Dothan, Ala. -- Movie Gallery, the nation's third-largest movie rental store chain, announced on Monday that antitrust regulators have approved its proposed acquisition of Hollywood Entertainment, the nation's second-largest rental chain. Alabama-based Movie Gallery bid $13.25 per share for Hollywood, or about $900 million. Blockbuster has also bid over $1 billion for the company, but its proposal is still under antitrust review at the Federal Trade Commission.
