Movies that I added to Flixter

I may have rated this movie higher than it deserves, but it is because my aunt (Lynn Gabriel) is in it.

A great short film from Kevin Smith starring Brian O'Halloran and Jeff Anderson.

Hilarious movie with Brian O'Halloran.

Brian O'Halloran at his best

A very funny flick, worth watching at least once, probably more.

Another great piece of work from Kevin Smith

A great documentary about Dogma, not sure why the poster is screwed up on here though.

LOL, the Pink Power Ranger, as a vampire.

Another classic comedy that many people do not know about.

A live action music show starring the TMNT.

I suggest that everyone get a copy of this one.

A good movie, not great.

Sure it was a made for TV movie, but it is about wrestling and therefore I liked it alot.

Total crap.

Frickin' Hilarious. Include appearances with Kevin Smith.

Another great Documentay.

Another great Documentary with Kevin Smith.

Another great Documentary that Kevin Smith was involved wiht.

Kevin Smith was also the producer of this film. Another good Documentary from them.

Another Kevin Smith thing. A must see

A pretty good flick, that features Kevin Smith.

A great laugh fest. I suggest some heavy drinking before viewing.

A very good, very funny flick about a guy needing to see Star Wars on opening day.

Very Funny, 3-D movie that comes with the DVD.

Good for what it is.

It was meant to be for an informational movie, but now it is just flat out funny.

Bad Movie

Decent Flick, help to start the series.

One of the movies that made the TV show possible.

One of the movies that made the TV show possible.

Of all the Hercules tv-movies that were made, this one manages to achieve the tone and theme of the Legendary Journeys. Kevin Sorbo and Michael Hurst have good chemistry with each other. My only problem with this tv-movie was the flashbacks. In my opinion, they really just slowed things down. Other than that, this pretty good and should be seen.

Of the first four Hercules movies that preceded the television series, this is easily my favorite. Hercules must save a town from an opening to Hades. Along the way, he faces several temptations and a slew of monsters. But that's not his greatest challenge. Deianeira has been killed and Hercules must find her while he's in Hades and bring her back to the land of the living.

- These Hercules movies aren't about great acting or deep plot lines. Don't watch them expecting Academy Award winning material. These movies are about having fun. And Hercules in the Underworld delivers fun. From Hercules' battle with the giant Eryz the Boxer to his taking on zombies in the underworld, it's pure eye-candy filled entertainment. The special effects are quite good given the limited television budget. It's easy to see Sam Raimi's (Executive Producer) influence on the special effects. Many of creatures, etc. are used by Raimi in his Evil Dead movies.

- Kevin Sorbo is the perfect television Hercules. He plays the character with tongue firmly in cheek. He's big enough to be believable and he's athletic enough to pull it off. The supporting cast is, for the most part, adequate enough in their roles. The exception is the most experienced actor of the bunch - Anthony Quinn. He just seems so out of place that I'm glad wasn't used in the regular series.

Decent Flick

This was the student film that spawned the later theatrical release starring Robert Redford.

Another good short flick from George Lucas. I recommend seeing it as soon as possible.

Forget about cinematic technique or even plot: This movie will blow you away. Yeh, the plot is cookie-cutter, but they took the trouble to hire performers who could make it work well enough to not detract from the outrageously realistic action sequences.

George Lucas was one of the camera men for this movie.

Found at both Tommorow Land (Disneyland) and MGM Studios (Disney World). This is one of the best rides in Disney. No kidding. You start out in line. Do not get a fast-pass. In WORLD, you get to go through Droid rooms, and all that fun stuff. A singing droid. The skeleton of the first Audio-animatronic. Egroeg Sacul.You will not want to miss this. Then you get in your Star-speeder. That's right, the same technology used for the military. You start out in liftoff. Oops, your captain, Rex, went the wrong way. Then he takes you on a ride to the Emperial Ship. Uh-oh. Anyway, I highly recomend this ride. Keep a look out for the Mighty Microscope, THX-1138, and a certain tag on Rex.

This is the video that goes with the ride.

This is a great flick with shorts from some of the best film makers ever.

I saw this during a lecture at Cornerstone University's Journalism Institute. Honestly, I'm having a hard time understanding the film's application to journalism. Still, I enjoyed it very much.

George Lucas was the camera Operator though.

Great flick a must see.

As a huge fan of the original Indiana Jones movies, I must admit that I did not take to liking the young Indiana Jones Chronicles when i first watched them. I saw them again for the first time since then around two years ago and i have been hooked ever since. I found these stories and tales of Jones as a young man fascinating and extremely enjoyable to behold. The way important characters in history such as Hemingway and even Al Capone are integrated into the plot as the young Indy finds himself in ever more exiting and elaborate situations should be enough to grab the attention of any self respecting Indy fan. Sean Pattrick Flannery did an amazing job as Indy and the many 'future stars' that played important roles in the ever changing plots showed the strength and distinction of these pieces of genius. I was saddened to find out that these mini-films were made over a decade ago and prey that some day, Harrison Ford and Sean Pattrick Flannery may be brought together again (as they did in the Chicago episode) and have another go at yet another piece of the Jones saga, before yet another unfamiliar actor is brought upon to don the cowboy hat once again. LONG LIVE INDY!!!

Though the YOUNG INDIANA JONES movies are getting really tiresome, Sean Patrick Flanery continues to give great performances in them as the title character. I first saw Flanery on the short-lived UPN show THE STRIP and since them I've been renting every movie that he has been in. He's a really good actor and that is why it is such a shame to see him in movies like this. It's also a shame that George Lucas is producing this drivel.

This would have been great...if it wasnt supposed to be about Indiana Jones. I mean, it did NOT have that Indiana Jones feel. Like in the three movies. It left you thinking, "Nice war movie, but where the hell is Indy?" So, it's good, but don't go in expecting the fun excitement expected of an Indy movie.

seems to start out a little slow, but then it gets going toward the end. Spring Break adventure combines Indy's first adventure at home in NJ and then it starts off an entirely new adventure in Mexico with Pancho Villa. Remy is introduced for the first time, and Indy first learns what war is all about. All in all, I think it was a good movie to start out the older young Indy with Flannery.

First off, sound man Ben Burtt proves he can direct here. Attack of the Hawkmen is one of the most fun Young Indy episodes. As a bonus, if you are a Lucas fan, you may spot Threepio Anthony Daniels with a French accent in one scene, as Francois, where Indy is briefed in a big hurry by a couple of scientist types.

This film was very well done. Lots of attention to detail, entertaining, though often not very historically accurate (the facts were cleverly manipulated). I think the directors and producers went to a lot of trouble choosing the most convincing actors as possible (a good example is Marc Warren, who played Baron Manfred von Richthofen). Sean Patrick Flanery is also a very good actor, and I would recommend seeing the rest of the Young Indiana Jones series, as I feel it is very under-rated, considering the effort that got put into the making of it. I enjoyed this film a lot, and would recommend watching it, especially if you are a fan of Indiana Jones, WW1 aviation or the Red Baron.

The first half of this straight to video film (it's comprised of 2 episodes from the show) is filled with great humor, ancient treasures and all the swashbuckling action and adventure Indian Jones fans have come to love.

The second half of the film slows down considerably. As mentioned above, the film is actually 2 episodes from the show, and like most t.v. shows, many episodes have distinctly different feels from one another (E.R. for example may have a more light hearted episode occasionally, or one that focuses primarily on one character). Unfortunately, the two shows, while making sense to put them together makes as they are in sequential order, they don't match up very well in tone on style. While the first half is a lot of Indy style action, the second slows to an almost crawl. The first half many will prefer, but the second has it's own merit as well. The two just do not flow together very well.

Still a strong exciting and funny first half (Flanery really gets to do the Indiana Jones thing in this one!), and an interesting (if a bit too ponderous) second half still make up a strong if slightly disjointed finished product. A must see/own for Indy Jones fans, and worth if only to see the invaders fighting Indy on the Ocean liner! A sequence more than worthy in the Indiana Jones adventures!

It wasn't ALL bad -- actually, the sets and costuming were excellent (the 1920s - such an aesthetically pleasing time period!). And the bits of the actual movie "Foolish Wives" were good, because they had the authentic Erich in them. The most painful parts seemed to occur whenever the main characters had dialogue. Some of the lines exchanged between young Indiana Jones and the heroine made me want to retch. There are some actors whose delivery and skill can make a cheesy piece of dialogue work -- these two do not belong to this group. They were trying to be youthfully cutesy, and the results were not pretty. The heroine says things you'd never expect anyone to say in normal conversation, lines that sound clumsy and forced, especially out of her mouth -- she doesn't seem comfortable in her role.

Enjoyable hokum and a throwback to the days of Saturday morning serials at the local cinema. A young hero, evil baddies and a dastardly plot that must be foiled! If you like the old type Boys Own adventures, this will be lots of fun. Just don't expect all the nuances of today's modern film making. This is all action, seat of your pants stuff for almost 80 minutes.

I felt transported back to my youth and can recommend this series of films, some are better than others and others are worse, but they all have a sense of fun.

Also nice to spot all the faces from British television, one actor from long running UK soap, Coronation Street, plays a German World War 1 officer. Quite a change of pace!

A young Catherine Zeta Jones plays a Mati Hari spy before she went on to Hollywood blockbusters and marriage or vice versa....

As young Indy, Sean Patrick Flanery makes an engaging hero and like the rest of the cast in this, looks to be enjoying himself.

Identical twin-filmmakers Michael and Marc Linn made this film when they were 15 and 16 years old, and think this film is more a rip-off than a parody of the _Indiana Jones_ films, the end credit actually says "based on...") but _Indiana Jed_ is full of youthful inspiration in the all-teenage cast. They spent almost $4,000, and budget constraints put the film in a contemporary setting, which gives the film a lot of funny twists in itself. Unlike the Jones film, this is a male-buddy film with Jed and Cmdr. Marc as the buddies, and the film is played for laughs, which it does effortlessly. Highlights include the character Jeremy, some drunken teenagers, Carl Schoenborn, and especially Hethe Henrickson as Beloch, a rival archaeologist (whose last name happens to be Henrickson), who is also the ultimate in ham villainy, who is after the Infinte Power, which will make him shoot rays like Emperor Palpatine. Unfortunately, because the brothers see the film as a rip-off, they have no plans to re-score it (it currently uses a temp-track that includes the Jones films, The Addams Family, The Rocketeer, Ricochet, The Hard Way, Mountains of the Moon, Sleeping With the Enemy, JFK, and lots of Cliff Eidelman's _Star Trek VI_ music, among others) and release it officially (which they can't in this current state), though they do sell it through their website. By the way, the film contains some stupendous car chases, in which windshield wipers are used as weapons...

A hilarious short piece about a wacky kid and his adventures in trying to help his friends out. The humor isn't corny and it's not even smart, but it makes you laugh nonetheless.

A fantastic story, with great acting from the lead. One of his Hispanic buddies understands English yet only says two words NOT in Spanish the entire time (if you understand Spanish these parts are even funnier).

The cinematography/editing looks professional -- it's hard to believe that the graininess and such is a mistake, because it adds to the feeling of dullness in a small, rural Idaho town.

Not as good as the first, but still well worht the time and money for this one. I could listen to this man talk three or four times a week.

Decent movie, not as goos as the series though.

I can't wait to see it.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are in a rut. They've nothing to do and thirst for action! They'll soon get it when they get wind that hoods are robbing all sorts of fancy stores, but take only the cufflinks. But why? The turtles intend to find out. They dress up in fancy clothes and rubber masks and go to the next scene of the crime. Leonardo proclaims they must switch sides in order to get the lowdown on the scam and catch the thieves in the act. They go to join Big Louie's gang, who are the ones currently snatching the cufflinks. But first, Big Louie claims they must put a rival gang on ice, and they do at a nearby shopping mall's ice rink. Then, Big Louie tells them of a special kind of cufflink: the Cufflinks of Café. One of them is a powerful explosive disguised as a diamond. See, Big Louie is in cahoots with Shredder, who needs that explosive to get the Technodrome out of it's rocky terrain. The turtles head for the Calzoni Mansion, because Mr. Calzoni is a lover of cufflinks-- and pizza. Right then, Big Louie, along with Shredder, Rocksteady and Bebop arrive. So do April O'Neil and Irma. The turtles retreat in their Turtle Van, but sadly, April and Irma do not. They're kidnapped and ransomed for the cufflinks, which Donatello grabbed before the commotion.

The showdown is at the taffy factory. Shredder unexpectedly get's the explosive cufflink, but when he accidentally dropped it, he blamed the turtles for tricking him. This is a neat Ninja Turtles special! There was another one too, Planet of the Turtleoids. It's also pretty cool. If you like the TV show, this one's for you!

There is something wrong with this film. Something that doesn't make alot of sense. Maybe its due to under-funding or perhaps its something more.. But either way, its a -do not see-. I will say however that I thought the two lead performances weren't bad.. But a movie has got to have MORE to it.. It needs something original. This film didn't have that.

This is a 30 making of movie for the worst movie in the turtles franchise.

For the FFX game fans this is really a dream come true. Every time you wanna enjoy the great storyline of Final Fantasy X can put on this 400 min long Manga. I'm also a big fan and i really enjoyed watching the movie over and over again. It follows exact the same storyline as the game. The atmosphere is great, you really get to know the characters and that's good for your involvement in the movie. You shouldn't expect a manga like "Spirited Away", "Ghost in the Shell" or "Grave of the Fireflies" cause the critical viewers will not be satisfied. This DVD is just released for the fans who enjoyed the game so much, The DVD is released by Square Enix, the mastermind behind FFX. A Great movie. This is not a promotional disc with trailers and all that sort of things, this is a real Japanese manga movie. This DVD is hard to track down but once you have it, it's really worth it!!

The Ninja Turtles, Leonardo, Michaelangelo, Donatello and Raphael, discover a planet inhabited by turtles: Shellrelah. They're taken there by Kerma, a short turtle being. The turtles couldn't have picked a worse time to leave earth, for Shredder uses mutagen on a bull and a mole, transforming them into two more fearsome mutants: Groundchuck and Dirt Bag. He also builds a giant robot, Chrome Dome. Shredder even commissions dozens and dozens of Foot Soldiers to construct a mini-Technodrome. The turtles defeat evil on both worlds! I don't remember this special all that much. I know that fans of the cartoon show will love it. Groundchuck and Dirt Bag returned in another episode of the series, I can't remember which one, but they do get parts in the Turtles' video game: Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project. And the turtles returned to Shellrelah in an episode of the show, Return of the Turtleoid. So anyway, check out Planet of the Turtleoids! There's Leonardo the leader, Donatello the creative genius, Raphael the wise alleck, Michaelangelo the party dude,Shredder their enemy, Splinter their sensai, and April O'Neil their reporter friend. Even Krang, Rocksteady and Bebop are along for the ride.

I loved the Turtles cartoos when I was younger!

Not very good.

The possibility of intimate relations between android and human has been referred to in several motion pictures, notably BLADERUNNER, directed by Ridley Scott, and that is the subject of this poorly composed work, produced for cable television, written by its director Richard Kletter and science fiction author Isaac Asimov, from a short film of Kletter's: "Teach 109". At the Institute For Surgical Research androids are subjects for empirical surgery, as the robotic creatures, formulated with the precise likeness of man but without a soul or an ability to feel pain, are able to express their exact internal physical condition throughout invasive procedures. Harley Jane Kozak portrays Dr. Karen Garrett, a newly fledged surgeon who has been selected by the head of the Institute to perfect a method for correcting a particularly severe cardiac condition, exploiting androids as experimentees. The individual chosen for her surgical task is of an advanced design of replicant played by Griffin Dunne, called Teach, and a burgeoning relationship between it and the doctor occupies the remainder of the romantic comedy. Teach has unexplainedly an eloquently endowed and rebellious personality and the script describes how, when attempting to maintain control of her wayward medical subject, Karen falls in love with it. Upon its persistent request, she smuggles Teach out from the Institute to enable it to learn of the real world and to interrelate with humans, and the film's problems become overwhelming at that point. A most obvious difficulty is in acceptance of Karen's abrupt metamorphosis from a dedicated and ambitious surgeon into a rather giddy and love-struck amorosa of an artificial being. Dunne and Kozak are noted for performing in roles emphasizing their talents for the expression of wry humour; Dunne responds well to strong direction (not available here) whereas Kozak has too limited an acting range to do much with this thinly written piece. A highly episodic scenario offers copious holes: the "outside world" into which the oddly matched lovers escape in this story set in the future has a remarkable similarity to contemporary Toronto, the streets of which are cleansed of human life whenever the storyline requires gunfire or other excessive activity; the casting is quaint with seemingly significant characters vanishing from the plot; there is precious little character development in lieu of inclusion of "twists" that don't and plot surprises that employ a telegraph; poor Kozak is given perhaps the most ludicrous line when she avows to the android: "You are the love of my life" - not edited properly, so that we are privy to the beginning of her afterlaugh - typical of this slipslop production.

Jeffrey Ross, a Friar's Club regular and comedy club mainstay for the past 15 years, steps into the role of documentary filmmaker in "Patriot Act." As part of Drew Carey's USO tour, Ross recorded over 15 hours of footage during a five-day trip through Iraq. What had begun as a home movie soon turned into something more for Ross as he was faced with the realities of war. Although the film is essentially a comedy, "Patriot Act" contains many heart-felt moments. Blake Clarke, one of the comedians on the tour and a decorated Vietnam Vet, recounts memories of war, the 60's anti-war movement, and military life then and now. Ross interviews many soldiers stationed throughout Iraq, giving the viewer honest, first-hand accounts of the controversial "war on terror."

"Patriot Act" is a wonderful film about war, the healing power of comedy, and one man's journey from the comedy club circuit to the front lines in Iraq.

This is basically just the game, but in a movie format.

Because the View Askew universe is embedded within the Degrassi universe Smith uses every opportunity to play around with what is rooted in what universe. The day to day-one (where he's Kevin Smith the writer/director), the Degrassi universe (where he is also Kevin Smith but not married and the director of a Silent Bob movie) or the View Askew universe (where he is Silent Bob in some typical scenes). All three cross over. And to weave all of this into the Degrassi story lines is a pretty amazing balancing act I would say. His wife in real life, Jennifer Schwalbach, has a funny cameo as The Blonde. There's a hilarious scene where he's hit on by a very drunk Caitlin Ryan (who appeared on Degrassi Junior High) that later helps the Degrassi story move ahead. The Alanis Morisette cameo is awesome. Well you'll have watch both episodes (and maybe the previous one to see the setup) yourself but if you are willing to see the whole structure and dig the play between those universes it's a very satisfying watch.

This film is from 1899, and is the earliest known film adaptation of one of Shakespeare's plays.

Best documentary of a making of I've ever seen.

It's quite funny, with Jon Heder and his brother.

A pretty good flick with Brian O'Halloran.

This is the movie that Stan Lee made his big screen debut appearance with.

This was never released, but it had a Power Ranger (Jason David Frank) and a Clerk (Brian O'Halloran) in it.

Great Documentary.

Another early picture from Kevin Smith/Brian O"Halloran. This little known flick, has a phenomenal script and is filled with little known, yet great actors.

Who couldn't love this flick, it has comedy and it about a porn star.

Some of Kevin Smith's work as a comic book character writer.

A great documentary about a good movie.

One of the best sports socumentaries out there.

Documentary all about Spiderman, very well done.

I only wish that I had a copy of it to watch again. This is classic film school stuff here.

Ok Doc.

Great doc, about a great movie. Included on the Clerks X DVD.

similar to george lucas in love.

Kevin Smith and Mark Hamill do this one on the history of Batman.

Great making of Doc.

Good flick about the Superman saga.

Another early film from George Lucas. This was not one of the better ones, but still it's ok.

The original Wonder Woman.

A very good short film that was shot on the same set as Lord of the Rings. Directed by Sean Astin and has an appearance from Peter Jackson

The movie that kicked off the TV show for Wonder Woman

ok movie

"Wow!" is a 40-minute Laserdisc that was produced to showcase the THX Home Theatre Systems. As I understand it, they were only available to purchasers of THX systems. Fortunately, a friend of mine was selling these systems a few years ago, so I was able to see this disc!

In addition to several tracks of systems tests there are 3 main "Demos". The first, and best, is "Wow!"; a collection of clips from the Star Wars Trilogy, the Indiana Jones Trilogy, and Willow, with John Williams' incredible music in the background. The second is "The Home THX Audio System", which is an overview of how the system works, given by Tomlinson Holman, creator of the system. The third is "SOUNDTRACK!", an engrossing look at the creation of a final soundtrack using the opening scene of "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade".

Not a great flick but very good.

George Lucas was the sound editor for this flick.

Good Flick, about the wright brothers other brother. Jon Heder (Napolean Dynomite) is also in this flick.

A behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of the film MacKenna's Gold (1969).

Written and directed by George Lucas.

That's how George Lucas conceives how making a film. It's his first one and he never changed his mind about that. For George Lucas, cinema is like painting or sculpture: a TECHNICAL ART. Writing is not really important. Writing is the last thing that "makes" a film. The images have to tell the story. That's why the Lucas' shorts movies were silent. And the last Lucas' films are always. Images, sound, editing, and not important dialogs: that's how we should see The Phantom Menace or Attack of the Clones.

Look at "Life" is a nice one-minute short which condenses all these concepts. It shows really how this mean to do can create the emotion.

Any Lucas fan worth his salt will want to check out this embryonic piece detailing the failed attempt of a boy to escape from unknown pursuers; presumably representatives of a repressive "empire". It is noteworthy that even at this stage of his career, Lucas was fascinated by war. The bitter disillusionment expressed here provides a sharp contrast to the cheerful optimism and good-triumphs-over-evil ending of the Star Wars trilogy. The symbolic desire for freedom here could equally apply to freedom of the imagination, an autonomy Lucas has always sought from studios in producing his work.

A short film made by George Lucas while attending USC.

USC film student George Lucas always liked cars. He hung around Carroll Shelby's firm enough to convince the Shelby Daytona designer, Pete Brock, to drive a borrowed Lotus around the Riverside track. There are no words in the movie, but see if you can read Pete's lips when he spins out.

Nice cinematography for a student.

An early Jeff Foxwothy film. This shows why he has been voted one of the worst actors ever.

Here's another student effort from the guy who made it cool to attend film school: Georgie Lucas. Surprisingly audacious cinematically, and almost plotless scriptwise, "The Emperor" is another in the long line of Lucas's student films that showcases the director's skill in establishing tone. This is a jokey documentary on a southern California disc jockey who proclaims himself "The Emperor". (Perhaps if you've seen a later, feature-length Lucas film, the title character might remind you of someone.)

While Lucas's other USC efforts ("Freiheit", "Anyone Lived in a Pretty How Town", and "Herbie") are humorless, well-meaning but dull, "The Emperor" is just the opposite. Benefiting from a worthy subject, this opus is funny, fast, and, at times, astonishingly innovative. Crammed with a rock soundtrack of sixties classics, "The Emperor" now feels like a precursor of "American Graffiti" (1973), albeit with a different visual approach; Graffiti was shot in 35mm color Techniscope. "The Emperor", on the other hand, is laced in a Richard Lesterish/French New Wave style: grainy B&W 16mm handheld camerawork and clever use of intertitles. (Note: "The Emperor" has an amazingly long pre-credit sequence; it's only beginning once you think it's over.) "Apocalypse Now" co-writer (and USC alum) John Milius was one of the crew members. Look sharp for a George Lucas cameo at the top of the film.

What can you say, it's the turtles celebrating Easter.

An homage to avant-garde acting coach Roy London. Not a well done movie, but decent.

I watched this film on November 1, 2004, the day before election. It was showing on the HBO Family series 30 by 30 Kidflicks. The premise interested me. Being a young filmmaker, I was glad that someone so young was brave enough to make a film about politics. The film surprised me, stating the facts of the 2000 election while keeping a sense of humor. Stovall's sense of humor is a childish one, I'll admit, but it works. I believe the kid has talent. Don't worry. I doubt he'll be the next Michael Moore. (No offense to Mr. Moore.) If you haven't seen it, I recommend it. It may be boring for those not steeped in politics, but it is still a good movie.

Very bad doc.

It simply doesn't go anywhere. You slog through almost an hour and a half of...well, not much more than what we've seen on the nightly news for the last year and a half, plus a couple of cutaways. There are no moments that would be Candid Camera worthy, and even at half its current length it still would've felt too long. She needed more...moments, more insights, more truths that we're not privy to from the mainstream media to make this film worthwhile. And there aren't any. Towards the end of the film, she gives John Kerry a big speech outlining what her goals for the film were. They went through one ear and out the other; whatever they were, they just didn't succeed

All about Carrie Fisher and her famous parents.

First Assistant Director David Tomblin spend most of his days off and lunch breaks during the filming of "Return of the Jedi" (or 'Revenge of the Jedi' or 'Blue Harvest', if you will) on his own little 24 minute project, "Return of the Ewok". Eleven year old Warwick Davis inspired this fictional account of him landing the part of Wicket W. Warrick (omiting the fact that he was only picked from being a background character because Kenny Baker got ill). It features most of the film's stars (except Kenny) in costume, plus Roy Kinnear, and some sequences from the Battle of Endor filmed from a different angle (with Tomblin's personal 16mm camera).

In the film, young Warwick is looking for a job. After trying his tiny hands at weightlifting in David Prowse's London Gym and goalkeeping for his favorite soccer team, Chelsea, he passes a Cinema playing "The Empire Strikes Back". He can actually see the film being projected from outside the theater, and Mark Hamill back out of the theater 'for a breather'. Now Warwick decides to go into acting himself and finds a talent agent (an uncredited Kinnear) who offers him the part of 'Ewok' and sends him off to Elstree.

Dressed up in fur, 'Ewok' knocks on Harrison Ford's dressing room, who in turn asks Mark and Carrie (wearing the famous metal bikini) what an Ewok is. They tell him to join the creatures at Jabba's palace. There he finds David Tomblin choreographing a dance number, featuring two women only glimpsed amongst the crowd in the final film (one in a red catsuit and the other wearing a white wig with blue streaks). They move to the original version of Lapti Nek sung by Joseph Williams of Toto (and I always thought Lucas was kidding when he said that scene was always supposed to be longer).

Warwick stumbles onto the Death Star set where Boba Fett takes a shot at him (this is the only part of the film available on DVD, if you know where to find your Easter Eggs) and Darth Vader sitting on the Emperors' throne. Finally co-producer Robert Watts leads Willow-to-be towards Yoda, who issues the Youngling with a galactic passport to Endor (or to be more precise, California) He arrives just in time to find the other Ewoks and join in the battle. Warwick says goodbye to the Star Warriors on the spot where they took their promotional group shots and walks off to his parents, who also happen to be on Endor apparently.

For many years this elaborate Home Movie remained just that, with the only VHS copy thought to belong to the Warwick family. Now known as The Leprechaun, Davis finally screened it at the first Star Wars Celebration (Denver, 1999), and subsequently has taken it with him around the world on conventions (I saw it at the Dutch Starcon on October 23, 1999). After Celebration II, a four minute edit was made available for Hyperspace subscribers on Starwars.com in may 2005. Soon after wards it won the Pioneer Award in the Official Star Wars Fan Film Awards, and of course bootleg copies have surfaced on the Internet. However, nobody knows what happened to the original 16 mm print, because everybody seems to have lost contact with David Tomblin. There is also a rumor that a 'sequel' was shot during production of the first Ewok movie, Caravan of Courage.

Oh man these are great.

I loved this show as a kid growing up, and this was the movie that ended it all.

This movis was shot during the summer of 1991, after the last episode of the series was shot but it aired the summer of 1992 just before the final season aired.

This is an okay flick starring one of my favorite Degrassi High stars Stacie Mistysyn.

Really bad.

This is more a documentary about how they got along on set than a movie.

This is really quite funny it was shot by the cast backstage.

Really bad.

Good considering it was a made for TV show nearly 30 years after the series.

Good considering it was a made for TV show nearly 30 years after the series.

Probably the best of the 'Brady' movies, and the only with nearly the entire original cast.

This was the made for TV movie that set up the very forgettable TV series.

a very forgetable Disney channel movie.

Really bad. has nothing to do with either 'The Rock's' walking tall or the original series.

A direct to video release based on the cartoon Sabrina series.

Made for TV and staring the beautiful Mellisa Joan Hart. That is about where the good parts of this comes from.

a very bad movie with Sarah Chalke

A Lifetime channel original movie that starred Sarah Chalke (SCRUBS, ROSEANNE) and had a very touching story.

Better than expected, but still not that great.

Ok, we were forced to watch this is a Communications Theory class last semester, and I would have to say that those people are all F***ed up. They got a bunch of people with weird barbie obsessions to go on camera and talk about the doll. Ruth Handler was the the founder of Mattel toys and gives interesting insights into the company though.

Pretty good for a short film of it's time

Much much worse than the second which was much much worse than the greatness of the original.

Not exactly what you would have expected from a Disney flick, but a decent flick for what it is.

It's the X-Files how could I not rate it perfect?

I couldn't not do it.

It's ok, not great.

Hilarious for a short flick.

Very good, quite original.

Very good insight on the whole Marvel situation with two of the greatest creators in comic book history. Narrated by Kevin Smith.

Another good Marvel animated flick.

I'm not fond of the XBox/PC game Halo by any means. I consider it a very average and unremarkable shooter, save for its use of vehicles. But even with that said, the satirical machinima series Red vs. Blue will always occupy a place in my heart.

The show is shot entirely using the XBox version of Halo, albeit with the game's HUD cropped out. (The aiming reticule is still there, and although it can be a bit distracting at first, you get used to it, and it's part of RVB's "independent film" appeal.) Other than some visual touch-ups, everything there is real and can be duplicated. Also, all of the characters look alike, so they are differentiated via the colors of their armor.

So what's it about? The series lampoons numerous things, including shooters, military life, sci-fi culture, and Halo itself (Church: "These arms aren't that flexible!"). It's set in the rather plain box canyon known as Blood Gulch (a multiplayer map in Halo) during the period between Halo and Halo 2. At one end is the base of the Blue Team; at the other, the Red Team base. Both sides are caught in a fierce deadlock during a capture-the-flag game. In reality, both teams are incredibly inept and would rather spend their time bickering, finding ways to kill time (such as tossing rocks through a teleporter), or just sort of spying on the other team.

On the Blue Team is Church, the sarcastic, impatient leader; Tucker, his somewhat serious-minded partner; and Caboose, the scatterbrained rookie who is often the origin of RVB's many famous quotes.

The Red Team is not much better, though. There's Sarge, a sergeant (duh) with an outlandish Southern American accent; Grif, the soldier who is the butt of most of Sarge's criticism; Simmons, a soldier who gets respect from Sarge and is accused by Grif of being a kiss-ass; Donut, a weird newbie in pink/lightish red armor (even though he's a guy); and Lopez, a robot whose speech unit shorts out later in the series, allowing him to only speak Spanish.

The teams don't stay put, though, and before long, all sorts of weird things happen. The Reds receive a Warthog-class jeep, leaving the Blues to compare it with their own tank in terms of attracting girls. Caboose inadvertently kills Church by blasting him with the tank. Church, now a ghost, possesses Sarge's body and makes him spit inside his own helmet. And that's just the first 19-episode season. But what really makes RVB shine is its great writing, scripting, and voice work.

Amazing Documentary about one of the greats on the NBA.

It's the Penultimate sports highlight film.

Good documentary, though I don't always agree with the points that it makes.

Good for it's time, but it's really dated now.

It's a good story, but the bad acting really brings down the movie.

This was pretty good, but not nearly as good as the real Hercules movies, much better than the TV show though.

It has the very beautiful Miriam McDonald in it.
