional inventory write-offs for VHS tapes.

Theatrical cost of sales represent print and advertising (P&A) costs of $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to no
P&A expense for the same period ended June 30, 2004. Theatrical P&A this period included significant expenditures on the release of titles such as Palindromes, Kings & Queens, Wild Side, and The Beat My Heart Skipped.
The Beat My Heart Skipped was not released until 7/1/2005 but incurred P&A costs in the second quarter of 2005.

##### Table of Contents

Audio cost of sales in the first six months of 2005 were $1,490,400, or 82% of audio revenues, as
compared to $504,308, or 48% of audio revenues, for the same period in 2004. The increase in audio cost of sales of $986,092 for the first half of 2005 compared to the same period of 2006 was due to higher audio sales, an additional write-down of
inventory during the second quarter of 2005, as well as, an addition to a previous estimate relating to distribution costs.

Amortization
of production masters increased $1,008,493, or 502%, to $1,209,471 for the first half of 2005, as compared to $200,978 for the same period ended June 30, 2004. The increase in amortization of production masters and film library is primarily the
result of the amortization of the film library acquired on March 22, 2005 as part of the acquisition of AVMC, as well as the amortization of production masters. We currently anticipate that product development amortization expenses will
continue to increase compared to similar periods in 2004 as we continue to invest in product content and product packaging development.

Operating
Expense:

Product development expenses increased $53,291, or 14%, to $444,153 in the six months ended June 30 2005, from $390,862
for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase is attributed to an increase in salaries, offset by a decrease in consulting costs.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $128,590, or 14%, in the first half of 2005. This compares to $948,735 in sales and marketing expenses for the same period ended June 30, 2004. This increase is primarily due to the acquisition
of AVMC, as well as slightly higher salaries during the six months ended June 30, 2005.

General and administrative expenses increased
by $2,216,591, or 119%, to $4,073,125 in the first half of 2005, as compared to $1,856,534 during the same period in 2004. The increase is primarily due to an increase in expenses, such as payroll, rent, and utilities as a result of the acquisition
of AVMC. There are a number of transition expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 related to AVMC and the reorganization which will be eliminated once the transition is completed.

Interest expense decreased to $82,788 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, or 75%, compared to $330,067 for the same period in 2004, due to the
payoff of notes payable in the fourth quarter of 2004. The decrease in the period ended June 30, 2005 was partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $70,000 related to the $4.0 million notes payable acquired with AVMC.

The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2005 of $7,528,675 was $5,402,647 greater, or 254%, than the net loss of $2,126,028 for the same
period in 2004 as a result of additional reserves for sales returns and allowances, reduced margins due to discounted product pricing and theatrical P&A, as well as the additional SG&A expenses related to AVMC and the reorganization.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net
cash used in operations during the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $12,179,355, primarily due to the net loss of $7,528,675 certain transition costs related to AVMC and decreases in accounts payable, partially offset by increases in accounts
receivable. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net cash used in operations was $3,065,521, driven primarily by the net loss of $2,126,028.

Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2005, was $350,492, primarily attributed to the acquisition of AVMC on March 22, 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net
cash used in investing activities was $133,467, which was primarily due to the development of production masters.

Cash provided from
financing activities of $12,928,513 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, were from the sale of our common stock in private equity placements in March and May of 2005 and cash received from the exercise of stock options and warrants.
Cash received was partially offset by payments on short term debt and offering costs. During the first six months of 2004, cash provided by financing activities was $6,210,881, primarily driven by a private equity placement of $6,419,968, which was
partially offset by payments of $294,999 on notes payable.

At June 30, 2005, we had a cash balance of $1,622,547 and net accounts
receivable of $4,165,991. In early July 2005 we shipped inventory to one customer and recorded receivables of approximately $3 million. The entire amount was collected in July and August. Under certain provisions of the AVMC agreement, we also have
received or expect to receive consideration back from the seller, American Vantage Companies, that would reduce the purchase price of AVMC. The $4.0 million notes, from our AVMC acquisition, are due February 2006. Based on these facts and expected
cash proceeds from future operations, we may or may not raise additional capital or obtain a loan using our film library as collateral within the next twelve months. Although we believe that our expanded product line offers us the opportunity for
significantly improved

##### Table of Contents

operating results in future quarters, no assurance can be given that we will operate on a profitable basis in 2005, or ever, as such performance is subject
to numerous variables and uncertainties, many of which are out of our control.



|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

As of
June 30, 2005, our cash and cash equivalents were invested in financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Due to the short duration of our investment portfolio and the high quality of our investments, an immediate 10% change in
interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our portfolio. Therefore, we would not expect our operating results or cash flows to be affected to any significant degree by the effect of a sudden change in market
interest rates on our investment portfolio.

We do not enter into hedging or derivative instrument arrangements.



|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

We maintain disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no
matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

As of the end of
the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. In making this evaluation, our management considered the matters relating to the restatement of our financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, and the material weaknesses
discussed below. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2005.

In response to the identified material weaknesses, we have remedied the specific accounting policies and procedures which led to the incorrect journal
entries requiring restatement. We have established additional policies and enhanced the procedures that we will follow with respect to the identification of relevant revenue and expense recognition issues. Since the Company is no longer in the
theatrical business, we do not expect that the type of adjustment discussed in Note 2 above will recur.
