A Narrow View of Mr. Morrissey (
User
Rating
: 20/50
)
Although the subject of this book is quite fascinating, Saint Morrissey is--simply put--monotonous. The authors thesis relies upon the condition that Morrissey is a homosexual. This hackneyed position merely perpetuates the theory that everything that Mr. Morrissey generates reflects his struggle wi..

The Red Balloon |
The late French filmmaker Albert Lamorisse made this classic, 1956 short work about a lonely little Parisian boy (Pascal Lamorisse) befriended by a large red balloon, which seems to have a will of its own. As with his preceding short, 1952s White Mane, Lamorisse took home a grand prize from the Cannes Film Festival for The Red Balloon, and the latter film also won an Academy Award. There have been some stimulating pieces of film criticism (some pro, some con) written about the aesthetics of this little movie over the years, but theres no question it makes for a touching, allegorical piece always certain to prompt conversations among viewers of any age. --Tom Keogh .. |

Official Final Fantasy VII Strategy Guide |
This Squaresoft-sanctioned book on one of the most highly anticipated console games ever does not disappoint. Those who have managed to obtain a copy of the game (descriptions of rioting and fighting upon the retail release of Final Fantasy IIV sound like sheer hyperbole, but probably arent) will find plenty of helpful clues, maps, and general game play advice. Those less fortunate can at least take solace in--or further whet their appetites with--the hundreds of beautiful glossy screen shots that fill each chapter... |

A Very Mediocre Guide to a game like FFVII (
User
Rating
: 20/50
)
In a game of huge secrets and side quests, this guidebook lacks in many many areas. The walkthrough is only good if you do not want to find everything the game has to offer. The only way you will get everything in the game is if you read the book first and then play the game, which should not be the..

Yep, finally WarCraft 3 is here, long time since 96 is it not? A lot has been written and spoken of this game, yet most of those revolutinary features have not seen the light. So how do I dare give this game 5 stars? First, though its true that war 3 is not the RPG/RTS hybrid Blizzard promised almos..
