Mario Kart is the reason I buy Nintendo. And I really love that you can now play online with a console. I always play on the DS. But now I can play on the big screen. :) New cars and now bikes. Great all around. Buy it and race ya online. lol
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: The wheel could have better control

You get what you pay for. And so far i'm enjoying it. It was easy and quick to put together. The tilting is my favorite part. Having wheels to move around is a must. If you don't have much to spend on a chair but don't want to look cheap. This chair is perfect. I'm sitting in it right now as I type this. lol.
What's great about it: Cheap, Tilts, rolls & easy to put together

A great mixer. Heavy so you know it can handle tough jobs. It's quiet and does the job everytime. I've been using it almost every other day just to play around with it. If you love to cook, cut your prepare time in half. Get this mixer.
I grewup watching this movie. I loved it then and I still love it now. My kids now watch it and they love it too. It's something about robots that come alive. lol. Great movie for your collection.
What's great about it: Funny, cute & has robots, lol.
After the back-to-back smashes of Jaws and Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Steven Spielberg tried his hand at comedy with this loud, chaotic wartime comedy. The end result has long been dismissed as the blackest mark on the director's record. This DVD edition from Universal will allow people to judge for themselves. The film, a restored director's cut clocking in at two hours and 26 minutes, looks great, presented in a widescreen format with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. Spielberg expertly captured the tone and look of 1940s California, and this DVD lets viewers luxuriate in it; however, they can't relax for long, as the sound has been remixed to a ground-shaking Dolby Digital 5.1. Every crashing plane, roaring anti-aircraft gun, and collapsing house sounds as if it's happening next door. Where the disc really takes off is with the extras. First up is an encyclopedic documentary that runs 100 minutes and gives every detail of the film's making. There are loads of anecdotes (including John Wayne's and Charlton Heston's refusal to act in the film, seeing it as unpatriotic), Spielberg's own home movies, and some reflections on the end result by the film's creators, many of whom (such as Robert Zemeckis ) went on to great success. Also included is a collection of promotional artwork and selected reviews from critics (few of which are favorable). Additionally, there are deleted scenes, trailers, production photographs, and production notes. One feature that deserves mentioning, only for how odd it is, is titled "Comic Relief" -- a collection of production stills with (supposedly) humorous voice balloons drawn over them. It's certainly one feature they could have left out. Overall, fans of 1941 and Spielberg completists will want to have this in their libraries.

Classic Disney animation meets contemporary urban chaos when a frightened princess is banished from her magical animated homeland to modern-day New York City in a romantic comedy penned by Bill Kelly (Blast from the Past), directed by Kevin Lima (Tarzan), and featuring music by composer Alan Menken and lyricist Stephen Schwartz. Princess Giselle (Amy Adams) lives in the blissful cartoon world of Andalasia, where magical beings frolic freely and musical interludes punctuate every interaction. Though Princess Giselle is currently engaged to be married to the handsome Prince Edward (James Marsden), her fate takes a turn for the worse when the villainous Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) banishes her to the unforgiving metropolis of New York City. As the cruelty of the big city soon begins to wear down the fairy-tale exterior of the once-carefree princess, the frightened Giselle soon finds herself falling for a friendly but flawed divorce lawyer (Patrick Dempsey) whose kind compassion helps her to survive in this strange and dangerous new world.

I was surprised that I would like it. My kids loved it because of the magic and of course the dragon. Disney will win your heart again with this movie. Man that sounded like it was right off the box. lol. Great movie for your collection.
Disney's amalgamation of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and The Wind in the Willows, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.33:1. English, Spanish, and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. There are no subtitles, but the English soundtrack is closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include a DVD storybook, a trivia game, a cartoon, and a singalong song. This is a very enjoyable family title from Disney/Buena Vista.
