Family Guy - Season 2 [1999]

CD-Charts > DVD > Substores
by: Seth MacFarlane
starring: Seth MacFarlane, Alex Borstein, Mila Kunis, Seth Green

Release Date January 27, 2003
I seriously doubt that I have to take the time to explain what Family Guy is, as the chances are that you - like so many others are a fan, or at the very least have seen some episodes.

In my opinion this second season of Family Guy considerably improves on the first, which is not something that's easy to do as season one was nothing less than fantastic. But Family Guy season two is packed to bursting point with hilarious and sometimes outrageous jokes. Seth MacFarlane never fails to deliver pure comical entertainment. It's good to be given a daring show that not afraid of offending people (on that note if your easily offended then you probably should avoid Family Guy.) I would have to say the best episode in the season is "Let's ... Read More:

The Ultimate Bourne Collection Steel box set [2007]

CD-Charts > DVD > Substores
starring: Matt Damon, Albert Finney, Clive Owen, Franka Potente, Brian Cox
directed by: Doug Liman, Paul Greengrass

Release Date October 20, 2008
I bought this because it would save me space. It's the size of a normal DVD box, feels great and looks slick.

The DVD's in themselve are great as everyone knows. A fourth? It might be in the pipeline but wasn't written by the guy who wrote the original books.

The story as it goes in brief if you haven't already discovered. Bourne is an agent for the US government. Sent to do a job which goes array. He losses his memory and from the beginning of the first film, Bourne tries to recall who he is and tries to work out his memories.

The plot starts in the Med. and takes us on a rollercoaster of a ride. Visiting all the big hitters in Europe. France, Germany, England to the USA for a grand finale.

CD-Charts > DVD > Substores
starring: Dermot Morgan, Pauline McLynn, Ardal O'Hanlon, Frank Kelly
directed by: Declan Lowney

Release Date October 29, 2007
Father Ted is one of these things you can watch over and over again, and laugh each time. Whether your waiting at the airport, or just at home with a cup of coffee, it never fails to make you smile.

Along with all 25 episodes, there are commentries from Graham Linehan (writer), Arthur Mathews (other writer) and Ardal O'Hanlon (Dougal). As well as that there is "Ted and Dougal Do Comic Relief", "Ted Fest 2007: A Very Ted Weekend and Two Tribes Go to War" "Interview with the Writers (Part 1 & 2)", "Dougal's Soundtrack" and "Comedy Connections" to name but a few.

As for the actual comedy, you can't get much better. The swearing isn't vulgar and the gags are never cheap. Professional actors aren't missed, as Dermot Morgan and Ardal O'Hanlon's humour ... Read More:

I watched this film as a child, then as an adult, and it always amazes me. Another truly heart warming Christmas film! Richard Attenborough portrays a wonderful Santa Claus, with his remarkable acting skills! It does not matter what age you are with this movie, old or young, it will warm your heart at Christmas time, with a few laughs along the way.

The World At War - Complete TV Series (11 Disc Box Set)

CD-Charts > DVD > Substores
starring: Laurence Olivier

Release Date April 25, 2005
I remember watching this as a kid and recently saw parts of it again on the History channel and have found it incredibly moving - just the theme music with a series of shocking pictures culminating in the gaunt face of a young girl at the end, is truly chilling. The series examines every aspect and angle of the war in great detail. It does not shy away from some shocking footage and yet never feels like it is revelling in it. It is a serious historical work and yet it never drags. Watching it again I was struck by how many of those interviewed are long dead now, and how lucky I have been to never experience anything like the suffering they endured, and how future generations should never forget the price of their freedom.

The Holiday [2006]

CD-Charts > DVD > Substores
starring: Cameron Diaz, Jack Black, Kate Winslet, Jude Law
directed by: Nancy Meyers

Release Date March 26, 2007
I cannot recomend this film enough! It's funny, its romanitc and an all round great film. The sound track has something that makes you want to play it all over again. Jude Law, Jack Black and Kate Winslet all gave brilliant performances, Cameron's however, lacked the certain pizaz that she ususally has. But over all, one cracking Christmas film!

This DVD was worth the purchase for the Learn the Alphabet extra feature alone. This held the attention of my 3 year old and has the added bonus of being interactive. Simple for kids to navigate using arrow and OK buttons on your remote control.

Mad Men

CD-Charts > DVD > Substores
starring: Candice Cunningham, Emelle, Kiernan Shipka, January Jones
directed by: Alan Taylor

Release Date June 30, 2008
After seeing that this won an Emmy for best dramatic series, I decided to buy it. I hadn't seen it on TV, and watch most series on DVD. I got through 3 1/2 episodes, and, with nothing at all happening of any interest - aside from all the blatant attempts to constantly remind the viewer that it was 1960 - I gave up. I don't see the point; the characters are cardboard cutouts, the dialog is flat, the storyline, or what little there is, is uninteresting. Others like it, and it's beyond me why.
