Suicide Squad Isekai TV Series SPOILER FILLED Review


Warner Bros Pictures. right now really loves anime with them just releasing the debut trailer for The Lord Of The Rings: The War Of The Rohirrim and Rick And Morty: The Anime. As such it would be really understandable if people just straight up forgot about or even didn't know about this show even being a thing let alone the fact that it's just aired it's tenth and final episode and as such you all just knew that I had to review the show the very chance that I had as i'd been watching each and every single dubbed episode of the show when it was being released and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED review of the show that technically marks DC's third ever foray into the world of anime with the show in question being called simply just "Suicide Squad Isekai" enjoy.

The plot of this show is when Task Force X finds itself trapped in another world they have to find away back to there own world all whilst trying to stop a war between the various factions in this new and strange world. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show 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 but at the same time tho this shows plot wasn't all that good either as while yes it does just give us a stereotypical isekai type of plot only with DC characters it really doesn't do all that much that's actually interesting with the characters that they have instead alot of the time Task Force X spend alot of time just exploring the world that there i n and not really trying to find a way home it's only in a few select episodes where the plot of the show actually becomes the main vocal point of the episode and it's those episodes that are some of the best episodes in the show with the plot of this show also being really rather entertaining and as well as as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this show is Karlii Hoch as Dr. Harleen Quinzel / Harley Quinn and Jovan Jackson as Floyd Lawton / Deadshot. Also starring in this show is Sean Patrick Judge as Christopher Smith / Peacemaker , Brandon Hearnsberger as Basil Karlo / Clayface , Andrew Love as Nanaue / King Shark , Jeremy Gee as Rick Flag Jr. , Jasmine Renee Thomas as Amanda Waller , Genevieve Simmons as Tatsu Yamashiro / Katana , Luci Christian as Princess Fione , Patricia Duran as Queen Aldora / The Undead Queen , John Gremillion as Cecil , Adam Noble as Otis Flannegan / Ratcatcher , Jade Kelly as Lich , Jay Hickman as The Thinker , Christina Kelly as Dr. June Moon / Enchantress , Cyrus Rodas as Hank , Chaney Moore as Arthur The Dragon and Scott Gibbs as The Joker.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show 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 show was in all honesty not that bad. Which was kind of unexpected as alot of this shows voice cast are a bunch of really unknown voice actors and as a result of that is the fact that it really would have been foolish to expect good or even great acting from this shows voice cast and while the performances in this show aren't that great as alot of the shows cast give the characters weird voices with the best example of this being Scott Gibbs as The Joker goes from a character that sounds creepy and scary in Batman: The Animated Series to a character that sounds a bit to campy for his good and it gets to the point where instead of being scared of the character your laughing at the character as his voice is just that bad with the acting that's in this very show not really being helped by the fact that the scripts for this show are really bad as none of them give the actors much to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities which is something that really does effect the overall quality pf the acting that's in this very show.


Doing the animation for this show is the legends and the really greats that are currently over at Wit Studio. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show 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 show was in all honesty not that bad as it's quite clear that there is alot of love and effort thrown into the animation in this show but at the same time this shows animation isn't all that good either with it being made painfully obvious in alot of episodes where they cut corners as they don't show the characters faces nor do they show characters lips moving which is something that does have the add on effect of making the show as a whole look cheap and while yes it's not unusual for a show to cut corners here and there to save money for the bigger and more expensive looking episodes but even in this show in those bigger and more expensive episodes there still cutting corners to save money on the animation instead of just going all out but when this show does have some good looking animation in it it really is some really good looking animation.

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



The end of episode 10 does set up the possibility of a second season for this show but what it does is so dumb as it makes no sense. Since for strange reason The Joker has gained the ability to shape shift when at some point in the show he found himself in this world and has been going around as Katana which makes no sense as any version of The Joker doesn't really care for Harley as there in an abusive relationship and the only reason that he would want to rescue her is because it's something that benefits him or because he's bored and that's really it and he would never go and try to take over a new world as his whole thing is fighting Batman something which The Joker himself has said is something that he enjoys and heck even in The Lego Batman Movie he nearly destroyed the whole world just because Batman didn't say that he hated The Joker and yet for some strange reason this show thought it was a good hook to have the character appear in a tease for a potential second season which OK does make sense as he is a popular character and having him in the shows second season would bring more eyes to the show buy at the same time it's also something that needs to make sense for the character and not just be there for the sake of being there.

To give this show some credit the Task Force X characters are really fun characters with alot of them acting exactly how you think that they would. Yet they would also change things up like for example Clayface is pretty much an anime fan who explains all the ins and outs of an isekai to the team which can be pretty funny at times and Harley later on in the show becomes a mother figure to the teams dragon which again does lead to some fun scenes but neither of them are things that play into the shows plot with Arthur The Dragon being there basically to fly Harley close enemies in action scenes and that's really it but that's the golden treatment compared to what the rest of the characters get as none of this shows characters are given anything interesting about them which would work for the comic book characters as then you could always chalk it up to the fact that they have literal decades worth of comics to get there personalities across but for the shows newer characters that's not an excuse and heck the shows newer characters even disappear from the show for episodes at time so much so that it would be understandable if you all forgot that those characters were even in this show in the first place and yet towards the shows end it's those characters that go on to play a much more bigger role in the show this is despite the fact that these characters disappear for huge chunks of the show.


The shows villain is The Undead Queen who is a character that can control armies of the dead which on paper does sound cool and it does lead to some really cool action sequences in episodes 6 and 10. However at the same time the show does nothing unique with that idea like for example since Clayface does technically die in a few episodes how cool would it have been if she was able to control and have him then have to struggle between killing this truly evil person or kill the people that he's grown to like over the course of the show and yet the show does none of that and infact they don't even have the events of episode six where a good few members of Task Force X appear dead infront of Harley in any meaningful way outside of one reference in episode 9 and that's really it and that's not really good enough as something like that should effect Harley as a character and make her want to do better but all it does is leave her the exact same character and heck even the shows main villain doesn't really appear until the end of episode 9 with her appearing in other episodes as a version of Queen Aldora which does technically mean that she's dead and that Princess Fione might now technically be the queen of this world and yet having her appear that late in the shows run really doesn't help the character as it means that the character really doesn't have the chance to get across what her end goal is nor does it give us the audience a reason to hate this character either as we've not had the time to get really get to know this character as a villain.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty four minuets and forty one seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstandard running time for this show to have and to this episodes credit it really does have more then enough plot to really cover that amount of running time and yet at the exact same time tho this episode really could have been longer as it has so much to wrap as this is a show that really doesn't need a season two and yet this show doesn't end with the team going back to our world which makes no sense as the whole point of the show has been about the team trying to get back to our world and that is something that really could have been covered in this episode and yet they don't do it and instead they chose to end the show on a pointless cliffhanger with The Joker with his scene just being there for the sake of being there and not because of the fact that adds anything to his character and while yes this episode does have a really good running time to it at the same time there are portions of this episode that do feel like filler like we don't need to see Peacemaker and King Shark fighting Killer Croc as that adds nothing to the episode and really could have been left on the cutting room floor but I really will admit that this episode and this show as a whole really does have some really good pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is an action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in his very show was in all honesty really good. With the action in this show being where the show gets to be the most fun as we get to see the team use the powers that they got when they entered this new world at various stages alot of which do lead to some really fun scenes like for example Harley can now make things bigger and Deadshot can now hit things miles away and things like that which is great as it's true to there characters and heck even in episode ten they all get a Sailor Moon esk transformation sequence which then leads to  really fun battle against an army of the undead and it;s that very action scene that's the best looking action in the whole series as it's something that's been built up for a few a episodes and due to the fact that the battle started in episode nine it really does feel epic and like there are actual stakes involved which is something that does add to the overall excitement of the action scene itself in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

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


Overall this was a solid series but it's one that could have been alot better and actually did something interesting with it's legacy characters and give us new characters that we want to see more and that we want to like instead of having them just be there for the sake of being there and that's really it 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 his very show in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very show really earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies an gentlemen I personally got al of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official DC Database fandom wiki page , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to really use to get the images from these very episodes that I really used in this very review being the really great Google Images simply just because of the fact that really due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are in this review really are all really from this very show and are really of course up and really on the really great Google Images are really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Doctor Who: Fear Her Review


Doctor Who has never really been one to attract controversy as it's mostly been controversy free and while yes there have been some minor controversial moments in the shows past before now. There's really only been one maybe even two controversial moments that spring to mind well now that number has sadly gone up and that is something that does effect that i'm going to be talking about today and given the nature of the controversy it is something that's going to be have brought up in this review as well and so then join me as I review the episode that sees The Doctor take on his smallest enemy yet with the episode in question being called simply just "Fear Her" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is when kids on a typical street start disappearing it's up to The Doctor and Rose to find out what's happening and stop whoever is taking these kids once and for all. 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 h0onesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that that bad but at the same time the plot of this episode really isn't all that good either as it just comes across as being the stereotypical Doctor Who plot only without any charm to it and while yes this episodes plot does have some really good and creepy ideas in it the plot as a whole really does come across as feeling like it somebodies first draft of a screenplay and not there final draft as there are alot of things from a plot perspective that could have been worked on some of which they actively discuss in the episode commentary track as well but when this episode does get something plot wise it really does get it really right with the plot of this episode also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is David Tennant as The Doctor , Billie Piper as Rose Tyler and Love Actually star Nina Sosanya as Trish. Also starring in this episode is Abisola Agbaje as Chloe Webber , EastEnders star Edna Doré as Maeve , Tim Faraday as Tom's Dad , Love Actually star Abdul Salis as Kel , Richard Nichols as A Driver , Erica Eirian as A Neighbour and Stephen Marzella as A Police Officer.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. With all of this episodes actors turning in some really good performances which for David Tennant and Billie Piper Billie especially is really nothing new as she's been playing Rose Tyler for a really long time at this point in time and there she would therefor no what kind of performance would best suit her character in any given situation with the rest of this episodes actors also really turning in some really performances which really does go to show that the director for this episode Euros Lyn really does know hoe to get a really good performance out of his actors with the acting in this episode really being helped by the fact that the script for this episode is just so good that all this episodes actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance really will come out of them which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very episode.


Doing the CGI for this is the legends and the greats that are really currently over at The Mill and Any Effects. Now then interms of what I personally thought /felt about the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad but at the same time this episodes CGI wasn't all that good either and while that can attributed to the fact that this episode had an even smaller budget then what Doctor Who usually has as the next two episodes were very effects heavy episodes and as such they needed to cut corners in this episodes in order to make room in the budget but at the same time given that this episode really doesn't that many effects in it and both of them don't look that good there should have been more of an effort into creating some really good effects even if it was done on a tiny effects budget as the effects teams wouldn't have any other effects in this episode to really take away from the bad effects and yet even tho we do get some decent looking effects when it comes to people watching the Olympics the pencil creature and the Isolus don't look as good as they really should have done. 


There's no way that I could possibly talk about this episode without talking about it's recent controversy thanks to it's guest star Huw Edwards. As it's come to light that he was caught with images of children that number one weren't his kids which is bad enough but secondly are images that you don't want to be caught with and as a result of that is the fact that the BBC have pulled this episode off of BBC IPlayer thus making this episode the only episode in Doctor Who history to have an episode pulled off of BBC IPlayer and while them pulling the episode does indeed make sense as what he did was very wrong at the same time it has come out that they knew about it and as a result of that is the fact that them pulling the episode really does come across as them trying to save face in the eyes of the public now how much the Doctor Who production team knew when they were making the episode is hard to say as none of them have come out and said anything either way but given that they working on re-recording his lines with someone else does say that they perhaps didn't know what he's been up to but there is always a chance that they did know and like the BBC are trying to do now are just trying to save face in the eyes of the public.

On to much more lighter things while Doctor Who has always had it's fair share of cheesy moments in it. This episode does have a really cheesy moment in it as well as when the torch barer for the Olympic flame falls over they have The Doctor run up to him pick the flame up and light the Olympic Flame which on paper does sound like a really good ting as Doctor Who is a British icon and the Olympics were taking place in London both in the episode and in real life but at the same time it is something that really does come across as being a cheesy moment and it's one that could have been left out of the episode as while it does add to the plot of the episode as it explains why the Alien's spaceship is now able to leave the earth there could have been other less corny ways to have that happen and still keep the episodes Olympic theme front and centre and yet they way that they went with just came across as being really cheesy in all of the right ways just due to how iconic Doctor Who is but it could have been done alot better and done in a way that wasn't as cheesy as it was and yet they way that they went with does seem in keeping with the episodes alot more lighter tone as well. 


In a rather bizarre twist the episode really doesn't have an out and out villain as while the closest thing to villain is Chole's deceased father. With him acting like the abuser that he was when he was alive with him trying and in most cases succeeding to torment Chole and her mother Trish but even then he really doesn't come into play as a villain with the vast majority of the episodes running time being spent with Chole and the by extension the Isolus being the episodes main villains with them getting alot of the episodes care and attention with the father only being given the spotlight in smaller scenes which makes him feel like a secondary villain when in reality he's the episodes main villain and yet the episode really doesn't treat him as such and yet the Isolus who despite having very noble end goals of just wanting to return to there own family is instead treated as the episodes main villain when there in fact the episodes secondary villain and as a result of that it really does mean that we get a pair of characters that despite them working in this episode would have worked much more better if they switched there own roles with the father becoming the main villain of the piece and Chole and the Isolus becoming the episodes secondary villains as that would allow the episode to still tackle it's child abuse subtext and yet still give out the message of hope , love and unity that is present all through out this episode as well.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly forty six minuets and three seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstandard running time for this show to have at this point in time and to this episodes credit this episode really does have the right amount of plot to really cover that large amount of time and while the episode does feel like that it's going through the motions alot of the time when the episode really does ramp up near the end it does get more exciting and when the episode does have some scares in it there some really good scares that remind you of just how creepy Doctor Who can be and yet at the exact same time this episode really could have done with being a bit longer as the episode has so many characters that really do need fleshing out and yet thanks to this episodes running time they can't be as fleshed out as they really could have been with the same thing also being true for both Trish and Chole as well as both of them do come across as being very dimensional characters when out of the episodes guest cast they are the ones that should have been given the character development that they really needed the most but I really will admit that this episode really does gave some really good pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is an action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. As the action really was exciting to see with doing a good job of getting us the audience really excited to see the father get destroyed which while he does get destroyed in a rather underwhelming way it's still exciting seeing how we get to that point and the fact that it was something that was really well built up thanks to the jeopardy of not having The Doctor there to save the day means that it now forces Rose to think on her feet and it forces her to become the hero that we've only seen glimpses off throughout her run in the show which is something that does work really well for this episode as it shows that The Doctor does have a lot of faith in Rose even tho she might not have it in her self just yet and because of the fact that we get a really exciting action packed third act that works really well in the context of the episode but doesn't work really well on paper as it something that really does need to be seen in order for it work as well as it really does in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Overall this is an episode that on paper should have been really good as it had all of the potential to be a really good episode of this series of Doctor Who and yet for one reason or another this episode just didn't live up to the potential that it had with the episode instead really just instead crumbling under all of it's own 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 are in this very episode in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very episode really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6 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 we ll as ladies and gentlemen I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . UK , the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very episode that I used in this very review being the really great the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very episode with alot of them being better quality then what'd think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Johnny Bravo TV Series "Johnny Bravo" , "Jungle Boy In Mr Monkeyman" and "Johnny Bravo And The Amazon Women" Review


Cartoon Network in the nineties was a truly wonderful place to be with pretty much all of there shows fro that time period being really good shows. However with all of that success does mean that a few shows will get forgotten about as is the case with the show that i'm going to be talking about today as this is a show that really isn't talked about all that often not often by those who were around when it first airing either and so then join me as I review the episodes that technically aired as part of another cartoon show first with the episodes in question being called simply just "Johnny Bravo" , "Jungle Boy In Mr Monkeyman" and "Johnny Bravo And The Amazon Women" enjoy.

The plots of the episodes are in Johnny Bravo Johnny tries to recapture a nine hundred pound gorilla and in Jungle Boy In Mr Monkeyman King Raymond becomes jealous of Jungle Boy and sets out to ruin his reputation once and for all and in Johnny Bravo And The Amazon Women Johnny finds him on island full to the brim with beautiful Amazon Women and does everything that he can do to get near them. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plots that;s are actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plots that are actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty not that bad as all three of episodes plots were really strong plots with the weakest episode plot wise by Jungle Boy In Mr Monkeyman just because of the fact that alot of that episode is spent with nothing going on to advance the plot of the episode where as with the other two segments there was always something going on that was advancing the plots of the segments with the plots also also being really rather rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in these episodes is Jeff Bennett as Johnny Bravo and Man 3 , Soleil Moon Frye as Mary and Maurice LaMarche as The Fat Robber and The Narrator , Roger Rose as The Gorilla  Scott , Butch , Christopher and Louis , Mae Whitman as The Little Girl , Cody Dorkin as JungleBoy , Michael McKean as King Raymond , Rupert and Rhino , Candi Milo as Mary Antelope , Effie and Jill , April Winchell as Donna , Kris and Liz , Brenda Vaccar as Melissa , Pat Musick as Grandma , B.J. Ward as Cindy and An Amazon and David L. Lander as Christopher.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that;s actually featured / presented to us in these 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 thee very episodes was in all honesty really good. Which is something that really does make alot of sense given that pretty much all of the actors that are in these episodes are a bunch of really are a bunch of really good actors and a bunch of really good voice actors in there own right with all of them really delivering some really good and some really funny performances in all three of these episodes with the acting that's in these very episodes really being helped by the fact that the scripts for this episodes are juts so good that all this episodes cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performances will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in these episodes episodes.


Doing the animation for these episodes is Hanna-Barbera Productions , Fil-Cartoons , Mr. Big Cartoons , Sunwoo Entertainment and Wang Film Productions Company. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty person ally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these vert episodes was in all honesty not that bad and was a lot better then what it really had any right to be but at the same time tho the animation that's in all three of these segments wasn't really all that good either as the backgrounds don't look that good in Johnny Bravo And The Amazon women this is despite them looking really good in Johnny Bravo and the animation and backgrounds in Jungle Boy And Mr Monkeyman while it wasn't really the best was certainly alot better then what it could have been with the backgrounds in that segment just looking really bland and really boring with the same thing also being true for Johnny Bravo And The Amazon Women as well with all of the characters having some really nice and fluid movements to them in all three of this episodes segments with the animation really shining through when it comes to all three segments comedy.


What alot of people might have forgotten about or just straight up don't know is that even these segments are indeed the first three segments in Johnny Bravo they weren't originally produced as apart of the series. As all three of them were instead produced as apart of the show What A Cartoon which showed new cartoons in every segment with the more popular ones becoming there own TV shows with prime examples of this being Cow And Chicken , Dexter's Laboratory , Courage The Cowardly Dog and The Powerpuff Girls with this show also being one and a few years after this show had been picked up and started airing int's first season these segments were then added into the mix to form the shows first episode this was done tho after the show official first episode had already aired thus meaning that all of the episodes get moved down one order from what they originally were and given that alot of the other shows that came of from What A Cartoon also included there original What A Cartoon shorts as part of other segments it does make sense that this show would combine there episodes to make up the first Johnny Bravo episode as even tho none of them feature the regular supporting cast of characters they do give us the audience a good idea of just what the show will be like in future episodes in the show moving forward.

To be frank this show would not be made simply due to the fact that Johnny Bravo himself does in the first segment force himself onto a woman and in the other segments of not only this episode but the show as a whole spends alot of time trying to get with various women. While yes he does get turned down in more often then not very violent and always hilarious ways you can just picture somebody somewhere getting offended by this cartoon without realising the fact that he's getting turned down is apart of the joke and is the shows way of saying that's he's in the wrong and that how he treats women in the grand scheme of things is also wrong as they'll just take this show at face value and that's really it and yet they'll find the Jungle Boy segment which is the weakest of the three segments to be the most enjoyable for no reason whatsoever this is despite the fact that the Jungle Boy segment has very little redeeming qualities about it as that character is one joke character where as with Johnny Bravo you can get a good few jokes just out of how dumb he is alone with the fact that he can't get a single woman to go out with him being as aspect of his character as all those people who are easily offended will be focused on is the fact that he kissed a woman without her consent despite the fact that she beats him up for it directly afterwards.


Speaking of the Jungle Boy segment there was one redeeming factor about that segment and thats the fact that King Raymond is the segments most entertaining character. As he's a villain who just wants his subjects to obey him and to love only him thus giving him a bit of an ego and yet everybody around him either hates him or just straight up ignores him which does lead to some very entertaining scenes as he sets out to ruin Jungle Boy's reputation by giving him a bad name all done with him going around dressed up as Jungle Boy which includes him shaving off all of his skin and wearing a wig all of which goes a long way to proving the fact that this character does have an ego and can;t handle the fact that nobody likes him heck even his own monkey butler really doesn't care for him all that much either and this is something that does make him an entertaining character as it gives him flaws and a reason for him being the way that he is and heck the whole segment would have been better if he was the main focus of it and if Jungle Boy was instead given more of a supporting role as Jungle Boy as a character really just isn't that interesting nor is he all that entertaining as a character as he's just the stereotypical good guy who just so happens to be a toddler and that's really all there is to his character where as there's alot kore to King Raymond as a character.

Now then the first segment has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly six minutes and fifty three seconds with the second segment having a grand total running time of exactly six minuets and thirty three seconds and the third segment has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly six minuets and twenty two seconds. With all three segments really having some rather solid running times as all three segments really do have the right amount of plot to really cover there respective running times with the the segment that has the best running time being Johnny Bravo And The Amazon Women just because of the fact that they do spend some time in setting up the amazon island and really making as good a use as they could have done with that running and while all three segments pack in a ton of jokes in there segments respective running times it's the first segment Johnny Bravo that takes as full advantage of it's running time as it could have done as that segment who Johnny is a character and still tell a really good story which it really does manage to given the short running time that the segment has but I will admit that all three segments really do have some really good pacing in them tho.


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 these vert segments 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 very segments was in all honesty really good. With all three of this episodes segments really having alot of really funny jokes in them and all three segments really packing in alot of jokes in there respective running times alot of which are quick little sight gags that chances are your not going to notice on a first viewing like the fact that in the Jungle Boy segment that make a reference to Everybody Love Reymond which was a quick little joke but it was still a really funny joke with the first and third segments having some really funny slapstick moments which really do show off just how funny this shows animation really could have been as the slapstick not only looks painful but it also looks really funny as well but even then there not the best joke of this whole entire episode as that honor goes to a joke in episode where in order to convince the zoo keeper to let him go after the gorilla Johnny tells her that he's a superhero with one of his powers being able to make a sandwich which was just such a funny joke and really did show off just how dim witted that this character really was in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall while these episode both are and aren't the official start to Johnny Bravo they do give you a good idea of just how random that this show was and just how funny that this show was when it was at it's best and while it wouldn't get made there might be some people out there who love these segments as alot of them are just that good and are that funny 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 things that are in these segments in this very review and as such that means that Johnny Bravo earns itself a grad old score of exactly a 7 out of 10 , Jungle Boy In Mr Monkeyman earns it self a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 and Johnny Bravo And The Amazon Women earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 out of 10 with all three segments earning themselves a combined grand total 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 mages that I personally used in this very review from the official Johnny Bravo fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from these very segments episodes that I used in this very review being the really great the official Johnny Bravo fandom wiki page simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from these very segments and are really of course on the official Johnny Bravo fandom wiki page are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Watchmen: Chapter I Film Review


For some strange reason Hollywood has been rather in love with the Watchmen story recently as just a few short years ago we had the TV show and now were getting a two part animated film. Whilst the idea of adapting these characters into animation was going to happen eventually it does seem odd that after just realising a three part film that DC has started to release a two part and so then join me as I review the film that see the Watchmen story enter the world of animation with the film in question being called simply just "Watchmen: Chapter I" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when his fellow hero The Comedian is killed anti-hero Rorschach sets out to find who is killing all of the worlds superheros. Now the  interms then interms f 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 not that bad as the plot was the exact same plot from both the comics and the 2009 film but that's also the problem and whilst it's not a problem with the film as they did only make one book called Watchmen it is something that does make the plot of the film come across as being predictable as we the audience have already seen it adapted in the 2009 live action film which does make this film come across as being really pointless as all your doing is waiting for all of the familiar plot beats to hot and that's really it and while yes the plot of this film is told in a way that's really more true to the comic book that doesn't stop it from feeling predictable and boring with the plot of this film not really being really rather entertaining nor is it really rather engaging either in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Matthew Rhys as Nite Owl , Katee Sackhoff as Silk Spectre and Titus Welliver as Rorschach. Also starring in this film is Troy Baker as Ozymandias , Michael Cerveris as Dr. Manhattan , Rick D. Wasserman as The Comedian , Adrienne Barbeau as Sally Jupiter / Silk Spectre , Corey Burton as Captain Metropolis , Jeffrey Combs as Moloch , John Marshall Jones as Hooded Justice , Yuri Lowenthal as Wally Weaver , Geoff Pierson as Nite Owl and Kari Wahlgren as Janey Slater.

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. Which given the actors that are involved with this film does make alot of sense as alot of this films both from a voice acting perspective and a live action perspective really are a bunch of really good actors and all of whom really do know how to act and as a result of that is the fact that they really would know how to turn in a really good performance in a film like this one as this is the kind of film that really does require alot of if not all of the films to bring there A game which is something that we do get to see in this very film with the acting that's in this very film really being helped by the films script as the script for this film is just so good that all this films actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.


Doing the animation for this film is the legends and the really greats that are currently over at Studio Mir. 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 not that bad as while yes the CGI in this film isn't the best with these characters being more suited to the kind of 2D animation that we got in Batman: The Animated Series this films animation wasn't as bad as it really good have been either and while it does rather admittedly take alot of getting used to when you do get used to it it's not something that you really notice and something that you do forget is even there alot of time but yes these characters really aren't well suited to 3D CGI as they look a little to good where as these characters should look a little rough round the edges as that's the type of the world that these characters live in and to have an animation style that goes against it just makes the animation in this film stand out but for all pf the wrong reasons tho.


For some strange reason DC really likes to make multipart films as this is now the third multipart film that they've released. With both this film and the Justice League: Crisis On Infinite Earths films being the only ones that really do deserve to be a multipart film as the Justice League X RWBY film really didn't need to be a two part film as that film only had enough plot for one film where as this film really does need both parts in order to tell it's story as if you did try and condense this films story to just the one film it would really harm the overall story as it would mean alot of the stuff that's important to the plot would have to be cut out of the film as the film only has a small amount of running time in order to tell it's story and as a result of that is the fact that this film really is one of the very few films that should be a two part film as there's so much in there from a plot perspective that to cut any of it out would be a disservice the story and with a story that's as legendary as the story of Watchmen is then the makers of this film really do owe it to the fans to it justice in someway and the best that they can do that is to make this film a two part film but that doesn't mean that every single direct to DVD animated film that DC makes should be a multipart film as tha6 is something that should be saved for the films where the plot demands it be a multipart film.

As this is a multipart film that does mean that this film does indeed fall into the same pitfalls that all multipart films fall victim to. As alot of this film is spent setting up things that won;t be payed off until Chapter 2 comes out next year which does make this film feel like it's a long trailer for part 2 and while yes this is also due to the fact that the comic book only told one story as this is an adaptation the makers of the film could have altered things around in the plot to make sure that this film didn't feel like a trailer for the next film as this is a big issue is it means that we the audience don't really have a reason to rewatch this film as we'd only be watching half of a story and while the makers of this film really couldn't help but make this film one long trailer for the second film there could have been some effort to make sure that at least some of things that get set up in this very film also get payed off in this film heck you even could have had the reveal of who killed The Comedian happen in this film only to then end the film with the reveal that the death of all of these heroes was just one small part of a bigger plan thus setting up the mystery for the second film and ending this film on a really good cliffhanger that would make the audience want to watch the second film as well.


If you've seen the 2009 film or even read the comics then you'll know that The Comedian and alot of the heroes. Aren't really good people as alot of them do kill innocent people for there own perverse sense of justice which does drive alot of them The Comedian included insane and as a result of that is the fact that the mystery of the films is a really good one as it means that we have alot of potential people who could want to see The Comedian dead and while the The Comedian might be the worse hero as a person this film does a solid job of also showing of his more softer side all of which do make him seem all the more human and come across as being more of a three dimensional character which does make sense as he is the films main character in a way but at the same time the film really doesn't give us a reason to care for Rorschach either as he just comes across as being a loner who is willing to go to those more darker aspects and kill innocent people and yet even tho he is the films main vocal point we're not given a reason to like him as a character which does make it hard for us the audience to form any kind of connection with him as well.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty three minuets and forty nine seconds. Which is a solid running time for this film as the film really does have the right amount of plot to really cover that amount of running time but at the same time tho this film could have done with being a few minuets shorter as the film does seem to drag on a bit in the middle with the film having scenes that really don't add anything to the plot of both films and are there just for the sake of being there and because of that the film does have some filler scenes when because of the multipart nature of the film it really doesn't need to be a multipart film as you could have every single scene be about advancing the overall plot of both films and no filler would be needed as this is a two part film and as such the only thing that the makers of this film would really need to do is pick a part where your going to end Part 1 and that's really it and where this film does make alot of sense from a plot point of view but we have to see alot of pointless scenes to get there but I will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is an action film that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that;s actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that;s actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that and. As this film really doesn't focus all that much on the action aspect of the film which does make sense as it this point in the plot there's not much action in it anyways and as such both of the action scenes that we get in this film really do look good and are a good example of how good this films 3D CGI animation could possibly when it's done right with the best example of this being the death of The Comedian as while yes his death scene was handled alot better in the 2009 film here his death takes full advantage of the fact that's an animated film and because of that is the fact that we get to see the characters doing things and moves that they couldn't possibly do in live action action and because of that is the fact that we a really good opening fight scene that really does set the overall tone for the rest of both of these films as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall while this is a solid that alot of people might like it's still just you stereotypical first part of a multipart film with it being worth staying until after the credits to see a nice little surprise and while that surprise adds nothing to this film it is still a fun little surprise 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 really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all pf the mages that I personally used in this very review well then bots and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally got all of the mages that I personally used in this very review fro the official DC Database fandom wiki page , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very film that I used in this very review being the really great Google Images simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very film and are really of course on Google Images are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

My SPOILER FILLED First Impressions Of The Tales Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TV Series


After coming back with a mildly successful movie last year the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are now back with a brand new animated series. With this series being based in the world of the previous movie and well as i've just seen the previous movie it was only about right that I give you my first impressions of the first six episodes of this show and so then join me I give you my SPOILLER FILLED first impressions of the show that sees a legendary actor not come back for this TV show with the show in question being called simply just "Tales Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" enjoy.

The plot of this show is when the turtles find themselves going up against a new foe they find there very brotherhood tested like it's never been tested before. Bow then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show 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 however at the exact same time tho the plot of this show isn't all that good either as it's a plot that really isn't all that interesting despite it's unique setup which does allow for some rather unique plots to be told and yet this show doesn't take full advantage of that idea as instead it just gives something that really does feel like it's being stretched out and instead feels like alot like something that would have been better of as the plot of a two part episode and not the plot to the whole entire show with the plot of this show being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this show is Micah Abbey as Donatello , Shamon Brown Jr. as Michelangelo and Nicolas Cantu as Leonardo. Also starring in this show is Brady Noon as Raphael , Inside Out 2 star Ayo Edebiri as April O'Neil , The Spectacular Spider-Man and The Brady Bunch Movie star Alanna Ubach as Bishop , Pete Davidson as Rod , Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Pigeon Pete , Carlin James as Hun , Jamila Velasquez as Angel and Fred Tatasciore as Splinter.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that;s actually featured / presented to us in this very show 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 show was in all honesty not that bad. Which given that alot of this shows actors are reprising their roles from the movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem it's not really surprising that they would turn in a good performance in this show but at the same time tho there acting still isn't that good and is only slightly better then the acting that we go from them in the movie with alot of the shows best acting oddly enough coming from this shows new cast members alot of whom are either some really good actors in there own right or some really good voice actors as well and would there for no how to turn in a good performance with the acting that;s in this shoe not really being helped by this shows scripts as the scripts for this episode are just so bad as they give absolutely none of this shows cast absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does hurt the overall quality of the acting that's in this very show.


Doing the animation for this show is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Titmouse Canada Animation. Now the interms of what I personally thought  felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show 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 show was in all honesty not that bad but at the exact same time the animation that's in this show wasn't all that good either as it was very choppy with this shows animation taking on style that's meant to remind people of a comic book which given the origins of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles does somewhat make sense but at the same time tho it's not something that's all that appealing to look at as what might work in a comic book might not work in any form of media  with this shows animation being a prime example of that as while yes the characters do have some really nice looking movements to them the show is also not that to look at either at with the shows animation not really helping that as the comic book style that this show is trying to emulate isn't something that works in the confides of this show as it just looks ugly.

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



For some reason the makers of this show thought it was a good idea to keep the turtles apart from each other for the shows first six episodes. With them only reuniting halfway through the sixth episodes which is something that just doesn't work as the turtles when at there best really work well because of the fact that there bouncing off of each each other and yet with this show there robbed of the chance of doing that because of the fact that they spend so much time apart from one another and while yes they do explain why the turtles aren't with each other in a way that really does make sense and it is something that does work for this version of the turtles it is something that still doesn't work for this version of the characters as we haven't had alot of time to really get to know to know these characters before this show with even Mutant Mayhem not really giving us a good idea of what the turtles personalities outside of the most basic personality traits and as a result of that really is the fact that having them be apart from each other this early on in this universes timeline really doesn't make that much sense but it is something that would work once we the audience have had the chance to really get to know all of the turtles as characters.

Even tho this show does have alot of the cast from Mutant Mayhem coming back to reprise there roles for some strange reason they chose to recast Splinter. With him in this show only speaking in vermin in order to please Scumbug which just serves as a cheap and lazy way to explain why they didn't get Jackie Chan back to play him and really nothing more then that as within these first six episodes Splinter only appears twice and doesn't play a role in the main plot which makes his inclusion come across as being pointless something that would have been fixed if the makers of this actually gave a damn about the turtles franchise as they even have Donatello actually say in the first episode of this show that he's not the IT guy this is despite the fact that the original shows opening lyrics state quite clearly that he does machines and while yes this is does play a part in the characters personal character arc for these first six episodes it's also something that shows that the current producers of the franchise don't really know the characters all that well either as Splinter even going by there own rules would try anything to get the boys to stay in with him due to the fact that he doesn't trust humans all that much something which was a plot point in Mutant Mayhem.


As this post is being based off of the first six episodes of this twelve episode series these first six episodes not only wrap up the plot but also start another one by the end of episode six. Which makes the fact that this show is twelve episodes long come across as it was meant to be released in to six episode releases but for some reason Paramount decided to release them both at the exact same time which is pointless as you then basically have two season worth of storylines to sit through when it would worked out much better if they released the first six episodes in one go ad then at a later date release the remaining six episodes with this not really being helped by the fact that even tho they redeem Bishop during episode six by having her help the turtles to defeat her own evil robots for some strange reason by the end of the episode they have her then turn evil again which even from a character point of view really doesn't make sense as her whole reason for hating the turtles was because of the fact that she believes that they stopped her from helping humanity due to them destroying her life's work thanks to the events of Mutant Mayhem which doesn't make her an interesting villain as it's just a very weak backstory with her becoming evil again by the end of episode six not really being helped by the fact that even the turtles themselves say to her that they love humanity and are trying to protect it as a result of that is the fact that her turning evil again just doesn't work on any level.

Now then this show has / had an exact grand total running tome of exactly no longer then twenty three minuets. Which is a the perfect running time for these episodes to have as these episodes really don't have alot there interms of plot to really cover anything longer then that as the plot of these six episodes is perfect for six episodes and no more then that with the first four episodes showing us the turtles on there own and episode five giving us Bishop's backstory with the turtles finally meeting back up during the shows sixth episode and yet even with a six episode count in order to tell it's story the show really doesn't take it's time to give us the audience a reason to care for it's characters something that it could have done given the fact that it has alot of episodes in order to tell it 's story with the show instead just rushing along to it's next plot point which might be because of each episodes running time but even so to make a story like this one we the audience should be given a reason to want to care for all of these characters ad while this might as well result in a bunch of filler scenes they would still give the characters some much needed character development as well but I will admit that this show really does have some really good pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is an actin show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us un this very show 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 show was in all honesty really good. With the action in this show being the mist creative part of this show as we get to see the turtles have fights in locations that we haven;t seen them have fights in before now and seeing them really find creative ways to take down all four the robots that are attacking them all of which feel true to there characters and all of which do work well for there respective episodes as well but the best action scenes in these first six episodes is the final fight in episode six as we get to see the turtles working together as a team with all of the alleys and foes that they've made during these first six episodes which does create a really and exciting action scene with that action and that episode as whole really feeling like that it should have been the final action scene and the final episode of this show as whole in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

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


Overall these first six episodes really weren't that bad but at the same time there also episodes that could have been alot better if alot more thought and care was put into this Mutant Mayhem universe with this show being a decent show that really could have been alot more better then what it actually was 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 show in this very post and as this is only my first impressions of the show as a whole there won't be a rating however if enough people want it then I will consider doing a review of the following six episodes.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post from the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from these very episodes that I used in this very review being the really great Google Images simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from these very episodes and are really of course on Google Images are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.
