Randy Orton's Time begins

Posted : 1 year, 9 months ago on 10 February 2008 12:02 (A review of WWE: No Mercy 2007)

WWE No Mercy was a PPV that was without John Cena thank god he got injured. With John Cena off the show we get to see the WWE Championship on the line 3 times in one night.

Match 1 for WWE Championship was Randy Orton VS Triple H this was just a normal match it was not that bad. Match 2 Triple H vs Umaga this match was pretty good both men do some good moves during the match. Match 3 which is the match of the night a last man standing match Randy Orton vs Triple H both wrestlers were great during this match.

The event also features some weak matches like the Khali and Batista match in the Punjabi Prison very slow match and boring. The pathetic thing is that Khali looks like he can get out but just goes as slow as an old man.

There is plenty of others included on this event and in my mind this was the best event of 2007.

As for the DVD extras we get these

- John Cena Surgery - for the lovers of John Cena you get to see his surgery though I couldn't care less about this.
- Batista Interview after Punjabi Prison Match - the interview not very long I don't really care about this feature in my opinion they should of interviewed Randy Orton wining the title.
- The aftermath next night on Raw - This is the return of Shawn Michaels I think if I am wrong I'll update the error.

Beavis and Butt-Head Do America review

Posted : 1 year, 11 months ago on 4 January 2008 08:22 (A review of Beavis and Butt-Head Do America)

Beavis and Butthead are stupidly funny I seen this movie ages ago and its funny even better then their great TV series. This movie is one worth checking out if you need a laugh.

Oh the cast line up is wrong the director was not Yvette Kaplan she directed the animation. But this movie was directed by creator of Beavis and Butt-Head Mike Judge

Rumble in Hong Kong [Region 2] review

Posted : 1 year, 11 months ago on 31 December 2007 11:18 (A review of Rumble in Hong Kong [Region 2])

This movie is bad all over for starters Jackie Chan only features in a tiny bit of the movie he plays a bad guy. The editing is really bad it's all over the place and the dubbing is just terrible it is out of sink all the time. In parts when someone speaks it clearly misses it out.

The real name for this movie was Police Woman they used Rumble in Hong Kong to cash in on Jackie's own full movie Rumble in the Bronx.

The Sequel Fails

Posted : 1 year, 11 months ago on 31 December 2007 11:15 (A review of Are We Done Yet?)

Are we Done Yet? well i hope your done killing a classic. This sequel is awful the jokes were not even funny the 2 kids looked bored. The whole thing with John C. McGinley playing Chuck a man who does everything was stupid and boring. Ice Cube was not the problem he was good in it. It was the writers fault for making this piece of garbage. Are we there yet? was classic and it was funny but this was just worthless and not funny.

Mr Bean Rowan Atkinson Legend

Posted : 1 year, 11 months ago on 22 December 2007 02:43 (A review of Mr. Bean - The Whole Bean (Complete Set))

First of all this was not aired on the BBC first this was shown on ITV. Mr Bean is a great show and the DVD is classic and funny. After going on Amazon reading comments i read that the people in America have a longer version with added scenes then the original British version. This is just like the DVD i have the only problem is i live in England i have the Dutch DVD as they were just all out in the UK.
This is the same as it was shown in the UK so America is seeing our version to. Well Mr Bean is a legend and this is one DVD worth buying for classic comedy.

The Simpsons Movie (Widescreen Edition) review

Posted : 1 year, 11 months ago on 22 December 2007 11:39 (A review of The Simpsons Movie (Widescreen Edition))

The Simpsons movie is great has its funny moments the only shame is it's pretty short only been about 1 hour and 17 minutes while the credits last about 7 minutes. The DVD extras are ok but i think they could of added more with it been The Simpsons. But still this is worth buying for any Simpsons fan if you hate the Simpsons you must be stupid.

Royal Rumble 2006 could of been better

Posted : 2 years ago on 16 November 2007 05:56 (A review of WWE: Royal Rumble 2006)

The royal rumble is one of WWE's biggest events 30 men in one ring to get the match to fight at Wrestlemaina.

the matches are as followed

Gregory Helms vs Kid Kash vs Funaki vs Jamie Noble vs Nunzio vs Paul London - 6-Way Cruiserweight match for WWE Cruiserweight Championship
I enjoyed this match most times i hate Cruiserweight matches a lot of high flying moves the winner Gregory Helms i was glad aswell as i think he is a great wrestler.

Mickie James vs Ashley Massaro (w/Trish Stratus as Special Guest Referee)
The diva matches dont really mean anything to be because i find them boring only if trish or lita were fighting then it would be a diffrent story. It was an ok match but Ashley is boring while Mickie was entertaining during that time.

The Boogeyman vs John "Bradshaw" Layfield (w/Jillian Hall)
This match only lasted 1 min and 54 seconds a boring match which is disappointing to a royal rumble ppv, The match ends with a Pumphandle Slam with the winner been The Boogeyman. Then Boogeyman puts some worms in Jillian Hall's mouth.

The Royal Rumble Match
This was a silly place to feature the rumble overall this Rumble was ok it started out with Triple H and Rey Mysterio. The match was good but Rey Mysterio won you know a guy like him would never last that long. Still though Rey is an interesting wrestler.

John Cena vs Edge (w/Lita) - WWE Championship
This match is worth a skip you know who won I don't care for Cena but Edge has more quality.

Kurt Angle vs Mark Henry (w/Daivari) - World Heavyweight Championship
Putting these 2 together kurt angle is a good wrestler mark henry is rather boring.

Overall Royal Rumble 2006 has it's good share of matches put this one is not classic and i dont think it will be remembered.

The dvd extras are not worth it at all 2 boring extras which are
- Kurt Angle and Mark Henry Story
- Rob Van Dam and Tatanka Smoke A Peace Pipe

Oh theres one thats pretty good
- Past winners of the Royal Rumble

I would of liked the full royal rumble 2006 theme posted on the dvd because i think the theme was great but they cut it. The TV Spot for the Rumble by the McMahon family should of been included but wasn't which is a shame because it's a really good TV spot.

Fonejacker - Series 1 review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 14 October 2007 04:04 (A review of Fonejacker - Series 1)

The Fonejacker is a show from Channel 4 which was first shown on Channel 4 Comedy lab it was that popular Channel 4 commissioned the show. This show features Kayvan Novak doing prank calls to unsuspected people which is extremely funny.

There's George Agdgegwngo who is after people's bank account number and sort number trying to steal people's money. Terry Tibs another dodgy man a car salesman wanting cars or fridge's at cheap prices. Mr Doovdé a man who says stuff in a different way mainly to annoy people. Mr Miggins an old man who just cant get used to the internet anything in the modern world. There's the rent a house sales man who just gets stuff wrong all the time. The Chinese kid who is was asking to buy a pirate dvd or to film from the back of a cinema. The dodgy Indian trying to sell internet or phone services this one is just classic and you have to see the one with the estate agent makes me laugh all the time.

There's many more people Kayvan Novak does in this show some pranks are shown while most are shown in animation but who cares it is still funny. The dvd is worth buying i bought it myself and it is worth the money Fonejacker is a classic.

Save your money on this WWE DVD

Posted : 2 years, 2 months ago on 3 September 2007 04:36 (A review of WWE Bloodbath - The Most Incredible Cage Matches)

Not a really good WWE release to many old cage matches from 1970's etc which to me just makes it boring. I would of liked to have seen The Rock vs Triple H in the cage full which was in the UK but sadly this is put into highlights and yet this match has not been released in full on DVD. What should of been added is The Rock vs Shane McMahon in the cage from Raw (Raw is War) I think it was 2001 that match.

Also I wasn't happy with Stone Cold vs Vince McMahon been cut into highlights but you can catch that match in full on the McMahon DVD anyway. I pay to see full matches not highlights which for the price your paying for this DVD WWE should of shown the whole match as some have never came to dvd before or even video. Though it has a pretty good match with Edge and Kurt Angle from SmackDown.

For what your paying for this dvd is not worth it because its mostly highlights and the matches aren't interesting when your cutting parts out as you are missing the action. With this set it just felt like WWE wanted to rush it and they just never felt like editing the old WWF logo out. The main problem I hate that there are many match during 1975 up 1990 which I don't like that old footage which I did like it from 1997 to until now. As I will say WWE could and should of done better with this DVD set instead it just feels rushed but I was glad that Johnathan Coachman presented the DVD.
