Installing rpms with rpm --force is a good way to make your system
useless. This basically tells rpm to ignore almost all problems.
I'd recommend you try 
rpm -Uvh vlc/*
first. v and h give some more information on what rpm is doing.

You have a software called galeon that needs mozilla in version 1.2.1. If you 
don't use galeon, it's safe to uninstall it with
rpm -e galeon
