Advantages: Surprisingly good
Disadvantages: .. it has a lot to live up to.

...Cartoon Network has a new show and they carefully linking it with the popular Dragon Ball Z. Batman of the Future, no, not Batman 2029, although I imagine it is set in that sort of time scale. I thought it would be dire and I am pleased to see that the director is clearly aware of all the pit traps the show could have fallen into and is trying his best to stay out of it. Bruce Wayne is an old man – but not so old that he can’t kick the backsides of a few ‘Joker’ punks. Worse still (and perhaps the best twist so far for me) Wayne Enterprises is the junior partner is a new, nasty business conglomerate… and the presiding CEO is the Baddie. Yeah, yeah, there was the predictable angst when the neo-Batman’s father gets killed while the young fellow is away. I’m not giving the plot away – any Batman fan knows that that needed to happen...

Advantages: Melodic, cool, soulful and deep
Disadvantages: Absolutely none

...which combines his perpetual love with a mellow beat and smooth undertones. All in all a fantastic album which belies Legend's relative inexperience. A real star for the future.... Read review

...New Rapper just come out of no where and has exploded on to the hip hop scene with a fiery album with raw lyrics. This man looks to be one for the future. He is a lyrical genius like Eazy-E, smooth like BIG and makes you think about life just like 2Pac. If this man can continue to make music like this then he could take over hip hop and become a living legend. Tracks to listen 2 anr the Ruff Ryders Anthem, Stop being greedy and Damien. However some of the skits are quite annoying but htey only last for about 30 seconds and can be ignored. One to buy.... Read review

Advantages: Find out if urban legends are true or false, lots of information, regularly updated.
Disadvantages: It takes up your time.

...to work on introducing a lot of new things at the neglect of all the old information they have which can often lead to most information on the site being out of date and even incorrect. --Uses-- The site is useful if you hear something and want to know if it is true or not. Either you will find the information on the site and know if what you have heard is true or you can ask other people on the message boards and hope that the site includes the rumour in the future. I find the site is very useful to if you want to show someone that something that have said is false (or even that it really is true if they have asked). Maybe someone keeps sending you e-mails with urban legends on them, maybe you keep reading messages on message boards, maybe you know someone who just won't believe that something they have heard isn't true. In almost all... Read review

Advantages: Graphics | New Modes | Done By Koei | Story | Officers | Battles | Edit Mode | More Tactical
Disadvantages: Repetitve | May Seem Like The Same Old Thing | Better If You Have Dynasty Warriors 5 | No New Characters

..., whom are not that good at the game or are new to it, they have included a new difficulty level in Xtreme Legends called Novice, which is really easy and for those whom are new to the game, it is a great start for new gamers. There are also the other difficulties (easy, normal, hard, chaos) which allow you to get better at the game at your own pace. The game is great value for money, considering it is an expansion pack (which you don't in fact need Dynasty Warriors 5 to play this game, just to enhance it with load original) you can pretty much guarantee it will be fairly cheap. It is £19.99 on amazon.co.uk which is a good price, but you may be able to find it cheaper in the near future. This game is very long, the modes can take you hours to get through them, Xtreme Mode is never ending, so you can keep going and going which means the game... Read review

Advantages: An excellent storyline
Disadvantages: Mutants occasionally seem a little too much like CGI

...I AM LEGEND is a new adaptation of the novel by Richard Matheson, which was first published in 1954. The novel tells the story of the last man alive on Earth in a future Los Angeles where the world is filled with vampires. The novel has been turned into 2 films before, the first being THE LAST MAN ON EARTH (starring Vincent Price, in 1964), and the second being THE OMEGA MAN (starring Charlton Heston, in 1971). The new version of the film stars Will Smith and is directed by Francis Lawrence. The storyline deviates from the novel in a great many ways, including the fact that here the vampires have become mutants, thanks to a virus which has spread throughout the world. Smith plays Robert Neville, a government scientist who was charged with finding a cure for the virus. Somehow he is immune from the disease and so is the last remaining... Read review

Advantages: Good film
Disadvantages: An end to the mystery

...I love Star Wars and have done since being a small boy. My older brother introduced me to it when he used to watch it all the time on video. We both had the toys,games and films to watch and lived on a diet of Star Wars. What we could never understand was why it started at episode 4. Maybe it was a clever bit of future marketing by George Lucas. Whatever it was, It launched a great story that is only now coming into fruition. The Phantom menace and the 2 films to follow will complete a jigsaw for many people. The very start of the legend, the Phantom menace is now nearly 2 years old. It hit our screens with all of the vigour that we could expect of a Lucas Film. It tells the story of how a galaxy is falling further into dispute within warring factions. How regal parties are being forced from their seats of power by senators. It also... Read review

...Is this a Valentine? Maybe ~ maybe not. It is a message of love, and the person to whom it's addressed will understand it. There are many kinds of love, and all are blessings, but some blessings are mixed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Walk the quiet untrodden ways Your frantic mind in silence bathe Seek solitude in the land’s own embrace Climb up to the snows of another earth Where future past and present merge And every sight and sound feels like the first Seek clarity in crystal waters fall On pinescent winds hear the wild woods call Step bravely into legends’ thrall With eagle feather dust your dreams Wash your hopes in peat-rust streams Love is never as simple as it seems On misted mountains where beauty’s wraiths Caress the soul, tempt the fates Wander, wonder, for a while be free Walk the hills again, again walk...

Advantages: Hints at some interesting ideas
Disadvantages: But never quite gets around to them

...I usually choose to see films based on trailers and reviews and it's a rare occasion I'm enthused about a film well before the release date. "I Am Legend" was a rare diversion from this theme, as I read an interview with Will Smith some three weeks before the film was due out and liked the idea of it from the start. "I Am Legend" is a remake of the 1970s film "The Omega Man", which I must admit I have never seen; nor have I read the original book, which by all accounts has more depth. But what encouraged me further since that interview is that my flatmate compared it to the more recent "28 Days Later", which made me want to see it even more, as I am a fan of that film. Set not too far into the future, it appears that a cure for cancer was developed in 2009. Unfortunately, this appears to have been a virus which killed off pretty much... Read review

Advantages: a good cartoon
Disadvantages: no disadvantages

...Inspired by an ancient Chinese legend, with Mulan's cartoon, Walt Disney seems to put an end to the tales which don't have sense anymore today! Mulan offers us a new vision of the woman: woman can fight as men they can have the power they contribute to the history ! Great ! It's good! You can let your children become soaked with this culture without fear for their future faiths! In china (antique hunting), the honor is one of the basic values in the life of a person, a family. It's on this subject that thus begins this great adventure! Mulan is a beautiful young lady who gets ready for her future role, (she have to be married), when her country is suddenly invaded by Hums. People are called to go to the war. The father of Mulan also. But Mulan knows that her old father won't return alive if it leaves to fight. To save... Read review
