Hell In A Cell 2021 SPOILER FREE!!!!!!!!!! Review

 

WWE fans when I did the Raw go home show for this years Hell In A Cell I did so with some idea that I would also be reviewing this years Hell In A Cell and well i'm a man of my word. As such WWE fans i'm left with no choice but to review the latest version of a show that i've in all honesty never seen before and so join me as I review the 2021 WWE PPV that is called simply just "Hell In A Cell" enjoy this spoiler free review everyone.

Now I will admit that while I have been watching Raw I haven't been watching Smackdown and so I don't know half of the storylines that are going on in this show. Altho I will admit that the RAW storylines are advanced nicely with there being some twists and turns that not only make sense but also open the doors for other things to happen in the future should the WWE decide to pursue those storylines that is. 

Now then believe it or not everyone but this event is actually kind of history making since this PPV is the last PPV to be hosted in the WWE Thunderdome. Since the next PPV which is Money In The Bank is going to be shown in front of a live crowd and I have to say that given the current state of Raw maybe having a live crowd might not be a good thing since Raw has been pretty bad recently and the WWE crowd will straight up tell you how bad your show is currently when Raw returns to being in front of a live crown in a few weeks time.

I will be sad to see the WWE Thunderdome go since the set does indeed really good and the WWE could get creative with the visuals. Which is something that they simply cannot do with a live crowd but at the same time wrestling really does need to be seen in front of a live crowd since the audience is basically another part of the show and the WWE has sadly missed having that live crowd since it adds something to the show.

For some reason even tho Roman vs Rey was booked for this event it was moved to Smackdown which shouldn't have been the case at all. Simply because that match is PPV quality and when you give that match away for free then your robbing the PPV that the match was set to take place on the chance of having a good match and your not going to make any money because of the fact that alot of people won't buy this event because of the fact that one of the better matches has already taken place of free TV.

I will very fully admit that I was shocked at how good the Bayley vs Bianca Belair Hell In A Cell match was. Simply because i've not seen these two wrestle in a long time and so I was shocked at how good these two women were wrestling in this match and they made each other look so freaking strong neither woman came out of that match looking weak because they both took insane amounts of offense and they both gave out insane amounts of offense.

There honestly weren't that many botches in this entire PPV which makes the few botches that there are in this PPV all the more funny. Simply because they stand out like a sore thumb like for example the Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte matches briefly turns into a triple threat match when Charlotte decides to kick / beat the living hell out of the invisible man / the invisible woman and the other botch that I personally saw might not even be botch but Bayley jumps a split second to early when Bianca Belair goes for a shoulder tackle in the corner.

Now thankfully they do cut on the Alexa Bliss magic stuff which i'll admit is getting out of hand but they still don't explain how in the hell that she can mind control people. However that is the least of this shows problems since l just said there possibly a few botches in this PPV event and there are matches should have been given more time like for example the Alexa Bliss vs Shayna Baszler and the Sami Zayn vs Kevin Owens match since all four of those wrestlers can wrestle a decent match but there just not given enough times plus the match order seemed of to me since I personally would have started with Alexa Bliss vs Shayna Baszler and have had Bayley vs Bianca Belair be / go on second to last since then you could have had two solid Hell In A Cell matches take place back to back and since there's no live crowd you won't wouldn't have had to worry about the crowd getting bored or tired . worn out.

This PPV event has a total running time of two hours and forty nine minuets and twenty two seconds which if i'm being honest was a bit on the long side. Simply because the matches that should have gone on longer simply didn't and some of the matches that went on longer nine times out of ten really didn't need to be that long and not helping things is the fact that the paving for nearly all of the matches felt a little bit of for some unknown reason which I simply cannot explain due to the fact that I can't really explain it.

Now then boys and girls this event is a wrestling PPV even after all and so that means that I have to actually talk about the wrestling that's featured / presented to us in this actual wrestling PPV event and well if i'm being honest alot of the matches that were featured / presented to us in this wrestling PPV event were really good. Yes there is bad ending which doesn't make any kind of sense whatsoever because it comes out of nowhere but even so that bad ending didn't hurt the overall quality of the match that that bad ending is in and hell id even go as far to say that the best match in this entire card for me at least was the Bayley vs Bianca Belair Hell In A Cell match.

Overall this was a fairly decent PPV but having one good PPV event doesn't make up for the ton of bad episodes of WWE Monday Night Raw tho it just makes this particular WWE PPV event decent at best which for current WWE decent is freaking fantastic. Now then since i've just this second finished talking about ll of the good things and as well as all of the bad things that are in this particular WWE PPV event that means that this particular WWE PPV event gets a solid 6.5 out of 10 from this WWE fan.

As for where I got all of the mages that I used in this very / particular review well then boys and girls and ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I used in this very / particular review from the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page , Wikipedia and Google Images. With my personal preferred website to use to get images from for this very / particular review being Google Images simply because Google Images had actual images from this WWE PPV event and yes the above poster is a hint that I might cover Money In The Bank 2021 I just had to use the Money In The Bank 2020 poster because there's no poster for Money In The bank 2021 out there just right yet / now.

Batman: The Long Halloween Part One Film SPOILER FREE!!!!!!!!! Review

 

Batman fans the film that i'm going to be reviewing for you all today is a film that I in all honesty wasn't expecting to be available until Tuesday. However to my surprise and to my shock when I logged online this evening (yes i'm writing this review on Saturday evening deal with it) I saw that the film had become available to watch online and so join me as I review the first film in a two part Batman film with this film in question being called simply just "Batman: The Long Halloween Part One" and yes this review will be 100%  SPOILER FREE enjoy.

The plot of this film is there is a serial killer going around killing people on various holidays and it's up Batman , Harvey Dent and James / Jim Gordon to find out who is killing all of these people before the next murder from this person happens. In terms of what I thought about the plot of this film in all honesty I thought that the plot of this film was OK at best which I guess makes sense since this is a two part film but at the same time the plot for the first part of any two part film still needs to be an actually good plot and not something that like I said is OK at best.

Starring in this film is Jensen Ackles as Bruce Wayne / Batman and the late and always great Naya Rivera as Selina Kyle / Catwoman. Also starring in this film is Josh Duhamel as Harvey Dent , Billy Burke as James Gordon , Titus Welliver as Carmine Falcone , David Dastmalchian as Julian Day / Calendar Man , Troy Baker as The Joker , Amy Landecker as Barbara Gordon , Julie Nathanson as Gilda Dent , Jack Quaid as Alberto Falcone , Fred Tatasciore as Solomon Grundy , Alastair Duncan as Alfred Pennyworth and Jim Pirri as Sal Maroni.

Now then boys and girls in terms of what I personally thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this film in all honesty the acting that's featured / presented in this film was in all freaking honesty really good. Which shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone since the acting in pretty much every single direct to DVD DC Comics animated film is always really good and so it's only naturel that the acting in this film is also in my humble and very honest opinion anyways / at least really good as well.

Doing the animation for this film is Studio Grida who worked on Justice Society: World War II and Superman: Man Of Tomorrow. Now then in terms of what I thought about the animation that's featured / presented to us in this film in all honesty the animation that's featured / presented to us in this film was really freaking good with all of the characters having some really nice and fluid movements and the backgrounds looked really freaking good as well however and yes there is a however I really didn't like the really thick lines that they gave the characters as I personally found it to be very freaking distracting. 

Now then for those of you that either don't now or you didn't care or even you just straight didn't even realise but this is only the second ever two part animated film with the first two part Batman direct to DVD DC Comics animated film being Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. This was in all honesty something that I didn't even think about until I was doing research for this review and I honestly couldn't believe it since Honestly believed in my heart of hearts that there had been more two direct to DVD DC Comics animated Batman films but nope there's just these two films and I hope that there's more of these to come since Batman as a character could really benefit from the two part film structure / idea with the first part of the two part film being about setting whatever the mystery up and setting up all of characters while part two could be about solving whatever the actually mystery of this two part film was.

Naturally tho not every single Batman film needs or even should / deserves to be a two part film since you'd need a strong enough story to support both films which as I mentioned at the start of this review sadly isn't the case for this particular film. Plus like every single two part film this film has the issue of it just being an hour and half long trailer for Part Two which is always going to be a problem for every single two part film.

In all honesty I don't really see why this film needed to be a two part film since you very well could have told the entire story of both parts of this overall story in this one film. Yes some stuff from the comics would have had to have been cut out but that's going to happen with any adaptation of any story be it that story come from a comic book or not and as long you keep the spirit of the original story intact and you tell a good story then comic book fans myself included would have been left very happy indeed.

This film has a grand total running time of one hour and twenty five minuets and thirty six seconds and well I personally felt that that running time was the right amount of time for this film. Since there really wasn't enough there in terms of story or characters or anything else to cover anything even close to two hours and heck the film even struggled to reach the one hour and thirty minuet and thirty six second mark which is another reason as to why this story didn't need two films in order to tell it since it's a story that you could and even in this case should have told this story in one film instead of getting greedy and spreading it out across two films.

Now then boys and girls this film is an action film after all and so that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's / that is featured / presented to us in the actual film itself and well to my surprise and to my shock there was very little actual action in this film. Which given that this is a two part film does make alot of sense but at the same time the action in this film is so good that it leaves you wondering why there aren't more action scenes / sequences in this film.

Overall I cant say that this film is the worst Batman live action or not or theatrically released because it' really not but at the same time it's clearly not one of the better Batman films either which is a shame because the plot of this film and the idea behind this film is interesting it just needed that extra something to make it something other then just an average film. Now then since i've talked about / spoken about both of the good and as well as both of the bad things that are in his film in this very review that means that I give this film a grand total of a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

As for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well / now then boys and girls I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Scooby-Doo fandom wiki page , the official Batman fandom wiki page , the official Batman The Animated Series fandom wiki page and from Google Images. With my personal preferred website to use to get images from this fil being Google Images simply just / simply due to the fact that Google Images actually had images from this film up on Google Images which sadly wasn't the case for the official Batman fandom wiki page which is a shame because all of the images that I personally used that I got from the official batman fandom wiki page were all fairly high quality and as as well as being fairly high definition  and yes I used "other methods" in order to see this film and no I do not recommend using "other methods to watch any film as you should always watch a film legally.

WWE Raw June 14th 2021 Review

 

WWE fans the last time I reviewed an episode of Raw was all the way back in January and well with a certain return being hyped up to all heck you just know that I had to take a look at this episode and well this episode was certainly something. I will straight up agree with alot of people that Raw is going down the tube right now because yikes was this episode pretty bad and so join me as I review the June 14th 2021 episode of "Raw" enjoy.

Honestly guys and girls whenever I write a review no matter what the review is for I always try and find some good things to talk about in bad products and I try to find some bad things to talk about in good products and well this one was pretty hard to find some good things to talk about it. This is because there was so much bad things in this episode so much so that it wouldn't surprise me if Vince McMahon tore up the script the day of the show.

 

For those wondering yes they do continue the Alexa Bliss and Shayna Baszler stuff from last week and while I personally don't mind the horror stuff that they are clearly going for with Alexa Bliss. The stuff that they are doing with Alexa Bliss has to also make sense and well the last time that we see Alexa Bliss on this episode of raw makes no sense and it makes hard for anyone to get excited for the Alexa Bliss vs Shayna Baszler  at Hell In A Cell this Sunday.

In all honesty the reason why I didn't mention what the storyline for this episode of raw is it's because there are no good storylines going on on Raw right now. Which is a shame because Raw is the flagship show of the WWE and so you'd think that there would be some effort thrown into giving us at least ONE good story but apparently even that is to much for the creative team that is currently working on Raw.

One thing I noticed very freaking quickly is that the first two matches have somebody interfere in the match. Now having someone interfere in a match is a solid idea if it's spaced out but here it happens in the first two matches and making things worse is that the second interference didn't really need to happen during the actual match it could have happened after the match and it would have had the exact same impact.

Now the very thing that made me want to review this episode of Raw was the fact that Eva Marie was due to return and nobody had any idea if she was going to be a wrestler or a manager and well after this episode we still don't know if she's going to be a wrestler. Since even tho Eva Marie does come out dressed to compete she has her friend Piper Niven / Viper wrestle Naomi for her which isn't a bad idea since it makes Eva Marie comes across as heel.

However what makes this entire segment stupid as all heck is the fact the WWE Raw commentary team apparently don't know who Piper Niven / Viper even is. Now granted WWE NXT UK isn't that big in America however what was big was the Mae Yung Classic and Piper Niven / Viper took part in the first ever Mae Young Classic and so the WWE raw commentary team should have known who Piper Niven / Viper even was.

Now I won't lie and say that everything that's in this show is bad because that honestly isn't the case since there are some very entertaining matches and some very entertaining backstage segments. However even some of those backstage segments are pointless like for example we don't need to see Natalya and Tamina brawling with Dana Brooke and Mandy Rose for literally no reason whatsoever because it builds up to nothing in this episode of raw and it's building up to nothing for this Sunday's Hell In A Cell 2021 WWE PPV and so it was a pointless segment.

This episode of WWE Raw had a grand total running time of two hours and five minuets and six seconds and while the overall show is pretty bad the running time was actually one of the things that I liked about this episode. Since everything flowed nicely and so it didn't really feel that long at all in my opinion anyways / at least and if anything this episode actually felt short which is odd because there are ten wrestling matches in this episode of WWE Raw with at least two of them lasting close to twenty minuets.

Now then boys and girls since this is a wrestling show after all and there is actual wrestling on this show that does infact means that I have to actually talk about the actual wrestling that's featured / presented to us on this very show and well if i'm being really freaking honest here the wrestling that's featured on this very show is very mixed bag. Since there are some genuinely good matches like The New Day vs RK-Bro and Drew McIntyre vs Aj Styles and Drew McIntyre & The Viking Raiders vs Bobby Lashley , AJ Styles & Omos. There are also alot of bad matches with guys like Jeff Hardy who just cannot move as fast as he once could and when you put him in a match against John Morrison a guy who you know can always deliver a good performance it brings the overall quality of the match down in my opinion and out of the three four women's match only Rhea Ripley vs Asuka was the only good one in my opinion since the rest are either bad or just finished way before they freaking naturally should have done in my opinion anyways / at least.

Overall this was a really bad final build episode of Raw since yeah it really doesn't get me excited for Hell In A Cell at all which given the match card for Hell In A Cell 2021 really shouldn't be the case at all in my opinion. Now then boys and girls i've talked about the good things that are in this very episode of WWE Raw in this very review and i've talked about the bad things that are in this very episode of WWE Raw in this very review and as such this episode of WWE Raw gets a 3.5 out of 10 from this die hard wrestling fan.

Now then as for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well then boys and girls and ladies and gentlemen I got all of the images that I used in this very review from the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page and from Google Images. With my personal preferred website to use to get images of this episode of WWE Raw being Google Images simply because there was alot more of a verity of images to choose from which simply wasn't the case with the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page since even tho the images that were featured / presented to us in the official Pro Wrestling fandom fairly high quality and as well as being fairly high definition there simply  wasn't enough images that applied to this particular episode of WWE Raw and thus I simply couldn't use them in this very review. 

  

He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe 1983 "Diamond Ray Of Disappearance" Review

 

Cartoon fans we are but about a month or so away from the release of the newest He-Man animated series which is being called simply just Masters Of The Universe: Revelation and as such I thought that now was the right time to make a tie in review. However since i've already covered the He-Man and She-Ra animated and the live action Masters Of The Universe movie and it's far to early to be talking about the He-Man and She-Ra christmas special that only left me with one opinion and so join me as I review the the very first episode of the 1983 He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe TV series with the episode in question being called simply just "Diamond Ray Of Disappearance" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is Skeletor and his evil minions try to attack Castle Grayskull and Skeletor also makes a bunch of He-Mans allies disappear using a magic diamond and so it's up to He-Man , Teela and Orko to save the day before it's far to freaking late. In terms of what I thought about the actual plot of this episode in all honesty the actual plot of this episode was at best OK which for a show as cheesy as this is perhaps the best thing that I can say about the plot of episode since nobody goes into He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe expecting a great plot and so it would foolish to expect this episode or even any episode of He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe to have a great or even an above average plot to any of there episodes this episode included.

Starring in this episode is John Erwin as Prince Adam / He-Man and Beast Man and Alan Oppenheimer as Skeletor , Man-At-Arms , Cringer and Mer-Man. Also starring in this very / particular episode is Linda Gary as Teela , The Sorceress , Evil-Lyn and Queen Marlena and Erik Gunden as Orko , King Randor and Tri-Klops. For some strange reason only four voice actors from this show appear in this episode and all of them are the shows leading actors and so I have to wonder why weren't more actors brought onto to this show to help fill out the shows cast.

In terms of what I personally thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode in all honesty the acting that's featured / presented to us in this episode is honestly really good. I honestly had no idea what to expect from this episode acting wise since i've in all honesty never seen an episode of He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe and so i was left pleasantly surprised by how good the acting in this particular episode was. 

Now I have no idea who did the animation either for this episode or for the show as a whole but knowing that Filmation is not only involved with making this show but that they were also an animation company I have to assume that Filmation did the animation for only this episode but for the show as a whole. As for what I thought about the animation that was featured / presented to us in this particular episode in all honesty I thought that the animation that was featured / presented to us in this particular episode was really good yes it's not groundbreaking and yes it's not perfect by any means but for an early eighties animated TV show the animation that was featured / presented to us in this episode was as good as it perhaps could have been.

This show is the episode was the one thing that She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power wasn't and that's fun. Since for some strange reason even tho She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power has pretty much the exact same premise as both She-Ra Princess Of Power and He-Man Masters Of The Universe it just wasn't a fun show to watch where as this episode in particular knew what it was and it knew to just have fun with it's premise and because of that this episode is very fun to watch.

Most modern cartoons just aren't that interested in being fun and alot of the time the ones that are interested in being fun get bashed by cartoon and animation fans for little to no actual reason. Which to me is baffling since you can have a good show that's light on plot and light on character but still be a good and fun show to watch not every show or movie needs to have a dark and complex storyline and be filled with a dark and complex characters sometimes just being fun is good enough and that is the case with not only this episode but also from this entire show.  

One of the things that I didn't like about this episode is that all of the characters come across as very two dimensional. Like for example all of the heroes are always willing to do what's right but we don't really know why that's the case nor do we find why all of the villains in this episode are evil and so I would have liked it if this episode took the time to tell us why these characters are the way they are even if it's done some clumsily written piece of dialog since it still would have been better then nothing which is what we get here we get nothing.

This episode has a grand total running time of twenty minuets and forty four seconds which I personally felt was the right amount of time for this particular episode. Since there's not much there in terms of actual plot for this episode and so stretching this episode out even to twenty two minuets would have meant that we would have had a lot of scenes are just  filler and would serve no overall purpose to the plot of this particular episode but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Now then boys and girls since this show is an action show after all and that means that there is actual action in this episode and that means that I have to talk about the actual action that's scene / featured / presented to us in the / this actual episode itself and well if i'm being honest the action that's featured / presented to us in this episode is kind of a let down for me personally. Since I was expecting to see some over the top campy and cheesy and corny action sequences in this episode and I didn't get that instead what I got was something that felt very watered down which makes sense given that this is a kids show meant to sell toys to little kids but at the same time the makers of this show could have put a bit more effort into creating some fun action sequences to go into this particular episode.

Overall this was a decent first episode and it's one that i'm glad to have finally have seen before the new He-Man animated series comes out this July. Now then since i've talked about both of the good things that are featured / presented to us in this very in this very review and as well as both of the bad things that are featured / presented to us in this very episode in this very review and since I did find quite a few / quite alot of things wrong in this episode that means that this particular episode gets a 7.5 out of 10 from me.

As for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well then boys and girls and ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I used in his very review from the official He-Man And She-Ra fandom wiki page and the official She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power fandom wiki page. With my personal preferred website to use to get images this episode being the official He-Man And She-Ra fandom wiki page just simply due to the fact that pretty much all of the images that are featured / presented to us on the official the official He-Man And She-Ra fandom wiki page are all fairly high quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

My SPOILER Filled First Impressions Of The Live Action Loki TV Series

 

Marvel fans Marvel is really freaking spoiling us with all of these new shows all of whom have all been premiering pretty freaking soon after the previous TV series ended. Well now we have yet another live action TV show from Marvel with the show itself being set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe and so join me as I give you my SPOILER filled first impressions of the latest Marvel TV show with the TV show in question being called simply just "Loki" enjoy.

Now then here is where I would normally give the plot of this debut episode and as well as give my thoughts and opinions on the plot of this debut / premier / first episode. However I really have no idea what the actual plot of this episode even is because this episode is so insane that it honestly is really hard for me to work out the actual plot of this episode even is and I honestly really do love this show because of that fact.

Starring in this episode and in the rest of the show is Tom Hiddleston as Loki and Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ravonna Renslayer. Also starring in this episode and the rest of the show is Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15 , Eugene Cordero as Casey , Derek Russo as Hunter U-92 , Mumkhshur Bolbaatar as A Gobi Villager , Josh Fadem as Martin , Raphael Luce as French Boy and the legend that is Owen Wilson as Mobius M. Mobius.

As for what I personally thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode well in my opinion anyways / at least the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode is really freaking good. With all of the actors that are starring in this episode all do a really good job of portraying their respective characters with a special shout out going to Tom Hiddleston who is just simply to watch in this episode.

Doing the CGI for this particular episode and possibly for this entire show we have FuseFX , Industrial Light & Magic , Lola Visual Effects , Luma Pictures , Method Studios and Stereo D. Now while there isn't that many CGI creatures in this particular episode the exterior backgrounds for most of this episode are fully CGI and it's those CGI backgrounds that I want focus on because you rather rightfully don't notice the CGI in those backgrounds but I honestly do feel that the CGI backgrounds do look good but I will admit that you can tell that they just filmed the actors on a blue screen because the composition just doesn't look right for some reason and yes the one CGI creature that we do get in episode looks good and the overall quality of the CGI is really good in my opinion anyways / at least.

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

Now I wasn't quite sure if this counted as a spoiler or not but since this actress wasn't announced as being apart of this show I thought that it was worth putting her in the spoiler section of this post because lending her voice and joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe we have voice acting legend Tara Strong as The Voice Of Miss Minutes. Honestly I was so shocked to see that Tara Strong aka one of the many voices of Harley Quinn and the voice of Raven from Teen titans and Teen Titans Go among many other things was joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe and honestly as a fan of Tara Strong I cannot wait to hear more of her in the Marvel Cinematic Universe / MCU.

As to be expected this show does take place directly after Loki's escape from New York in Avengers: Endgame and yes we do see where Loki went to directly after he escaped from New York in Avengers: Endgame. In all honesty I really like that this show is set when it is because it means that we now get a question answered from Avengers: Endgame with that question being where did Loki end up after he escaped from New York and how does his escape from New York effect this new timeline which judging by what's said in this episode it looks like / as if Loki will at somepoint be returned to New York to set the timeline right but I could be wrong tho.

Now then the character of Loki des actually make a good point in this episode since in this episode the people in the Time Variance Authority capture Loki for supposedly breaking the laws of time and yet while he's being held in court for his alleged crimes he brings up the Avengers time travelling shenanigans. This is honestly a good point and even tho the episode does put in some rules that make what the Avengers were doing seem good it still doesn't change the fact that all of the Avengers broke the current timeline and thus created a new timeline which as stated in this very episode is a very big no no.

I will very much admit that this particular episode did get a few good laughs out of me like the fact that the people in the evidence room use infinity stones as paper weights is a good joke. However this episode leaned far to much on the comedy aspect of the show and not enough telling a good story or even setting up a good which is fine for a first viewing but it also means that this episode isn't going to be very rewatchable since there's very little to no plot about this actual show that's started in this episode and bits of the overall plot that we do infact get aren't given as much attention as they perhaps should have done.

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

This episode really didn't do a good job of setting up what the overall story for this show will be since they only bring up what could possibly be the overall story for this show a few times but even then it's in passing and as such I have no idea what the main story for this show even is. However I will admit that it could be fun seeing Tom Hiddleston and Owen Wilson just bounce of each other however since this show is only going to be six episodes long I really would have liked it if they started focusing on the main plot of this show right away since they don't have the amount of episodes to justify having filler episodes.

This episode has a total running time of fifty minuets and nineteen seconds which I honestly feel is about the right amount of running time for this episode. Simply because there really isn't a story being told in this episode and as such it would have been pointless to even attemt to make this episode one hour or even longer then one hour long but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Now then boys and girls this show is listed as an action show on Wikipedia and on IMDB however there is very little to no action that's actually seen in this very episode. However with that being said however what little action we do get is very passable which I guess is to be expected from but at the same time the action that's been seen in other Marvel Cinematic Universe properties has always been really good and so it's a shame to see the action in this particular episode just be OK at best.

Overall this was a decent debut episode and I can honestly see this show doing rather well but it's very difficult for me to say if this show will get as many die hard fans as Wandavision did tho. Now then i've talked about both of the good and well as both of the bad things that are in this debuting / debut episode in this very post however since these are only my first impressions of this show i will not give this show a rating since any show can have a good first episode just like any show can have a bad first episode and so it wouldn't right or even for me to judge an entire show just based of off the very first episode alone.

As for where I got all of images that I used in this post well then boys and girls and ladies and gentlemen I got all of the images that I used in this very post from Google Images and the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page. With my preferred website to use to get images from this show and this episode being the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page just due to the fact that nearly pretty much all of the images that are on the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page are al fairly high quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

Sailor Moon Eternal Part 1 Dubbed Film Review

 

Anime fans it's been a long time since i've last spoken about an anime and well as luck would have it there just so happened to be a new two part anime film out this week on Netflix. I want it known right now at the start of this review that just because i'm reviewing part 1 of this film doesn't necessarily mean that i'll watch and review part 2 since yeah this film really didn't make me want to watch part 2 and so join me as I review the film that is actually the first sailor Moon feature length film to be released to Japanese theatres in twenty six years with the film in question being called simply just "Sailor Moon Eternal Part 1" enjoy.

The plot of this film is an evil circus has come to town with all of the circus acts turning peoples dreams into nightmares and so it's up the Sailor Scouts / Sailor Guardians to stop the evil circus before the evil circus takes over the world. In terms of what I personally thought about the plot of this film in all honesty I thought the plot of this film was pretty decent  but at the same time it was hard to make out what the actual plot of the film was since the actual plot of this film is so weak that at times it straight up disappears from the movie and not helping things is the fact that the plot really just feels like something that you'd see in an episode of the show and not something that you'd want to see in a full length theatrically released Sailor Moon movie.

Starring in this film is Amanda C. Miller as Makoto Kino / Sailor Jupiter and Cherami Leigh as Minako Aino / Sailor Venus. Also starring in this film is Cristina Vee as Rei Hino / Sailor Mars  , Kate Higgins as Ami Mizuno / Sailor Mercury , Robbie Daymond as Mamoru Chiba / Tuxedo Mask , Sandy Fox as Chibiusa Tsukino / Sailor Chibi Moon , Stephanie Sheh as Usagi Tsukino / Sailor Moon , John Eric Bentley as Tiger's Eye , Johnny Yong Bosch as Artemis , Kelly Baskin as Deimos , Kelly Baskin as Deimos and Debi Derryberry as Diana.

As you can no doubt work out by who I have listed as starring in this film and from the actual title of this review I will be basing this review of the dubbed version of this film and so in terms of what I thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this film in all honesty the acting that's featured / presented to us in this film isn't that bad. Since alot of the actors that are starring in this film are reprising their roles from I believe the Viz Media dub of Sailor Moon and so the actors know what performance would best suit / fit their character and it really does help that the actors that are starring in this film are generally really good actors and are generally really good voice actors. 

Doing the animation for both parts of this two part film are Studio DEEN and Toei Animation and well I honestly did like the animation in this film. Since for me at least in this film visually looked like that it was a huge step up in quality form the animation that we saw in Sailor Moon Crystal and for me to say that is truly shocking because the animation that was featured / presented to us in Sailor Moon Crystal was already really freaking good and so for this movie to have higher quality animation really is a good thing in my opinion any ways / at least.

Now then this film and part 2 of this film are the basically the fourth season of Sailor Moon Crystal which honestly does somewhat explain one of the major issues that I have with this film but i'll get into that later on in this very review. I can honestly see why they wanted to adapt Sailor Moon Crystal for a feature length film since Sailor Moon Crystal was from what I can remember at least a really good show but just because the show itself was good doesn't mean that the movie adaptation of the show is good and sadly this film in my opinion anyways / at least isn't that freaking good but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

I will give this film this it does a good job of making what could be very annoying characters seem somehow actually likeable. Since characters like Chibiusa or even Usagi Tsukino AKA Sailor Moon herself could be very annoying characters if they are in the wrong hands however here I felt that the characters in this film were really written even if you could see each plot point for each respective character coming a mile away.

The tricky task with any TV show that's being turned into a film is that the film adaptation of the TV show has to not feel like an extended episode of the show and that's sadly something is an issue with this film.  Since this film really does feel like an extended episode of Sailor Moon Crystal since this film plot points for each characters seemingly every twenty minuets or so all the while falling into the exact same pitfalls that alot of if not all two part films fall into since this film is basically a feature length trailer for part 2.

This film has a total running time of one hour and twenty one minuets and twenty three seconds and trust me when I tell you that you feel every second of it. Since even tho the pacing of this film is fine with scenes not lasting any longer then they need to what makes this film boring is the repetitive nature of the film's plot and as such I do very strongly feel that if this film had a less repetitive plot then the film could have been very entertaining but as it is I personally found this film to be so freaking dull that it's unreal how dull this film actually was to me personally.

Now then boys and girls this film is listed on IMDB as being an action film and so that means that I have to talk about all of the action that's featured / resented to us in the actual film itself and well if i;;m being honest the comedy and the action that's featured / presented to us in this film are the most entertaining part of this film. Which really isn't saying much since most of this film is pretty freaking dull as a rock in my opinion anyways / at least and so having action that's very entertaining isn't going to be a high bar to reach but sadly there isn't enough action in this action film which is a shame because when we do get an action sequence it is very entertaining.

Overall this was honestly a pretty film in my opinion anyways but at the same time i can see die hard Sailor Moon or even die hard Sailor Moon Crystal fans enjoying this movie but tho just due to how bad I thought that this film was i'm not going to be checking out Part 2. Now then since i've talked about both of the good and as well as both of the bad things that are in this film in this very review that means that this film gets a score of a 5 out of 10 from me.

As for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well then boys and girls and 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 , the official Sailor Moon fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personal preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images just simply due / down to the fact that Google Images has alot of images from this film and alot of the images that are on Google Images are fairly high quality and as well as being fairly high definition.
