Phantom of the Opera, a review by GSyren
(From Reviews and ramblings by Gunnar on January 25th, 2014) Captain America: The First Avenger, a review by AchimCaptain America. The First Avenger I made a point of seeing Captain America in 2D. Only by making a choice like that we can stop the madness I quite liked it. I thought they tried hard to walk around the pitfalls that come with a film about a superhero whose name has America in it. I am not easily offended by such things but still noticed how toned down it felt. I quite enjoyed the origins story in this one; I was not aware that Captain America was/is a man-made superhero. My favorite actor in this was Stanley Tucci as the German scientist who escaped the Nazis to created the program that would create Captain America. Tony Stark's father was pretty much just like him The best special effect must have been to make Chris Evans so skinny. While this movie plays during the second world war, it does tie in with the upcoming The Avengers movies. Strongly looking forward to that now. My Rating: (a weak) (From Captain America: The First Avenger on August 2nd, 2011) Tom's TV Pilots marathon, a review by Tom
Futurama 1.01 Space Pilot 3000 Writer: David X. Cohen (Writer), Matt Groening (Writer) Director: Rich Moore, Gregg Vanzo Cast: Billy West (Fry/Farnsworth/Zoidberg/Various (voice)), Katey Sagal (Leela (voice)), John DiMaggio (Bender/Various (voice)), Dick Clark (Himself (voice)), Leonard Nimoy (Himself (voice)), Tress MacNeille (Various (voice)), Dave Herman (Various (voice)), Kath Soucie (Michelle (voice)) I have been a fan of this series since day one. It's nice to finally see the first episode again. It has been awhile. I forgot that it started out with Fry running from Leela because he wanted to avoid to have a career chip implanted. They have dropped this concept later it seems. And sure enough, you can really see Nibbler's shadow in the scene where Fry falls into the freezer. It was an episode in a later season which revealed that it was no accident that he was frozen, but caused by Nibbler when he travelled back in time to ensure Fry being frozen. Is it me, or are the voices that Billy West is doing (Fry/Farnsworth) a little different than later in the series? Rating: (From Tom's TV Pilots marathon on June 20th, 2011) |
