Back To The Future: The Animated Series TV Series "Brothers" Review

 

When a movie is popular it's not uncommon for it to spawn both sequels and some form of spin off be it a TV series or a popular characters getting their own movie. This movie spin off however is quite unique in that it has three of the original stars of the movie all reprising their roles for this series and so then join me as I review the episode that introduces a new Delorean time machine with the episode in question being called simply just "Brothers" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is Verne is sick of being treated like a baby by his brother Jules and so steals the family time machine only to end up in the American Civil War and so it's up to Doc , Jules , Marty and the family dog Einstein to rescue Verne before it's far to late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well in then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad but the issue is that it's also not that good either with this episodes plot really being fairly predictable in my freaking opinions anyways /at least.

Starring in this episode is Voice acting legend Dan Castellaneta as The Voice Of Doc Brown and Christopher Lloyd as Doc Brown. Also starring in this episode is Joshua Keaton as Jules Brown , Troy Davidson as Verne Brown , Danny Mann as Einstein , David Kaufman as Marty Mcfly , Thomas F. Wilson as Confederate General Beauregard Tannen and making his TV debut we also have the great Bill Nye as The Science Guy.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. With thew actors that you expect a good performance from well and truly delivering but at the same time this episodes script really doesn't give the actors alot to work with interms of what their respective characters personalities is.

Dong the animation for this episode is BIG Pictures , Colossal Pictures and the legends and the greats that are currently over at Far Eastern Animation. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad altho it was hard to tell who some of the film characters were meant to be since a very few of them look like how they looked like in the films.

This series is rather unique in that it has two actors playing the exact same character with Dan Castellaneta voicing Doc Brown in the animated segments and the character being played by Christopher Lloyd in the live action segments. What makes this stand out even more is the fact that Christopher Lloyd played Doc Brown in the three Back To The Future movies and yet because Dan is such a good voice actor you can't actually tell the difference because the voice is so similar to how Doc Brown sounds in the movies.

One of the things that I really didn't like about this episode is the fact that they made Doc so much like a cartoon character that he almost becomes annoying. This is done just by having Doc act like he's a cartoon character alot of the time which just doesn't work for this character since this character isn't a cartoon character he's a little eccentric but that's it he's not the type of character that will do the whole walking on air and then fall when he looks down routine that type of joke just doesn't work for this character because this character is smarter then that.

This episode does also break the rule behind time travel in the Back To The Future movies in that you can travel backwards and forwards in time but not in space in other wards where ever you started to time travel from that's where you'll end up when you come out the other side. With that being said this episode does give an in universe reason behind this change in that Doc rebuilt the Delorean and added modifications to it with one of those being the time circuits are now voice activated and have the ability to change location which does explain it away but at the same time it makes you wonder why Doc didn't make those exact same changes in Back To The Future Part 2 which would have saved both him and Marty alot of trouble.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty two minuets and thirty five seconds. Which oddly isn't long enough for a story like this one to last since this episodes story very easily could have bee the plot of a fourth movie but at the same time I can't picture this episode lasting any longer then what does as with this current running time every single scene is about moving the plot of episode forward and as such this episode really does have some great pacing to it with no scene really lasting longer or shorter then what it really needs to.

So now then since this is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad but at the same time alot of this episodes jokes just weren't as funny nor as clever as the ones seen the movies. Which is a shame because when this episode tells a really good joke you really do know about it in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this wasn't a bad episode to start this show on since it does explain alot of thing that fans like myself would point out and notice but at the same time you can quite clearly notice the dip in quality between this show and the movies in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about ll 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 very episode earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 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 Back To The Future fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being really fairly freaking high in definition.

My Review Of The First Dozen Or So Dragonball Z TV Series Episodes

 

Dragonball Z is one of the most iconic anime out there with the anime often being the show that got other people into anime. Heck this is a show that i've wanted to do a review of for sometime but with the large amount of episodes with even Dragonball Z Kai having well over two hundred episodes doing a review of the series as a whole was always going to be out of the question whilst I was looking for an episodes of the show that was dubbed and that had Rock The Dragon as the opening theme song I came across something that I never knew existed and so then join me as I review the first dozen or so episodes of the TV show that got alot people into anime with the TV show in question being called simply just "Dragonball Z" enjoy.

The p;lot of these episodes is after his son is kidnapped Goku has to rescue his son and stop the earth from being invaded. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty not that bad with the plot being very entertaining as well as being quite engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in these episodes is Ian Corlett as Goku and Master Roshi , Saffron Henderson as Gohan and Brian Drummond as Vegeta and Yajirobe. Also starring in these episodes is Lalainia Lindbjerg as Bulma , Michael Dobson as Nappa and Kami , Jason Gray-Stanford as Raditz , I think Scott McNeil as Piccolo , Dale Wilson as Kami , Don Brown as King Kai , Laara Sadiq as Chi Chi , Ted Cole as Yamcha , Cathy Weseluck as Puar , Doc Harris as This Shows Narrator and Terry Klassen as Krillen.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty really good. With all of this shows cast members turning in some really good performances of course they have nothing on the main Funimation dub actors but this dub cast still did in some rather solid performances none the less.

Doing in the animation of all of these episodes is the legends and the greats that are currently Toei Animation. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty really good which isn't shocking at all as this franchise is known for having some really high quality animation.

There's one thing that this era of the show is known for and that's censorship which is something that is evident right from the first episode. It's also something that doesn't really show up all that much at least in these first batch of episodes but it's also something that's not really needed either since all they;d have to do is say that Master Roshi is drinking a non alcoholic drink instead of just recoloring his beer so that it looks like water and yet still keep the froth at the top which only makes it clear what the drink was original supposed to be.

Incase you haven't worked out by now just by who i've listed as starring in these episodes i'm doing this review based of off the The Ocean Dub of this show. Which lasted the first fifty or so episodes of the show before dubbing was fully taken over by Funimation I have to admit that having never heard the The Ocean dub before now having only grown up on the Funimation dub it was hard for me to get on board with this dub just because of the fact that those weren't the voices that I was used to hearing but once I got over at I stopped hearing the voices and started to hear the characters as the dubbing for these early episodes was still really well done which something that I really wasn't expecting to be the case at all.

One of these episodes try to have a deeply emotional moment which just doesn't work as it comes far to early into this shows run. As such we don't really know these characters just yet and while this show was both a sequel show and being adapted for a manga there was still alot of people who were watching this show that hadn't the original Dragonball and as such all of these characters would be brand new characters to them that said tho the fact that this show dared to tackle the subject of death so early on in it's run is a brave thing to do.

Now then all of these episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly two hours and thirty six minuets and two seconds. Which means that I watched at the very least seven episodes of this show I see no reason why this first disk had to be that long since you could have gotten more mileage out of it if you had it be one disk for one arc and not one disk for every two and a bit arcs of this show this also makes these episodes a chore to sit through just because watching a two and half hour almost three hour long anime is always going to be a really hard thing to sit through.

So now then since this is an action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty really good. Which just like the animation isn't really all that new as this franchise is known for having some really good and exciting action and while the action would of course get better as the series goes on and so it's really nice to see that the action was still really good in these early episodes of the show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall these first seven or so episodes aren't a bad way to start of this truly iconic franchise and it's a group of episodes that i;d recommend anybody watch even if it is just for the sake of nostalgia because they are still that darned good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in these very episodes in this very review and as such that means that these very episodes earn themselves a grand total combined score of exactly an 8 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 Dragonball fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful the official Dragonball fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the official Dragonball fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Pokémon: The Rainbow And The Pokémon Master! Review

 

There are so few things that manage to stay within the realm of pop culture and well Pokémon is one of those things. So much so that when the episode that i'm about to review aired just the other day the hashtag #ThankYouAshAndPikachu was trending world wide on Twitter because there's just something about this episode in particular that made me want to review and that made others want to watch it and so then join me as I review the episode that sees two heroes walk off into the sunset for the very last time with the episode in question being called simply just "The Rainbow And The Pokémon Master!" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is after winning his latest tournament Satoshi and Pikachu head home and wonder what to do next. Now then inter,s of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty rather simple and that is something that works out really well in this episodes favor since you don't need a big epic plot line for this episode all you need is something that's rather small scale and simple and that's what the plot to this episode is and it does well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this episode is Rica Matsumoto as Satoshi , Ikue Ōtani as Pikachu and Mayumi Iizuka as Kasumi. Also starring in this episode is Yūji Ueda as Takeshi , Masami Toyoshima as Hanako , Megumi Hayashibara as Musashi , Shinichiro Miki as Kojiro , Kenyuu Horiuchi as Professor Okido , Yasuhiro Mamiya as Satoshi's Gengar , Megumi Hayashibara as Satoshi's Pidgeotto , I think Shin-ichiro Miki as Hitokage , Inuko Inuyama as Shigeru Okido and Yūko Kobayashi and Nyarth.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. With all of this episodes cast turning in some really good performances which given that most of them have been playing there respective characters since the show began in the mid to late nineteen nineties isn't that much of a surprise whatsoever since they would know how best to portray their respective characters in any given situation and that is something that really does show in the performances in this episode.

Doing the animation for this episode is of the course the  legends and the greats that are currently over at OLM and Team Kato. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this episode was in all honesty really good and was alot better then what I very really thought that it would be.

The key theme behind this episode is goodbye since we say goodbye to alot of characters in this one episode alone with Team Rocket and Kasumi / Misty and Takeshi / Brock also leaving the show. Of course this won't be the last time that we see these characters but since those characters are so tied together with Satoshi / Ash's journey it would be hard to imagine them not being in this episode and having them all in this episode even if it is just very briefly is very fitting since to the mainstream audience they are the core cast of Pokemon.

I'm trying to keep this review as spoiler free as possible but I will say that a character from the past comes back in a rather meaningful way. While this wasn't the character that i'd have brought back in this episode since there are at least two that I can think of that would help to bring this episode full circle but it was nice that they managed to bring this character and have them play a big part in the plot of the episode which was something that they just didn't have to do but the fact that they did that shows that the makers of this show are big fans of the show just like alot of other people are. 

What I really loved about this episode is that they played classic clips from the show during the episodes intro. Which i'm not going to lie did bring a tear to me as it brought me back to when I was a kid watching those scenes play out for the very first time and for a franchise that's this old and is still going on the fact that they played these classic clips just goes to show you that in a series that's full to the brim of important episodes this one is perhaps the most important episode of them all and is rightfully treated as such.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty three minuets and six seconds. Which really isn't long enough to tell a story like this one since they have to give these characters the time that they needed in order to say their goodbye's which they just can't do heck some of the cast leave before the  five minuet ark and that really does dilute the episode as it makes the goodbye's feel rushed this is even more evident in the shows final moments with the scene being set up and happening and ending all within the space of just a few minuets and the central plot of the episode only takes up a few minuets of screen time which for an episode that's this important isn't enough time at all.

So now then since there is some comedy in this episode that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. With this episode having some genuinely funny moments in it but at the same time this episode did also have alot more bad jokes within it then it did contain some really good jokes within it in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this was a really heartfelt episode and even if you don't watch Pokemon or if your like me and you haven't watched Pokemon in a while i'd still recommend this episode because it is that good of an episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then 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 very 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 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 Pokémon fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Kim Possible 2019 Film Review

 

Disney fans with the company releasing an awful lot of live action remakes of their classic animated properties. It's understandable that one or two would be forgotten and well while I was browsing Youtube one day I happened to remember one such film because unlike all of the other live action remakes this was a Disney Channel Original Movie and so then join me as I review the film that lets face it alot of us all forgot about with the film in question being called simply just "Kim Possible" enjoy.

The plot of this film is Kim Possible has to stop the evil Dr. Drakken from trying to take over the world once and for all. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us on this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty pretty bad since the films plot is at best weak at best and at it's worst just straight up not there in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is Sadie Stanley as Kim Possible , Sean Giambrone as Ron Stoppable and Ciara Riley Wilson as Athena. Also starring in this film is Taylor Ortega as Shego , Connie Ray as Nana Possible , Issac Ryan Brown as Wade , Erika Tham as Bonnie Rockwaller , Todd Stashwick as Dr. Drakken , Alyson Hannigan as Dr. Ann Possible , Matthew Clarke as James Timothy Possible , Owen Fielding as Tim Possible , Connor Fielding as Jim Possible , Michael P. Northey as Mr. Barkin , Nancy Cartwright as The Voice Of Rufus , Patton Oswalt as Professor Dementor and Christy Carlson Romano as Poppy Blu.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting thats actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. With this films cast quite clearly trying their best but the issue here is the fact that this films script just doesn't give any of this films cast members anything to work with interms of what their respective personalities are.

Doing the CGI for this film is Artifex Studios , GloriaFX and the little known studio that's known as Ingenuity Studios. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty pretty bad since there are alot of just straight up ugly looking effects in this film and that is me being very kind.

As alot of you will know this film is remake of the Disney Channel animated show of the exact same name with the show airing from June 7th 2002 with it's final episode airing on September 7th 2007. With this movie keeping alot of things from the cartoon most noticeably is the shows iconic theme song and intro both of which are redone for this movie with the intro being very slower paced which just takes away any and all excitement that the films pretitles scene had built up and the theme song is at best OK.

This movie just straight up gets both Kim Possible herself and Ron Stoppable wrong which is dd because this movie was c-written by the shows creators Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle who here are joined by Josh Cagan. With Kim coming across as being a self centered egotist and Ron just coming across as annoying and really unfunny which is shame because in the show both characters were really funny and Kim was a very caring person who didn't have that much of an ego and so to see this movie get it's two main characters wrong is just really disheartening to see. 

Really the only two characters that this film right was it's villains who act exactly like their animated counterparts. Which was something that I really liked as there scenes together where the best scenes in the whole entire movie and it's during their scenes together that I manged to laugh just because they were given some pretty funny lines to say and they really did make any scene that were in alot more better which just goes to show you just how wrong this film got it's main heroes especially compared to how  right it got it's main two villains.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty six minuets and twenty five seconds. Which is so much mire longer then what this film really needed to be since if you count just the scenes that add something to main plot and none of the films subplots this film only has enough story their to last around forty to forty five minuets and that's how long this film should have been since then it would have made all of the issues that I just mentioned seem very minor but as it is those issues are now very major issues.

So now the since this is an action film that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty OK at best. As we did get some pretty looking action scenes but at the same time tho you could quite clearly tell when they were using a stunt double and that really did take me out of the action as it reminded me that I was just watching movie which is a shame because when the action s good it is like I said OK at best in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall I can very easily see why this movie is forgotten about by alot of people as it really is that bad of a movie and it's one that really does deserve to be forgotten about in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then 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 film earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 3.5 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 Disney fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful the official Disney fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the official Disney fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.

Worzel Gummidge "Will the Real Aunt Sally...?" Review

 

TV fans it's not uncommon for a TV show to make a very popular side character or a recurring character a main character. However in this case of this show and of this episode it came at the expense of the main character and that hurt the writing of the show which is a shame because this show has consistently been very well written and so join me as I review the episode that proves that you can have to much of a good thing with the episode in question being called simply just "Will the Real Aunt Sally...?" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is when another Aunt Sally is seen in the village poor Worzel has to decide which is his real Aunt Sally and which one isn't. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad but at the same time it's quite clearly not the best plot that this show had since it's missing that special charm that made all of the plots works so well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Starring in this episode is Doctor Who star Jon Pertwee as Worzel Gummidge and Jeremy Austin as John Peters. Also starring in this episode is Charlotte Coleman as Sue Peters , Geoffrey Bayldon as The Crowman , Fawlty Towers co-creator , co-writer and star Connie Booth as Aunt Sally II , Kate David as The Traffic Warden , Michael Ripper as Mr. Shepherd , Una Stubbs as Aunt Sally and Last Of The Summer Wine star Sarah Thomas as Miss Maple.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. Which is the something that could be said for every episode of this fantastic show and it really helps that the scripts for this show even this episode is s good that all the cast have to do is say the words as their written and a good performance really will come out very naturally.

Usually when I watch an episode of this show i'm usually stuck wondering how they achieved certain effects. Which is something that just wasn't the case for this episode since all they did was just hide the actors face whenever the two Aunt Sallie's appeared early on in the episode and that was it which was great because it's effect that worked well and since it's such a simple effect it's also a really effective one as well since it leaves us the audience wondering which one was the real one as well and so that we the audience really can now play along with the characters of this episode.

Sadly series four is where they really started to overuse the Aunt Sally character with the character being in pretty much every episode of this season of the show. Which meant that we very sadly got alot of the same plot for this series and alot less focus on Worzel Gummidge which is a shame because that's when the show was at it's whimsical best and while yes we did get some Aunt Sally episodes in those earlier seasons those where often saved for big emotional episodes which in alot of cases did make you cry.

This episode also doesn't make Aunt Sally a more likable character either since she tricks the person who owns her into thinking Aunt Sally II is her and so Aunt Sally II goes away crying because she now won't get to marry the person that she loves. Which does make Aunt Sally seem a bit jealous since she's so used to being the only fairground attraction their but at the same time she really didn't have to get involved with Aunt Sally II and make her miserable as it really doesn't effect her since she'd still be free to whatever she wants to do.

This episode really does lack the emotional punch that alot of Aunt Sally episodes have just because you can see the ending coming a mile away. This is also because the character is so overused at this point that you know exactly how this episode is going to end which means that any and all emotional impact that this episodes ending might have had is now gone because you already know exactly how it's going to end and when you can see the ending coming a mile away then there's something that's quite clearly wrong with this episode.

Now then I cannot for the absolutely life of me remember whatever this episodes running time even was but I do know that for a fact that this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of roughly twenty six minuets. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for this show and to this episodes credit it does make good use of this running time and it has more the enough there in terms of story to cover that running time I only wish that we got to spend more time with Aunt Sally II just so that her character could be a bit more fully developed then what it already is.

So now then since is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty pretty weak. This is because we don't get alot of time with Worzel trying to work out which Aunt Sally is his Aunt Sally which is a shame because that's when we do get some good comedy in this episode and the same thing goes with the two Aunt Sallie's just missing each other as well since there are some good jokes in those types of moments and scenes in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this was a pretty weak but it's not as weak as "A Little Learning" was since there is still a point and there is still conflict to be found in this episode and that  does make all the difference in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then 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 very episode earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 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 Wikipedia , Amazon . Co . Uk and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. With all of this episodes cast members turning in some really good performances which really isn't all that surprising since alot of this episodes cast members are either voice acting or just acting legends.

Doing the actual animation in this episode is the legends and the greats that are currently over at A-1 Productions. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad . While there was some animation errors in this episode the overall quality of the animation that we got to see in this episode was of a very quality and looks almost feature length worthy.

As the title of this episode would suggest this is the episode that introduces to us to The Punk Frogs who I really don't mind as characters. Altho what really bugged me about these characters is the fact that none of them are given any kind of personality trait to speak of and so it's hard to tell which frog is who making things worse is the fact that they all sound the exact same and so we the audience have no way of telling which frog is who and that makes it harder for anybody to form a connection with any of these characters.

I do like the idea of The Shredder pretending to be a good guy just so that he could win over the trust of the frogs. Which just goes to show you just how conniving and smart that he is and it makes me wonder why we don't see this side of him more in TMNT media since that would open up a whole new realm of story possibilities and it's something that makes him look more like a smart who knows what he;s doing and alot less like a thug who is doing evil things just because there evil here in this episode he has a clear plan and a clear end goal in mind and that makes all the difference.   

I do like the idea of showing the turtles training since it shows that they take being heroes seriously and are always trying to get better at being heroes. My only complaint is the fact that we don't get to see more of them training since that does open itself up for alot more comedy which would fit in with the over the top and rather campy tone and nature of this show and heck we could even see different turtles training just so we could see how each turtle would handle each different situation that's thrown infront of them.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty two minuets and thirteen seconds. Which is pretty much the bog standard running time for an episode of this show to last however I would have liked if this episode was at the very least five minuets longer since it would have allowed you to fully develop the characters of the The Punk Frogs a little bit more and it would have allowed the show makers to fully develop the story a little bit more as well and since this shows entire reason for existing was to sell toys making the frogs more fully developed characters would have also have helped sell toys as well and it really does help that this episode has some really good pacing to it with this episode really just flying by.

So now then since this is an action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty pretty lackluster. Since even tho this episode builds up a fight between The Punk Frogs and the TMNT we don't get to see them fight at all which could have been pretty cool to see and what little action we get can only be described as OK at best in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this wasn't a bad episode since it was a fun episode to watch but at the same time it's quite clearly not this show at it's best either which does make the episode hard to watch in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then 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 very episode earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 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 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.

My SPOILER FREE First Impressions Of The Gotham Knights TV Series

 

Batman is a very hugely popular character and yet for some strange reason Warner Bros. Pictures don't like sing their character in live action TV shows. Well now we have we another new show set within the world of Batman but doesn't actually feature The Dark Knight himself which to me just defeats the purpose of doing a show that's set within the wold of Batman and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FREE first impressions that takes it's name from a video game with the show in question being called simply just "Gotham Knights" enjoy.

The plot of this show is after Bruce Wayne is killed and found out to be Batman his adopted son Turner Hayes is framed for the crime and so he has to team up with an alley of Batman's and also team up with the sons and daughter of the Batman's enemies in order to work who killed Bruce Wayne and why. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty OK at best since it is some fresh and new for the world of Batman however all it does is cheapen the actual character of Bruce Wayne / Batman in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this very episode is Fallon Smythe as Harper Row , Tyler DiChiara as Cullen Row and Oscar Morgan as Turner Hayes. Also starring in this episode is Olivia Rose Keegan as Duela Doe , former Raven's Home star Navia Robinson as Carrie Kelley / Robin , Misha Collins as Harvey Dent , Anna Lore as Stephanie Brown , Rahart Adams as Brody March , K.K. Moggie as Cressida and Fiona Byrne as Commisioner Yindel.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. That is something that's to be expected tho since the acting in a pilot episode is very rarely if ever good as the acting that we'd get in the rest of any given but it doesn't really help that the characters in this show are given no absolutely personality to work with them whatsoever.

For some strange and unknown reason the makers of this show chose to ignore comic book canon by not including the character of Damien Wayne who is Bruce Wayne's actual son. Which to me makes no sense since now you have create a character who is basically Damien Wayne in everything except his name and he even fills the exact same role that Damien Wayne fills so it just makes me wonder why they didn't just use him in the first place since he's not being used in any live action projects so we really do know that Warner Bros Pictures. isn't forcing them not to use him.

Unlike Batwoman this show does have a somewhat solid reason for not having Bruce Wayne / Batman appear in the show. Since Batman wouldn't just leave Gotham City for no reason and so the reason that this shows gives us does work well enough for that character altho at the same time it does make the character look stupid for reasons that I can't go into because of spoilers but once you see it you'll know it but it's at least a much more better reason then what the Batwoman TV show gave us for not including this truly iconic character.

I'm not going to lie here none of this shows main characters are likable at all which works for the characters that are meant to be the villains. It doesn't however work for characters like Turner and Stephanie Brown who are just unlikable characters and so what we are left with is a bunch of unlikable characters none of whom are made out to be even slightly likable in this episode which gives us no characters to route for which is something that you should always have in a story regardless of the medium that it's taking place in. 

I will say that all of the characters in this episode the character of Duela Doe is the most entertaining character. The best way that I can describe her is that she's a cross between The Joker and Harley Quinn since she's just as insane as The Joker and she's just as funny as Harley Quinn which made her scenes all the more entertaining even when she's with the cardboard cutout that is Turner Hayes and she's the one character that I can see being a fan favorite since she is entertaining to watch and is quite easily the best part of this episode.

Now then his episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly forty one minuets and thirty one seconds. Which just isn't long enough for this episode to set up it's world , it's story and all of it's characters and as such this episode really should have been one hour and thirty minuets long since then you;d be able to set everything up and flesh out all of your characters which in turn would make it alot easier for us the audience to form a connection to these characters and it would have given you the chance to make these characters actually likable as well. 

So now then since this is an action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. Altho what let's the action in this episode down is the fact that the editing is so fast paced that you can hardly make out what's going on and the fact that this episode just isn't that bright and so you can barely make out what's going on in this episodes action scene which makes the show look bad in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this show isn't going to last that long I can tell you that right now this is because of the fact that this show is that bad and us that disrespectful to the character of Batman in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.Now then 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 post and since this is only my first impressions I won't be giving this show a rating however if i'm still watching this show when this shows final episodes airs or is released then i'll give this a show review and a rating as well but so far it's not of to very good start at all.

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 Batman fandom wiki page ,the official Arrowverse fandom wiki page , the official Gotham Knights fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very post being the official Gotham Knights fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the great freaking the official Gotham Knights fandom wiki page are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being very fairly freaking high in definition.
