Miami Vice: Season Two - The Best Season for this Eighties Series by AliventiAsylum Pros: almost all the episodes are strong this season, music left in, good cinematography
Cons: Philip Michael Thomas, print not remastered, no extras, storyline nit-picks The first season of Miami Vice took many people by surprise. This wasn’t a typical cop show set in a grungy, depressing station house with detectives who seemed more alike than different. Miami Vice was a ...

"Potty Power" is a Nice Potty Training Aid, and Gets Little Ones Excited by Javelina Pros: Quick, great layout, good balance of narrative/singing, fun, catchy
Cons: Skit at end can be annoying, probably not for younger kids (like 2 or under) Potty training has been a long road, and I'm always looking for tools that might help us out in any way to potty-train my toddler. "Potty Power" was highly recommended to me by some other moms, so when I ended up with a good coupon to Toys R Us, I ...

Unsolved Mysteries: Ghosts - Ghost Stories to Scare Ya by AliventiAsylum Pros: segments well produced, good stories for the most part, tribute to Robert Stack
Cons: not enough investigation Before the explosion of television networks on cable where it seems you can find just about any content you can imagine, there only was the networks. Before reality television shows, there wasn’t much of a drive for content that had some ...

The Adventures of Batman & Robin: The Riddler — Riddle Me a Couple of Episodes by elvisdo Pros: Introduction of the Riddler; great voice work and animation
Cons: Only two episodes; can get everything on DVD now Before DVD collections became the norm, a lot of television episodes were released on VHS tapes (yes, remember those days?).

I See You. by fashfoto Pros: Wow! What a great ride!
Cons: Saw it in 2D. 3D is a must! (I'm going back.) I don't often go out to movies. It's every couple of years to see the latest James bond film. (I do, nonetheless, subscribe to Netflix.)However, Avatar got my attention. Perhaps it was that I had seen James Cameron, the writer/director being ...

Free is about the right price by seacow Pros: …
Cons: … It’s funny how the 80s are full of movies that are basically content to stay there and we, as an audience, are content to leave them there. Killer Klowns From Outer Space is a movie that I think most people would be happy to leave in the ...

You can never go home by seacow Pros: …

How Many Rape Scenes Can You Squeeze Into One Film? by coldsteel7 Pros: Interesting characters, "true" but anonymous story, good dialogue.
Cons: A couple of annoying characters, the parts don't come together evenly. Disturbing imagery can be used in film to promote thought and discussion. Woman in Berlin is based on an autobiography written by an author who wanted to remain anonymous after the public outrage following its publication. The events ...

Avatar IMAX 3D: Profoundly in love with Pandora! by cr01 Pros: Loved the revolutionary anti imperalist plot along with the fantastic images.
Cons: None for me. I'm not one that particularly follows the movies, so when my beloved asked whether I fancied seeing Avatar in 3-D at the local IMAX cinema in Bradford, it was more the promise of a pre-theatre Indian curry that sold the deal. Perhaps if I had read some ...

"Family Guy's" Pointless Cashgrab: "Stewie Kills Lois"/"Lois Kills Stewie" Is A Redundant DVD! by wlswarts Pros: Two wonderful episodes of "Family Guy," DVD bonus features
Cons: Both are available as part of a more complete boxed set, Nothing unique I object to pointless things; it's one of the reasons I was so happy when DVD became the dominant medium and television shows started doing complete seasons and whole series' of the show, as opposed to single episodes of a series. So when DVDs go the ...

As if teenage pregnancy could be any more glamorous. by erykkafox Pros: Ellen Page and J.K. Simmons are always good, some cute and clever moments.
Cons: Michael Cera is worthless, the plot is ill-founded, everything else is pretty terrible. Meet Juno MacGuff (Ellen Page): she's a "misfit" at her local suburban high school because of her eccentric demeanor and affinity for punk rock, lives with her father (J.K. Simmons) and stepmother (Allison Janney) after her mother fled the family, and ...

And in the end, we all learn that the enemy is the black guy. by erykkafox Pros: Powerful performances by Wood, Hunter, Reed.
Cons: Racial stereotypes, "good girl gone bad" loses novelty and guilt-inducing eroticism after a while. What were you like when you were thirteen years old? If you were anything like Tracy Freeland (Evan Rachel Wood) was, you went from being a gifted, A-plus garnering seventh grader who hung out with Asian kids to an acid-dropping, cigarette-smoking, ...

This movie -prawns- the hell out of modern science fiction films. by erykkafox Pros: Acting, direction, screenplay, visuals, soundtrack, everything else about movie.
Cons: Some disturbing imagery, poor allegory for apartheid. At the age of six, I entertained myself for hours by browsing through my father's textbooks on trauma and wound care; I was absolutely mesmerized by the images of dismembered arms caught in farm machinery. Now, as a college student flirting with the idea ...
