How does Spider-Man 3 follow on the heels of its predecessor, which was widely considered the best superhero movie ever? For starters, you pick up the loose threads from that movie, then add some key elements of the Spidey comic-book mythos (including fan-favorite villain Venom), the black costume, and the characters of Gwen Stacy and her police-captain father. In the beginning, things have never looked better for Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire): He's doing well in school; his alter ego, Spider-Man, is loved and respected around New York City. And his girlfriend, Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst), has just taken a starring role in a Broadway musical. But nothing good can last for Spidey. Mary Jane's career quickly goes downhill; she's bothered by Peter's attractive new classmate, Gwen Stacy (Bryce Dallas Howard); and the new Daily Bugle photographer, Eddie Brock (Topher Grace), is trying to steal his thunder. Enter a new villain, the Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), who can transform his body into various forms and shapes of sand and who may be connected to Peter's past in an unexpected way. There's also the son of an old villain, Harry Osborne (James Franco), who unmasked Spidey in the previous movie and still has revenge on his mind. And a new black costume seems to boost Spidey's powers, but transforms mild-mannered Peter into a mean and obnoxious boor (Maguire has some fun here).

If that sounds like a lot to pack into one 140-minute movie, it is. While director Sam Raimi keeps things flowing, assisted on the screenplay by his brother Ivan and Alvin Sargent, there's a little too much going on, and it's inevitable that one of the villains (there are three or four, depending on how you count) gets significantly short-changed. Still, the cast is excellent, the effects are fantastic, and the action is fast and furious. Even if Spider-Man 3 isn't the match of Spider-Man 2, it's a worthy addition to the megamillion-dollar franchise. --David Horiuchi

Great film, but............2007-09-13

Spider-Man 3 was a great comic book film no matter what you think. Spider-Man 2 is still the reigning king of comic book to film adaptations but you've gotta give cred to Raimi and crew for this third installment. The introduction of Venom was long awaited but one of the flaws with this movie was the fact that Sandman really didn't fit into the movie. Sandman, in my opinion, was there for the sympathetic factor and just to add another villain because Venom didn't come around until the end of the movie(total drag!). Venom should've been around a lot longer in the film. The emotion and human-touch was there but a few scenes were alittle questionable, such as the Peter Parker jazz dance among other things. The action was top notch and the effects were as great as ever. Danny Elfman's score, or I think Chris Young did this film, was also a great listen.Overall, It was satisfying. I'm a huge Spider-Man fan and the movies do more than justify the comics, they honor them. It's great to see great comic book heroes made into movies and you've gotta thank Spidey

I became a chain smoker after this "MOVIE".......2007-09-09

ok so get this ,first off ima comic book fan so heading to the theatre i already have high hopes but low expectations 15 minutes into this atrocity i was pissed and as the movie progressed i slowly but surely found myself becoming more and more angry, i know people liked this one but try as i might i just dont get why, it was horribly put together too much singing too much dancing too much crying (wow this has quickly become a rant) every time i run into someone who says they liked it i cant get my brain to accept that i honestly think their messin w/ me and i follow them pointing out why i hated that tripe shortly after i have to have a smoke

The sad facts.......2007-09-07

The sad facts: 1 too many villains, 2 Tobey Maguire's dark side was comical, 4 what happened to the magic from the second film? 5 The ending sucked so hard the devil wept, 6 came real close to Batman 4, the bad out way the good.

A SUPERB CONCLUSION TO A WONDERFUL SERIES.......2007-09-06

I don't know what film others saw, but the one I saw four times is at least as good as the previous two in the series, and a very satisfying wrap up to the entire trilogy story line. No Action? Hunh? It has just as much edge-of-your-seat action as you could hope for. Too many villians? That's just plain stupid (especially considering how one of the "villians" is redeemed.) In fact, as best as I can determine, folks who voice disatisfaction in this film do so because it is truly a story of redemption and forgiveness, and apparently people would have preferred murder and mayhem (there's plenty of that out there, so if that's what you want, then I agree that Spidey 3 isn't for thee.) And with regard to the person who said that this film was all about "revenge" getting "shoved in our faces" -- well, actually it's about the "danger of revenge" and turns the table on that attitude in a great conclusion that brings tears to your eyes (or ought to, anyway.) I've never bothered to write a review before, but it really has gotten under my skin how many critical pans this film has received that are just plain senseless and, frankly, ignorant. Let this set the record straight. Watch all three together and you've got one great story set: 1, 2 AND 3 -- without exception.

Far better than Spider-Man 2.......2007-09-06

I hated Spider-Man 2 for the simple reason that it had way, way too much of Peter Parker whining about how screwed up his life was. It didn't show enough of how his life was being screwed up.

First rule of movie making - Show, don't tell. It's a visual medium for crying out loud. Plus numerous continuity errors (Pete doesn't have enough money to go see MJ perform so she gives him tickets. He gets kicked out but later goes to see her anyway... so how did he get the money for those tickets?) drag down Spider-Man 2.

Spider-Man 3 fixes all the problems I had with Spider-Man 2.

As with Star Wars, the George Lucas-produced Indiana Jones trilogy was not just a plaything for kids but an act of nostalgic affection toward a lost phenomenon: the cliffhanging movie serials of the past. Episodic in structure and with fate hanging in the balance about every 10 minutes, the Jones features tapped into Lucas's extremely profitable Star Wars formula of modernizing the look and feel of an old, but popular, story model. Steven Spielberg directed all three films, which are set in the late 1930s and early '40s: the comic book-like Raiders of the Lost Ark, the spooky, Gunga Din-inspired Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the cautious but entertaining Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Fans and critics disagree over the order of preference, some even finding the middle movie nearly repugnant in its violence. (Pro-Temple of Doom people, on the other hand, believe that film to be the most disarmingly creative and emotionally effective of the trio.) One thing's for sure: Harrison Ford's swaggering, two-fisted, self-effacing performance worked like a charm, and the art of cracking bullwhips was probably never quite the iconic activity it soon became after Raiders. Supporting players and costars were very much a part of the series, too--Karen Allen, Sean Connery (as Indie's dad), Kate Capshaw, Ke Huy Quan, Amrish Puri, Denholm Elliot, River Phoenix, and John Rhys-Davies among them. Years have passed since the last film (another is supposedly in the works), but emerging film buffs can have the same fun their predecessors did picking out numerous references to Hollywood classics and B-movies of the past. --Tom Keogh

What could be better than a set of all three Indiana Jones movies? Each is exciting in its own way. Some people like the first movies the best; others like the second with the trip to China and the famous dinner scene; others like the third movie where Sean Connery plays the father of Indiana Jones.

I understand that a fourth Indiana Jones movies is in the works, and look forward to seeing it.

The unlikeliest cult hit of 2004 was What the (Bleep) Do We Know?, a lecture on mysticism and science mixed into a sort-of narrative. Marlee Matlin stars in the dramatic thread, about a sourpuss photographer who begins to question her perceptions. Interviews with quantum physics experts and New Age authors are cut into this story, offering a vaguely convincing (and certainly mind-provoking) theory about... well, actually, it sounds a lot like the Power of Positive Thinking, when you get down to it. Talking heads (not identified until film's end) include JZ Knight, who appears in the movie channeling Ramtha, the ancient sage she claims communicates through her (other speakers are also associated with Knight's organization). What she says actually makes pretty good common sense--Ramtha's wiggier notions are not included--and would be easy to accept were it not being credited to a 35,000-year-old mystic from Atlantis. --Robert Horton

Description

Proving once and for all that life can be an amazing journey—and a real trip—this all-new Quantum Edition release of What The Bleep!? Down the Rabbit Hole utilizes cutting-edge DVD technology to create a unique version of the film with every viewing! The possibilities are endless...and so is the fun! Academy Award® winner Marlee Matlin is Amanda, a photographer suddenly transported into a metaphysical world of quantum mechanics, odd science and mind-bending phenomena. Guided by the world's top physicists, engineers, biologists and mystics, she tumbles down the rabbit hole and gets a first-hand look at the fascinating links between science and spirituality in our everyday lives.

Customer Reviews:

Great and lame.......2007-09-11

This documentary is enlightening at one level and disturbing at another. To be specific, I loved the light they shed on the difference between Newtonian physics and quantum mechanics. Furthermore, the idea that our bodies emit energy when we simply think and that we can influence our health among other things was fascinating. I take it as a challenge and a personal quest that started when I read the book The Biology of Belief. This quest is driven by the fact that my child has autism and that I want to foster a healthy subconscious in him to give him the power to choose his destiny someday. It also gives me perspective for some of the energy based treatments I am seeking such as CranioSacral therapy and why they improve behavior.

The part of the movie I hated was the spiritual propaganda in support of the Ramtha school. Nights/Ramtha contradicted her/himself. On the one hand by claiming that we are all divine, and on the other by stating that little carbon units could not sin against Almighty God. I don't think that is necessary or desirable that I stop believing in the creator of the universe to benefit from learning about energy and quantum mechanics. If anything, the possibility that our minds are so powerful just makes me feel more amazed at God's creation. It makes me feel that his creation is so perfect beyond our understanding.

The movie put down the idea of believing in a creator. It was especially offensive against the Christian God mocking the truth that your sins can be forgiven. And can anyone tell me if having the [...] girl flirt with the priest behind the scene where the obese man engages in eating is a subliminal message?

I would recommend this film to people that have a strong spiritual foundation; however if you are in an exploratory phase, please consider that the path of this movie is not the path of truth.

In the movie they talked about Emoto's water experiments focusing on how thought and intention can influence water crystals. This is a profound idea that gave me a new appreciation for Holy water and for the Eucharistic bread and wine.

I'll tell you what the bleep we know........2007-09-09

We know better than to fall for thinly veiled astrology, that's what the bleep we know. When I hear that a film is about quantum mechanics, then find out later that it stars Ramtha the magic faith healer (who by the way failed to heal her late husband's HIV infection), I get very disappointed. It gets one star only because no stars is not an option.

what the bleep down the rabbit hole.......2007-09-03

The blurb that I read before buying this indicated that it was about Quantum physics and mechanics, but it ended up being about personal interpretations of spirituality. I was very disappointed in this DVD.

Fantastic and interesting.......2007-09-03

This is a magic film about life. I have already seen it twice, and shown it to friends. You can't go on living "the old way" after this.

Spiritual Thirst Somewhat Satiated.......2007-09-01

When I first saw "What the Bleep Do We Know!?," the predecessor to this much longer three-disc version, in December of 2004, I hadn't been exposed to much Spiritual Cinema. Most of my spiritual journey had been through reading books and life experiences. They were also a great way to learn, but it took much longer!! "What the Bleep Do We Know!?" paved the way for me to enjoy other films in the Spiritual Cinema Genre like "Indigo" (2005),"The Secret" (Original Edition 2006), etc. However, I was still craving more of both scientific (specifically quantum mechanics) and spiritual (specifically formerly esoteric) information. So, I was elated when "What the Bleep!?-Down the Rabbit Hole" came out. It has nearly six hours of additional interviews and a cool "cutting-edge quantum viewing mode" where you can actually influence what you see next without touching the remote:) It really is all in your mind!!! These are a couple of the features that set it apart from the first movie. It's been something substantial, ironically in an immaterial way, to keep my spritual thirst somewhat satiated for quite a bit(e)now...lol...

Consistently solid with some major developments, the fifth season of Smallville kicks the characters off to college, but not before finishing the cataclysmic disaster that ended the fourth season. With Chloe transported to the Arctic Circle and Kryptonian supervillains in town, Clark (Tom Welling) is in the Fortress of Solitude meeting Jor-El (voiced by Terence Stamp). He gives up his powers, but to get them back will cost him the life of someone he loves.

The even bigger development is that Clark and Lana (Kristin Kreuk) finally give up their dalliances with others and become an official couple. That means the other girls in Clark's life become fifth and sixth wheels, so Chloe (Allison Mack) reveals the secret she's been keeping from Clark and becomes a best pal. Super-gorgeous Lois's (Erica Durance, now part of the opening credits) banter with Clark loses its bite without any sexual tension so instead she meets Arthur "AC" Curry, a fantastic swimmer who has an eye for Lois and an accusing one toward Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) and LutherCorp. He's not the only one; Clark's Central Kansas A&M professor, Milton Fine (James Marsters) hires Clark to help him on his project, an expose of LutherCorp. Lex is the pivotal character of the season. His relationship with his best friend, Clark, now history, Lex has a Christmas Carol-type dream in which he sees himself in a law-abiding--and happy--life. (That episode, "Lexmas," also has some amusing interplay involving Clark and Chloe.) Undeterred, he decides on a life of power and dives into a state senate race against Jonathan Kent with gusto, though a fanatical Lex supporter turns the race into a literal one for life and death. Lionel Luthor (John Glover) also makes a strong comeback in this season, pulling unseen levers and making everyone wonder exactly what he knows.

There's some fun. "Thirst" is a tribute to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and another DC Comics character, Cyborg (Teen Titans), appears. Carrie Fisher plays Chloe's editor at The Daily Planet, and "Exposed" reunites Schneider with former Dukes of Hazzard costar Tom Wopat, and the two go peeling out in a vehicle. But things come to a head in the series 100th episode, when Jor-El's prediction comes to pass and splintered relationships end up leading in unexpected directions. Then in the season finale's cliffhanger, Clark has to face three of his enemies. DVD features include commentary on two episodes and a half-hour examination of the 100th episode, from writing through production. --David Horiuchi

Description

An astonishing season of destiny! Clark Kent now carries a full load of classes at Central Kansas U., but that's not all he carries. He carries the full weight of his - perhaps the world's - destiny. "We call this season Superman in Training," series co-creator Alfred Gough says. "Clark is going to accept his destiny." During this exciting pivotal season: The Fortress of Solitude rises. A spaceship mystery unfolds. A dark tragedy - one even Clark's powers can't prevent - strikes. These and more key elements of Superman lore fall into place.

A landmark episode and a tragic death.......2007-09-10

Season five of the WB's (now the CW) Superman as a teenager drama, Smallville produced a landmark episode, introduced a few new superheroes that show up in Superman's future and also saw the death of one of the show's most-loved characters.

Early in the fifth season, the show reached its 100th episode, quite an accomplishment in and of itself, and that episode, "Reckoning," was when the powers that be decided that a major character was going to die, and while most people could read the writing on the wall as to who that character would be, the show did tease a little bit, leading viewers to think it may be somebody other than Clark's father, Jonathan, but in the end, the newly-elected Senator Kent was stricken moments after fighting with Lionel Luthor, surrounded by his wife and son.

Smallville explores the youth of future Superman Clark Kent (Tom Welling) as he learns to deal with his powers and how to use them to help others. This season was the first season that the main character and his friends were no longer in high school, so the show shifted a little bit, with a lot of action taking place in nearby Metropolis.

As Clark struggles with his secret, another person becomes a keeper of that secret. Clark's friend Chloe (Allison Mack) learned of the secret late in season four, but she gets closer to Clark in the fifth season as he realizes she knows and finds himself becoming more and more comfortable around her. Clark's relationship with the love of his teenage life, Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk) is another story, as he struggles keeping his secret from her. He finally tells her and in the 100th episode, Lana is killed while being chased by Lex (Michael Rosenbaum), forcing Clark to request a favor of his biological father Jor-El. Clark gets to live the day over, doesn't tell Lana his secret and saves her, eventually leading to the death of Jonathan Kent (John Schneider).

Lana turns to Lex for comfort and finds much more than that, as the two begin a relationship that is certainly doomed from the start, but one that infuriates Clark as he truly believes the horrible things that Lex is capable of and doesn't want Lana to be part of them. Lana's romance with Lex also stems from a mutual interest in a space ship that crashed in the finale of season four and which Lex secures in the start of this season.

At the start of the season, Clark and Chloe both end up in the "Fortress of Solitude," where Clark accidently releases Krypontians from the Phantom Zone. One Kryptonian who comes to play a big part in the season is Milton Fine (guest star James Marsters), who also will be known as Brainiac. He is a professor at Central Kansas A and M, where Clark is a student, but his Kryptonian heritage is discovered as he tries to convince Clark that Jor-El was evil. The two do battle, with Clark coming out on top in the first round, but Fine seemingly getting revenge in the finale.

Chloe takes her journalism to Metropolis University, where she rooms with Lana. Chloe also gets a job at the Daily Planet, where she uses all the resources available to her to help Clark fight against the evil of the world. She also spends a good deal of time with her cousin, Lois Lane (Erica Durance), who showed up in the previous season as a regular hinderance in Clark's life. Lois also gets the chance to serve as campaign manager for Jonathan's senate run against Lex and eventually as Martha Kent's (Annette O'Toole) chief of staff when she takes her husband's seat.

Lionel Luthor (John Glover) also discovers Clark's secrets and uses them to his advantage with the Kents, eventually leading to the heart attack that kills Jonathan. He also finances Jonathan's senate run against his son, knowing that the power that Lex is seeking will only make him hungry for more and he believes that is not good for anybody. Lionel also seems very interested in Martha Kent as the season winds down.

The landmark episode was certainly the 100th, which featured the death of Jonathan and the break-up of Clark and Lana. In addition, the season also features the introduction of Aquaman and Cyborg, friends who will come back to help Clark in the future. The highlight of the season for me, anyway, was the episode that featured John Schneider's former Dukes of Hazzard co-star Tom Wopat at Senator Jack Jennings. The two really play up the whole Hazzard connection, right down to a 1969 Dodge Charger with a stuck passenger side door. I really got a kick out of that episode and was glad the two got to work together before Schneider's character died.

This set also featured two commentary tracks, deleted scenes and a great behind-the-scenes look at the making of the landmark 100th episode, all solid extras on another solid set.

All told, the fifth season of Smallville's only weakness may indeed be Kryptonite.

Still Great.......2007-08-31

A lot of stuff happens this season that makes this worth buying; Aquaman, silver Kryptonite, Braniac and the death of a family member are just a few things that happen this season. Season five is definitely one of the most exciting seasons and one of the most interesting since a lot of it takes place in Metropolis. The series just gets better and better with each season

One of the series' better seasons!.......2007-08-30

I've always thought that television shows should be fun. I don't care what sense of morality and thought-provoking situations you want to put in; the show has an obligation to entertain. Smallville's Season 5 does not fail.

The season begins with the aftermath of the second meteor shower and a choice for Clark that has dire consequences he cannot see or [mostly] fix. It's a new world for Kent and Co. as they move from high school into the world of adults; their adulthood is something the show and its themes will not let you forget! It's complex, it's exciting, and it's moving. Every moment of this season is a blast.

And this is because it's rare to see a show that can put solemnity and camp into the same season and make it work. We have death, we have heartache, and we have some episodes that are so playful and silly they just make you laugh. But remember--even this more campy episodes concerning vampire sororities and holiday specials serve their purpose in furthering the plot. A useful way to have fun.

Even the characters seem more comfortable in their respective niches even as they go under remarkable changes.

Great writing and a great way to move our characters onto their destinies! The first season of this show to which I have given 5 stars.

Oh, and check out the documentary on Superman. Wonderful.

Filmmaker Robert Zemeckis topped his breakaway hit Romancing the Stone with Back to the Future, a joyous comedy with a dazzling hook: what would it be like to meet your parents in their youth? Billed as a special-effects comedy, the imaginative film (the top box-office smash of 1985) has staying power because of the heart behind Zemeckis and Bob Gale's script. High schooler Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox, during the height of his TV success) is catapulted back to the '50s where he sees his parents in their teens, and accidentally changes the history of how Mom and Dad met. Filled with the humorous ideology of the '50s, filtered through the knowledge of the '80s (actor Ronald Reagan is president, ha!), the film comes off as a Twilight Zone episode written by Preston Sturges. Filled with memorable effects and two wonderfully off-key, perfectly cast performances: Christopher Lloyd as the crazy scientist who builds the time machine (a DeLorean luxury car) and Crispin Glover as Marty's geeky dad. --Doug Thomas

Critics and audiences didn't seem too happy with Back to the Future, Part II, the inventive, perhaps too clever sequel. Director Zemeckis and cast bent over backwards to add layers of time-travel complication, and while it surely exercises the brain it isn't necessarily funny in the same way that its predecessor was. It's well worth a visit, though, just to appreciate the imagination that went into it, particularly in a finale that has Marty watching his own actions from the first film. --Tom Keogh

Shot back-to-back with the second chapter in the trilogy, Back to the Future, Part III is less hectic than that film and has the same sweet spirit of the first, albeit in a whole new setting. This time, Marty ends up in the Old West of 1885, trying to prevent the death of mad scientist Christopher Lloyd at the hands of gunman Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen (Thomas F. Wilson, who had a recurring role as the bully Biff). Director Zemeckis successfully blends exciting special effects with the traditions of a Western and comes up with something original and fun. --Tom Keogh

A very nice Package of Back to the Future Trilogy.......2007-09-10

I am very satisfied with my purchase of this trilogy. It has hours and hours of behind the scenes and bloopers and How they made the movies, which is very interesting. The movies come nicely packaged in a very nice dvd holder that opens like a book. Someday I expect that these movies will be known as Classics. Amazon had the cheapest price of the Trilogy of any store or online store I shopped at. An all around great value for sure.

Great Movie, but more bad language than I remembered!.......2007-09-10

I bought this three movie package because my girls (6 and 8) were singing the Jonas Bros. song Year 3000, which mentions this movie. I remember loving this movie when I was a teen! However, I did NOT remember how many cuss words where used in this movie, so beware if you are purchasing this for your children to enjoy today!

A Must Have For All Fans.......2007-09-04

After years of waiting, Back to the Future is finally released to DVD. The three movies that nearly single-handedly made Michael J. Fox into a star are here for purchase.

These three DVD contain an amazement of extras, including commentary on all three features, deleted scenes for the movies, the interviews, featurettes, documetaries, an assortment of others. A definite must have for film fans of all ages.

One of the most universally loved movies to ever grace the cinema. The movies look flawless. The prints are amazing, everything looks amazing. It's just an amazing experience. Presented in 1:85:1 anamorphic widescreen, it's a beauty to the eyes, and the 5.1 soundtrack is a beauty ot the ears as well.

This is a definite must have. Good family fun for everyone, and if you've seen the movies a hundred times over, check out the discs for the boatload of extras. You won't be disappointed.

very funny.......2007-09-03

Highly creative and entertaining stories. I wish they had gone a little easier on the sexual innuendo, especially making "mom" out to be such a tramp as a teen. The language is also really rough, especially in part two.

Good trilogy.......2007-09-03

Back to the future, a super classic, and this remasterized version make this even better, if you're looking for something that send you back to the past once again, you got to see Back to the future to remember the beginning of the science fiction movies. Oh my loved 80's, Bye

Not Worth the Price.......2007-09-14

I remember this show from my younger years, and loved it. However, I have a problem with the way the DVD Release is being handled. 12 discs for 7 episodes? Do we really care for or need an extensive documentary for each episode.? And for $75? At this rate, it will cost over two hundred dollars to own the show. No thanks.

Very good series.......2007-08-31

I enjoyed this series when it was on TV and I'm eagerly looking forward to the DVD set coming out.

The Young Indiana Jones series is about the coming-of-age of the Indiana Jones character from the Indiana Jones movies.

The TV series is both fun and educational. I definitely recommend it.

A Fantastic Series.......2007-08-30

This was a great series, and I've long hoped for its dvd release. Though overpriced at the moment, at least it's available, so I'll keep an eye out for the eventual (inevitable) complete series box set. In the meantime, there's always the local rental place.

Young Indie was my favorite show when it originally aired, and I've retained very fond memories of it ever since. It's nice to see that, though the amount of documentaries included here borders on the absurd, it is getting a full treatment and is not just some rush-job release-it-and-forget-it package that often happens with long-discontinued series.

Young Indiana Jones episodes are filled with all the action, humor, and intelligence you could hope for, and, best of all, (cheezy and clichéd as this is to say) it really is fun for all ages.

Young Indy Returns .......2007-08-29

The Young Indiana Jones adventures come to DVD. Agreed I wish it was cheaper but then consider you are dealing with Paramount that charges over $100 per season for any of the Star Trek series. Considering that each episode is an hour and a half movie in itself and this does not seem quite so unreasonable. Furthermore it includes alot of extras whether you want them or not. I grant you I would like to see a 7 disk edition of just the episodes for a substancial savings. Personally I'm just thrilled to finally see them come to DVD. I am sure if you're patient you can probably get a package deal once all the volumes are released. The first 12-disc set includes seven feature-length episodes as well as 38 in-depth companion documentaries, an historical overview, an interactive game and an interactive timeline. The series was shot in 35 countries and showed key figures in the coming of age of the modern world. The interviews include celebrities like Gen. Colin Powell, Henry Kissinger, Gloria Steinem, Martin Scorsese, Barbara Boxer, James Earl Jones, Hal David, and Deepak Chopra.

This volume includes the episodes:

My First Adventure - Indy and T.E. Lawrence solve a murder mystery in Egypt.

Passion For Life - Indy goes on safari in Kenya with Teddy Roosevelt.

The Perils of Cupid - Indy falls in love with the daughter of Duke Franz Ferdinand in Vienna, Austria.

Travels with Father - Indy joins up with Leo Tolstoy after an argument with his father while visiting Russia.

Journey of Radiance - Indy visits the Holy City Benares in the Far East and meets Jiddu Krishnamurti.

Spring Break Adventure - Indy meets Thomas Edison and tries to avoid German spies.

Love's Sweet Song - Indy ends up in Ireland right before the Easter Rebellion mixed up with the resistance and he meets Winston Churchill.

The second volume is to be released December 2007 and the third volume in the Spring of 2008. If you shop around I think you will find Amazon has the best Pre-order price so far. The suggested retail being advertised several places is over $100. So I'm ordering mine here and now. This set is great family entertainment. It may not always have as much excitement and comedy as the Jone's movies, but it makes up for it in other ways including good drama, history, and locations. I highly recomend this set.

OUCH!.......2007-08-29

I remember this show very fondly, and would give the show 5 stars based on the content. But OUCH on the price, even at the discounted Amazon price! $75 for 12 episodes -- $6 per episode! SUPER OUCH! I wish the producers would not be so greedy.... I'll have to wait till its about $30, like other shows, or wait till the downloads are available. To the producers: you sell more, and make more, when the price is more reasonable.......

Book 1: Water, Vol. 1
Mysterious, visually beautiful at times, and surprisingly funny, Avatar: Book 1, Volume 1 is the exciting story of Aang, a 12-year-old reincarnation of the ancient Avatar, whose purpose (in an imagined world that seems both ancient and futuristic) is to restore peace and order between warring armies of the four elements: fire, earth, water, and air. At one time or another, over thousands of years, the Avatar has been embodied in masters of each of the elements. Aang (who is freed from a century-long sleep inside an iceberg) happens to be an "airbender," capable of using air and wind as powerful forces for moving objects and defeating hostile armies of firebenders. The feature-length Avatar follows Aang and a couple of friends as he becomes reacquainted with the world he knew before his 100-year hibernation--a world now lost to history. The story also concerns internal dramas within the unforgiving world of firebenders, who are intent on destruction and conquest. This engaging story, very pleasant to look at in its rich tones of blue and orange, is for all ages. --Tom Keogh

Book 1: Water, Vol. 2
Avatar The Last Airbender, Book 1: Water, Volume 2 continues the adventurous if half-comic journey of 12-year-old Airbender Aang, reincarnation of an ancient avatar, and his friends Katara and Sokka as they seek a teacher to help Aang fulfill his peacemaking destiny in a war-torn world. The four episodes on this disc, a follow-up to the elegant, magical series introduction, find the trio wandering through sundry Earth Nation cities, where they encounter signs of troubles between the once-harmonious, elemental tribes representing fire, earth, air, and water. They also bump into trouble with the occasional evil kingdom, as in "The King of Omashu," where Aang must go through various trials to save Katara and Sokka from a bizarre execution. (They're encased in growing, crystal structures.) "Imprisoned" finds Katara inadvertently responsible for the arrest of an Earthbending boy who dares to use his powers while his people are under Firebender occupation. The ambitious, two-part "Winter Solstice" is the best production in this collection, a pairing of storylines involving the capture of a Firebender war criminal and the hopes of a frightened village that turns to Aang to defeat a monster from the spirit world. The action is still original and fun on this sequel--most of it continues to be based on exciting uses of the elements--and the lead trio's characters (Aang the scamp, Katara the idealist, Sokka the skeptic) are still a pleasure to be with. --Tom Keogh

Book 1: Water, Vol. 3
The Avatar saga continues with four of the anime series' strongest stories yet on Book 1: Water, Volume 3, mixing goofy comedy with mythic drama in the spirit of Avatar's magical debut (Book 1 Water, Volume 1) and engaging follow-up (Book 1 Water, Volume 2). Volume 3 concerns the continuing (perilous) travels of Aang, the 12-year-old Airbender destined to heal the rift between the world's air, water, fire, and earth peoples, and his friends Katara and Sokka. "The Waterbending Scroll" finds Katara so jealous over Aang's quick mastery of complicated waterbending techniques that the trio ends up in trouble with a cluster of cutthroat pirates. "Jet" is an interesting story of an adolescent boy leading a Robin Hood-like rebellion against the firebending occupiers of his land. Charismatic and rakish, Jet makes Katara swoon and becomes a hero to Aang--until his true colors and agenda show up later. "The Great Divide" places Aang and company in the position of mediating a truce between refugees seeking assistance across a great canyon. Finally, "The Storm" is a superb piece which shows us, in parallel narratives, how Aang was fleeing his oppressed life as an avatar-in-training a century earlier when he became encased in ice, and how the driven, seemingly merciless Prince Zuko lost his own boyhood innocence before setting out to capture Aang. This excellent collection carries on the series' imaginative, graceful animation, making Avatar a real pleasure to watch. --Tom Keogh

Book 1: Water, Vol. 4

Book 1: Water, Vol. 5
Chapters 17 through 20 of Avatar the Last Airbender: Book 1 Water, Vol. 5 find Aang, the 12-year-old Avatar destined to bring peace to the world by mastering the four elements, once again in direct collision with the forces of the Fire nation. In "The Northern Air Temple," a sad Aang visits the ruins of a monastery well known to him in his past life. Aang is shocked to discover a tribe of faux Airbenders living there, presided over by an inventor with a dark and even treacherous secret. "The Waterbending Master" introduces Aang to a mentor he would just as soon avoid: an old Waterbender who can teach him to move, shape, and fight with liquid, prerequisites to Aang assuming his place as the world's savior. Meanwhile, Aang's traveling companion Katara is frustrated by that same master's refusal to sharpen her own natural, Waterbending talent; until, that is, an unexpected link between them becomes clear. (Aang's other friend, Sokka, stays busy--and crazy--chasing a princess who gives him mixed signals about her romantic interest.) "The Siege of the North, Parts 1 and 2" is yet another epic confrontation between Admiral Zhao's Fire Navy fleet and the Aang gang. The twist this time is that Zhao attempts the murder of Prince Zuko, an action that cannot go without consequences. As usual, Avatar is visually exciting and highly original, an otherworldly yet fully accessible fantasy full of dreams and good humor. --Tom Keogh

Nickelodeon's Masterpiece.......2007-08-29

For some reason I expected this to be good. And I wasn't really disappointed. I have to point out that this is one of the few animations that is actually for kids. It doesn't contain an overwhelming amount of violence. In fact the action scenes aren't very full contact but they're very entertaining.

The story has to be one of the best I have seen in a very long time. It also has a pretty good charasmatic cast as well. Intelligent dialogue and well written stories. I say the only con to me is the main character. I fully understand that he is very young. But sometimes his immaturity really annoyed me. And he didn't seem to learn too much from his mistakes and take his role as the savior very seriously. Overall I still like him though. The second main character Katara is by far my favorite followed by the exiled prince.

I have to note this for the diehard anime fans. If your looking for the Naruto type of action and comedy or the over bloody head shattering killings, or fan service. Then stay away from this. This show is not about that at all. It does not have graphic death or nudity scenes.

Overall this is a very good watch for both children and adults. And its the best thing I have ever seen on Nick. The set is 5 DVD's containing 20 episodes. I'm glad I learned about this and I'm going to get the second volume the day it comes out. I caught a few more later episodes and it only gets better.

The BEST cartoon I've ever seen to date.......2007-08-23

Words simply cannot describe this series. Seriously, you have to watch it to believe how good it is. Once you do, you'll be hooked and you'll be back here writing the next review. I guarantee it. :)

I salute Nick for achieving the impossible and kudos to all the writers, artists, composers and talents that contributed to this series.

Great DVD set.......2007-08-13

My family loves this series. Everything about Avatar, The Last Airbender is wonderful--great story, great characters, great humor, wonderful animation, kid-friendly, cute animals. If I could give it higher than 5 stars, I would. We intend to purchase all of the sets.

Excellent!!!.......2007-08-12

This is wonderful animation. It is beautifully drawn and the storyline is incredible. Great entertainment for all ages and you will never be bored of watching it over again. I have preordered the box set volume 2 which will not be available until September. My family and I can hardly wait to see if Aang the Avatar saves the world. Highly recommendable, you will not regret it.

Probably the best season!.......2007-08-06

On a personal note, and agreeing with the other reviewers this is the one I've been waiting for, Magnum Pi's seventh season is I would say the best.

Most magnum pi fans would agree that seasons one, two and three were great, the show lost its way a little with seasons four, five and six, but then picked up again brilliantly with seasons seven and eight.

Season seven has no doubt the most memorable episodes of the entire series, ask any fan and just to name a few they would immediatly shout out episodes such as 'death and taxes', 'paper war', 'little girl who' and the outstanding season finale 'Limbo'.

Any person who is on the fence with this one should just purchase as its fantastic entertainment!

Best Season.......2007-08-02

Definitely one of the best seasons if not THE BEST for the simple fact that it contains the episode "Paper War". This is the episode where Higgins and Magnum have an all out prank war, truly a fun episode. Also it contains the episode "Laura" with Sinatra himself!

Little Girl Who, Paper War, and Limbo!.......2007-08-02

Magnum P.I. is my favorite TV show of all time. It ran for 8 seasons. Season 7 contains some of the very best episodes of the series. Here are the episodes:

L.A. - While in Los Angeles to do some work for Robin Masters, Magnum meets Dana Delany. While some fans of the series love this episode, it's never been high on my list. I don't hate it either, but I don't see much special about it. This episode is two hours long.

One Picture is Worth - Magnum protects a woman who was a witness to a bank robbery/murder. There's a cliché scene where Magnum and the woman are hiding in a remote shack, and the bad guys are outside shooting at them, and the shack gets set on fire.

Straight and Narrow - A woman whom Magnum had met in the season 6 episode "The Hotel Dick" now hires Magnum to find her missing sister.

A.A.P.I. - Magnum tries to solve the murder of a famous French detective, who was poisoned at a convention of private investigators. There are also some dream sequences along the lines of 1940s film noir.

Death and Taxes - Magnum keeps getting phone calls which are either from a prankster, or from a crazy serial killer. This is one of the better episodes of this season.

Little Girl Who - This episode is one of the reasons why season 7 is a must own for fans of the series. This is a continuation of the wonderful "Memories Are Forever" from season 2. Just like that episode, this one is emotional, powerful, well written, well acted, and a real tear jerker.

Paper War - This is another one of the gems from this season. In one of the funniest episodes of the series, Magnum and Higgins repeatedly up the ante in an ever escalating series of practical jokes against each other. Magnum's mentioning of having an uncle named Otis who worked as an elevator operator is a joke that not everyone will get, but the point of the joke is that there is a real life elevator company named Otis. This is one of the best episodes of the series.

Novel Connection - This is the first episode of a two part crossover with "Murder She Wrote." I really enjoy the scenes with Angela Lansbury, whose acting performances are always a joy to watch. But the other guest actors are nowhere nearly as interesting.

Kapu - After being shot, Magnum wakes up on a small island and is taken care of by the natives.

Missing Melody - After 7 seasons, the writers of the show decided that T.C. was divorced and has two children. T.C.'s daughter gets kidnapped. I think the writers must have been pretty desperate for ideas when they wrote this one.

Death of the Flowers - Magnum tries to help his friend Carol to find out if a judge is taking bribes.

Autumn Warrior - Higgins takes a bunch of teenage juvenile delinquent brats on a survivalist trip into the wilderness.

Murder by Night - This is a nice homage to 1940s film noir.

On the Fly - This time it's T.C.'s turn to get shot.

Solo Flight - While mountain climbing alone, Magnum gets bitten by a centipede, and ends up trapped under the wreckage of an old World War II fighter plane. Magnum has lots of flashbacks, and we see many clips from previous episodes. The guy who played Mr. Roper on "Three's Company" also appears.

Forty - Magnum celebrates his 40th birthday, and falls in love with a reporter.

Laura - Frank Sinatra gives an absolutely wonderful performance - not as a singer, but as a retired police officer. I won't spoil the plot for you. This is a very good episode

Out of Sync - Dana Delaney comes to Hawaii to play the same character that she had played earlier this season.

The Aunt Who Came to Dinner - Magnum's aunt comes to visit. Apparently she has Alzheimer's disease. This is about as interesting as those ABC Afterschool Specials.

The People vs. Orville Wright - Rick confesses to having committed murder. This is a pretty good episode. But the most important thing is that the ending sets up the beginning of the next episode.

Limbo - When it originally aired, this was to be the last episode of the series. This is an extremely moving, emotional episode. I won't spoil the plot for you. I will say that this episode is absolutely essential viewing for fans of the series - if you only watch one episode form season 7, I recommend that it be this one. The song playing throughout much of the episode is "Looking For Space" by John Denver from his 1975 album "Windsong." After this episode aired, they decided to do one more season.

Jurassic Park
Steven Spielberg's 1993 mega-hit rivals Jaws as the most intense and frightening film he'd ever made prior to Schindler's List, but it was also among his weakest stories. Based on Michael Crichton's novel about an island amusement park populated by cloned dinosaurs, the film works best as a thrill ride with none of the interesting human dynamics of Spielberg's Jaws. That lapse proves unfortunate, but there's no shortage of raw terror as a rampaging T-rex and nasty raptors try to make fast food out of the cast. The effects are still astonishing (despite the fact that the computer-generated technology has since been improved upon) and at times primeval, such as the sight of a herd of whatever-they-are scampering through a valley. --Tom Keogh

The Lost World - Jurassic Park
In the low tradition of knockoff horror flicks best seen (or not seen) on a drive-in movie screen, Steven Spielberg's sequel to Jurassic Park is a poorly conceived, ill-organized film that lacks story and logic. Screenwriter David Koepp strings along a number of loose ideas while Jeff Goldblum returns as Ian Malcolm, the quirky chaos theoretician who now reluctantly agrees to go to another island where cloned dinosaurs are roaming freely. Along with his girlfriend (Julianne Moore) and daughter, Malcolm has to deal with hunters, environmentalists, and corporate swine who stupidly bring back a big dino to Southern California, where it runs amok, of course. Spielberg doesn't seem to care that the pieces of this project don't add up to a real movie, so he hams it up with big, scary moments (with none of the artfulness of those in Jurassic Park) and smart-aleck visual gags (a yapping dog in a suburb mysteriously disappears when a hungry T-rex stomps by). A complete bust.--Tom Keogh

Jurassic Park III
Surpassing expectations to qualify as an above-average sequel, Jurassic Park III is nothing more or less than a satisfying popcorn adventure. A little cheesier than the first two Jurassic blockbusters, it's a big B movie with big B-list stars (including Laura Dern, briefly reprising her Jurassic Park role), and eight years of advancing computer-generated-image technology give it a sharp edge over its predecessors. While adopting the jungle spirit of King Kong, the movie refines Michael Crichton's original premise, and its dinosaurs are even more realistic, their behavior more detailed, and their variety--including flying pteranodons and a new villain, the spinosaurus--more dazzling and threatening than ever. These advancements justify the sequel, and its contrived plot is just clever enough to span 90 minutes without wearing out its welcome.

Posing as wealthy tourists, an adventurous couple (William H. Macy, Téa Leoni) convince paleontologist Alan Grant (Sam Neill) and his protégé (Allesandro Nivola) to act as tour guides on a flyover trip to Isla Sorna, the ill-fated "Site B" where all hell broke loose in The Lost World: Jurassic Park. In truth, they're on a search-and-rescue mission to find their missing son (Trevor Morgan), and their plane crash is just the first of several enjoyably suspenseful sequences. Director Joe Johnston (October Sky) embraces the formulaic plot as a series of atmospheric set pieces, placing new and familiar dinosaurs in misty rainforests, fiery lakes, and mysterious valleys, turning JP3 into a thrill ride with impressive highlights (including a T. rex versus spinosaurus smack-down), adequate doses of wry humor (from the cowriters of Election), and an upbeat ending that's corny but appropriate, proving that the symptoms of sequelitis needn't be fatal. --Jeff Shannon

All three movies in one convenient box! I purchased this set to replace my combination of VHS and DVD singles that made up my personal copies. The prints are excellent and well worth the price and convenience of having them as a stand alone set.

An All Time favourite!!!.......2007-08-24

Well, Well, Well!!! Jurassic Park 1,2 & 3. I have saw all of these movies on numerous occassions, however I decided to buy the boxset so I may watch them at my leisure. Jurassic Park ( all 3) deserve a 5star rating but I have a reason for giving them a 4star in this review which I will explain in a moment. Jurassic Park is the result of a brilliant mind combined with modern day technology and special effects. Its results are realistic dinosaurs in modern day and mans ability to get up close and personal with these critters. Tricerotops, brachiosaurs, T-Rex and an even more dangerous dinosaur than T-Rex whose name escapes me appears in the third. An ingenious idea of re-awakening a long extinct species comes true which I believe may have formed the basis of many a youngsters dream! In fact, it is the youngsters that cause me to give this review a 4star. The movies are geared towards all ages. What is needed is a realistic approach to what a dinosaur would do when the kids are NOT watching. Please, Please, Please make a Jurassic Park with an over 18's certificate. I bet the two kids would not escape the kitchen with the 3 raptors if it were for viewing only by an older audience!!! Even though such a movie may only exist in my dreams, for now JP 1,2&3 still amaze me. Thank you Stephen Spielberg, I cant wait to see what you come up with next!!!

Dino-tastic!!!.......2007-08-11

These movies let us live out the fantasy that dinosaurs still roam the earth. Special effects, storyline and creativeness of the director/writer is most enjoyable. Recommend to all prehistoric reptile lovers. Acting is a bit strained and characters could have been developed more. It's like most of the attention to detail was on the dino's and special effects and actors were thrown in as backdrop/afterthought.

Movie review.......2007-08-10

I am so happy I got this. It is a great deal for I love these movies

A LIFETIME WORTH'S OF DINASOURS.......2007-07-31

The first film here is the real wonder of the trilogy. Up to 1993 we simply hadn't seen anything special effects like those before, mix that with Spielberg's hability for suspense and you have yourself a classic. To me Jurassic Park has aged pretty well even though we've seen so many CGI movies since it first came out, perhaps many more than we would have wanted to.
"Lost World" is a mixed bag, most of the excesive human characters range from mediocre (the leads) to plain indifferent (the villains) and they really kill the film despite (again) great and improved special effects. I absolutely hated the "rich people are all bad " and "child in jeopardy" routines and found the gymanstics vs. raptors scene the worst thing Spielberg has done/will ever do in his life. Also, after a while of the raptors missing the heros you start to doubt if they're really motivated on getting them or keep on "just missing" them. Ad a first half hour when absolutely nothing relevant occurs and you get the idea what kind of sequel this is. Perhaps the problem is what Spielberg claims in the "making of" regarding the movie being born out of "popular demand", in other words, simply money.
I liked the third movie a lot more than I expected even though the raptors keep on miraculosly missing the leads. At the end of the movie you come to realize Sam Neil is a lot more capable on carrying this kind of movie by himself than Jeff Goldblum
I recently read they'r gearing up for Jurassic Park IV for 2008, personally after this trilogy and the new King Kong I feel I've had plenty of dinasours for a lifetime.
