Great sequel
on December 24, 2010
Posted by: mad10jen

This was very good. I think this is better than the original. It picks up with Michael Douglas being released from jail after serving 8 years behind bars. He has a daughter who is dating Shia LaBeouf ( a wall street stockbroker). Of course Michael Douglas's character left his daughter millions of dollars that he tries to get his hands on but is it for good or bad? Shia and Josh Brolin are the new Douglas and Charlie Sheen characters who are conflicting over power and money of course. I don't want to say to much to give away the movie. Charlie Sheen even has a cameo in this new movie. It has a great plot and pretty good acting as well. This was a sequel that was long overdue. Very good movie.
What's great about it: Plot and acting

Best of the Toy Story trilogy
on October 31, 2010
Posted by: mad10jen

Saw this in the theater with my daughter and it was the best of the three. I feel like I grew up with Andy, Woody, Buzz and the gang. It is fun for kids and adults. It of course is funny just like the previous two. It is a great finish to the series. It even made me choke up at the end as an adult who could understand the feelings and emotions behind it. It is a great story from start to finish, great writing and story line. It is amazing how well this movie series did with such a long period of time between the first and last movie. It was very smart because it reached and made so many more fans. It is a great buy it will be watched over and over again buy yours today. Highly recommended! I didn't comment on the DVD extras it is a Christmas present and have not opened it up yet.

Great for kids and adults

Took my daughter to see this in the theater and was surprised how great it was. I could not wait to pick this up for her as a Christmas present. Kids and adults both can sit down and enjoy this movie. It has a great story and teaches kids not to judge others so it has a great moral behind it as well. It has great characters in it and is a great visual movie. It also has some humor in it as well which is nice for the adults. It is very entertaining from start to finish and a great buy. I know in my house it will get watched over and over again. Have not opened it up yet as it is a Christmas present so as to what if any special features are on it I cannot say.

Classic great movie
on October 7, 2010
Posted by: mad10jen
from Houston, TX
This is such a classic movie. I was a kid when it came out and still love it today. My daughter also likes it. Who can forget Marty Mcfly, Doc, and the Delorean. This movie has a great plot and is funny. Michael J. Fox is awesome in this movie. I love how he goes back in time and meets his parents and just the whole story and how it unfolds. I really enjoyed the extras. I have must of seen this movie a hundred times in the past but I will watch it a hundred more it is that good. So if you grew up with this classic or have never seen it I would highly recommend the purchase of it.

Great Game!
on October 1, 2010
Posted by: mad10jen

This game is great if your a fan of the movie it follows the story line or if your just a fan of fighting games it is lots of fun. It is fun in one player but much better in co-op since some levels you could use some help. Difficulty wise it is not too tough. It saves your progress so if you have to start over you can you do not have to worry about playing a long time and start over it starts on the last thing you did. My 8 year old even plays it hours on end by herself and loves it. You are Aragon and if you play co-op your partner is Gandalf. The co-op play is very fun and makes it worth the buy. It is one of the better co-op games I have played. You play on the same screen not split screen so you have to stay together you cannot have one person fighting or exploring in one place on the other character fighting or exploring in another place this gets frustrating at times because it only lets you go so far before you need your partner to catch up or your stuck like you hit a wall and cant move on. The only downside I wish you could choose the player you wanted in single player mode and it would be nice if you could open new characters. You can either play as Aragon in one quest ( following the movies)or play as young Frodo(Sam's son) in another set of quests. You find money to buy upgraded weapons and many other items. It is a great buy you will not want to stop playing. There alot of side quests which make for even more game play and fun. It is a great game and worth the price.
Pros: great game play and fun lots of levels

Precision gameplay is now a hands-length away. The Wii Nunchuk Controller is used in conjunction with the Wii Remote and connects easily via the expansion port to get you into the swing of things. When combined, the input device duo becomes your sword and shield to combat charging assailants, your defense against a brawny linebacker and so much more. Because the Wii Remote and Nunchuk Controller are relatively dependent on each other, feel free to hold each controller in whichever hand is most comfortable. The ambidextrous design grants matchless accessibility for greater control over gameplay.Formulated with the same motion-sensing technology enabled in the Wii Remote controller, but with an analog stick to assist in character movement, the Wii Nunchuk thrusts you into a fully immersive gaming experience. In several games, you can use the analog stick to move your playable character, while the Wii Remote performs a specific action, such as throwing a pass or aiming a weapon, for the utmost in teamwork. Contoured perfectly to fit in the palm of your hand, the Nunchuk Controller is also equipped with conveniently located buttons for lightning-quick access.

Must have

Its high priced but every retailer asks the same price for it. It is easy to use and I just recently bought LOTR Aragon's quest and to play two player I needed another nunchuk. The game is awesome so the price to have my daughter play with me and help me in co-op mode was worth every penny. I really like the controls and the ease of using them together for using both hands of your character with weapons, shields, staff, torch etc.
What's great about it: ease of use
What's not so great: nothing

A surprise hit in 1976, The Bad News Bears is the story of a grumpy coach and a bunch of untalented kids learning the hard way about sportsmanship and winning the day. Sadly, Paramount has put little to no effort in this first-ever DVD edition of this film. The 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer often looks washed out and soft. While the colors and black levels usually look clean and even, there is often a good amount of dirt or grain in the image which can be distracting to the viewing. The audio is presented in a newly created 5.1 soundtrack and is hardly impressive; directional sounds are sparse with the bulk of the soundtrack filtered through only the center speaker. Channel separation is used in a few instances during the ball game scenes, though otherwise this is a very boring and flat 5.1 remix. Also included on this disc are English subtitles. For those looking for extra features, you'd better be looking elsewhere. Not one single solitary supplement is included on this DVD edition of The Bad News Bears. For a film that has garnered a loyal fan base, this DVD is one big strike out.

Classic movie
on July 24, 2010
Posted by: mad10jen
from Houston, TX
This is a classic movie. It is hilarious from start to finish. Walter Matthau was cast as the coach which he played very well. He is very funny and believable as Mr. Buttermaker. A young Tatum O"Neal joins this terrible baseball team to be their star pitcher he does a good acting job as well and who can forget Kelly Leak the stud trouble making outfielder who saves the team. He makes them a contender for the championship game against the much hated Yankees. It has a great cast of kids and is a great story for rooting for the underdog. I watch this movie many times a year as you will it is a classic.

Great CD
on July 24, 2010
Posted by: mad10jen
from Houston, TX
In my opinion this is one of the King of Pops better CD's. Bad, The way you make me feel, Man in the mirror(one of his best songs ever), Dirty diana, Smooth criminal, and I just can't stop loving you are great songs. Rarely do you ever get a album with a ton of hits unless you buy a greatest hits album but, on this album you get 6 that are really good. Michael Jackson was one the most famous entertainers of our lifetimes and there will never be another one like him. He can sing like no other. You can't beat this price anywhere for a new CD i checked. This is a great album with a great price. Highly recommended.

Great sequel

Toy Story 2 is a great sequel to the original. The story is a good one for kids and adults. I really like the new characters they added. Just as the original Toy Story 2 has a great story and is funny. All 3 movies really take you back when life was simplier. It was what toys will I play with today and what situation will they find themselves in. It is a great movie to watch with or without your kids. The extras leave a little to be desired for those that like the special features but I still highly recommend adding this movie to your collection whether on DVD or Blu-ray.
What's great about it: Characters and story
What's not so great: Not much extras

One of Disney/Pixar best movies
on July 7, 2010
Posted by: mad10jen
from Houston, TX
Toy story is a great movie for kids and adults. It has a great story line that kids and adults can enjoy. It has very likeable characters and is funny even for adults. It is one of the best movies Disney/Pixar has ever made. It gets watched over and over agian at my household so I have definately got my monies worth. As an adult it takes you back to the time when you wee little played with toys and makes you think of your favorite toys and makes you wonder what if your toys came "alive" when you were not in the room. What would they do, what would they say. This is such a fantastic movie. This entire Toy Story series is a must own on DVD or Blue-ray they are all great.
What's great about it: The story and characters
