Something about a 'Legend' just stays with you
Advantages: very believable, excelent plot Disadvantages: can be confusing to some people
...alone for all those years. I think that this movie was very well written from the main plot to the side plots everything fit together and made it believable. It was the kind of movie you just want to watch again and each time you do there seems to be something else you didn't notice that just adds to the believable plot. ...

---What is Stargate Atlantis?---
Put simply, SG Atlantis is a spin off of the incredibly successful Series Stargate SG-1, which is a spin-off of the movie Stargate (confused yet?)
The movie centres around the discovery of what they call the Stargate. The Stargate is a huge ring with nine pretty little pictures on it. It works like an old telephone in that you choose your numbers (the pretty pictures), hit dial and the ring spins and what ... ...it, I congratulate you!
Stargate SG-1 expands on the idea that life on earth was not started here. It was, in fact, brought here by an extremely advanced alien race. This race happened to be a tad on the evil side and used humans as slaves and carriers for their young (slithery snake type things) as was touched on in the movie. How do they bring it back without ruining the movies ending? Simple! They discover that there is more than one destination. ...

Get Backers
Advantages: Great Storyline from the manga Disadvantages: Nothing bad :)
Based on the popular manga, this is the animated version still carrying the legacy of the famed manga.
It's about two men with the simple wish of being rich. Midou Ban can make people hallucinate and has the gripping power of 200kg, while his partner Amano Ginji can generate electricity throughout his body.
The story is all about their escapades while retrieving the objective of their mission. Throughout their mission, they encounter new and old ... ...in one way or another.
The amazing aspect of this anime are the transitions of the story. Although short, you can quickly go with the flow. One more great feature is the amazing abilities that each character possesses, some of them are even superhuman. An example is Dr. Jackal Akabane Kuroudo, who's fond of killing and has an intense thirst for blood which he relates to Midou who he says is just the same as him.
As for the sounds, the BGM is always ...

X-Men 2 (DVD And Fantastic Four Jonny Storm Watch
Advantages: Better action than some with story line Disadvantages: slow in parts
If you love the first X-MEN then X-MEN2 is a must have, with less story building than the first this film has a lot more action - packed fun for all to love.
There are a few slow parts in the film but overall its a must. the charachters realy start to evolve and if you were a fan of the cartoon then the end makes a lot more to you than if you just watch the film.
Although you are left felling that they could have done more.
E.g. Magneto (Lan Mckellen) ... ...four is again much like X-men 1 you have to wait for the best bits as the story building takes its time however its much more for the younger audience with its light humor and slightly cheesy punchlines however it is quit a good film for kids as it does not require you to concerntrate to long and if you miss bits of the film you can catch up with the plot later. A great xmas gift ...
