Dragonheart: A New Beginning (1999)
For children, not 16-year-old punk kids.
I loved the first Dragonheart.
I threw a party last weekend, and saw this movie for sale in Wal-Marts "$5 and under movie" bin. I regret I ever took it out.
The story goes that after Draco. "Last of the Dragons" died, he reveals a gift to Bowen before he dies, a dragon egg. If Draco was last of the Dragons, where the H*** did the egg come from? So the young Dragon, named Drake grows up in Brother Gilberts monastery basement/dungeon area thing. A young boy, Geoffery, goes down into the dungeon, where he befriends Drake.
enter the generic bad guy who toys with he boy's dreams and convinces him to become a knight. Enter the two stereotypical Chinese old Kung-Fu master and apprentice who turns out to be a girl sent to kill the last evil dragon, who is in the form of a man.
Guess what, the bad guy IS the Dragon! SHOCKER! He and Drake fight i the air, despite the above-average special effects for its time, it was rather boring. the evil Dragon, Griffin, breaths fire. Yhen, out o nowhere, Drake masters the ability to breath ice and freezes Griffin, who shatters into a million pieces when he drops 30 feet from the air. One of the ice shards hits Geoffery.
Huess what, he gets half of Drakes heart, they become heroes, and everyone is happy.
WAY TOO HAPPY! The first Dragonheart was an action-fantasy epic, this movie is just a dull kids version. 2/10
Three people left he party during the movie because it was so horrible. Let your younger siblings see it, you just wont love it
Earthworm Jim (1995)
Simply the Best Video Game Cartoon Series. Ever!
The Super Mario Bros. Super Show was nothing super.
The Legend Of Zelda was no where near as good as the games.
Sonic the Hedgehog got canceled as fast as Sonic could run.
Viewtiful Joe lost the viewtifulness of the game.
Earthworm Jim... now where getting somewhere.
This show was witty, and downright hilarious. The series was based after the popular video game, and its sequel, Earthworm Jim 2 (creative, eh?). The series follows Jim (Dan Castanella, the same voice as 'Homer Simpson' from the 'Simpsons'), his pall Peter Puppy (who transformed when enraged into a hideous beast), Jim's precious princess girlfriend, and his adorable pet slime (yes, I think he's adorable. shut up). The writing and excellent voices spawned the Best Video Game Cartoon series. Ever! If you have a chance, give Jim a chance. Then play the game if you have a Sega Genisis or Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
Nacho Libre (2006)
NAcho is not Racist
Nacho Libre gave everyone what they expected from Actor Jack Black (School of Rock, King Kong), director Jared Hess (Napoleon Dynamite), and producers (Paramount and Nickelodeon Movies) except one ting, racism. This movie uses a location, Mexico, where Latinos are the majority group. You can not call Jack Black racist for portraying a Mexican priest/luchador, and especially not the other actors to be racist against Latinos, because they ARE Latinos.
Also, most reports of people I know saying this movie is racist, have not seen it, or REFUSE to see it because "It is a racist movie, and you can tell from the trailers that if you see this movie, you hate Mexicans". That is a DIRECT QUOTE from a friend of mine who believes in discrimination towards Latinos in Hess's films. I say the only thing wrong in this movie, is that you have so much fun watching it, it goes by
