Sailor Moon 1994 TV Pilot Review

 

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

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

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

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty pretty OK at best. As the acting in the live action segments was on par with the acting in Power Rangers and the acting that we got in the animated segments was really alot better then what it really had any right to be but it doesn't help that this episodes script was just flat out bad with one of the characters having alot of personality to begin with.

Doing the animation as far as I can tell is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Toonmakers. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad with this episodes animation being very choppy in alot of places which just makes the whole animated part of the episode come across as being really rather cheap looking.

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

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

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

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

So now then as this is an action episode that means that I gave to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. With this episodes action being the kind of action that you'd expect to see in a kid nineties animated kids TV show and really nothing more then that which does make the action look pretty dated but it also makes the action look really creative as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this show is so bad that it makes the Japanese live action Sailor Moon TV show look good by comparison and that show really isn't all that good either at all in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that means that this very episode earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 1.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Sailor Moon fandom wiki page , the official Power Rangers fandom wiki page , Wikipedia and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the really wonderful Google Images as since all of the images that are currently up and featured / presented to us up and on the really great and really wonderful on Google Images are all really fairly high in quality and as well as them all being all really fairly freaking high in definition.

My First Impressions Of Tiny Toons Looniversity

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Now then as or where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post from the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page , the official Looney Tunes fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.

I Am Groot TV Series Season Two SPOILER FILLED Review

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Overall while this series was a bit of step down when compared to this shows first series it was still a hugely entertaining series and is an underrated Marvel Studios TV Series in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all pf the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very series in this very review and as such that means that this very series earns itself a grand old score of exactly an 8.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very post being the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the really great freaking the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page are all of course really fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as them all really being very fairly freaking high in definition.

Tiny Toon Adventures "A Quack In The Quarks" Review

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

The plot of this episode is when his show boating gets him kidnapped by aliens who want him to defeat an evil tyrant it's up to Babs , Buster and Hampton to rescue Plucky and save Planet X before it's far to late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad altho I will admit that this episodes was also very rather on the thin side of things as well but it was still a very rather entertaining and engaging plot as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

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

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. Which really shouldn't be that much of a surprise as this episodes cast is made up of  bunch of really good voice actors and actresses and it just goes to show that for this shows early run they always had really good acting in it with this episodes script being really good and so all the cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written and boom a good performance will come out of them really naturally.

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

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

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

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

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

So now then as this is a comedy show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. While this episode isn't as funny as the first episode was it was still a really funny episode that had a surprising adult joke which really did catch me of guard as it was a really funny joke that came out of nowhere and it's a joke that will go over alot of kids heads as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall Tiny Toons Looniversity has alot of live up and if the leaked episode of the shows fifth episode is anything to go by then we are in for one heck of a bumpy ride as we make our way back tom Acme Looniversity in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad thing that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that means that this very episode earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Star Wars fandom wiki page , the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very post being the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the great freaking the official Tiny Toon Adventures fandom wiki page are all really fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as them all really being very fairly freaking high in definition.

Batman: Return Of The Caped Crusaders Film Review

 

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

The plot of this film is when The Catwoman , The Penguin , The Joker and the Riddler reunite and start a scheme to duplicate the entire world it's up to Batman and Robin to stop them before it's far to late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really fun and goofy as all heck with this films plot really being the type of plot that you'd expect to find in an episode of the classic Batman TV show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Overall this was a really fun filled that all Batman bat-fans really should check out and heck i'd even recommend showing this film to young kids to try and get them into Batman as this film is just that good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that means that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly an 8.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Batman fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the great Google Images are really all fairly high in quality and as them all really being really being fairly freaking high in definition.

Doctor Who: 42 Review

 

The third series of modern Doctor Who is one that for one reason or another gets overlooked by alot of Doctor Who fans myself included. Well I thought that i'd take another look from an episode of this show just to see if this series is worth overlooking or if there are more hidden gems then just Blink to be found in this series of the show and so then join me as I review the episode that has a really very on the nose environmental message in the episode itself with the episode in question being called simply just "42" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is The Doctor and Martha finds themselves stranded on a spaceship and have a little over forty two minuets to stop the spaceship from crashing into the sun and saving the lives of all of the crew on board it. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad with this episodes plot being rather simple but at the same time it lacks the emotional punch that an episode like this one really should have in order to make it fully work out for the best in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Starring in this episode is David Tennant as The Doctor , Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones and Adjoa Andoh as Francine Jones. Also starring in this episode is Eastenders star Michelle Collins as Kath McDonnell , Where the Heart Is star William Ash as Riley Vashtee , Anthony Flanagan as Orin Scannell , Matthew Chambers as Hal Korwin , Vinette Robinson as Abi Lerner , Gary Powell as Dev Ashton , Rebecca Oldfield as Erina Lessak and Elize Du Toit as The Sinister Woman.

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 both David and Freema turning in some good performances which is to be expected but what was';t expected was the fact that the episodes guest cast more then hold their own acting wise when acting against either David or Freema which only raises the quality of thew acting in this very episode.

Doing the CGI for this episode is the legends and the greats that are 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 episode 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 a very mixed bag of affairs as we did get one or two good looking CGI effects shots in this episode but those were very quickly and very often followed u by two or three bad looking CGI effects which really haven't aged all that well.

From little information that I can gather about this episode this episode did go through some very minor changes from script to screen with the original name of the ship being SS Icarus. This was however changed when producers learned that the film Sunshine which has a very similar premise to this episode was going to have it's main ship called Icarus this is something that would have been a cool thing and I can see why writer Chris Chibnall included it in his script as just like the Greek god Icarus the human characters flew to close to the sun but at the same time it would have been a bit on the nose with it's theme if they did stick with that name.

Speaking of being a bit to on the nose this episode just like Sunshine also has a very heavy handed environmental message. This is something that could have been removed from the episodes script sand you wouldn't have to change a single line of dialog but for some reason Chris Chibnall really wanted to hammer it home what kind of message he wanted in this episode instead of doing something subtle and clever like they would have done in the classic series here tho they went the opposite and it is something that I really hated abut the episode as it really does come out of nowhere and it comes across as being really forced as well.

What I really loved about this episode is that we got to see The Doctor himself get effected by the same virus that has already killed one of the crew on the ship. As it's something that now says to us the audience that if this character can get effected then maybe other main characters can as well and so now we have alot more tension that wasn't there previously and having The Doctor openly act scared only hit home just how dangerous this threat really is which in turn makes the episodes villain all the more scary as there now making the one person who shouldn't be afraid of them in the slightest be terrified of them.

Now then while I cannot for the absolutely live of me remember whatever this episodes running time even was I do know that this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of roughly forty five minuets. Which is a great running time for this episode to have as the episode doesn't have alot there interms of either plot or story to cover a longer running and plus when you add in the fact that the episode has a ticking bomb element to it it means that every single scene has to be about advancing the episodes plot and still tell a really good story and I will admit that this episode does have some really good pacing to it as well.

So now then since this is a drama that means that I have to actually talk about the actual drama 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 drama that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. As this episodes drama was really well handled as it was all drama that was really built up all through out the episode and it's this episodes drama that leads to Martha's best scene in the whole entire episode where she calls his mum as she things that she's going to die just to tell her that she loves her and while that scene clashes with the tone of the rest of the episode it was still a really good scene that's really well written and acted in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this was a pretty bad episode in alot of respects but it was also a good episode in other respects as well and is a good example of just how mixed this third series well and truly 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 episode in this very review and as such that means that this episode earns 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 as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . Uk , the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the great Google Images are really all fairly high in quality and as them all being really being fairly freaking high in definition.

Last Of The Summer Wine: Getting Sam Home Review

 

There are some shows out their that go on for so long that they get fans across many generations across many decades. With the show that i'm talking about today being one such show as this show lasted a whopping thirty one series with the show itself lasting around thirty to forty years well what not alot of people is that show spawned a feature length special and that's what i'm going to be talking about today and so then join me as I review the episode that sees three friends try to bring someone home with the episode in question being called simply just "Getting Sam Home" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is when someone called Sam gets into trouble at his girlfriends house it's up three friends to get him home again before his wife finds out. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad as it was a rather simple which is common place for this show with the plot also being really enjoyable as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this episode is Bill Owen as Compo , Wallace & Gromit star Peter Sallis as Clegg and Porridge star Brian Wilde as Foggy. Also starring in this episode is Lynda Baron as Lily Bless Her , Olive Pendleton as Sybil , Peter Russell as Sam , Muriel Rogers as Mamsy , Jim Marsh as Dadsy , John Comer as Sid , Jane Freeman as Ivy , Joe Gladwin as Wally Batty , Kathy Staff as Nora Batty , David Williams as Mr. Fairburn , Johnny Leeze as 'Our kid' Colin , Max Beesley Snr as Colin's Mate , Christine Cox as Cousin Olive , Ken Kitson as PC Cooper , Bill Croasdale as Police Sergeant and Tony Melody as The Voice Of Sid.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. Which for this show isn't all that new as this shows cast members is usually made up of a bunch of really talented and funny actors and actresses and it really does help that the script for this this episode is so good that all the cast have to do is just say the words as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally.

This episode started the trend of having ninety minuet or longer TV specials of British comedies as before this episode the longest any special episode of comedy would be is sixty minuets long. This is something that for alot of cases does work as it allows them all to tell much more epic stories then what they could usually do but at the same time tho it also means that alot of the episodes just end up with a ton of filler that add nothing to any of the episodes but as someone who is a die hard fan of Only Fools And Horses it was nice to see where this tradition started as it is something that Only Fools did for alot of their Christmas specials.

Believe it or not this episode or film or whatever it is that you want to call it is based of the novel of the exact same name. With both the book and every single episode of Last Of The Summer Wine being written by Roy Clarke while the book is very sadly hard to find a copy of nowadays thanks to a review on the books Amazon UK page the book does expand upon certain scenes from the episode with somethings being made alot more clearer in the book then they are in the TV version some of which adds to certain jokes whilst others make characters and their story in this episode seem alot more tragic then what they already are.

From what little information I can gather this episode was always meant to be a made for television production. With star Bill Owen taking a copy of the book to series director and producer Alan J. W. Bell and suggested that the novel would make for a great TV special and he's not wrong as the story is more fitting for an episode of the show then what it would be for a theatrically released film as it's a storyline that's more in line and in keeping with the shows more relaxing nature both of which make it a perfect special to be broadcast over the Christmas holidays with special not really having anything in it that will upset or even really offend anybody whatsoever.

To me it's oddly entertaining that alot of people in the village no of this affair including Sam's wife as well. This is something that would be a long running joke within the show itself as the show did have characters that were having affairs but everybody knew about it despite both of the people having the affair trying to keep it a secret heck the show would introduce three characters not long after this special where that was one of their only jokes and it's a joke that still works as the joke isn't them having an affair it's how the husband is going to get caught that makes the joke work with this episode showing what happens when the husband is on death's door and still having the affair that led him to his current and final predicament.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty seven minuets and forty seconds. Which is almost three times the length of an average episode of the show with the show having an average running time of around twenty seven minuets and to this episodes credit it does make the most of that running time but at the same time it doesn't really have alot their interms of plot to cover that large amount of running time with the episode basically repeating itself around the halfway mark all of which just makes me wish that this episode was a tad bit shorter but I will admit tho that this episode does have some pretty good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that means that I gave to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in his very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. With this episode and the shows humor in general being very gentle and very family friendly with alot of the episodes jokes still managing to get a smile out of me but at the same time tho there are some jokes that really haven't all that well but those are very few and far between in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this wasn't a bad episode of this truly iconic sitcom and it's one that I think alot of British will love and that alot of Americans will feel very in different towards in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that means that this very episode earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 9 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . Uk , Wikipedia and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images as since all of the images that are all currently up and of course featured / presented to us on the great Google Images are all really fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.
