Hannah Montana - Life's What You Make It (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the third Hannah Montana DVD to be released.
These are the episodes:
* Achy Jakey Heart Pt. 1
* Achy Jakey Heart Pt. 2
* I Am Hannah Hear Me Croak
* I Want You To Want Me To Go To Florida
Being a Hannah Montana fanatic, I thought about going out and getting it the first day it was released. But, instead, I waited and got it at the library. And, boy, am I glad I waited! Personally, I think this DVD is really boring. For one thing, these just aren't my fave episodes. And for another, these are really popular episodes, that everyone has already seen at least twice.
As far as Bonus Features go, they have two. Billy Ray Cyrus singing "Ready, Set, Don't Go"; and a "Behind the Scenes" with the cast.
The music video is okay, but like the episodes, everyone has already seen it a half dozen times. Also, on the thing with the cast, they ask really boring questions, like "Would you like to have another identity?" or "Are you good with secrets?" They ask those same questions in every interview and magazine article!
Overall, this is a DVD chock full of, well, nothing new. But, if you could find it on sale somewhere for 5 bucks, it might be nice to have, just to add to your collection.

Real World Reunion: Inside Out (1995) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This little reunion is a must see for Real World fanatics especially fans of seasons 1-4. Allison Stewart MTV VJ takes us on a ride through the first four seasons bringing back all the castmembers for a reunion. The usual drama ensues between Puck & Judd when SF season comes out. It goes into a little piece on Pedro and his memorial service. But it has backstage drama as well. First off all the seasons go to dinner to discuss their season but the tables are mixed with different casts. The part I like best is the peek at audition tapes from most of the castmembers including Puck. I always like to see the audition tapes to see how they got on the show what stood out in their tape. Some of the tapes are hilarious. For me the first four seasons are the Real World the concept was still there. These new seasons are so camped up and exaggerated. I was a senior in high school when SF season aired so I lived thru the first four. I own it and recommend viewing take a nostalgic trip back to when The Real World was still experimental.

The Lawnmower Man (New Line Platinum Series) (1992) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The first time I saw "The Lawnmower Man" I felt something was missing from the story. I had this same feeling about "The Abyss." When they first release "The Abyss" on DVD it included two version of the movie on one DVD. The second DVD contains other materials about the making of the movie. The movie went from 145min to 170min. With though additional 25 minutes the movie had structure added to it. The science fiction part of the story stood out. The same thing could be said about the "The Lawnmower Man" if they would release the Director's Cut of this movie on DVD.
The theater version of "The Lawnmower Man" on VHS was 107min in length and the story seem to be missing something. Then the Director's Cut came out on VHS and it was 141min in length. The added and rearranged scene made this story presented more structure to it. The concepts of what led Job to do what he did at the end of this feature are explained.
Uniformity, it does not seem that no one has no intention to release the Unrated Director's Cut on DVD and VHS copies ware thin after so many plays. I do see that you can still get the Unrated Director's Cut version on VHS through "Amazon.com" for $10.00 without shipping & handling cost. If you have never seen this version of the film I would advise you to get it on VHS. The whole story is presented here and it made change some people's opinion about the movie.
I am aware that some of the outtakes are presented on side B of the DVD. If you do not know where they fit in the story it can be very confusing and appear to be unimportant. Also, a lot of the scenes were rearrange to fit the theater version and this miss up the original story.

The Real World - The Complete First Season - New York (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The original and best (in my opinion) season of MTV's "The Real World" finally sees a DVD release! But beware... although everything you've seen involving Norm, Heather, Julie, Eric, Becky, Andre', and Kevin is here- the music has been rescored. I'm sure that getting the home video rights to all of the songs that were used when the show was originally aired would have been a logistical nightmare. If you want to relive Norm, Heather, and Julie roller skating to Cece Peniston's "Finally", you aren't going to see it here. You'll see them skating, and you'll see their lips moving to a song, but what you'll hear is some generic, instrumental song instead. If you want to relive Eric's ex-girlfriend Missy coming to visit him to the tune of Prince's "Diamonds And Pearls"... again, you're not going to see it on this DVD collection! The scene is there but the music is not.
Rescoring music for home video release has long been commonplace in the video industry. "Sixteen Candles" (the 1980's Molly Ringwald flick) had about half of its theatrical music deleted and replaced when it made it to video. The difference between that and this is that the "Sixteen Candles" video packaging offered a disclaimer: "Some of the music has been changed from the original theatrical version." There is no disclaimer on the "Real World" packaging. This is quite misleading.
If you can get past that (and I must admit... it does make a difference. The tone of the show has been changed somewhat, but it's still entertaining nontheless), you'll love this collection. The original pilot (featuring a different group of 7 strangers) is included, as well as a copy of Julie's acceptance letter. That is quite an interesting read for any "Real World" fan. The only thing that would have made this collection even better would have been commentary from the cast. Even if they couldn't have got the entire cast (Andre' has only been back for one reunion show), it would have been really interesting. Some outtakes and bloopers would have made nice extra goodies as well.
All in all... a decent collection for fans. Maybe MTV will get it right with the next season's DVD release.
