Great Artists of the Century - 25 Launch Releases

Buck Rogers In the 25th Century DVD boxset

Advantages: Nostalgia, oh lord watching this show brings back so many memories!
Disadvantages: Avoid the region 2 set - go for the Region 1 set, its the complete series!

for those who don't know, this series dates back to the 70's when sci-fi involved women in skin tight lycra (Wilma Deering hubba hubba!), hi tech was lots of blinking flashing lights and futuristic sets meant lots of plastic furniture! Glen A Larson was at this time a god for sci fi nuts, coming off the far far far superior Battlestar Galactica, he tones everything down a little (too much?) for the kiddies in Buck Rogers (although the latter half of Battlestar got also too kiddie like!). But you all know the story of Buck Rogers being frozen and then awoken in the 25th century, so I will avoid the recap! If you are expecting loads of extras, included in the excellent Battlestar Galactica boxset - you will be disappointed with this set, I was! No extras to speak of. Just the episodes and a little booklet. A real shame, as I still believe ...

Fiesta Zetec 1.25 - Great car for the price!

Advantages: Many - Looks good, drives well, great extras, very comfortable
Disadvantages: Honestly none come to mind!

style Fiesta is the internal space. It is now much more comfertable inside even if you want to carry more than one passenger. The back of the car is not so tight for space and by moving the seat release to the top of the front seats it is now very easy to get passengers in and out of the rear of the car. There is also a surprising amount of boot space considering it is a hatchback and you can fit a substanstial amount in the boot. The Bumpers are body coloured and if you have the black model liek mine this finishes it off perfectly. Many Fiesta\'s including this one now come with Alloy wheels as standard and although they are a nightmare to clean they look amazing when they are clean and add much needed style where Ford have in the past used cheap looking wheel trims. As for the 1.25 engine, I originally went to buy the 1.4 version ...

Review of Ford Fiesta 1.25

NO PROBLEMS WITH MATT'S "LAUNCH"... :)

Advantages: funny, sweet, good performances (particularly Zooey Deschanel)
Disadvantages: a little cheesy at times, panned by critics

I'd heard quite a few reviews label "Failure To Launch" a bit of a dud, but it's a film I've always been interested in watching anyway! So I recently made the decision to buy it. For one thing, I could get it cheap on play.com. Secondly, I liked the idea of the film and - um, hello! - the bee-yootiful Matthew McM was in it. And thirdly, as you probably know about me by now, I rarely let bad film reviews put me off - in fact, I often take them as encouragement! To be honest, I wasn't too sure what to expect from this, mainly based on the reviews it had received. However, I tried to go into watching it with an open mind and not let any negativity bias me one way or the other. The story centres around Tripp, a thirty five year old man who is successful, handsome and charismatic. His main flaw is that he still lives with his parents ...
