Batman In Japan
Warner Brothers did this season of the famous Batman animated series as a Japanese anime. For the most part, it is a great season. The reason? Cos it was kind of like Doctor Who, in that it didn't have too many floppy episodes, but even when it did, they didn't necessarilly suck. But looking at some of the great ones, you can't help but love the good storylines and superior animation. The Joker ...

Batman: is an excellent adventure cartoon series
I have got the first two series and I found them interesting and exciting and the animation is very well done and look very realistic and the voice actors for the characters are on par Kevin Conroy by this time was getting more confident with peoviding the voice for both Bruce Wayne/ Batman and Effrem Zimbelist Jr for Alfred was also supurb because he wasn't the first choice for the character. ...

Been waiting for this one
My wife and I first saw this Blu-ray movie at a/v specialty store months ago. We were actually distracted by the movie because it was so good. I am not a "discovery" channel kind of person but this one is really interesting. Highly recommend this for any high def viewers.

spectacular end to one of the best animated tv series ever made.
Colorful, complex and engaging characters you really get to know and care about. Deep, intelligent storyline. Spectacularly good writing. At turns suspenseful, scary, touching, funny, charming. The kind of show that is so wise it can make you a better person. Breath-taking, monumental conclusion, exceeding all expectations. But that's what Avatar has always done - exceeded all expectations. ...

Great Batman substitute for kids too young to watch The Dark Knight movie
I have a 5-year old and a 4-year old who both love all things Batman. There's no way I'm going to let them watch a PG-13 rated movie. So, "The Dark Knight" is going to have to wait. This DVD collection is my solution. While there still are some scares among these episodes, this collection is overall easy on young kids while still providing the action and excitement they crave.

Volume 3
As a long time Stooge fan, its nice Sony is releasing the complete Stooge shorts. My only question is will it stop after Curly? I hope they release Shemp's shorts, even though alot of them are remakes in the later years. I give props for not changing the format of the discs (thus far) and Amazon preorder price is always $17. Like I said in the last review, Stooges have been around for almost 80 ...

The MUST Have Series For Sci-Fi Fans
"Stargate SG-1 - The Complete Series Collection" is arguably the best Sci-fi series ever made. I know the various Star Trek and Babylon 5 series lovers are going to disagree, but for creative plots and pure action this one is hard to beat. Other than the series pilot, which contained full frontal nudity, this whole series can be watched by even fairly young children. We watched it as a family, ...

Remind us why it's good; then make it better
These DVDs are the only ridiculously overpriced cartoon series I would purchase (or ask for as gifts) before marketers came to their senses and realized almost no season of anything should be worth more than 15 to 20 dollars. The guys who made this bothered to read Batman books. Old ones. New ones. Good ones. Dorky ones. Then they thought about what made it cool. They borrowed all the fun ...

Truely wonderful
If you've never seen Anime before, this isn't it. What it is however is a near perfect synthesis of east meets west, both in terms of Animation and of Content. So much of Western Animation is episodic, where each episode does little or nothing to advance a greater plot or story. This is serial, with most episodes moving the story forward bit by bit, step by step. The four elements are western ...

what about "The Complete Epic"?
I have been waiting for "The Complete Epic 1902-1959" to be released on DVD for years. And now I want it on Blu-Ray. This isn't it. I'm talking about the 1981 VHS release of the first two films combined into one, in chronological order with additional scenes. Godfather II, as everyone knows, contains flashbacks which don't necessarily add to the narrative. Tell the story in the order it takes ...

Action and special effects are completely smashing. Characters are great. Writing is awesome and thought-provoking. Music is good. A definate must-see for everyone.

My Son is Autistic. He loves Elmo. Elmo gets him to focus on something and the consistant format is a desired quality. This is a good buy on a tight budget.

The Thin Man Collection
As a Thin Man fan, I was really pleased with this good quality collection. I was replacing my taped versions of the movies. I found I actually was missing one, Shadow of the Thin Man. So I was thrilled to add that one. The extra in this collection is Alias Nick and Nora which has good bios on both William Powell and Myrna Loy.

Fantabulist Movie
This movie has everything - love, death, duels, a giant, a magic man,an evil prince, and a miracle. What more could you ask for in a movie? The stars are excellent, the story is fantabulous! Don't miss this one. It may be an older movie, but it lives forever in your imagination.

Family-friendly learning that's fun
I bought this video for my sons because these songs had a great effect on my schooling. I was hooked from "Conjunction Junction" and never stopped being a fan. We like to play this DVD in the mornings, selecting the "spicy" version, which plays the songs in random order. Our children watch it as they have breakfast. This makes me happy for two reasons: 1. I know the catchy songs will ...

One of the Best Bonds Ever
Daniel Craig is the best Bond since Sean Connery. At first I was like but he doesn't look like a Bond. Well In the first five seconds I forgot all about that. He does a fantastic job playing the role. This is Bond's first mission and he plays the part perfectly. Bond loves, hates, and wants revenge. Something we have never seen Bond do, and i don't think anybody could have done it better. The ...

Great entertainment
I have three kids, and two of them are Batman fanatics. They got a lot of viewing time from this set (and season one, as well). The graphics are good and the storylines are usually better than average for this genre. A good entertainment option.

Excellent Series for "big kids" too.
I am 25, and enjoyed this series very much. The writing/script was powerful, moving, well thought out, well executed, and very humorous at all the right times. I was impressed with the shows ability to hold my attention without the usual adult language, themes, and content. For being geared towards kids it was very entertaining. I can't wait to buy the whole series, once it is released.
