Playboy - California Girls (2000) Review

Playboy - California Girls (2000)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Playboy comes out with a new video called California Girls. It has Suzanne Stokes (POM 02/00) on the Cover. Sounds like a pretty hot video, with fresh new faces right? Not really. Suzanne's segment lasted one minute and forty-five seconds. That's it! I timed it. The scene shows Suzanne in various skimpy bikini's, and every once in a while the camera pans past her and she isn't wearing the bikini. Before you know it, the scene is over.
Playboy defines this video on the back of the cover as a collection of playboy's greatest California scenes from the past. There's no new stuff here. Ninety percent of the video consists of segments from previous videos. Maybe it's 100%, and I just haven't seen all the scenes before. Some of the scenes date back to the late 1980s and early 1990s. As you can imagine, this results in very poor and grainy DVD quality for these segments.
There are scenes from more recent videos, such as Playboy's Pajama Party. The scene of the girls lying around the pool from the Pajama Party is included on this video. Nice segment, but I already have it. Also included in this video, are various scenes from the Wet and Wild videos. Once again, some of them are nice, but it's old stuff. The only thing new in the video, as far as I can tell, is Suzanne's short appearance and a four or five minute scene featuring Summer Altice. Summer's segment shows her running and posing on the beach in and out of a bikini. This was probably the highlight of the video because it was new, or should I say, it's new to me. This segment will probably appear in the 2002 Playmate Calendar.
Overall, not much if anything is new here. If you are a collector, you should probably pass. If your new to Playboy video's, you can get a decent assortment of scenes with beautiful naked women.

If I was stranded on a desert island and could pick only two DVD's to keep my going through the hard times...these would be the DVD's!!!!
I find it hard to believe that with today's technology, people find it difficult to watch a DVD in Zone 4. Refer to your DVD player's user manual to select the Zone or go online and see what information you can use.
Being married to a Colombian woman and to be from North America, Andres comedy transcends generations and cultures. His comedy covers all aspects of life, love, and family and it doesn't matter where you are from, what your nationality may be or which generation you are, Andres captures not only the Colombian people but the global population with perfection!
Colombians...you should be very proud of Andres, your country, and your people!!!

How could any Scooby fan not like this movie. The action picks up within the first 5 minutes and never lets down. Some parts of this film actually are scary. Scooby and Shaggy encounter a headless horseman, a ghost wolf, caped skeleton, huge gorilla, and even a dead Confederate general (sporting the Confederate flag right there on hat). The scenery of the film is another characteristic that makes it great. It ranges from the haunted mansion to secret Civil War supply caves. The new movies that Warner Bros. are releasing are getting cheesier and cheesier. They need to write another script like this for a hit movie, and livin' "down south", you like this film even more.......

Santa Claus Is Coming to Town (2007) Review

Santa Claus Is Coming to Town (2007)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First, let's clear up one fact, this is NOT Claymation.It is STOP MOTION animation. Claymation has figures made of clay that are filmed one frame at a time. Stop motion has 3 dimentional puppets that are animated one frame at a time like the Ray Harryhousen figures in King Kong, Jason and the Argonaughts etc. There is a vast differance in the techniques.
This fact aside, "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" is the very best of the wonderful Rankin/Bass specials. The designer for the series of holiday specials, Paul Coker, has done an exceptional job with these delightful wooden and plastic creations. We see Kris Kringle develope from a foundling baby to the Santa figure so well known today. Each stage of his development is wonderful. But then, each of the characters is designed and executed perfectly. Watch the delightful changes of the Winter Worlock from mean and evil to mellow and fun.
All the animation is smooth and precise giving the excellent illusion that these figures are actually alive.
The songs are excellent, from the familiar "Santa Claus is Coming To Town" to the lovely "My World Is Beginning Today" sung by Jessica, the future Mrs. Santa. (For some strange reason, this delightful song is often cut when this production is shown on TV, luckily it is included in the tape.)
The script couldn't be better giving explanations for most of the Santa legends such as how he got his name, how reindeer can fly, why he comes down chimneys and fills stockings. It can make a believer out of even Ebenezer Scrooge.
This has been my absolute favorite Christmas video since I first saw it many years ago on TV. It was one of the reasons I bought my first VCR so I could make a tape of it before it was commercially available. I even have an old LP recording of the complete show. So, do I recommend it, the answer is a resounding YES!!!!!

Mega Movers - Massive Bridges (History Channel) (2007) Review

Mega Movers - Massive Bridges (History Channel) (2007)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
"Massive Bridges" tells the story of two large bridges given new lives after being moved to new locations. The first was in Iowa - a 130-year-old road bridge no longer able to carry the weight of today's vehicles. It was moved 56 miles to provide a new foot bridge in an Iowa park.
Army Chinook helicopters from the Iowa National Guard were used to accomplish this, with crews gaining the experience as part of another training mission. Ground crews had to hook up bridge sections to the hovering Chinooks while underneath in its "hurricane-wind" downdraft (about 140 mph). The Chinook's twin 4,900 h.p. motors strained to maximum power to move the largest single section of the three.
In Kansas City, an 1890 abandoned and rusty railroad bridge was to be moved to a new location, also to serve pedestrians. The 237' 1840-design bridge weighed 290,000 lbs. and had to be split in half, then transported on 48-wheel trailers. The railroad traffic was halted for six hours to allow the bridge to be placed onto the trailers and moved away. Moving through parts of the old downtown then required 100 electricians to take down and replace light fixtures and overhead wiring.

Bridges move people and cargo daily, but what happens when the bridge itself needs to be moved? In this episode, we see how two very different bridges are moved--using two very different methods. In Missouri, local bridge preservationists attempt to transport a 137-ton railroad bridge right through the heart of downtown Kansas City. And in Iowa, the National Guard rallies to save a 129-year-old bridge using one of the most modern mega-moving tools available: a Chinook Helicopter. Will our Mega Movers succeed in preserving these beloved bridges for future pedestrians to use?

If you can revisit a town full of smart colorful, quirky characters every single week, you would watch the Gilmore Girls. If you missed any of the episode or would like to watch the episodes over and over again (like I do) so you can catch the witty dialogue, you would get this DVD collection covering the first two seasons. And it is well-worth getting the DVD just to be able to feel transported into that small town cozy banter anytime you feel like it rather than wait for a rerun.

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing - Complete Operations Boxed Set (2000) Review

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing - Complete Operations Boxed Set (2000)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Gundam Wing is not just my favorite Mecha. Nor is it merely my favorite show. It is my favorite ANYTHING. Granted, it may not be for everyone, but it is definitely the deepest show I've ever seen on television. I have watched the entire show through at least twice, and some episodes I have seen more than a dozen times (Portrait of a Ruined Country and The Gundam They Called Zero are two of my favorites). This show is all about three things.
First and foremost, Gundam Wing is about the politics of war. There are so many plot twists that if you miss a single episode you may get completely lost. What starts out looking like your average show (good guys fight bad guys, good guys beat bad guys, repeat) quickly changes. Within the first 10 episodes, the main character will try to attack innocent people, the world government will be overthrown, and our heroes will start to wonder who exactly their enemy is. As the series goes on, things just get more and more complicated as military organizations are created, destroyed, and double crossed.
The second thing this series is all about is action. In every episode there will be Mech battles, and some of them are truly spectacular. Every once in a while, one of the Gundams will do something so cool, the moment just leaves you thinking "Whoa." And as the series goes on, the battles get more and more complex, and more and more heated.
But the third thing this series has going for it is character development. Treize Kushrenada is my idea of what would happen if James Bond became the leader of Spectre. Is he really evil, or just misunderstood? He eventually finds himself an outdated dinosaur, clinging to ideals that have becomes outdated with the times. Lady Une is one of the best examples of a person with split personalities I've ever seen. At first you hate her, but as you come to understand why she does what she does, you actually come to feel sorry for her.
This series has many great characters played by great voice-actors. Heero is great. Relena is solid. Even Hildi and Noin are great. But my two favorite characters in the series have got to be Dororthy and Zechs. Dorathy plays every scene with a perfect hint of sarcasm that constantly keeps you guessing if she's being sincere, or laughing inside at someone's actions. And then there is Zechs Marquise...
In the English version of Gundam Wing, Brian Drummond gives the single greatest piece of voice-acting I've ever seen in my life. He is PERFECT as Zechs Marquise. Zechs is a complex character. And I really feel that's he's the one that holds the series together. He's 19 year old who talks with an icy voice. He's ALWAYS serious. The only thing that matters to him is honor. And in his quest to do the right thing, he is forced to betray his friends, protect his family, come close to death, and even kill his own men. But like a tragic hero out of a Shakespearian tragedy, he is trapped by his actions. Never doing nothing, and never quite taking enough action, he lets a bad situation escalate until it's completely out of control and he's completely lost his mind (or has he?). Zechs is the perfect tragic hero/villain (depending on your point of view).
Some have complained about the animation in this show, but personally I love it. The watercolor style backgrounds and excellent Mecha designs are a winning combo in my book. I also really love the music.
If you love a complex political drama with great action and characterization, you owe it to yourself to give Gundam Wing a try. If you still have doubts, search the net and download the long toonami promo (the best promo or trailer I have ever seen for anything). Suit up!

STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE - COMPLETE SERIES (2001) Review

STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE - COMPLETE SERIES (2001)
Average Reviews:

Caveat emptor / buyer beware!
This is just a note to people considering buying "Star Trek: Enterprise The Complete Seasons 1-4" on DVD from certain Amazon sellers.
If you see the Star Trek: Enterprise DVD collection in a single box rather than in four separate boxes (one box per season), it's likely an Asian import edition rather than from the studio.
Especially beware the appellation "the Chosen Collection" which was copied from the complete collector's edition of Joss Whedon's TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The Buffy "Chosen Collection" is official while the Star Trek: Enterprise "Chosen Collection" is not.
Furthermore, if the DVD set mentions it's region free, then it almost certainly is an Asian import, because the studio does not have a region free version of Star Trek: Enterprise on DVD (at the time of this review).
It's true the Asian import edition will be considerably cheaper, and as I mentioned region free, but there are drawbacks as well. For example, the audio and video quality suffers relative to the regular edition. Also, if there's a scratch or other slight defect on one of the DVDs, most of the sellers won't refund the buyer's money or replace the DVD(s). Some might, but it could be tricky (and perhaps despite their claims to the contrary). Not to mention that purchasing an Asian import means the money goes to the Asian distributor and its affiliates rather than to, say, the cast or crew or anyone else on the actual production team -- which in turn could presumably be funneled into bringing back Star Trek (although it's debatable).
And please make sure to read Oren D. Applequist's helpful comment below regarding World Express Mail Service (EMS).
Anyway, obviously people are free to do what they like, but I'm mentioning all this so buyers can at least be aware of the risks.

When Dinosaurs Roamed America (2001) Review

When Dinosaurs Roamed America (2001)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Five years ago, I probably would have given When Dinosaurs Roamed America a rave review. It is a good dinosaur special, well done overall and with interesting effects. But in the post-Walking with Dinosaurs era, it's a bit of a letdown. The animation is not as good, nor is the writing as sharp.


One other note: John Goodman is really not up the level of either Kenneth Branaugh (British version of Walking with Dinosaurs as well as the DVD version) or Avery Brooks (the version of Walking With Dinosaurs shown on the Discovery Channel). The latter two treat it as a serious nature special. Goodman's narration makes it sound like he's narrating a children's TV special, not a nature special.

My kids (1.5 yrs and 3.5 yrs) learned of Brum one early morning when we chanced upon it on the Discovery Kids channel. It's really amazing. I am not sure why they love it, but they do. All about this little antique car that 'saves the day in big town' in each episode (his name is Brum), the episodes are all live-action (ya gotta love that!) and filled with music. Oddly, I saw BRUM on sale at a radio shack store as a radio-controlled car, so I bought one for the kids. It's one of those shows they ask for in the morning now, so I was thrilled to see the videos hit the shelves.

OH MY GAWD!!!! How do they do that!? This slick video of "organ origami" is a hilarious account of Simon Morley & David "Frendy" Friend's act that premiered in Melbourne, Australia. These two well-endowed wonders twist their willys into all sorts of shapes from a hamburger, hot dog, snail, pelican, wind surfer, to the Eiffel Tower and Loch Ness Monster! YOUCH! I bet that smarts! Unabashedly and unshamefully honest, this duo does live on stage, totally naked what some guys only imagine or do behind closed doors. The DVD also includes a "how-to" chapter that illustrates the fine art of genital manipulation. Learn how to do the infamous hamburger, snail, 3 wood, and other wonders of willydom! This is a non-sexual presentation even though there is total male frontal nudity and genital manipulation. Presented in documentary form, this film recounts the story of the origins of the act up to present performances with road companies at major festivals throughout the world. Not for the easily-offended, embarassed, or faint-of-heart, this video is hilarious and leaves you wondering two things: 1.) How'd they do that? & 2.) What are they going to do next? A few re-enactments borrowed from "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert", shows Simon dressed only in a Silver lame cape standing on top of his Combi as Frendy drives through the Australian Outback and him and Frendy standing at the edge of King's Rock au naturel. A true camp classic, a great edition to the collection of rare and unusal DVD's....

RUSSIAN SEXY FITNESS MODELS 1 and 2
DON'T DO IT! WASTE OF MONEY! Nothing erotic here, as they claim. There is absolutely NO nudity in this video and it has nothing to do with fitness. There is NO "bonus material" as they claim on the cover. The entire video is LESS THAN 25 MINUTES LONG. But, considering the footage on this DVD, 25 minutes is way too long. Much of the video is scratchy and blurred, I guess they were going for an old time projector "special effect" look, for whatever reason. NOTE TO PRODUCERS EVERYWHERE: Skip the cheezy "special effects" and just show the ladies! I will never buy another product from these people again, they have no right to be in the video biz.
You'll find more "erotic excitement" paging through the woman's underwear pages of the Sears catalog than you'll find in this video. I don't want to slam the models here, but I doubt they are even Russian, just out of work actresses using "made up" Russian names. This low-budget production couldn't even afford to pay them enough to get naked, how could they afford to find real Russians?
I actually considered trying to sell my copy as "used" before giving it a bad review, but then I decided to do the right thing and warn all of you not to buy this piece of crap. So many productions out there are completely misleading with their video cover pictures and author reviews. It is up to us to inform and warn each other about terrible videos such as this series.
In fact, if you are stranded alone on a deserted island with just a generator, a TV, a DVD player, and either "Russian Sexy Fitness Models" DVD, Vol. 1 or 2, you may try hanging yourself with the power cords after watching this video. But don't do that, don't waste your valuable time watching it, try this instead, scratch a rescue note onto the DVD disc, fling it out into the ocean, then maybe a big fish will eat it, then maybe a fisherman will catch that fish, clean it find your note and rescue you.

Thank God for Kylie Minogue.
When compared to the recent DVD/cable television extravaganzas mounted by Madonna, Janet Jackson and Britney Spears, the Aussie powerhouse emerges as the clear winner. Madonna looks so deadly serious onstage, the effect is not unlike watching a storm trooper in drag going through rather fey combat moves. Janet is only slightly more animated, and can barely manage to keep her breath as she attempts to sing live to her synchronized dance moves. Britney...well, give the girl time. However, the almost complete lack of live vocals (except on the ballads--where the full extent of her producers' talents are plainly [and painfully] audible) is inexcusable.
Kylie, on the other hand, sings live for her entire, exhilirating, nearly 2 hour show, and sings WELL--it can't be easy to maintain your breath control while bouncing around in six-inch kitten heels, yet the diminuative diva manages to carry it off brilliantly. She also is having FUN onstage, and that sense of joy and carefree exuberance carries over to the audience.
The main strength in the Minogue camp (emphasis on "camp") is Kylie's refusal to take herself, or her stardom, too seriously. Oh, there's no doubting that Kylie is a true, blazing, God-given Star; she has charisma, talent, beauty and charm to spare. But her genuine niceness, not to mention her fondness for keeping her tongue firmly in cheek, are breaths of fresh air when confronted with "serious artists" like Madonna, or assembly-line, mass-market popsters like Britney.
From the 1940's-musical-style opener ("Love Boat") to the kitschily fabulous encore ("Spinning Around"), Kylie's energy level never drops once. Highlights abound: a bright, spangly rendition of her 1989 classic "Hand on Your Heart"; a full-steam-ahead Greatest Hits medley that has the audience practically panting at her feet; a brilliant, twisted-cabaret arrangement of her anthem, "Better the Devil You Know"; an unbelievably erotic take on the Olivia Newton-John ditty, "Physical"; a pumping, sexually-charged "Butterfly"; and the aforementioned "Spinning Around" finale.
Another key to Kylie's success: despite her bare midriffs, low-rise leather jeans, tush-grazing hot pants and stilleto heels, she never comes across as sleazy or even overtly sexual; she really may just be the most gosh-darndest nice pop star on the planet (and it's evident that her dancers and band adore her), as well as the most non-threatening.
The DVD comes with some nice extras: backstage peeks at the show, which highlight the cheeky humor of both Kylie herself, and her tour crew. It makes sense: to put on such a lighthearted, fun show, you need to surround yourself with lighthearted, fun people.
This is, without a doubt, one of the most enjoyable contemporary pop concerts available. Buy it! Kylie delivers.

Brian Setzer - Christmas Extravaganza (2005) Review

Brian Setzer - Christmas Extravaganza (2005)

I saw the Brian Setzer Orchestra two years back when they did a Christmas show here in Wisconsin, and I'm seeing them this holiday season as well, so I figured this would be a great disc to buy. And was I ever right! This disc does a much better job of capturing the fun atmosphere and high energy music of the band than their previous DVD release did. The band sounds just as good as they do on both of their Christmas CD's, and watching the band mambers get into the music while playing it, makes it even more fun for the viewer. The highlight of the disc (and of their live show in general) is when they play the "Nutcracker Suite" for an encore. While often considered a "novelty" swing band, the Nutcracker really shows that all members of the band are world-class musicians first and foremost. It was good to see a few non-Christmas Setzer classics in the playlist, but "Rumble in Brighton" and "Fishnet Stockings" seem odd choices for a Christmas show. Overall, great Christmas fun for all viewers, and I highly recommend it!

RUSSIAN SEXY FITNESS MODELS 1 and 2
DON'T DO IT! WASTE OF MONEY! Nothing erotic here, as they claim. There is absolutely NO nudity in this video and it has nothing to do with fitness. There is NO "bonus material" as they claim on the cover. The entire video is LESS THAN 25 MINUTES LONG. But, considering the footage on this DVD, 25 minutes is way too long. Much of the video is scratchy and blurred, I guess they were going for an old time projector "special effect" look, for whatever reason. NOTE TO PRODUCERS EVERYWHERE: Skip the cheezy "special effects" and just show the ladies! I will never buy another product from these people again, they have no right to be in the video biz.
You'll find more "erotic excitement" paging through the woman's underwear pages of the Sears catalog than you'll find in this video. I don't want to slam the models here, but I doubt they are even Russian, just out of work actresses using "made up" Russian names. This low-budget production couldn't even afford to pay them enough to get naked, how could they afford to find real Russians?
I actually considered trying to sell my copy as "used" before giving it a bad review, but then I decided to do the right thing and warn all of you not to buy this piece of crap. So many productions out there are completely misleading with their video cover pictures and author reviews. It is up to us to inform and warn each other about terrible videos such as this series.
In fact, if you are stranded alone on a deserted island with just a generator, a TV, a DVD player, and either "Russian Sexy Fitness Models" DVD, Vol. 1 or 2, you may try hanging yourself with the power cords after watching this video. But don't do that, don't waste your valuable time watching it, try this instead, scratch a rescue note onto the DVD disc, fling it out into the ocean, then maybe a big fish will eat it, then maybe a fisherman will catch that fish, clean it find your note and rescue ya.
