The Addams Family "The Addams Family Tree" Review

 


It's been a good while since I last talked about anything to do with the live action Addams Family with me last talking about anything do with their live action being a full on series review of Wednesday. Well I thought that i'd end that right now by watching an episode of the classic series and reviewing for you all and so then join me as I review the episode that proves that spider's don't always make the best birthday presents with the episode in question being called simply just "The Addams Family Tree" enjoy.

The plot of the episode is after Wednesday and Pugsley get involved in a fight with neighbors kid the Addams clan set out to discover their own family tree. 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 altho I will admit that this episodes plot wasn't that strong of a plot this is despite it really being a very strong idea in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is John Astin as Gomez Addams , the late Carolyn Jones as Morticia Addams and the late Ken Weatherwax as Pugsley Addams. Also starring in this episode is the late Lisa Loring as Wednesday Addams , the late Jackie Coogan as Uncle Fester , the late Ted Cassidy as Lurch , the late Frank Nelson as Cecil B. Pomeroy , Kim Tyler as Harold Pomeroy and Jonathan Hole as Professor Simms.

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 he actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. Which really isn't all that surprising as the acting in the episodes of this show that i've seen have always had good acting in them and as such it only makes sense that this episode would also have some really good acting in it as well with thew acting really being helped by the fact that this episodes script is just so good and so all the cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally.



The show never shied away from mentioning other dead family members but this episode straight up shows us one. Which even for this family is oddly dark and yet because it's The Addams Family it's something that oddly works and because of that you can believe that this family would have a dead family member stuffed it's also something that makes me wonder if they have other family members hung up in their house as they mention having quite alot of family members and so it only stands to reason that they would have at least a few of them hung up somewhere in their mansion be they dead or alive.


This episode also straight up makes Fester out to be someone who is willing to commit and unforgivable crime. Granted he would only be doing it to project the honor of his family and he does get talked out of it but the fact that he was even willing to do it in the first place makes what was once a very childlike character seem like someone who has alot more of an edge to them buy I do like the fact that they whole family is willing to defend their family name in various as it just goes to show you that The Addams Family are a tight-nit family unit and i'd even go as far as to say that The Addams Family is the perfect fictional family unit as well.

I didn't like the fact that we didn't get to see Wednesday and Pugsley at the kids birthday party as the amount of jokes that they could have gotten from that one setting alone would make the whole episode really worthwhile. Granted alot of it would just be the same joke but what would make it funny is seeing how these people who we are told re "normal" and seeing how they would react when these creepy and cooky start acting how they normally would and seeing the "normal" trying to save face and yet also acting weirded out would really just make the whole thing not only worth while but also really funny as well.


There was no really resolution to the story here which I found to be rather odd as this show does usually resolve it's storylines. Yes they do say that the The Addams Family is a great family but we don't really get to see anything of The Addams Family family tree with Thing scaring of the person who was putting their family tree together at the end of the episode  which is a shame as finding out what their family tree is could have been really fun an yet the episode just doesn't give us any kind of resolution to that part of the story at all instead leaving it rather open ended which is something that this show never really does.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty five minuets and thirty four seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for this show but at the same time tho this episode really doesn't have enough there interms of plot to cover that amount of running time and so we get alot of scenes that go nowhere and add nothing to the overall plot of the episode even the party that the kids attend doesn't add to the actual plot of the episode and is something that could have been removed from the plot of the episode but I will admit that this episode really does have some really good pacing to it.


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. However that's also the issue as this episode wasn't all that funny either which does make sense as you can't expect a comedy to have funny episodes every single episode and while there are some funny moments in this episode there are alot more unfunny moment in this episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this episode while not that funny does have a good idea behind that more then makes up for the lack of actually really painfully funny jokes that are in this 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 review and as such that means 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 The Addams Family 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 really wonderful the official The Addams Family fandom wiki page as since all of the images that are currently up and featured / presented to us up and on the really great and really and really truly wonderful on the official The Addams Family fandom wiki page are all really fairly high in quality and as well as them all being all really fairly freaking high in definition.

Worzel Gummidge "A Home Fit For Scarecrows" Review

 


I just love it whenever I get to review an episode of Worzel Gummidge as it really is such a good and wonderful show. As it's been a coupe of weeks since I last an episode of this classic show I thought that i'd take a look at another episode of this classic TV show this going back to it's very first series and so then join me as I review the episode that is really pretty close to being a musical episode with the episode in question being called simply just "A Home Fit For Scarecrows" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is when things start disappearing from the village Jon and Sue have to find Worzel before the law catches up with him. Now then interms if 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 really good with this episodes plot being really entertaining and being filled tom the brim with fun as well as being really engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Jon Pertwee as Worzel Gummidge , Jeremy Austin as John Peters and Charlotte Coleman as Sue Peters. Also starring in this episode is Mike Berry as Mr. Peters , Norman Bird as Mr. Braithwaite , Myrtle Devenish as Mrs. Liversedge , Megs Jenkins as Mrs. Braithwaite , Norman Mitchell as P.C. Parsons , Michael Ripper as Mr. Shepherd and Last Of The Summer Wine star Sarah Thomas as A Waitress.

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 for this show isn't really all the new as this show always had some really good acting within it and alot of that is due to the fact that not only are the actors in this episode a bunch of really good actors but also because of the fact that the script for this episode is just so good and so all the cast have to do is say the words as they are written and a really good performance will come out of them naturally.



What I really loved in this episode is that we got to see what Worzel thinks a house looks like which to me just felt totally in character. With his house being made of a bunch of possibly broken junk with his house having no walls , windows or doors which does seem oddly in character for Worzel as he wouldn't really know what a house looks like and plus seeing his house is made up of a bunch of junk is just a very funny sight to look at and heck even when he does try to get actual furniture from around the village he still doesn't built what an actual house looks like which only add to the charm of this character. 


In this episode Jon states that Worzel doesn't get blamed for anything that goes wrong in the farm he and Sue Do. Yet since this is the shows second ever episode all you have to do is look back at the previous episode to see that both statements are false as Worzel wasn't blamed for what happened in the previous episode and nether was Jon and Sue now it is possible that there was a time skip inbetween episodes one and two and because of that Jon and Sue did start getting the blame alot more often but based of off what was actually seen we know that that's not true and it makes me wonder as to why this continuity error was included in the final cut of the episode.

This is also the episode that introduces the idea of Worzel having multiple heads for each aspect of his personality. I really do like this idea as it is a fun idea and it does allow for a alot of funny and unique moments that will help this show stand out against all of the other kids shows out their and as alot of other kids found the idea of him changing his head at will quite scary it also makes the show pretty creepy which is something that I really love as alot of kids really do like to scared and that makes me wonder why kids TV shows today are afraid to scare it's kid audience and instead give them the safest and un-scariest thing possible. 


I guess you could say that this episode is also a musical episode as the episode does indeed feature a musical number. The song in question I believe is called "Worzel's Song" or at least that's what it was called when it was rerecorded and released as part of a Worzel Gummidge themed album the song in question isn't a bad song as all it is Worzel teaching Jon and Sue his own scarecrow language but the issue is that it isn't a good song either as it's a really short song that isn't really that well written and due to the fact that the kid actors can barely sing it isn't that well sung either but I will give the song this it is one heck of a catchy song.

Now then while I cannot for the absolutely live of me remember whatever this episodes grand total running time even was I do know for a fact that this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty four minuets. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for this show and to this episodes credit it does make the most of that running time but at the same time I would have liked it if this episode was a tad bit longer just because i was having such a fun time with this episode but if this episode was longer then it would be stretching an already thin story even thinner and I will admit that this episode really does have some really good pacing to it.


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 really good. With this episode having some really cute and funny moments all of which feel very in line with what these characters would normally say and how these characters would normally act especially how these characters have been presented to us thus far in this show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Overall this was a really fun episode and another great episode in this great show and given the Doctor Who connection that this show has i'm surprised that this show isn't talked about alot more as it is a really good show and this is a really good episode as well 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 thing that are in this very episode in this very review that means tat 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 as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . Uk , Wikipedia 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 really wonderful Google Images as since all of the images that are currently up and featured / presented to us up and on the really great and really and truly wonderful on Google Images are all really fairly high in quality and as well as them all being all really fairly freaking high in definition.

Sailor Moon 1994 TV Pilot Review

 


For every pilot episode that does somehow manage to spawn a future TV series there are dozens that don't. With even more failing to even make it to air in the first place as is the case with the pilot that i'm about to review for you all today heck for many decades this pilot was even thought to be lost forever and nothing more then a myth that was until 2022 when Youtuber Ray Mona did a two part video just about the pilot and shockingly actually got permission to upload the full pilot of this truly weird show and so then join me as I review the pilot episode of a show that thankfully never even made it to series with the show in question being called simply just "Sailor Moon" enjoy.

I really do wish that I could tell you what the actual plot of this pilot episode even was but the pilot itself has no plot to speak off. I'm not kidding either when I say that as during the whole ten minuets that this pilot lasts there's nothing regarding an actual story sure there's something about a school dance but that gets dropped pretty quickly for the girls to be able to fly off into space to defend Jupiter for no reason and this is the first of the pilots many problems as it has no plot to speak and so the pilot is robbed of a reason for exiting in my freaking opinions anyways / at lesst. 


Starring in this episode is Stephanie Dicker as Victoria / Sailor Moon and Melinda "Mindy" Cowan as Sailor Mercury. Also starring in this episode is Danny "Dani" DeLacey as Sailor Mars , Tami-Adrian George as Sailor Jupiter , She-Ra: Princess Of Power star Melendy Britt as The Voice Of Luna , Batman: The Animated Series star Adrienne Barbeau as Queen Serenity and Queen Beryl and Patricia Alice Albrecht as The Narrator.

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 pretty OK at best. As the acting in the live action segments was on par with the acting in Power Rangers and the acting that we got in the animated segments was really alot better then what it really had any right to be but it doesn't help that this episodes script was just flat out bad with one of the characters having alot of personality to begin with.



Doing the animation as far as I can tell is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Toonmakers. 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 with this episodes animation being very choppy in alot of places which just makes the whole animated part of the episode come across as being really rather cheap looking.


Saban and those involved with making this show chose to go the Power Rangers route when it came to adapting Sailor Moon. Except instead of filming new American live action footage and dub over live action action scenes they instead chose to make this show an animation and live action hybrid show with the scenes in earth being done in love action and all of the scenes in spaces and the episodes action scenes being done in animation which is just very jarring and really isn't the right approach to take with Sailor Moon granted the Power Rangers approach wouldn't work with Sailor Moon anyway in which case they should have either chosen to just do it in fully live action or to just it in animation but not both.

The Power Rangers approach to making a show was a very common thing for Saban to do in the early nineties. With alot of their shows from Masked Rider to Beetleborgs all using that exact same approach however both of those shows are adapted from properties where that kind of approach is very doable this show however isn't as you can quite clearly see the heroes faces all the time and so it would be impossible for this kind of show making to work with Sailor Moon and where as Power Rangers fully embraced it's cheesiness this episode doesn't which oddly makes it more fun to watch as everything is being played straight and while Saban didn't work on this pilot it's not hard to see their influence all over this pilot episode. 


I have to give thanks for Youtuber Ray Mona for going to the lengths that she went to in order to find this lost piece of media. However not only did she find the episode itself which is still really commendable she also managed to find out who was in the episode with their still being some unknown names like for example we still don't know who played Prince Darian and Sailor Venus which means they could be some very well known actors and actresses and we wouldn't know and while I can see why they wouldn't want it known that they starred in this pilot as it is that bad it would still be pretty cool to have a complete cast list for this episode.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly ten minuets and seventeen seconds. Which even for a pilot episode is still a really short amount of time and while i'm sure that this pilot would have expanded upon if the show went to series as it is all it does is leave us with a really rushed episode where things move at such a fast pace that it doesn't leave us long to get a good sense of who these characters are and what their personalities are both which are things that could have been fixed if the pilot was a standerd twenty two minuets long and I will say that this episode has some really bad pacing to it as well.


So now then as this is an action episode that means that I gave 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. With this episodes action being the kind of action that you'd expect to see in a kid nineties animated kids TV show and really nothing more then that which does make the action look pretty dated but it also makes the action look really creative as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this show is so bad that it makes the Japanese live action Sailor Moon TV show look good by comparison and that show really isn't all that good either at all 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 1.5 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 Sailor Moon fandom wiki page , the official Power Rangers fandom wiki page , Wikipedia 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 really wonderful Google Images as since all of the images that are currently up and featured / presented to us up and on the really great and really wonderful on Google Images are all really fairly high in quality and as well as them all being all really fairly freaking high in definition.

My First Impressions Of Tiny Toons Looniversity


We are living in an age where nostalgia rules everything where everything that we find nostalgic is being brought back in someway shape or form. Well the latest revival has just now hit both Max and Cartoon Network and as i'm devoting both today and a post in the future to reviewing the whole ten episodes of this show and so then join me as I give you my first impressions of the show that's tiny toony but not very looney with the show in question being called simply just "Tiny Toons Looniversity" enjoy.

The plot of this show is the next generation of Looney Tunes lead by Babs , Buster , Plucky , Hampton and Sweetie all learn to be cartoon characters from the legendary Looney Tunes characters like Bugs and Daffy among others. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very 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 show was in all honesty not that bad with this shows plot being simple but delightfully so in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in these episodes is Ashleigh Crystal Hairston as Babs Bunny and Eric Bauza as Buster Bunny / Ruth Less and Daffy Duck. Also starring in these episodes is David Errigo Jr. as Plucky Duck and Hamton J. Pig , Tessa Netting as Sweetie Bird , Jeff Bergman as Bugs Bunny / Vanessa Bunny, Candi Milo as Granny and Montana Max , Fred Tatasciore as Taz / Gepetto Stronzetti and Yosemite Sam , Natalie Palamides as Shirley The Loon , Marieve Herington as Fifi La Fume , Betsy Sodaro as Dizzy Devil and  Mel Blanc as Little Beeper

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / resented to us in these first five 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 first five episodes was in all honesty alot better then what I thought that it would be. With all of this shows actors turning in some really good performances in these first five episodes which shouldn't be that much of a surprise as alot of this shows cast are a bunch of really good actors and actresses with alot f them also reprising their roles from other Looney Tunes products.



Doing the animation for these first five episodes is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Snipple Animation. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these first five episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that thew actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these first five episodes was in all honestly alot better then what that it would be with this shows animation being really stunning to look at with all of the characters having some really nice and fluid movements to them as well.


I'm one of the many people that watched the leaked and unfinished version of the shows fifth episode back when it first leaked back in January. I have to say that watching the leaked episode when compared to watching the final finished episode wasn't that big a of difference as they only had a few scenes to add in the leaked episode along with all of the bells and whistles and watching the leaked episode did at least lower my expectations for the show as the show itself is only a little bit better then the leaked episode.

There's no way that I can talk about this show and not talk about the change in relationship between Buster and Babs. As they've gone from being good friends in the original show to being twins in this show which makes no sense as their whole joke was the fact that despite having the same last name there were in fact not related hence the no relation joke that they used to do in the original show and by making them siblings it takes away one of the original shows greatest running jokes and replaces it with nothing whatsoever.


For some reason they made Buster and Plucky rivals in this show which is weird because in the original show they ere friends. With Buster even helping Plucky out from time to time the duo even taking part in several adventures together thus making them quite clearly friends and so it really doesn't make sense for them be rivals here even more so when you take into account that they aren't competing for anything which means that it just comes across as the two acting antagonistic towards each other for no reason other then the makers of this show wanting it to be different from the original show in every single way possible.

Now then thee first five episode has / had an exact grand total running time of no longer then twenty two minuets. Which does seem to the bog standard running time for this show with episodes six through ten also having a very similar running time and I will admit that it felt good to see a show that's aimed at kids be twenty two minuets long instead of having just to eleven minuet episodes edited together and it does help that this format of a running time really does suit this show as it allows the stories and the characters to breath and feel more organic then what they already are and I will admit that each of these first five episodes do have some really good pacing to them.


So now then as this is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in these first five episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in these first five episodes was in al honesty pretty bad. With their not really being any good jokes in the vast majority of these first five episodes and alot of the jokes that they do have just aren't that funny which is a shame because the original show was gut bustingly funny but that's what you get when you dont bring back the original shows creative team in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall just based of these first five episodes this show just isn't that good but there is potential there to be a good show but so far the show just isn't reaching up to that potential 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 ate in these first five episodes in this very post and since this is only my first impressions I won't be giving this show a rating as i'm already planning to finish the rest of this shows first ten episodes and then and only then will I review the show as a whole and then give it a proper rating.

Now then as or 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 Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page , the official Looney Tunes 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 Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.

I Am Groot TV Series Season Two SPOILER FILLED Review

 


To say that Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been mostly underwhelming thus far would be an understatement. However we now have a new entry into this phase with this one actually being pretty good but still somewhat of a let down from it's first season with this show not even being promoted all that much from either Marvel or Disney themselves and then join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED review the entire second season of the show that lets face it alot of us forgot was even coming with the show in question being called simply just "I Am Groot" enjoy.

As this is an ethology show where each episode has it's own plot this show really doesn't have a plot of it's own to talk about. I will say tho that out of the plots from this second season the best one for me was episode 3 entitled "Groot's Snow Day" just due to how insane the plot of that episode was it oddly reminded me of Rugrats how in that show the kids would go these make believe adventures and make every day things seem like big challenges well that was this episode for me with the episodes plot being so ridiculous and out there that I couldn't help but fall in love it with the episodes plot being nothing more then lighthearted fun but in a good way and also being very entertaining and engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.  


Starring in this show is Vin Diesel as Baby Groot , Dee Bradley Baker as Terma Baby Bird , Terma Mama Bird and Additional Voices and Fred Tatasciore as Additional Voices. There are other cast members in this season of the show but as one or maybe even both of them might be classified as SPOILERS i'm not going to be mentioning them here but I will say that one of them is exactly who you'd think it would be and the other one is one that you won't be expecting and I do wish that this show would have more cast members in it just because it would be cool tom see Baby Groot interacting with more characters.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very series 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 series was in all honesty really good. With all of the cast for this season turning in some really good performances which isn't that surprising as this shows voice cast is made up of mostly really good voice actors and Vin Diesel has been voicing this character since technically 2014 and so would know what kind of performance would best suit that character in any given situation.


Doing the animation for this series is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Perception and Trixter. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very series well hen in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very series was in all honesty really good with this series animation being breathtakingly beautiful to look at times with this series animation really being alot better then the animation in slot of the movies that came out just this past year.

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




As I said there were two actors that I didn't credit earlier on in this review with those actors being Bradley Cooper as Rocket and Jeffrey Wright as Uatu / The Watcher. With Jeffery Wright actually playing a major role in this series fifth and final episode and while he is playing a more comical take on the character it is interesting to see the amount of ways that this character can be taken with them all making sense for that character and while it's not really said if this take on the character has already gone through the events of What If? just the fact that he appears in this show at all is more then enough to make me wonder if the character is going to laying a much more bigger role in Phase Five then what any of us really did think would at first thought would even be the case.

The fact that both Disney and Marvel for that matter did so little marketing for this show to me just seems lazy. As all they did was release a trailer and two posters for the show and that was it and even then the trailer was released from what I remember weeks ago which isn't going to enough to get people to watch this show as alot of people won't know about this show even being back or like me will just straight up forget that the show was even coming back either way they've dropped the ball with this show marketing wise and because of that I won't blame any of you if you didn't know that this show was back with new episodes.


While I do love the short film format that this show has been taking I wouldn't mind it if this show did decide to extend its running time to twenty two minuet. As alot of this series stories would have made for great one of episodes with the episode "Groot Noses Around" being a prime example of that as they could have alot of more with all of the things that Baby Groot is smelling for the first time and while the joke of him being disgusted by certain smells and loving other smells might get old fast if you space those jokes out you'd have a rather fun story for what could possibly be a really fun filled show that features a character that alot of people really love and enjoy seeing.

Now then each episode of this series an exact grand total running being well under five minuets for each episode. Which is great for some stories as some stories don't really have alot of story for anything longer then that but then there are stories like "Groot And The Great Prophecy" that suffer because of how short they are and would have benefited greatly from having a much more longer running time s that story has more then story to cover a much longer running and by having a longer running time it would also open itself to alot more jokes as well which would ultimately really help the episode in the long run of things in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now then as 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 series well then in all honesty I in ll honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very series was in all honesty really good with this series having alot of really good jokes. With the episode " Groot's Sweet Tooth" being perhaps the funniest episode of the whole series as seeing Baby Groot just get frustrated that he can't find money to get some Ice Cream is a simple enough joke that it's always going to work in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

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


Overall while this series was a bit of step down when compared to this shows first series it was still a hugely entertaining series and is an underrated Marvel Studios TV Series in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all pf the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very series in this very review and as such that means that this very series 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 Marvel Cinematic Universe 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 Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the really great freaking the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page are all of course really fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as them all really being very fairly freaking high in definition.

Tiny Toon Adventures "A Quack In The Quarks" Review


We are now less then a few short days away from the release of Tiny Toons Looniversity with the show set to premier it's first ten episodes this Friday on Max and the following day on Cartoon Network. As such you all just knew that I had to produce a tie in review and well I couldn't do the first episode of the original show as that's already been done and i've already done the movie so that only left me one of the episodes to review and so then join me as I review the episode that is a really very loose parody of the Star Wars franchise with the episode in question being called simply just "A Quack In The Quarks" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is when his show boating gets him kidnapped by aliens who want him to defeat an evil tyrant it's up to Babs , Buster and Hampton to rescue Plucky and save Planet X before it's far to late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the 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 altho I will admit that this episodes was also very rather on the thin side of things as well but it was still a very rather entertaining and engaging plot as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is voice acting legend Joe Alaskey as Plucky Duck and the Director and voice acting legend Charlie Adler as Buster Bunny and Slate Guy. Also starring in this episode is voice acting legend Tress MacNeille as Babs Bunny , voice acting legend Don Messick as Hamton Pig ,voice acting legend Frank Welker as Chewcudda , Elder and a Computer , voice acting and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles legend Rob Paulsen as Frank , voice acting legend Jeff Bergman as Foghorn Leghorn and Duck Vader and Carol Kane as Ollie.

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 really shouldn't be that much of a surprise as this episodes cast is made up of  bunch of really good voice actors and actresses and it just goes to show that for this shows early run they always had really good acting in it with this episodes script being really good and so all the cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written and boom a good performance will come out of them really naturally.



Doing the animation for this episode is the legends and the greats that are currently over at AKOM Productions Co. 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 thought / felt that the actual animation thats actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good with this episodes animation being more then up the already high standard of the shows quality of animation and heck i'd even go as far as to say that this episodes animation is movie quality as it's that good animation wise.


What I really loved is the fact that this film is loose parody of Star Wars with several of the shows main characters even dressing up like Star Wars characters. What would have made this parody even funnier was if the whole entire episode was just one big parody of a Star Wars movie think what Family Guy did but only better and funnier and heck you could even have the characters comment on the Star Wars fanbase as a whole and compare them to their own fanbase which given that this show is executive produced by Steven Spielberg that's something that they very easily could have done if they it's something that they really wanted to do.

I don't really like Plucky as the main character in this episode just because to me he's a character that's better suited for being a recurring character. As his personality makes him come across as being a really unlikable main character with him being very self involved so much so that it stops being funny and starts being annoying I get it he's meant to be the Tiny Toons version of Daffy Duck but even he wasn't always that selfish and that's something that should have been done with Plucky as while he is indeed a very funny character he's also a character that works best when he's not the main focus point of the episode. 


This episode didn't just break the fourth wall it took a sledgehammer to it which was something that I really did like. As it makes sense in the world as the characters in Tiny Toon Adventures are all fully aware of the fact that they are all cartoon characters and heck even the shows first episode dealt with the characters being created ad so to me it makes sense that they would break the fourth wall and while not alot of the fourth wall breaks in this episode are actually funny they are pretty clever which does make them feel fresh and unique I just wish that they commented on the fact that Duck Vader s quite literally a rip off of Darth Vader.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time  of exactly twenty minuets and fifty two seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd for an episode of this show to have and Im will admit that this episode really does take full advantage of it's running time and while I would have liked it if this episode was a tad bit longer just so some of the guest characters could be fully fleshed out a bit if they did stretch this episode out even by just a couple of minuets then they'd be stretching an already thinly drawn story even thinner and I will admit that this episode does have some fairly solid pacing to it tho as well.


So now then as this is a comedy show 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. While this episode isn't as funny as the first episode was it was still a really funny episode that had a surprising adult joke which really did catch me of guard as it was a really funny joke that came out of nowhere and it's a joke that will go over alot of kids heads as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall Tiny Toons Looniversity has alot of live up and if the leaked episode of the shows fifth episode is anything to go by then we are in for one heck of a bumpy ride as we make our way back tom Acme Looniversity 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 thing 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 Star Wars fandom wiki page , the official Tiny Toon Adventures 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 Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the great freaking the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page are all really fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as them all really being very fairly freaking high in definition.

Batman: Return Of The Caped Crusaders Film Review

 


I had such a good time watching and then reviewing Batman Vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that it got me thinking about another campy version of Batman. That being the 1966 version and while it would have been super easy for me to pick out a couple of episodes and do a review of them I thought that i'd talk about the animated reunion movie that not alot of people seem to be talking about anymore and so then join me as I review the film that sees the dynamic duo take on really there biggest threat ever yet with the film in question being called simply just "Batman: Return Of The Caped Crusaders" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when The Catwoman , The Penguin , The Joker and the Riddler reunite and start a scheme to duplicate the entire world it's up to Batman and Robin to stop them 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 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 really fun and goofy as all heck with this films plot really being the type of plot that you'd expect to find in an episode of the classic Batman TV show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Adam West as Bruce Wayne / Batman , Burt Ward as Dick Grayson / Robin and Julie Newmar as Catwoman. Also starring in this film is Jeff Bergman as The Joker and The Announcer , William Salyers as Oswald Copplepot / The Penguin , Wally Wingert as Edward Nygma / The Riddler , Jim Ward as Commissioner James Gordon , Steven Weber as Alfred Pennyworth , Thomas Lennon as Chief Miles O'Hara and Warden Crichton , Lynne Marie Stewart as Aunt Harriet Cooper and Sirena Irwin as Miranda Moore.

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 that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with this films acting being alot better then what it really had right to be. As nobody really expected good acting from a 1960's Batman reunion my only gripe is alot of the actors that they got to replace certain actors don't sound enough like the original character which is something that was very distracting.



Doing the animation for this film was the legends and the greats that are currently over at Digital Emation, INC. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation 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 animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty alot better then what it really had any right to be but that just goes to show that for all those making this film that this wasn't just a cash grab of a film as alot of people working on this film would have been fans of the show and so they put in their best work as they would be working on something that meant alot to them growing up as children.


While this film does borrow a little bit from the 1966 Batman movie it does enough to make alot of changes that you can forgive it. As just like with the 1966 Batman film the villains of this film are The Riddler , The Penguin , The Joker and The Catwoman however tho instead of having be allies all throughout the film like they did the 1966 film this film actually shows them betraying one of there own which is something that a villain would do and it's that little change that makes all the difference as it shows that the makers of this film have a good understanding of who these villains are as they are people who have huge ego's and would thus not be able to work on the same team as each other for very long.

This film does make one change that really did bug me ans that's the fact that instead of having the entrance and exit to the Batcave be an actual cave the entrance and exit tot eh batcave in this film is instead ramp. Which for some unknown reason really did bug the heck out of me yes it makes all the more cool but if your doing something that set in a world that's already be established then changes to already established things shouldn't be made as the fan will pick up on something like that and while there are some changes made to the inside of the batcave itself it mostly looks like it did in the classic Batman TV show.


The makers of this film must have been really huge fans of the show because they really nailed the tone of the show down perfectly. With this film having those really over the top campy moments that made the show so much fun to watch along with having all of the things that we loved from the show from the over the top death traps to Robin learning a life lesson for no reason it's all in here and it's those things that make this film feel alot more like a passion project as only fans of the original show would include those things and know what it is that made them work and what still makes them work to this very day instead of having them just thrown in their for no apparent rhyme or reason.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and eighteen minuets and seventeen seconds. Which was a tad bit on the long side for this film as this film does repeat itself alot of the time which is a shame because this film is hugely entertaining and I wouldn't have minded of this film was at the very least one hour and thirty minuets but I would always take a shorter film that has a story that fits it's running time perfectly then have a longer film that just ends up repeating alot of scenes because it has to pad out it's running time but with that said however this film does have some really good pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is an action film that means that I have tom 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 really good and was alot better then what I remember it being. As this films action was just as fun if not more fun , crazy and over the top then the action that we got in the show and it's during this film action scenes that the animation really does come to life in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this was a really fun filled that all Batman bat-fans really should check out and heck i'd even recommend showing this film to young kids to try and get them into Batman as this film is just that 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 this very film in this very review and as such that means that this very film really does earn 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 Batman 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 the great Google Images are really all fairly high in quality and as them all really being really being fairly freaking high in definition.
