Boruto: Naruto the Movie Dub Review

Hello there animation lovers and movie fans today i'm here to give you a review of an anime movie that has only just came out with an english dub and that movie is Boruto: Naruto The Movie so let's get it started.

The plot of this movie is Boruto Uzumaki is the son of Naruto Uzumaki the Seventh Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village. Having heard stories of Naruto's deeds as a hero Boruto wishes to surpass his father. Following Sarada Uchiha, Boruto meets his father's friend, Sasuke Uchiha and requests to be trained by him. To me this film is more of a father and son story story because you get to see Boruto and his dad bond throughout the movie and you get to see the hardships that that relationship goes through but tho the film has some issues when it regards pacing sections of the film drag alot.

The voice cast for this film includes Amanda C. Miller , Cherami Leigh , Maile Flanagan ,  Yuri Lowenthal , Robbie Daymond and many more i won't name all of the cast in this film because there's a lot but honestly the voice actors do a great job considering some of them are voicing new characters and are new to the franchise in terms of voices the only gripe i have is that for some reason Naruto now has a raspy deep voice which is really annoying to listen to especially when it comes to the films more lighthearted moments.

This film was animated by Studio Pierrot who have worked on all the other Naruto movies and the TV shows and to be honest the animation isn't that bad in the movie there's a lot of great character expressions and fluid movement. The character designs in this movie i thought were really good each character not only looks different but also has a different feel to them which was something that i liked.

Now this wouldn't be an action film if there wasn't any action and the action in this film i thought was handled really well there not just the the typical punch and kick but there's also elements of magic thrown in and you get to see the characters use their environment and that is something that i really like as it makes each action scene look and feel different from the one that came before it and they nearly always involve these little character moments as well which is great.

The music for this film was done by Yasuharu Takanashi who does a really great job in this movie i could not praise this guy enough for me tho the best piece of music is the track that plays during the first half of the third act it has a heavy rock vibe to it which i really freaking love.

Overall i would say that if you didn't watch any of the previous Naruto movies or TV shows then this is the movie for you it acts as the perfect jumping of point for new fans if you were a fan of the franchise then you guys will like it as well for me tho this movie is a solid an 8 out of 10

  

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers "White Light" Review

Hello again ranger fans here we are yet again with another ground breaking episode this one is ground breaking because it adds a fan favorite ranger and features the return of a legendary Power Ranger this is my review of the two part episode "White Light" lets begin.

So then the plot of this two part story is that the gang find out that Tommy will be back in town by the end of the week and Alpha and Zordon are busy with something secret and thus shut down all of the command center's defenses and so with all of that going on Lord Zedd decides to create a monsters to help take down the rangers for good. I have to admit this was a really good episode in terms of story i really can't fault it other then the fact that if i was in charge i would have down certain things different the story is well paced and is pretty epic.

Now i want name all of the cast since most of the cast in this episode were in the very first episode so joining the cast either from the back end of season 1 or the start of season 2 are Jason David Frank as Tommy Oliver (White Ranger), Ed Neil as Lord Zedd, Robert L. Manahan as the voice of Zordon, Carla Perez as Rita Repulsa, Barbara Goodson as the voice of Rita Repulsa and Tony Oliver as the voice of Saba. In terms of acting the series regulars have gotten better and i'm glad because this episode really needed good acting to help pull it off JDF kills it again as Tommy and his entrance as the white ranger is really freaking epic overall the acting was pretty much what you'd expect from a Power Rangers episode.

I have to admit that as much as i loved the white rangers entrance there was something that happend right after that really bugged me he takes of his helmet and then a few minuets later re-morphs to me that makes no sense right didn't he just put the helmet back on and why did Zordon make him the leader of the group that again makes no sense in terms of fighting he's got more skills then the rest of the team but in terms of being a ranger shouldn't that job go to one of the others maybe i'm thinking to much about this.

Now admittedly i forgot to mention the suits in my last review but the white ranger suit look freaking epic as hell i really love the golden parts on his helmet the original suits were great to look at but this one took what i liked about the originals and upped it to about 11 whoever came up with this suit well done and i hope you got a promotion.

This episode did something that i thought was really great and it's something that looked really creepy they turned of all the lights of the command center it's a small and simple thing and yet for this show i think it worked it looked like a set from a horror movie and i have to thank the makers for doing that.

I've been gushing about the episode so far but that doesn't mean there isn't stuff in there that i wish wasn't for starters there's a whole Bulk and Skull subplot which really goes know where and really only serves as filler the other thing is the power rangers get beat so easily in the first episode and it makes them look weak and that's not what you want to do when your making a superhero show.

Now then this is where things get interesting because the original suits come from Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger but all of the stuff featuring the white ranger comes from Gosei Sentai Dairanger which means that from now on when ever we see the team fighting it's all american footage and i have to be honest in this episode it was kinda hard to tell what was American and what was stock footage since Zedd was made for Power Rangers we know all of his scenes are American but does that also go for the fight scenes in this episode as well since he does send out his putties to attack the Rangers when there morphed.Speaking of the action scenes they were really done i thought we got to see alot of great moves done by the teens when there not morphed which serves to show how much stronger they have gotten over time.

Overall this was a really good two part episode it reintroduces Tommy as well as introducing the white ranger i give this episode a solid 7 out of 10

  

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers " Day Of The Dumpster" Review

Hey there guys you might not know this about me but i was and still am a Power Rangers fan and i thought with the new movie due out by the end of the month i thought i would look back at some of the key episodes now i want to make it clear i will not be doing this for every season only until we reach In Space nor will i be looking at the green with evil arc if it's multiple episodes then it has be three episodes since it would take to long to get through them all ok let us begin with the very first Power Rangers episode "Day Of The Dumpster".

Ok the plot of this episode is that an evil alien witch named Rita escapes her space dumpster prison which is located on the moon and vows to destroy the first planet she sees (earth) now it's up to Zordon who is a floating head in a tube and his robot assistant Alpha 5 to recruit a team of heroes to defend the world. This episode is really freaking fast paced no sooner are we introduced to Rita are we then seeing the teens teleported to the command center i was hoping that this episode would have been made as a two parter since it would make things more epic but since it wasn't i have to say that this episode is way to fast.

The main cast for the show and the episode are Austin St. John as Jason Lee Scott, (Red Ranger), The late Thuy Trang as Trini Kwan, (Yellow Ranger) Walter Emanuel Jones as Zack Taylor, (Black Ranger), Amy Jo Johnson as Kimberly Hart, (Pink Ranger), David Yost as Billy Cranston, (Blue Ranger) , David Fielding as Zordon , Machiko Soga as Rita Repulsa and Barbara Goodson as the voice of Rita Repulsa the actors i've listed are only a small handful who appears in the episode and for there first time out there not that bad yes at times the acting from the teens can be pretty bad but since this was episode 1 for me at least the acting was ok.

The writing in this episode i thought was very mixed because when you had something good like Zordon's speech explaining the powers you would have something bad for example most of the scenes on the moon palace but then again the writing on this show has never been that great the writing in the new series so far has been terrible but that didn't stop me from having fun with the episode.

Let's be honest there was only two why most of male audience watched the show 1) the action scenes 2) to see the hot pink ranger i belong to both of those and yes the action scenes in this episode are pretty good to be honest but like the story there also really rushed it's like there not only trying to do these really cool moves but there also rushing to get to the next part of the story it really bugged me.

Now this episode and the first and second series of Mighty Morphin got there footage from a show called Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger and while it won't be that obvious in later seasons of Mighty Morphin here it's painfully obvious what's stock footage shot in Japan and what's shot in America for instance when the teens first Morph they find them selves in the city with only a brief explanation as to why they are there and it's obviously not American footage it was almost laughable at how obvious it was.

I can't talk about this episode and not talk about the awesome intro and the even more awesome intro music Ron Wasserman really killed it with the opening music so much so that whenever someone thinks of Power Rangers they think of that awesome guitar and it's so great that they even used a remixed version of the song for the 2011 and 2013 series but you know what theme's even better the Bulk And Skull theme i'm kidding of course.

Overall for a first episode it wasn't that bad it did all the things a first episode should do it introduced the main heroes and villains and set up the story for the show but like i've mentioned it does have problems and sadly those problems keep it from being a perfect 10 so for me this episode is a 7 out of 10

    

How I Would Bring Back The Flintstones

The Flintstones was a great series from the sixties that lasted around 6 seasons and spawned many spin off shows , a theatrical animated movie and a few direct to video movies and TV Specials as well as two live action movies but for a long time there hasn't been a Flintstones TV series and now i'm going to let you all know how i would do it if i was in charge.

Now before it start there was going to be a reboot of The Flintstones a few years ago by Family Guy creator Seth Macfarlane but FOX who was going to produce the show didn't fall in love with the pilot script i think this was because the script might have had the typical Family Guy humor and that wouldn't work for The Flintstones so the first thing i would do is make it more drama heavy i think that if you make the show a family drama then it could work if you put all the things that make drama into the world of The Flintstones then you could have a hit on your hands.

The next thing i would do is i would make the show like Girl Meets World in that this show would serve as a sequel to the original show but would focus on the kids of Pebbles and Bam-Bam which we know they go on to have kids because two TV movies and a christmas special which featured the characters were made and if you focus in on there kids then it gives you a chance to introduce younger fans to the franchise while at the same time keeping in the older fans who are perhaps interested in seeing this new version of the show.

In terms of writing i would spend quite a bit of time in developing the kids since the show would focus on them it would make sense that the audience should not only get to know them but hopefully start to love them this would make the drama feel more reel and the comedy that much sweeter.

The last thing i would do is i would try to match the animation style of the original since while that show's animation isn't that good at the best of times it has a certain charm to it and that is something that i would like to carry over to this new show.

So there we go guys that is how i would reboot The Flintstones i've chose not to mention who i would cast in the roles because i have no idea how the characters would sound in my head but if you have any ideas then please let me know down below.

  

My Top 3 Scooby-Doo! Shows And Movies

Hello animation fans Scooby-Doo! is a franchise that has been going on since the sixties and has spawned many TV shows and movies and in this list i'm going to tell you what my top 3 of each are and if your favorite show isn't on hear then it's either lower down or i havn't seen enough episodes so sorry Mystery Incorporated fans.

Shows

3) What's New Scooby-Doo?

this show did a great job of not only rebooting the franchise but also giving it a good kick up the backside it's a show that new what it was and it knew what to update and what to leave alone plus it has a great theme song.

2) The New Scooby-Doo Movies

Apart the lieing title (these weren't movies they were extra long episodes) this show had great writing and it's done something that no cartoon did before it and that's have a different guest star (either dead or alive)every week.

1) Scooby Doo Where Are You!

It's the show that started it all without it's great writing and acting we wouldn't have the Scooby-Doo franchise and this one knew how to write a great mystery it's as iconic as Scooby himself.

Movies

3) Scooby-Doo! And WWE: Wrestlemania Mystery

as both a cartoon and a wrestling for me this was a must watch but even i was shocked by how good the voice acting from the WWE superstars was and it had a generally good story.

2) Scooby-Doo The 2002 Live Action Movie

I'm not affraid to say that i watched this movie alot growing up and when you compare it to it's 2004 sequel and it's two prequel which are bad and yes even this one is pretty bad but when compared to all of those this one looks like a freaking Oscar winning movie.

1) Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island

I admit i really havn't seen this one all the way through yet but here's were i give it credit it does something that none of the other entries did it show's the main group of friends broken up and honestly that's a great and interesting idea and it makes me wonder why the havn't done it since.

5 Live Action Shows That I Think Should Get A Cartoon Series

Hello there animation lovers everytime i've done a list i've always thought with my serious cap on well for this post not only have i taken that cap off i've also fed it to the dog so everything on this list is just for pure fun and i'll admit i don't have the plot for most of these worked out but that makes it more fun so hear we go with the 5 live action TV Shows that i think should get a cartoon series.

5) Sherlock

The recent UK updating of the classic Sherlock Holmes stories has gone on to become a ratings hit so for me it would make sense to make an animated version since there's tons of stories you could adapt and since there's years before each new series this cartoon could fill in that hole.

4) Doctor Who

Unlike Sherlock there has actually been two animated episodes of Doctor Who produced but they've never done a full animated series and since they animate older episodes every few years to me it's a no brainer and the fans have openly said that they want more adventures with the classic Doctor's so why don't the BBC give the fans what they want.

3) Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Unlike the other's on this list this one not only had a three minuet pilot made but also had several other scripts done and ready to go the only issue was finding a home for it but gosh darn it that will not stop me from hoping and praying that this gets made and this is perhaps the only one where i would say stick to the scripts that were made since the pilot was so freaking cool.

2) Orange Is The New Black

To be honest guys this is the only one where i don't know what you could do in the animated version of this show but i just think it would be pretty sweet to see the show in animated form you can even have the cast from the show voice there characters here and you can have it air on Netflix.

1) Game Of Thrones

Game Of Thrones the TV series has changed the way that TV shows are produced this show has movie quality writing , acting and directing so imagine all of that awesomeness but in a cartoon show and the best part is the story is already there in book form all the show makers would have to do is adapt the books. 

Dragon Ball Super Episode 1 Dub First Impressions

Hey there Dragon Ball fans i'm going to be doing something i havn't actually done before i'm going to be giving you my thoughts on the first dubbed episode of Dragon Ball Super so here we go.

Now before i start it proper i have to say that i did see some of the subbed episodes when the show first premiered but i stopped because those weren't the voices i was used to hearing but now i'm back watching it and i have to say it feels so good to hear those voices once again it was like music to the ears hearing Seam Schemmel as Goku.

Speaking of the voice cast i really liked hearing them as those characters once again every actor just knocked it right out of the park for me the only down side is the actual plot of this arc doesn't get really going until around episode 3 or 4 and this episodes feels like a catch up episode which was fun.

Now i'm going to try and not give away any spoilers in case you missed the subbed version because you were waiting for the dub but this episode apart from basically being a catch up episode served to set up the new status quo which i think it did a good job of doing.

Also without giving anything away when you get further into this arc you'll see why i put this picture here that's all i'm saying. It's good to have this show and it's good to hear those actors again i won't rank the episode but i will say if your a fan of DBZ then i recommend you watch this show.
