I have a lot of video content on my HDD's of my Mac Pro, and I have a lot more on DVD. I was wondering if it would be possible to use some kind of remote like the Apple remote to control Front Row. I know the the Mac Pro doesn't have a IR or RF receiver, but are their options out there I can buy?

I use a griffin airclick with mine. I don't bother with front row on my MP, but the airclick will work with it if you want it to, used to use it with front row on my powerbook a bit ago.
