Review of Ninja Scroll - 10th Anniversary Edition (Animated) (Box Set) (DVD)

SAUUUUUUUUUCCCEEEEEEERRR

Advantages: Hilarious Comedy, Beautiful Art & Background
Disadvantages: Only 2 Episodes, Out of Print dvd

Dragon Half was made in 1993 and was originally meant to be a 4 part ova however due to poor sales only 2 episodes were made. This is a great shame since Dragon Half is a fantastic comedy set in a bright colourful fantasy world. Our tale begins with the Dragon Half named Minx who is half dragon and half human. She gets her dragon from her mother and her humanity from her father who used to be a famous dragon slayer, ah the irony. Minx is a huge ...
...unfortunately is also a dragon slayer. Your know when Dick Saucer is going to appear because he always sings his name 'SAUUUUUUUUCCCEEERRR'. You wouldn't think a silly, wacky comedy would have such an involving story. But it really does suck you in and it really is tragic how the anime ends on a big cliffhanger at the end of the last episode. I wish i could build a time machine and go back to 1993 to fund the last 2 episodes. Apparently there is ...

Snow into Spring

Advantages: Entertaining, humorous, touching at times
Disadvantages: They only made one series

...minutes long. There's Fruits Basket Room 1, fifteen minutes long, where the voice actress for Tohru, Yui Horie, and the voice actor for Yuki, Aya Hisakawa, are interviewed about the show in a light-hearted manner. There's the Eye Catch Gallery, just over fifteen minutes long, which talks about the drawing of the show, and the meaning of some of the eye catches which come at the point just before where the adverts would go and swipes that are between ...
...screen for a second or two, but here they are shown as a slideshow with commentary. ~~~ Overall ~~~ This series is extremely funny and entertaining. There is drama in the series, but the greatest tension doesn't really occur until near the end. There's a slow build up to a very dramatic climax. The show deals with difficult issues such as the loss of a loved one and the importance of family and friends, but it does so in a way that doesn't detract ...

Advantages: Great action packed film, Great actors, Good storyline
Disadvantages: You may not be able to get into the story-line!

...WHSmith. ***CRANK 2*** Crank 2: High Voltage was released this year and contains Jason Statham again. Chelio’s tears through the town in search for the Chinese criminal who has possession of his heart. Amy Smart, Dwight Yoakham, and Efren Ramirez revisit their roles from the original film. ***OVERALL OPINION*** I think Jason Statham is a fantastic actor anyway and I have to say that I loved this film. It was full of action and also has some funny ...
...I wouldn’t hesitate to watch Crank 2. My dad did how-ever borrow the DVD and after 30mins he switched it off as he couldn’t quite get into the film. If you like Jason as an actor and if you like his other films I think you with thoroughly enjoy this film. I would recommend it to anyone who like’s action packed films. (review als on dooyoo) ...

Review of Crank (DVD)

2012 true or wrong

Advantages: I believe in god so I do not believe the end of 2012.
Disadvantages: 2012 film is entertainment. so make it fun for our minds

...if you buy the hype, 2012 is going to be the year of that will see the end of humanity, much like the earlier 2000s saw the downfall of TRL. The year of shock. Horror. Awe. Awe-some! I am currently much anticipating the apocalypse, especially if it involves John Cusack and will finally foresee that sinful state, California, falling into the Pacific Ocean, where it belongs, obviously. I am anticipating it as much as I did Y2K, with my gallons of water ...
...the claims of December 21, 2012 (in addition to it being my future wedding date), being the end of this current "cycle" we're upon. The Mayans were a very intelligent civilization for their time--they were able to calculate the time of day, and their mathematical accomplishments floored any Europeans' of the time. But there's a lot of controversy as to what December 21, 2012, signifies to them. Of course it's the end of their calendar cycle, but ...
