Canadian Queens of Drama

Advantages: An exciting mash-up mix of musical genres, Neurosonic is a highly talented band
Disadvantages: Not an album most will appreciate, the music is too diverse to allow for that

...music is my first choice of genre when it comes to music, I certainly love what it is that Neurosonic is doing however as the music here is absolutely sensational. This is such an innovative début album from the Canadian industrial outfit that is Neurosonic, never does the music here fail to impress and always in fact this 'Drama Queen' album has plenty to offer. The reason the music is so effective is because this band does not pure and simply stick to the genre of industrial, elements of other musical genres are brought into the mix here in order to provide for an incredibly full and well rounded sound. When listening to this album it is made very clear that Neurosonic is a band with a strong grounding in the techno/dance genre. The crossover between rock and dance here is phenomenal, the music possesses a great energy and never is...

2001: A Space Odyssey review

Advantages: Fascinating, thought-provoking, fantastic use of music
Disadvantages: None

...2001: A Space Odyssey is a sci-fi film made in 1968, directed by Stanley Kubrick and written by Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke. One of the recurring themes in this film is evolution. The first 30 mins or so have no dialogue at all, and focus on a very distant point in our past, when a group of herbivore apes are attacked, and one is killed, by a leopard. They are also driven from their water hole by another tribe, so they sleep in a rock crater overnight. When they wake up, they notice that a huge black monolith has appeared in front of them. They are very curious as to what this is, and one of them touches it. Not long after, this particular ape remembers the monolith and realises he can use a bone as a weapon to defend himself. So they go back and kill the tribe that took over their water hole and, jubilant, the aforementioned ape...

High Speed DRAMA and Confusion at Spa 2001

Advantages: exciting varied track, the ultimate ‘drivers’ circuit - many chances of over taking, location amidst lush forest
Disadvantages: none really..(often wet..?)

...This is it, the World’s most exciting racing venue Spa Forenchamps, every drivers dream.. In the last race at Budapest we saw the 2001 Championship Title won for the 4th time by Michael Schumacher. Just a couple of weeks later all the drivers and teams were lined up to experience yet another Grand Prix at one of the most spectacular racing circuits in the World..Spa Francorchamps in Belgium. This opinion will be spilt into 2 parts once again with firstly some details about the circuit and secondly an analysis of the historic and highly dramatic Race that took place in September 2001, which certainly moved me immensely……. 1) The Circuit ~ Unlike Hungary’, Spa Francorchamps is an amazing drivers circuit that has several places where over taking manoeuvres are possible. It is also the longest circuit in F...

2001 Maniacs - Slightly misses the mark

Advantages: Great gore scenes, acting is so bad its laughable
Disadvantages: Acting, acting and uh.... acting!

...c1985 Dir. Tim Sullivan A remake of legendary gore-meister Hershell Gordon-Lewis? 2000 Maniacs, 2001 Maniacs goes for the ?so bad its good? style of horror but slightly misses the mark. Three college slackers, Anderson, Corey and Nelson are on their way to Spring Break in Florida when an unexpected detour takes them into the small, off the map town of Pleasant Valley, South Carolina. They are joined by 3 drifters; Joey, Kat and Ricky, and biker couple Malcolm and Leah, who have all also arrived in the small town as a result of the road detour. They are all welcomed as guests of honour for the town?s annual ?Guts and Glory Festival?, led by the sinister Mayor Buckman (Robert ?Freddy? Englund).

Review of 2001 Maniacs (DVD)

This teenage drama queen confesses all to review another...

Advantages: Great story line, good music.
Disadvantages: None.

...Confessions of a teenage drama queen was created in 2004 is an american comedy. Starring Lindsay Lohan playing a 15 year old attention seaking teenager who drags other into her devised plan to see the band of her dreams and to tell many lies and deciete friends in the process. This film is very comedic and is along the same lines as 'Parent Trap' however with some more catchy songs. This also stars Megan Fox who plays the classroom bitchy bully and is gobsmacked when Lohan turns out to be the person that she is seen assosiating with. This film is perfect for young teenagers who love happy music and dancing around the room singing. You will definately singing the songs in the film for hours yet to come......

2001 - A Space Oddity

Advantages: Great introduction and cinematography
Disadvantages: the story does not link or explain itself

...Few would deny the impact of 2001 - A Space Odyssey or the ingenuity of Arthur C. Clarke, but I believe that this story really lacks any fluidity and detail in its concepts. Also one of the main plots of the story is not fully explored, but it is hardly Stanely Kubrick's direction which is at fault. This is a story charting man's progress to the current pinnacle of achievement - SPACE TRAVEL and ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. While the introduction of the development of early ape-man's use of tools (which is very impressive - for a 1960s film I was surprised how excellent the gorilla costumes were it did not look fake at all) Anyway the film then abruptly enters the 21st century on board a space ship. Nothing is particularly missing, but as the story continues the story does not explain certain events or their significance it merely...

Review of 2001 - A Space Odyssey (DVD)

What's all the drama about?!

Advantages: Good chance to see old programmes
Disadvantages: Available digital only, and only at certain times

...Wisdom film on. "On the Beat" or anything with Norman Wisdom is not my cup of tea but this sort of programming might appeal to someone. "Sykes" and "Dick Emery" are currently being repeated as well as "Murphy's Law". The excellent "Upstairs Downstairs" is on as well as its spin-off "Thomas and Sarah". Part one of a docu-drama about the hunt for Peter Sutcliffe was also on. SUNDAY: Similar to Saturdays except it was a different Norman Wisdom film and there were different episodes of "Sykes" and "Dick Emery". Part two of the Ripper docu-drama was also on. A Ewan McGregor drama "Scarlet and Black" was on at the late time of 11.20pm. MONDAY: "Last of the Summer Wine", "Bread", "Terry and June", "Upstairs Downstairs", "All Creatures Great and Small", "Band of Gold" and "Two Thousand Acres of Sky" were on at various times. This...

FIFA 2001

Advantages: Graphics
Disadvantages: Commentary

...Transcript of conversation between me and Phil: Me: Got any good games you've finished with? Phil: How about FIFA 2001? Me: Sounds good Phil: Its yours for £15. Me: I'll give you £5 Phil: Oh, take it, its crap anyway. Me: Oh. OK! 2 weeks later the game is in my claws, in its lovely new style box. I'm pretty impressed with the back, it really talks it up.....can't wait. having played FIFA'99 fairly extensively, its time for a new challenge. Gameplay OK, its different to 99. Passing doesn't work as well, its slower and stuff gets intercepted. Thats good. Shooting is better, instead of 99s 'press-and-it shoots' you can choose how hard. And the heading feature is better. Phew. But, as always, there is a foolproof way to score......cross it in, press D twice and it overhead kicks it in every time. The TV camera style is...
