This is the review I did for the copy of Five Star Stories on DVD i got from ebay. I hope to do a full review soon.
"A diamond in a rough package, Five Star Story on DVD
As I heard before, this film is beautifully animated with a story that feel so familiar but told it a new way.
Truly an anime that does not suck. In the 60-ish minutes of this film, I feel I watched a better version of the film DUNE(1984) in building the universe that the characters live in.
Description for this DVD stated that it was not a bootleg but it doesn't look like it to me with the packaging but the quality is excellent in picture and sound with an english menu, three subtitles, and a limited amount of extras as a bonus.
This film is a must watch despite the packaging as it has some cool looking mecha, interesting characters to care about, and a story that you will wish was continued in anime form."

Sonic review
Here's a one sentence review of Adventures Of Sonic The Hedgehog cartoon I wrote for a post on the ConTV Facebook page.
With crazy stories and crazier art, this Sonic The Hedgehog cartoon may not be one of the best but it still has the heart of the Sega mascot while being very Looney Tunes like.

This is no Gundam, kid. It's not even a Zaku.
Aldnoah.Zero review
Just finished Aldnoah.zero. Feeling major let downs. The first 12 episodes only took me about 2 days to watch. The other 12 took about 7 months. Shows how I felt about it. I kept hearing that is was as close to Gundam that wasn't Gundam. It got close at some points but it sure wasn't a Gundam type anime in the end.
1 The main characters were bland
2 the world this anime took place in was some thing I wanted to explore but it didn't show off any of it besides the broken moon that just looked the same every time it was shown
3 technology was explained some to make it almost believable at first but then just hand waves away all the impossible things it does later in the series
4 besides a few Earth mechas in the beginning no mecha was shown off to it's full existent and each fight was a monster of the week instead of showing advances in tactics and technology
5 lots of side characters had lives of their own and could have been like able but most to all side stories they had were left half finished or just untouched
6 little talking robot eye buddy really!!!!!??????
7 Inaho is the biggest Gary Stu EVER! No one could do anything without his okay and hand holding
8 good guys in any Gundam lost from time to time but the "good guys" here just keep pulling out win after win from start to end
This show wanted to be an opera but it didn't have character and the drama to go with it.
The animation was nice but this is one anime I will not speak fondly of.

My video status
With October here and Halloween right around the corner I'm going to put the kaiju size Godzilla video I've been working on for a while on hold. Time to crank up and out the work for my HALLOWEEN MOVIE. Man, this is going to be big for me. Weekly comic book videos will be delayed due to con.
