Advantages: Fun, kids will enjoy, some good comic moments Disadvantages: Not to the usual Disney standards, weak storyline
I had seen a trailer for ?Bedtime Stories? a Disney film starring Adam Sandler and thought it looked fun so had added it to my rental list.
Adam Sandler plays the lead role of the character Skeeter Bronson who is handyman at a big hotel. The hotel was once owned by his dad and although Skeeter lives there the hotel is now run and owned by the slightly hypochondriac Barry Nottingham. Skeeter suddenly finds himself having to take some responsibility when his sister asks him to look after his young niece and nephew for a week whilst she is away.
Each night Skeeter tells them a bedtime story which they love and they each add their own thoughts about what should happen in the adventure story. Skeeter discovers that parts of the bedtime story come true the following day and this has amazing consequences for his life. Can he ...
my alarm clock had. What was unusual was that it normally only went off from Monday to Friday and that I always switched it off for the weekend. This one lapse of memory probably saved my life.
WEIRD FACTS OR COINCIDENCE
These are all true things that have happened to me. Lots of coincidence but certainly in the case of my last story I had a very narrow escape and shouldn’t really be here to tell the tale. I sway between life being what you make it, but then some things are meant to be, weird or not. ...
Advantages: Great characters, an excellent story arc, fantastic season finale Disadvantages: A couple of bad episodes
mysterious is going on down in the cellar. Another mediocre episode, but it's pretty entertaining.
Episode Six: Halloween
In one of my favourite episodes in the season, evil Ethan Rayne comes to town and turns everyone into their Halloween costumes. When Buffy becomes a helpless eighteenth century maiden - who'll be there to save the day? Highly entertaining episode that also plants the seeds for a later story arc?
Episode Seven: Lie to Me
I like the aspect of this episode that shows that other people apart from Buffy and her friends are aware that things aren't quite right in Sunnydale? A cult that idolises vampires comes to town, hoping that Spike and his gang will turn them into vamps. Can Buffy save the day?
Episode Eight: The Dark Age
Ethan Rayne shows up again, this time to reveal dark secrets about Giles' past. A very ...

Album Notes
While Buffy Sainte-Marie was never much of a commercial juggernaut in the United States (even at the height of the Folk Revival), this comeback album--her first record in 15 years--undeservedly disappeared from the market on arrival in 1992. Comparable to another singer-songwriter comeback of 1992, Leonard Cohen's THE FUTURE, COINCIDENCE & LIKELY STORIES finds another ex-folkie in step with the digitalia of the modern age. Draped by synth swells and some electronic beats (and only the occasional acoustic guitar), Buffy Sainte-Marie delivers a strong cycle with a defiant message of Native American injustice. Standout track "Starwalker" echoes her '60s classic "He's A Keeper of the Fire," while "Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee" rips corporate pollution and defends Leonard Peltier over rifling guitar riffs. Her tremoloing voice--one of the most under-appreciated instruments in '60s folkdom--sounds in peak form here expressing tenderness, vivacity, and outrage with equal, resonating power.
Album Reviews
Q (5/92, p.84) - 3 Stars - Good - "..fans won't be disappointed.."
Spin (5/92, p.76) - Highly Recommended - "..[this release] marks the welcome return of an authentic angry voice...her righteous fury delivers the big thrills.." Musician (8/25, p.88) - "..not since Tina Turner has a nearly forgotten veteran reinvented herself to such stunning effect...Saint-Marie has somehow discovered a sound that's leaner, scarier and more spontaneous than anything to which she's previously put her name.." New York Times (9/11/92, p.C24) - "..a devastating litany of continuing corporate and governmental injury to indians. The outrage is bolstered by lean, catchy folk-pop melodies.." Rolling Stone (11/26/92, p.74) - 3 Stars - Good - "..a winning comeback...11 songs that have deep thematic resonance and that are among her most appealing work.."
