Great Purchase

Placebo is amazing. And this is a great CD to own. If you are a Placebo fan, you must own this CD. Not just because it's their first CD, but also because of the song "Nancy Boy." This one has more of a raw punk feeling to it then the band's later albums. But I enjoy all of Placebo's music, and you will probably enjoy every song on this CD.
What's great about it: Great Songs
What's not so great: Only 10 Songs. I'm a little greedy.

Great Show!
on June 24, 2008
Posted by: Lexa
This show is hysterical and I'm glad it's finally out on DVD. However, I was hoping that the DVD would include either interviews with the cast or outtakes. I mean, who wouldn't want to see what the cast looks like now? Commentaries are a little annoying on DVDs. They're usually dull and have no point other than filler, but Weird Science managed to have some interesting tidbits in theirs. The DVD also has a quiz you can take on Wierd Science. I thought it was fun, but then again, I knew the answers. It would be a very different story if I got the questions wrong.
What's great about it: Very funny with informational commentaries and an interactive quiz.
What's not so great: Extras are lacking cast interviews.

DVD Release of the Year!
on April 25, 2008
Posted by: Lexa
This Robin Hood series from the 1980's has finally been released in the US. It has charm and a mythical atmosphere that other shows have yet to capture. It made advances in the Robin Hood mythology that other Robins have since copied. It includes the two seasons in which Michael Praed plays Robin. It also comes with a fifth disc, full of extras. Most notable are the two featurettes, one in which most of the cast look back into the filming. Definitely worth buying if you remember it from the 80's.
What's great about it: Includes the first (and best) two seasons of the series.
What's not so great: Cheap budget.

Very Chilling Tale
on October 19, 2007
Posted by: Lexa
This is the only movie I can think of that was truly suspenseful. I was at the edge of my seat the whole time. Just when you thought it was all over, something pops out and pulls you back in. This is a very captivating movie. It's full of surprises and very memorable scenes. This is not your typical blood and guts horror. This is very chilling and not to be missed.
What's great about it: Suspenseful

Scariest Halloween Movie
on October 17, 2007
Posted by: Lexa
There's few horror movies that are actually scary, but Halloween manages to frighten the audience. Perfect to watch on Halloween, but also great on any other night.
What's great about it: Jamie Lee

Columbia/Tri-Star's DVD release of this 1985 cult horror favorite features a clean-looking, crisp-sounding transfer of the film, but remains a let-down thanks to a lack of special features. Beyond simply owning this great horror-comedy in the DVD format, the only real reasons to purchase this version is to see the letterboxed version of the film (in its original 2.35: 1 aspect ratio) on side one and to be able to hear the heavily '80s-influenced soundtrack in Dolby Surround Sound (English track only). Unfortunately, those are all the extras this disc has to offer unless you've been dying to catch the film in French or Portuguese. The lone addition is the original theatrical trailer which gives away most of the film's ending. The picture quality is excellent and Richard Edlund's special effects are captured in the ideal technological display. Side two also features the full-screen version of the film for those averse to letterboxing.

Best Horror Movie to Watch!
on October 14, 2007
Posted by: Lexa
This is a movie classic! It may not be scary, but it is definitely fun to watched. A teen spies on his new neighbor and discovers that he's a vampire, but no one believes him. The cast is great and Roddy McDowall shines as Peter Vincent, who's an actor that use to play a vampire hunter. Charley, the male lead, and Amy, the female lead, are funny and cute together. There is a sequel which is good too, but this is much better. Fright Night is an outstanding movie!
What's great about it: Roddy McDowall is awesome!

BEST PURCHASE EVER!
on October 13, 2007
Posted by: Lexa
I was extremely happy with this purchase. You get two of the best musicals ever made. This is definitely a great buy for any RHPS fan or anyone who likes a 'different kind' of musical. It's a low price for having two movies and a lot of extras. The interactive menu is also pretty cool. You won't be disappointed.
What's great about it: Two great movies sold together!

Great series
on October 12, 2007
Posted by: Lexa
This series is incredibly funny. The episode "Grapes of Wrath" is hysterical and I love watching how Bernard met Manni. If you enjoy shows that make you laugh, then this is one for you. It's very orginal and very well acted. It's definitely worth the watch.
What's great about it: So funny!
What's not so great: May even be too funny!

Greatest Cartoon Ever!
on October 11, 2007
Posted by: Lexa
This is a great series. This season even has a couple of those episodes that are not allowed to air on TV anymore. There's even a Christmas and a Valentine episode, for those of you who like holiday episodes, like myself! I remember this series from my childhood and I love re-watching it now. And children nowadays will fall in love with this series too.
What's great about it: Complete Season 2
What's not so great: Needs extras

This triple-disc set provides convenient one-stop shopping for fans of The Young Ones, compiling both of its seasons plus a handful of worthwhile extras into one compact set. The set devotes one disc a piece to each season of the series and allows the viewer the option to play the episodes separately (each is broken down into six chapter stops) or all in a row. Video and audio quality are only average due to the show's rather low-budget nature, but Warner has done a solid job of preserving these elements in the cleanest possible style. The Young Ones: Every Stoopid Episode also offers a bevy of bonuses on its third disc that are likely to please the show's hardcore fans. First up are "Creating The Young Ones" and "The Young Ones and the '80s," a pair of excerpts from BBC documentaries that use interviews with the cast and crew to explain the show's genesis and significance in British culture. Both are insightful and revealing, leaving the viewer wishing the producers had included the full documentaries they came from. This disc also throws in the pilot episodes for Filthy Rich & Catflap and Bottom, a pair of later BBC series that were penned by Ben Elton and feature alumni from The Young Ones. Neither show is as consistently inspired as The Young Ones, but both are fairly entertaining and offer the show's fans the opportunity to see the gifted cast tackling different roles. Rounding out the bonus disc is a brief but informative set of talent bios that provides the viewer with additional credits and biographical info for the supporting cast and musical acts that appeared on The Young Ones. All in all, The Young Ones: Every Stoopid Episode is a convenient and reasonable well-packaged way to get acquainted with this delightfully anarchic comedy series.

Anyone who is a fan of the Young Ones will love this DVD set. It has an entire disc devoted to extras. I love that they included pilots from other shows they worked on, such as Bottom. You get every episode of the Young Ones and enough extras to keep you occupied.
What's great about it: Excellent extras!
What's not so great: Would love to see bloopers.
