Customer Review: great backstory
These three books provide a really interesting back-story to Halo games. It really helps you appreciate the games all the more.
Customer Review: Captivating
Any anticipation of what this series offers should be thrown out the window. This group offers so much more than the games ever could. So many attachments to characters are developed throughout the series only to to be lost to a seemingly unwinable war. It would very much stand alone as a saga without ever having played the games in the sci-fi world, for young and old alike.

Customer Review: Sorry I spent my money
I was hoping for a real review. The book seems to compare the top 10 vitamin brand by brochure. I didn't like it!
Customer Review: an excellent guide for consumer
This is an excellent guide for the consumers to choose quality supplements. It gives ratings (1 to 5 stars) to more than 1500 multivitamins in North America. Supplements from Kroger, Walgrees and costco, etc get a very low score of their products. I'm suprised. I highly recommend this book to someone who is taking supplements or considering taking supplements.
Here Come the ABCs [CD/DVD Combo]
Here Come the ABCs [CD/DVD Combo]
No stranger to the realm of children's records, They Might Be Giants have seen success with their CD No! and the book-and-CD combo Bed, Bed, Bed. Their latest CD, Here Come the ABCs, offers up 25 alphabetically themed songs. However, as is their charming way, the two Johns (Flansburgh and Linnell), use the letters as merely the connective tissue, allowing them to pursuit intriguing flights of fancy that consider everything from the relative power of letters and sounds to animal hijinks. Just as they've always done, there are wistful ballads and high octane rockers. TMBG have always been a family-friendly band, and this disc works just fine for adult fans, who can rightfully consider this simply their newest release. --David Greenberger
Customer Review: Great fun for everyone!
What a great, fun album! Our 23 month old has been listening to it for about 6 months now, and loves to speak along to it. Different songs are favorites at different times. My husband and I think it is catchy and fun for us, too. If your toddler is going to demand songs be repeated "one more time" as our does, these are songs you can listen to, too, "one more time" ad infinitum (almost). You even learn to sing the alphabet backward!
Customer Review: Great!
Here's another great hit by They Might Be Giants. Wonderful music and I loved the CD/DVD music combo. I don't think you can go wrong with this musical group for children.
Justice League - The New Frontier (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Justice League - The New Frontier (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Inspired by the best-selling graphic novel by Darwyn Cooke and produced by the multiple Emmy® award winning animation legend, Bruce Timm, The New Frontier is the epic tale of the founding of the Justice League. Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are all here of course, and so are Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter and Flash - whose incredible origins will be told for the very first time. Strangers at first, these very different heroes must overcome fear and suspicion to forge an alliance against a monster so formidable, even the mighty Superman can not stop it. If they fail, our entire planet will be “cleansed†of humanity.
Customer Review: Terrible Convoluted Storyline - Poor Production
Anyone who is giving this a great review really does not know the comics or charicters very well. More importantly, they do not know what makes for great story-telling because this is a TERRIBLE story.
My credentials: Comicbook collector for 30 years. I own over 100,000 and have favored the DC characters since I was a child. I consider myself to be a knowledgable fan and expert.
The artwork in this film was not that great.....but that is ok. The voice acting was pretty good. The story line, plot development, and character backgrounds/definitions were probably the WORST of any animated movie I have ever seen.
Almost every scene had nothing to do with the next one or any other one for that matter. Almost every scene had nothing to do with how the story would progress or eventually resolve. Examples:
1: The first scene with Superman and Wonder Woman had nothing to do with any other point in the movie where they interacted with each other.
2: The story and development of J'onn Jonzz, The Martian Manhunter (which was a majority of the film) had nothing to do with anything. The story could have been told with the omission of ALL his scenes.
3: ALL the scenes of interaction between Batman and J'onn were irrelevant to the unanticipated role that Batman would play at the end. Eliminate all those scenes and the storyline would have been the same.
4: The main "bad guy" has been around for millions of years, then basically pops up out of nowhere (in terms of human history) and is then defeated in what I consider to be extremely easy fashion.
5: Said bad guy takes out Superman like he's a ragdoll but can't do the same with the Flash, or the humans that are attacking it?
I could list many more but I think you get my point. Bottom line; All this is is a collection of non-related scenes leading up to a lame conclusion. I am so very disappointed in Bruce Timm (normally an absolute genius), Darwyn Cooke, and especially Dan Didio and DC Comics for allowing this rubbish to be distributed.
As a DC fanatic, I cant help but notice the quality stuff being put out by Marvel. (Iron Man, Dr. Strange, and other animation). Come on DC.....you can be great again.
Customer Review: Not for kids
Great story, fairly graphic. Not for children under 13. Parents, I strongly urge you to PRE-view animated films before showing to children.
This is probably the best animated direct to DVD film Bruce Tim has done yet. Among other more super powered issues it touches on the witch-hunt politics of the McCarthy era.

Planet Earth - The Complete BBC Series [Blu-ray]
With an unprecedented production budget of $25 million, and from the makers of Blue Planet: Seas of Life, comes the epic story of life on Earth. Five years in production, over 2,000 days in the field, using 40 cameramen filming across 200 locations, shot entirely in high definition, this is the ultimate portrait of our planet. A stunning television experience that captures rare action, impossible locations and intimate moments with our planet's best-loved, wildest and most elusive creatures. From the highest mountains to the deepest rivers, this blockbuster series takes you on an unforgettable journey through the daily struggle for survival in Earth's most extreme habitats. Planet Earth takes you to places you have never seen before, to experience sights and sounds you may never experience anywhere else.
Customer Review: Planet Earth - Best Nature Series Ever
Planet Earth, the series, is without doubt, the finest nature film ever made. All of their shots are breath-taking, with some appearing to be almost impossible to make. How they were able to capture so much wild-life, and rare wild-life at that, on film is both a wonder and a testament to the dedication the producers and film makers brought to the project.
And if you own a Blue Ray Disc Player, this is one film (there are four discs) that is simply a must for your collection. In fact, such is the realism and dynamic impact, I mounted my digital camera on a stand and took still frame shots of some of the images directly off my new 52" LCD TV screen. At 1080p, I've never seen a nature film that comes anywhere close to matching the grandeur and beauty that this series offers. The photography is so good, one might mistake it for an art film.
This is a must-have.
Customer Review: Planet Earth

Customer Review: MacBook Pro
The MacBook Pro is great, looks great and works well. The only thing is the new operating system wasn't loaded to the laptop but the disk was included. Other than that, everything is great. Love it.
Customer Review: MacBook Pro
I bought this computer one month ago and the price has dropped $305! I bought an Apple for its reputation as a reliable system. This one crashes regularly, especially when I attempt to use the help function. Also, it does not pick up wireless signals unless they are very, very strong. My six-year old Toshiba works better than this machine. Definitely not worth the premium paid.

Customer Review: MacBook Pro
The MacBook Pro is great, looks great and works well. The only thing is the new operating system wasn't loaded to the laptop but the disk was included. Other than that, everything is great. Love it.
Customer Review: MacBook Pro
I bought this computer one month ago and the price has dropped $305! I bought an Apple for its reputation as a reliable system. This one crashes regularly, especially when I attempt to use the help function. Also, it does not pick up wireless signals unless they are very, very strong. My six-year old Toshiba works better than this machine. Definitely not worth the premium paid.
