Ed, Edd n Eddy (1999–2008)
Whacked out funny (But Kevin needs to look inside himself)
25 September 2002
There's Edd the Brains, Ed the Brawn & Eddy the Shames, 3 kids on a mission for truth, justices & JawBrakers, EEnE is one of the creazest toons of the CN with some psychotic but great ideas that the Ed's hatch every episode to make money.

But there's one thing in the show that I can't stand, Kevin, it's amazing how stupid this jock wanna'be is, he calls the Eds dorks but he should have a good look at the kids he hangs around with.

There's Rolf the foreign kid with the weird ascent & weirder customs, definitely not "Cool guy" material.

Jimmy the sissy looking kid with the ringed braces around his mouth, a classic target for bully's & punky snots like Kevin.

Jonny must be the lamest since he talks to a piece of wood, would you make him a part of your gang?

Sarah is Jim's best friend & is releated to Kevin's so-called (or should I say "So-He-Calls") dorks, even I woudn't let her get away with both her crimes against her social life!

The only normal kid on the block is the under-used Nazz & maybe the kankers, but there just fem versions of the Eds.

That Kevin can moch one group of out casts yet he hangs around with another group of out casts, even he rides around in a BMX, how out of date can you get?

So in conclusion, Ed Edd & Eddy rocks.

But Kevin is the real dork of the show, get a vocabulary Kevin!

A great movie tarnished by cry-babies & spoilt brats
5 June 2002
As a movie watcher & Star Wars fan, it upsets me that this great file has been trashed by film critics & over-opinionated cry-babies that illy call themselves Star Wars fans. I reckon most of the complainers who seen TPM are spoilt on the other Star Wars films (I have nothing against Eps 4,5 & 6) & are not ready to see things differently compared to the other films or they take SW fan-fiction to seriously, too seriously to accept Lucas's vision of Star Wars.

1, Jar Jar Binks,I don't find Jar Jar annoying, he's just a piece of computer code, he's not real & I've seen more annoying people in real life. (anti-Jar Jar people for starters) He's there for comedy relief because the other comedy relief characters for the past SW films (the droids, Chowie, eg) worn't even born, didn't appear or played short roles in TPM.

2, Anakin Skywalker, It's so easy to bash a child actor & I do admit that he was not what I expected but I don't mind him, I wasn't expecting Anny to be an insecure, emotionally unstable kid like Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion.

3, The Story Line, Anakin had to come from somewhere, Obiwan needed some past adventures, the Jedi order, the Sith & the Republic had to be explained without imperial censorship & Jar Jar needed a purpose... And the storyline of TPM does all that that & more, the script isn't perfect but do keep in mind that Lucas hasn't directed a Sci-fi movie for years so do expect him to be a bit rusty. If Lucas caved in & removed Jar Jar, how would Jin & Kanobi reach the Queen, odds are they would wonder around the swamp without a clue where to go & get killed by hundreds of Trade Federation droids & Lucas has to rewrite the other films to condensed the fact that Anakin was not "discovered".

4, So-called "racism", So what if Jar Jar sounds like an African-American & the Trade Faderation sounds like WW2 era Asians at war with the US, Star Wars is mostly for kids so do expect stereotypical accents, anyone one knows that Lucas isn't trying to offend any ethnic groups.

Star Wars is a sci-fi, not a company there you own shares in it & can tell CEO Lucas who to run it, it's Lucas's movie, not yours, if he want's to add humanoid frogs with an attitude then he can, if he want's Anakin to act to childish for his age then more power to him, I like TPM the way it is, changing it just to satisfy a minority would destroy the film!

So if your a Sci-Fi fan, a Star Wars fan or there's nothing on TV, give TPM a chance, ignore those anti-Jar Jar jerks, these guy's just don't appreciate anything.

Fawlty Towers (1975–1979)
short lived but damn good British comedy!
24 March 2002
If Sybil wasn't around, Basil Fawlty would be the type of bloke that would beat you to death if you p**s him off.(of atleast shock you silly with his nervous breakdowns)

Fawlty Towers is just one of those comedies that no other show can compare too, with it's characters, it's situations & Basil's style of humor (those WW2 references, especially Basil's "funny walk" will shock & surprise you), too bad it only made 12 shows in all, but once you get the DVD boxset, you'll die laughing.

It's the type of show they should make a new version for TV today.

RoboCop 3 (1993)
Worst Movie Ever
8 March 2002
This has got to be the worst piece of s*@t ever made. It took away 90 minutes of my life which I will never get back again. The acting was as wooden as a puppet. Wait a minute that's an insult to puppets. I'm sure that the $2 or so I spent renting this movie more than paid for the special effects. I could've done a better job with a piece of papers and some crayons.

Not perfect, but not bad
20 February 2002
IMHO, I don't think Warner Brothers are doing any favors for anyone by re-releasing the animated LOTR on VHS & DVD, they are just doing it to cash in on the live action version of LOTR (like when Disney releases a new animated feature, some unknown animation company would release a doggy straight to video version or find an old version & put that on video).

But not saying it's a bad attempt to make a film version of that classic book, it does do a good job of getting though the 1st book, but I don't like the animation techniques they use, the normal pen & paper animation looks sharp & spot'on but the "colored'in" live action orcs, trolls, monsters & hourse-men look revolting, maybe if Ralph Bakshi sticked to normal animation instead, this film would make it to the end of the 2nd book or maybe thought the trilogy with a few short-cuts in the storyline.

Today's Lord of The Rings is a smash hit & should not be a reason to bash the animated version, ok sure it's not perfect, but it's pretty good in it's own right.

Angela Anaconda (1999–2002)
I hate this... "thing"
29 January 2002
As I said in the one line summary, I hate this... "thing" (calling it a cartoon would be an insult to all the cartoonist world wide), the stiff as cardboard animation may have worked for Monty Python & South Park but for Angela Anaconda, don't hold your breath, I got the urge to head down the there "animation studio" & show them how it's done.

I feel sorry the kids & adults who got there black & white mug shots on this program, they'll probably get picked on more then the stereotypes on this show.

Oh not again, please not again!
8 January 2002
Boy that Universal really knows how to milk (or should I say "Mine") a franchise to death, these sequels seem to get cheaper & cheaper every time, it's really sickning that one of Don Bluth's classic mytho's is getting buchered more & more with near low quality sequels like this, I wonder how Don feels about this?

I'm sure glad MGM didn't take The Secret Of Nimh to the same direction as Land Before Time (hey, one dog ugly sequel was bad enough), if there's ever a Land Before Time 9, I think they should try "Land Before Time IX, The Mushroom Cloud".

Yet more living proof that most cartoon sequels suck compared to there original
16 April 2001
The Secret of NIMH was (Without the Disney bashing) one of the greatest animated features of the early 80's(despite what they said about animation in the 80's, we manage to see some great flicks during that time like Transformers the movie & others), but why MGM would take a classic cartoon film & destory it by making a sloppy, out of place sequel is beyond me.

Most of the cast from the original NIMH look like a bunch of weaklings in NIMH2 (poor Justin & Brutus), the plot tries but fails to follow the original NIMH story, most of the new characters are stereotypical & sometimes annoying (whats the idea with that damn caterpillar) & songs, why songs, NIMH never had music numbers every few minutes but NIMH2 is loaded with annoying songs. (that song where the cute animals are daning in the forestat night are what nightmares are made of)

All in all, watch the Secret Of NIMH & imagine this joke of a sequel never existed, NIMH2 isn't entertaining even for the dumest of children, but if your constipated & need to go, just watch NIMH2, it won't take you long.
