I just realized we haven't done one of these in a looooong time. Here's Jammrock's movie/anime news:
Movies
Shrek - By far THE funniest movie I have seen in a looooong time. I literally almost fell out of my seat I was laughing so hard. The animation is second to NOTHING (until the Final Fantasy movie comes out at least) and the comedy is great. It gets 5 of 5 laughing Jammrocks.
The Mummy Returns - Story! We don't need no stink'n story! This movie is full of action, special effects, action, special effects and more action. There are, literally, less then 50 spoken lines in the entire movie. Action, action, action, non-stop. 3.5 of 5 action Jammrocks.
Anime Complete or soon to be completed series or movies on DVD.
Trigun - The last DVD comes out next week. This is a quasi-modern old western anime with super human gunslingers...mostly. It's a really good series with a great story, good animation and is all around fun to watch. 4.5 of 5 animated Jammrocks.
Dual Trouble Adventures - A short, yet very funny anime by the same people that made Tenchi Muyo and El Hazard (both really good series, too). It's a spoof of Neon Genesis Evangelion and other anime's. It very funny and very well done. It brings a whole new meaning to the words, "shock absorbers." 4 of 5 animated Jammrock's.
Neon Genesis Evangelion - It has been discussed several times on the forums. The last DVD for the TV series is out (#7). The movie and remade last 3 episodes come out 30 October. It's wierd, it's messed up, it's anime. 4.5 of 5 animated Jammrocks.
Other News
Lord of the Rings - A new trailer is due out on the web this Friday. Rumors also have it that the new trailer will be played before the US release of Pearl Harbor. "Americans, they're always late for wars."
Animated movies make a comback! - There are at least 4 major animated movies being released this year. The hilarious comedy, Shrek and the video game based Final Fantasy the Movie, are computer animated masterpieces that are due out this summer. Disney is releasing the very aniticipated H.P. Lovecraftian hand drawn w/ computer assit, Atlantis. In November the now famous Pixar will release Monsters, Inc. The last of the big computer animated movies.
That just about covers the Jammrock report. Feel free to post your own reviews and thoughts. Until next time...
