Laptop Charger Beeping

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 6 Nov 10

I was working on my laptop when I noticed that the laptop was not charging when it was clearly plugged in. This was usual as the connection was loose and all I had to do was adjust it to get it charging. But now, nothing is...

Legend of the Titanic: The Animated Film

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 27 Oct 10

This is the story of one of the world greatest disaster. The movie contains love at first sight, talking animals, talking dolphins, wait no, talking, flying dolphins, thankfully no rapping dog, and an octopus with a nose. It...

Carrie the Musical: Based on the Stephen King horror book

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 22 Oct 10

Yes, based on the book and the old movie, to answer your first question. It opened in 1988 at the Stanford production and then was cruxified by critics and audiences, and then transported to Broadway (you would think they would...

Titanic: The Animated Musical

Maus by Art Spiegelman

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 17 Oct 10

I really recommend it. Before you stereotype comics and graphic novels as "cartoonish" and "funny" and "heroic," read it. The book is about a Holocaust survivor. But that's one of the sad part, not the interesting part. This...

Chris Colfer

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 17 Oct 10

Whether you despise or love his manipulative, yet sympatheic character Kurt, you cannot deny that not only does Chris Colfer have an amazing, trained range, but a splendid actor. When you are watching him in "Kurt's Turn" you...

The Fiddler On the Roof

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 16 Oct 10

This is one of my favorite musicals films. Topol as Tevye is one of the best performances in musical history. As the original Tevye of the London production (later reprising it in the 1983 Broadway revival) he came back for a...

Lilo and Stitch

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 16 Oct 10

It is sad that this movie suffered at box office. This is clearly one of Disney's best. It's all originality, not adaptated from anything. It's heartwarming, you cry, laugh... And the creators went on to make How To Train...

Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 21 Sep 10

Anyone watched it? Although it disneyfied Victor Hugo's work, it keeps to the spirit Hugo wanted to express: lustful religious leader, inner beauty, and what Christianity truly is. I am in a minority who believes it deserved a...

Phineas and Ferb

AliaKane @AliaKane (97) • United States 20 Sep 10

I am suprised there is no discussion on this yet. This Disney show was created by Jeff Marsh and Dan Povermiere, a former writer of Family Guy (which actually resulted in Seth MacFarlane guest-starring in Phineas and Ferb, yes,...

I am a fan of the Nostalgia Critic. His comedic timing and over-the-top rage over movies (that betrayed his children) are golden. My favorite of the reviews are Bio-Dome, Garbage Pail Kids, The Room, etc. Those were the videos...
