King Kong's Brother? No it's Mighty Joe!
Review of Mighty Joe Young DVD by  sewbizzie

Advantages: Great Family film
Disadvantages: Made my son cry!

...Mighty Joe Young is a lovely Disney film which a saw a few years ago but also managed to pick up on DVD for my husband last week as he said he would like to watch it again. He is not related to King Kong as my hubby has told my boys but he is just another large gorilla! The film starts with a gorilla and a young girl both becoming orphans as poachers kill both their parents. The mother worked in the jungle looking after the gorillas and trying to stop them from being hunted and killed. The daughter Jill, played by Charlie Theron, promises her mother that she will stay in the jungle and continue doing her work and also look after Joe the gorilla now he also has no mother.

Review of The Adam And Joe Show DVD by  bisonhead

Advantages: It's Adam and Joe!
Disadvantages: None that I can think of

...of 2004 this fine best of DVD was released onto the market, the RRP was £19.99 but I picked it up for £3.99 more recently. Whats the Adam and Joe Show DVD? ********************************************* Well its basically the 4 series' of Adam and Joe condensed intto a couple of hours on 1 fine DVD, eacgh series is presented seperatly on 80's twinged menu screen, the teletext one springs instantly to mind. The DVD features many funny clips, including "Toyspotting" , Adam and Joe busking in Covent Garden, ending up with a street robbery, the fantastic "Bobby De Niro song", and the even better popping candy in the mouth with a can of Coke. It sounds pretty peurile but it's far better than that. Any extras? *************** Yes a shed load, they are as follows; 1.THE STORY OF ADAM & JOE, this is a funny look back at Adam and Joe...
