Star Wars: Visions "The Duel" SPOILER FREE Review

 


Star Wars the world of Star Wars has taken over pretty much every single form of entertainment and well now it can add anime to that list as well. Since there is now a Star Wars anime anthology TV series out and on Disney+ and well with me being both an anime fan and a Star Wars fan you just knew that I had to check out at the very least the first episode of this show and so join me as I review the very first episode of Star Wars: Visions with the episode in question being called simply just "The Duel" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is a stranger rolls into a small village on an unknown planet and the stranger then has to defend the village when it comes under attack from a group of bandits. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the plot of this episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the plot of this episode as simple as it was was really freaking well told in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode Brian Tee as Ronin , Lucy Liu as Bandit Leader and Jaden Waldman as Child Village Chief. Also starring in this episode is Joe Ochman as Teahouse Shopkeeper and Trooper E , Adam Sietz as Dug and Trooper C , Neil Kaplan as Gran , Michael Sinterniklaas as RA-7, Tusken Raider and Villager D , JP Karliak as Trandoshan and an Alien Guard , Greg Chun as Trooper D and Villager A , Keone Young as Trooper F , Kyle McCarley as Trooper B , Patrick Seitz as Trooper A , Eva Kaminsky as Villager C and Stephanie Sheh as Villager B.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really freaking good. This isn't something that's hard to archive tho since the script for this film is so good and so of course all of the actors and actresses that are appearing in / starring in in this very episode are going to turn in some really good performances in my opinion anyways / at least.



Doing the animation for this episode is Kamikaze Douga who really haven't worked on anything of note when it comes to actually producing animation for either an anime series or an anime movie in my opinion anyways / at least. Now then tho in terms what I thought about the animation that's featured / presented to us in this very episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the animation that's featured / presented to us in this very episode was really freaking good with the animation looking like it was done via rotoscoping in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then as alot of you Star Wars fans will indeed know Star Wars was at the very least very freaking partially inspired by the works of Akira Kurosawa and as such it seemed oddly fitting that this very first episode of Star Wars: Visions be presented to us. Almost like it was an Akira Kurosawa film complete with the episode being in black and white and the Ronin character being presented to us almost like he was meant to be a samurai which honestly just makes the whole connection from Akira Kurosawa to Star Wars come full freaking circle in my opinion anyways / at least.

Now then I will very freaking admit that I actually forgot that this show was even coming out and when I did come out I was away on my holidays. Hence why this review is coming to you a few days after the premier of this series and I will very freaking admit that this was a very good episode to start out on because it almost doesn't feel like your watching a Star Wars product since it instead feels like your watching an old Japanese movie which is something that I personally felt worked really freaking well in this episodes favour in my opinion anyways / at least.  


Now then I will very freaking admit that this episode isn't perfect since there are some things about this episode that I didn't like for example we don't really get a good idea of what the Ronin's personality nor do we really find out why the bandits are repeatedly attacking this one village. Both of which are things that could have been explained with one or even perhaps even two lines of dialog but given how short the episodes are in this series I can kind of see why somethings had to get dropped from the respective episodes storylines tho which is a shame because two things that I mentioned could have been some really cool things tho in my opinion anyways / at least.

So now then this particular episode of Star Wars: Visions had / has a grand total running time of exactly thirteen minuets and one seconds and well if i'm being really truly very freaking honest here people this episode really could and more importantly should have been alot longer then that. Heck you could have very easily have gotten either a full length feature film are a standerd twenty two minuets or even s special forty minuet episode just from this one storyline alone but simply just due to how short this episodes running time is in my opinion anyways / at least it means that this episode does feel a bit rushed in places especially during it's third act / climax in my opinion anyways / at least.  



So now then this episode is at the very least according to IMDB at lest an action episode and so that means that this I have to actually talked about the action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode and well in all honesty I in all honesty really did like the action that's featured / presented to to us in this very episode. Since this episode gave us something that we haven't really seen in Star Wars before now and that's something that I very sadly cannot say without giving away a major spoil but lets just say that this little plot twist makes the action all the more both exciting and intense as all heck at the exact same time in my opinion anyways / at least.



Overall like I said in this very review this very episode was a very good episode to start this out with for all of the reasons that I listed and then some but at the same time this episode isn't really a perfect but it's damn sight better then alot of the more recent Star Wars films and media in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that means that this vey episode earns itself a grand old score of exactly an 8.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Star Wars fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally favourite website to use to get images from this arc being the official Star Wars fandom wiki page this is simply because the official Star Wars fandom wiki page actually has alot of images from this episode and plus all of the of the images that are currently up and featured and on the official Star Wars fandom wiki page are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

My Little Pony: A New Generation Film SPOILER FREE Film Review

 


Animation fans the My Little Pony franchise is one that since 2010 has taken on a life all of it's own with new fans finding out about the franchise and old fans rediscovering the franchise heck the 2010 series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic was so popular among the fanbase that it not only spawned a movie but it's also spawned a sequel / spin off series called My Little Pony: Pony Life. Well now we have an official sequel to My Little Pony: Friendship Is magic and so join me as I review the film that proves that some things don't really need sequels at all with the film in question being called simply just "My Little Pony: A New Generation" enjoy.

The plot of this film years after magic has vanished from the land of Equestria and the three pony races have hated each other for generations and one day two young ponies named Sunny and Izzy decide to bring magic back to the land of Equestria but on there travels they will face many dangers that will test them and there new found friendship to it's very core. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this film in all honesty i in all honesty thought / felt that the actual plot of this film was very weak at best since there's no reason for these two ponies to go onto the adventure and so the whole just comes across as the ponies doing stuff for some unknown reasons in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Vanessa Hudgens as Sunny Starscout , Kimiko Glenn as Izzy Moonbow and James Marsden as Hitch Trailblazer. Also starring in this film is Sofia Carson as Pipp Petals , Liza Koshy as Zipp Storm , Elizabeth Perkins as Phyllis Cloverleaf , Jane Krakowski as Queen Haven , Ken Jeong as Sprout Cloverleaf , Phil LaMarr as Alphabittle , Michael McKean as Argyle Starshine and some very familiar voices as a bunch of some very familiar characters.

Now in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's featured / presented to us in this very film in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the actual acting that's featured / presented to us in this film was at best passable and straight up bad at it's worst. Which is a shame because alot of the actors and actresses that are appearing in / starring in this very film in indeed some very good actors and actresses and so it's just sad to see them phone in there performances for this very film in my opinion anyways / at least.


Doing the animation for this film is Boulder Media who haven't worked on any other theatrically released feature length films about from this one. Which is a shame because even this film did indeed change animation styles from being traditional 2D hand drawn animation of the previous film to being full blown 3D CGI animation in this film the animation that's featured / presented to us in this very film is rather shockingly alot better then what it really had any right to be in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.


Now then one of the biggest issues that I personally had with this film and this isn't really a spoiler by the way but I really hated the fact that there were no stakes in this film. Take for example the previous film that film had alot of stakes for our main characters and so we know what the characters would stand to loose should they have failed in that movie but in this film tho there no stakes and so it doesn't really matter if the characters loose because life would return to how it already is at the start of this very / particular film which isn't even close to being a good thing at all in my opinion anyways / at least.

Not helping things is the fact that the main characters for this film aren't really given any kind of personality traits whatsoever barring Sunny and Izzy that is. This is big issue because in the very first episode of My Little Pony: Friendship Is magic we got a really good idea as to what each character is like that thus made it alot easier for us the viewers to connect with each of that shows characters but here tho because of the fact that of this films main cast of characters don't have any kind of personality traits it makes / made it hard for me personally to connect with any of this films main cast of characters in my opinion anyways / at least.


Now then I will very fully freaking admit that there are some things that I did actually like about this film like for example the character of Izzy was a very fun and more often then not a very funny character to watch in this film the other thing that I liked in this film were a few of the songs but that's really it. Since there's not really that much to actually like about this film which is a shame because this film is literally  sequel to what many myself included consider to be the best version of the My Little Pony franchise and yet this film does nothing all that new or interesting with either it's set up , it's characters or it's settings for that matter in my opinion anyways / at least.

So now then this film has / had an exact running time of exactly one hour and thirty one minuets and twenty nine seconds so lets just round all of that up to a whopping one hour and thirty one minuets and thirty seconds and well to this films credit this film doesn't feel like it lasted that long at all. This is because in my opinion anyways / at least this film had the right amount of running time for the story that it was trying to tell and so there really was no need for this film to last any longer then what it actually does last in my opinion anyways / at least.


So now then this film is a comedy film after all and that means that I have to talk about the actual comedy that's featured / presented to us in this very film and well in my opinion anyways / at least the comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film is very mixed bag of affairs for me personally. Since even tho alot of this films jokes did indeed get alot of laughs out of me there are also these really cringy and out of place pop culture references be it to movies or to brand names which kids just aren't going to get and that are simply just unfunny references to things in popular culture in my opinion anyways / at least. 



Overall the 2017 theatrically released MY Little Pony: The Movie is easily the better movie out of these two films but even so there are some good things that are to be found in this very film there's just not that many of them in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that means that this very and freaking film gets a grand old score of a freaking whopping 5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personal preferred website to use to get images from this film being the official My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fandom wiki page just simply due to the fact that pretty much all of the images that are featured / resented to us on the official My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fandom wiki page are all pretty high quality and as well as being very high definition.

My First Impressions Of The He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe 2021 TV Series

 


He-Man fans we are now living in an age where we have not one but two He-Man cartoons running together at the exact same time and airing on the exact same streaming service being produced by the exact same production companies. Since just a few months after Kevin Smith unleashed his "sequel" series Masters Of The Universe: Revelation Netflix and Mattel are back with yet another He-Man series with this one being a complete and total revamp of the franchise and so join me as I give you my first impression of the He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe 2021 TV series enjoy.

The plot of this episode is a thief called Teela steels the sword of power from the much hated King Randor and is tasked with finding a true champion to wield the sword of power and so she starts her quest by going to a tribe that's full to the brim with cats and other humans where she meets Adam who may or may not be willing to help her defeat a threat that has been tracking Teela since she stole the sword of power. Now then in terms of what I thought about the plot of this episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the plot of this episode was alot better then it really had any right to be since this show is being aimed at little little kids I thought that the plot for this episode was kind of dumb and pretty weak but nope the plot was honestly really freaking good in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Yuri Lowenthal as Prince Adam / He-Man , David Kaye as Cringer / Battle Cat and Kimberly Brooks as Teela and The Sorceress. Also starring in this episode is Judy Alice Lee as Krass / Ram Ma'am , Tom Kenny as RK Units , Benjamin Diskin as Keldor /  Skeletor , the great Grey Griffin as Evelyn / Evil-Lyn , Roger Craig Smith as General Dolos , Antony Del Rio as Duncan / Man-At-Arms , Max Mitchel as Kitty and the great Fred Tatasciore as King Randor and Baddrah.

Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode was alot better then what it really had any right to be. Since nobody goes into a kids TV show expecting good acting and so I was in all honesty surprised to see that the acting that's in this episode was really freaking good in my opinion anyways / at least.



So then doing the animation for not only this episode but for this show as a whole is CGCG and House of Cool Studios and well as you can see this show is the first ever Masters Of The Universe product that's 3D CGI animated instead of being 2D traditional hand drawn animated. In terms of what I thought about the animation that's in this episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the animation that's in this episode was really good altho I do have to admit that I found it weird that everything else was in CGI and yet the clouds and smoke seem to cell shaded which just looked a little bit and a little weird for me personally in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then as you can all no doubt work out this TV series / TV show is a reimagining of the 1983 animated TV series / TV show He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe. Why Netflix and Mattel chose to produce two He-Man TV shows at the exact same time is beyond me since when marketing this show people would mistake this show for Masters Of The Universe: Revelation and as such I do feel that one of these two shows should have came out at the very least next year if not the year after just to give us a little bit of a breathing room between the He-Man shows in my opinion anyways / at least.

Not helping things is the fact that both this show and the 1983 original show both have the exact same name. Which now means people have to clarify which show they are now talking about which is bit of an annoying thing and plus it just goes to show that the makers of this new show have very little creativity when it comes to titles heck you could have just called this show either He-Man or simply just Masters Of The Universe and people would have known what brand name that this show is being associated with in my opinion anyways / at least.


I will very much admit that the marketing for this show didn't / doesn't this show any kind of justice whatsoever since the trailer for this show makes this show out to be like it's just for little little kids. When infact it's more for the whole family with this episode being very intense for little little kids but at the same time there are some scenes in this episode that little little kids will find to be rather freaking enjoyable in my opinion anyways / at least.

Now then this episode has / had a grand total running time of exactly twenty six minuets and five seconds and well if i'm being very freaking honest here people this episode could and more importantly should have been alot freaking longer then that. Since there's more then enough there in terms of story to cover at the very least one hour and thirty minuets and on top of all of that your introducing a bunch of new characters and new world and so there's so much that you need to set up and that sadly isn't done in this very first episode and as such this very first episode of this show does indeed suffer for it in my opinion anyways / at least. 


Now then according to IMDB this show is being listed as an action show and so that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's featured / presented to us in this very episode and well in my opinion anyways / at least the action that's featured / presented to us in this very episode is very passable at best. Which for a show where the main target audience is either very little kids or the whole family is something to be expected in my opinion anyways / at least.


Overall this honestly wasn't as bad of a first episode as I actually thought that it was going to be but tho with all of that being said this episode does indeed fail it doing alot of things that all good or even decent first episodes should do like setting up the central conflict of the show but for a more family friendly / family orientated version of He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe this is honestly as good as you'd think that it is. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this episode in this very post now then tho I will not be giving this episode a rating simply because this is only the shows first ever episode and this isn't a review this is just my first impressions of the show and not an actual review of the show in question.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post from the official Netflix fandom wiki page , the official He-Man and She-Ra fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the actual images that are actually from the actual film its self being Google Images this is simply because Google Images actually has a wide varitity of images from this film all of which are currently featured / up and on Google Images right now / as we speak and plus all of the images that are currently featured / up and on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

WWF No Way Out 2001 Review

 


Wrestling fans I make it no secret that I was a huge WWE then WWF fan however i've barely even reviewed the shows in and around Wrestlemania Seventeen and well that changes right freaking now. Since the show that i'm about to review for you all today has perhaps one of if not the best two out of three falls match with the show in question being the 2001 edition of the classic PPV that is called simply just "No Way Out" enjoy.

The main plotline going into this show is the feud between Triple H and Stone Cold Steven Austin which as us wrestling fans will indeed no technically started at Survivor Series 1999 when Stone Cold Steve Austin was famously hit and ran down by a car to which it was later revelled that was Triple H who orchestrated the running down of Stone Cold Steve Austin. Of course there are man storylines that are running through this show but in my opinion anyways / at least the main main storyline as well as all of the story storylines that are currently going on during this show are very well done and and very well advanced in my opinion anyways / at least.


The stage / set for this PPV rather minimalistic with there being the main tron plus two smaller trons at either side of the main tron and that's really it and well I honestly did like this vert minimalistic set. However I did find out distracting since the two mini trons advertise upcoming matches which was very distracting since it took my focus away from the match that was currently taking place and so I di very much strongly feel that those two mini trons should have had something else playing on them in my opinion anyways / at least.

I will very much admit that this set does make good use of it's space since there's no dead space at all in this particular WWF / WWE PPV set. However I do think that this set should have been more like the lock / keypad / whatever you want to call it look that the logo / graphic for the PPV just because it really does hit home that there would be No Way Out for all of the wrestlers that are on this card in my opinion anyways / at least.


Now then there are some botches during this show with one of the botches coming from someone who you really wouldn't expect to make a botch with that person being X-Pac. Since near the end of the fatal four way match X-Pac and Justin Credible pull Chris Benoit outside of the ring and they both hit a double superkick and yet you can quite clearly see that X-Pac didn't quite connect with his superkick and heck even Chris Jericho himself botches a move in the very same match with both botches from both superstars being fairly freaking obvious in my opinion anyways / at least. 


Now then there is one thing that I would alter about this show and that's the arrangement of two of it's matches since this show as it is has Stephanie Vs Trish happening before Triple H Vs Stone Cold Steve Austin and it had Steven Richards Vs Jerry "The King" Lawler happen after the Triple H Vs Stone Cold Steve Austin match. Now I would switch the two matches around since the women's matches during this time period were seen as pee break matches and so it would give the audience a chance to their breathe which is something that they would really need to do after seeing the classic Triple H Vs Stone Cold Steve Austin 3 Stages of hell match in my opinion anyways / at least.

Another reason for this change is because the crowd was just so worn out for the next two matches which is a shame because those two matches were really good matches in my opinion anyways / at least. This is something that wouldn't be an issue if these two pee break matches were switched around since then the audience would have a chance to catch there breathe during the Stephanie Vs Trish match and thus the audience can they be as loud as they wanted two during the triple threat tag team tables match in my opinion anyways / at least.


Now then I sadly the botches did continue in the main event with a big botch in main even actually affecting the ending of the main event. Since the match was supposed to end with The Rock giving Kurt Angle ONE Rock Bottom and The Rock would get one , two and three however I think the referee forgot the ending because he stopped counting at two and so The Rock was then forced to give Kurt Angle another Rock Bottom and then The Rock got the one , two and three count and yeah this botch is just so freaking obvious and it really did bring down the overall quality of that match in my opinion anyways / at least.

So now then this particular WWE / WWF PPV has / had an exact running time of exactly two hours and thirty nine minuets and forty seconds and well this PPV really didn't need to be that long in my opinion anyways / at least. However there's really nothing that you could have cut out of the show or cut down in the show either since every single and every single backstage segment lasts just the right amount of time in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then since this show is a wrestling show after all that means that I have to actually talk about the actual wrestling that's featured / presented to us in this very / actual wrestling show and well in my opinion anyways / at least the wrestling that's featured / presented to us in this very / actual wrestling show wasn't that bad. Heck i'd go as far to say that alot of the wrestling matches that are in this very show are very good matches with my personal favourite match being the Triple H Vs Stone Cold Steve Austin 3 Stages Of Hell match which is just pyre awesome to watch and is just an absolute classic match to watch in my opinion anyways / at least.


Overall this was a great PPV / show and this show / PPV  was a great way to lead us into and as well as get us hyped for what many myself included consider to be the greatest ever Wrestlemania with that show being called of course Wrestlemania Seventeen. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are featured / presented to us in this very show / PPV in this very review and as such that means that this particular PPV / show gets a grand old score of exactly a 9 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally favourite website to use to get images from this episode being the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page this is simply because the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page actually has alot of images from this episode and plus all of the of the images that are currently up and featured and on Google Images are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being fairly freaking high definition.

Game Of Thrones "A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms" Review



Ladies and gentlemen it's been around about five months since I last talked about anything to do with Game Of Thrones and well I in all honesty felt like talking about an episode from Game Of Thrones. However instead of talking about an episode from an actually good season of Game Of Thrones I thought i'd talk about an episode from the worst season of Game Of Thrones and so join me as I review the episode that is called simply just "A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is the denizens currently at Winterfell have just a few short hours in order to prepare for the literal fight of their lives. Plot wise I really do feel that this episode had a strong and yet simply / simplistic plot since all the plot of this episode is is just showing characters the day of a battle and nothing more then that and in this regard I really do feel that the plot of this episode was indeed really freaking good but at the same time I would have liked it if the plot of this episode was a bit more complex instead of being rather freaking simply in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Peter Dinklage as Lord Tyrion Lannister and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as Ser Jaime Lannister. Also starring in this episode is Emilia Clarke as Queen Daenerys Targaryen , Kit Harington as Jon Snow , Sophie Turner as Lady Sansa Stark , Maisie Williams as Arya Stark , Liam Cunningham as Ser Davos Seaworth , Nathalie Emmanuel as Missandei , Alfie Allen as Theon Greyjoy , Joe Dempsie as Gendry , Isaac Hempstead-Wright as Bran Stark , John Bradley as Samwell Tarly , Hannah Murray as Gilly , Gwendoline Christie as Brienne of Tarth , Conleth Hill as Varys , Rory McCann as Sandor "The Hound" Clegane , Kristofer Hivju as Tormund , Jacob Anderson as Commander Grey Worm and Iain Glen as Ser Jorah Mormont.

Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode. Was as per-usual when it comes to Game Of Thrones the acting that's in this very episode was very good indeed with every single actors and actress that's appearing in this very episode truly giving it their all and truly bringing their A game in my opinion anyways / at least.


Now then here is where  would normally talk about the CGI that's in this episode and as well as list who did the CGI for this episode. However this episode had very little to no CGI within it whatsoever and so instead i'll just talk about the Dany and Sansa because that scene so freaking awesome it was really interesting seeing these two genuinely strong female characters go head to head with each other in a war of words and seeing Dany kind of get the upper hand was just the icing on the cake for me personally in my opinion anyways / at least.


Now then I in all honesty wasn't expecting there to be a call back to when Jaime and Bran first met each other and I was even more shocked to see that there was nothing that payed that scene off. Since Jaime is quite clearly looking for redemption and Bran perhaps even without knowing it kind of doesn't give it to him but perhaps that's that's the point because right now both men are fighting in a war that's bigger then the both of them combined and as such having Bran accept Jamie's apology would just seem out of place especially given where Bran is as a character right now and what kind of a character Bran has become in my opinion anyways /at least.

To me the whole idea behind this episode is indeed a really good idea indeed since it would have been very super easy to just jump into the war with this episode but the very fact that this episode actually takes the time to give us an idea as to what each of the characters are thinking. To me at least makes this war feel all the more epic since there are now alot more added in terms of stakes and that makes the battle all the more epic and awesome in my opinion anyways / at least.


So now then this episode also kind of brings Brienne's storyline to a close since this is the episode in which we see become an official knight of Westeros. I have to admit that I really did like the scene where Jaime finally knights Brienne since it was something that the character of Brienne has truly wanted and so it also was a great way to show us how far Jaime has grown and matured and developed as a character in my opinion anyways / at least.

Now then this episode has / had a grand total running time of exactly fifty eight minuets exactly and well if i'm being well and truly and very freaking honesty here people this episode had the right amount of running time in my opinion anyways / at least. Since there's only so long that a story like this can last and well this episode lasted the right amount of time and so the story didn't start to get boring for me personally and in my opinion anyways / at least. 


Now then since there is no action in this episode I would therefor like to talk about the ending simply because i just dont like how this episode ends. This is simply because this episode stretches out the ending whereas I personally would have ended this episode with Jon and Dany still in the crypts and they still here the war horn and then they turn there heads and then i'd cut straight to the ending credits with the actual ending of this episode being served as the cold open for episode this way you get to end the episode right as the battle is about to commence and then the next episode can be just about the battle and nothing else which for me personally is a great way to end this very e/ exact episode in my opinion anyways / at least.


Overall out of all of the episode that are in Game Of Thrones season eight this is perhaps one of if not the best episode from Game Of Thrones simply because it gives us the chance to see what these characters are like the day before or in this case the day of a battle which was honestly a really interesting thing to see in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this episode in this very review and as such that means that this very episode gets a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Game Of Thrones fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my referred website to use for images from this episode being the official Game Of Thrones fandom wiki page just simply due to not only how images there are from this particular episode but also just simply due to the fact that nearly all of the images from this particular episode are very high definition and as well as being very high quality.

Scooby-Doo fans the franchise is back with yet another direct to DVD animated movie only this time this movie was leaked online a few days before it's actual digital release. Which is weird since there are so many Warner Bros movies coming out and yet the people who leaked this movie chose to leak Scooby-Doo over say The Batman or The Matrix: Resurrections for example either way join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED review of the latest direct to DVD animated Scooby-Doo movie with the movie / film in question being called simply just "Straight Outta Nowhere: Scooby-Doo Meets Courage The Cowardly Dog" enjoy.

The plot of this movie is after Scooby-Doo runs away from the gang after hearing a scary noise he accidently bumps into Courage The Cowardly Dog and together along with the rest of the Mystery Inc crew Courage's owners the group most discover what it is that is making this noise and who is behind it and what it is that they want exactly and put astop to it before it's far to freaking late. Now then in terms of what I thought about the plot of this film in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the plot of this film was rather weak with the actual plot of the film being really hard to uncover what the plot actually is which for a kids movie is not a very good thing or even a good thing indeed in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Frank Welker as Scooby-Do and Fred Jones , Grey Griffin as Daphne Blake and Matthew Lillard as Shaggy Rogers. Also starring in this film is Kate Micucci as Velma Dinkley , Marty Grabstein as Courage , the late Thea White as Muriel Bagge and Jeff Bergman as Eustace Bagge. Now then it's worth noting that pretty much all of the actors that i've listed as starring in this film are playing multiple roles in this film however as I cannot find out exactly what those other roles are i've instead just simply chosen to simply credit these actors main roles instead of including all of their other characters that that play in this film.

Now then as for / in terms of what I personally thought about the actual acting that's featured / presented to us in this very film in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very film was indeed really freaking good. Which given how good that this voice cast is at voice acting really freaking shouldn't come as a surprise to freaking anybody in my opinion anyways / at least.


Doing the animation for this film is / was Digital Emation which has provided the animation for several Scooby-Doo entries over the years including being the main animation studio behind Scooby-Doo And Guess Who as an example. Now then in terms of what I personally thought about the animation that's featured / presented to us in this very film in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the animation that's featured / resented to us in this very very film was indeed very freaking good with the animation being very freaking fluid alot of the time and you can quite clearly tell that the people who doing the animation for this film have a love for both Courage The Cowardly Dog And The Scooby=Doo franchise since the animation that's in this film is of a very freaking high quality in my opinion anyways / at least.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!



Now then I was going to make this review a spoiler free review simply because it's a direct to DVD animated Scooby-Doo movie there's nothing that you can really spoil in these series of movies in my opinion anyways / at least. However this film did the one thing that alot of bad family movies do and that's the fact that this movie has a character rapping and to make things worse the character that raps in this movie is freaking Eustace and it's just such an awful that was included just to make the little kids that are watching this movie feel grown up and mature and not because it's an actually good idea or even a good rap song in my opinion anyways / at least.

Speaking of Eustace he is just such a useless character in this movie because he literally does nothing in this movie. In fact he straight up disappears from this movie not once (which is bad enough) but he disappears from this movie twice and when he is in this movie he adds nothing to the actual plot nor does he do anything to advance the actual plot of this movie heck you could have cut Eustace out of this movie and nothing regarding the films plot or characters or character development would have been lost because he was that useless of a character in this movie in my opinion anyways / at least.


Now then the one thing that I never in all honesty expected to see in this film was to see Velma without her glasses. Yes boys and girls we finally get to see what Velma looks like without her glasses on her face and for once her hand / arm isn't covering her face either and I have to admit that Velma actually looks pretty damn good without her glasses on her face but at the same time it would be super weird seeing her without her glasses on her face the whole entire time in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.

So now then this film has / had a grand total running time of exactly one hour and eighteen minuets and twenty six seconds. Which in all honesty was the right amount of running time for this film since this film is very thin on actual story and character development and so this film would very seriously struggle as all freaking heck to even reach one hour and thirty freaking minuets in my opinion anyways / at least. 


Now then since this film is indeed a mystery film after all that does infact mean that I have to actually talk about the actual mystery element / aspect of this very film that's featured / presented to us in this very film and well the actual mystery element / aspect of this very film that's featured / presented to us in this very film was freaking badly done. Since there this film offers us no clues to whom the actual villain of the film even is but even so the villain of the film is freaking obvious that I actually called it on who the villain of this film TEN FREAKING MINUETS into this very film and so I have to wait for just around an hour to see if i'm right and low and behold I was freaking right and the fact that I managed to correctly guess who the main villain of this film so freaking early into this very film just goes to show you how bad the actual mystery element / aspect of this very film well and truly is in my opinion anyways / at least and yes the entire Mystery Inc gang Scooby-Doo included get sidelined in this films final battle for literally no reason what so ever which is just so freaking stupid in my opinion anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!


Overall while this film is indeed any cartoon fans dream come true sadly this film turns that dream into a living nightmare in my opinion anyways / at least because so much of this film is just wasted potential and this film just isn't as good as perhaps could even perhaps should have been in my humble and in my very honest opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that means that this film gets a grand old score of exactly a 5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Courage The Cowardly Dog fandom wiki page , the official Scooby-Doo fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally favourite website to use to get images from this episode being the official Google Images this is simply because the official Google Images actually has alot of images from this episode and plus all of the of the images that are currently up and featured and on Google Images are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being fairly high definition
