Iron Maiden: Rock in Rio (2002)
Best Metal Band Ever
you are correct Barry (manson21), the sound does go up and down, so it is not just you who has noticed this!!! The best concert i have ever seen on DVD, i wish i was there in person to get the real, full experience (one of the DVD extras being able to choose what quality sound you wish to hear the concert in, such as Dolby 5.1 surround etc. so all is not lost ;)). The passion each member puts into each of the 19 songs is unreal, especially Dickinson, the lead vocalist, he is never static for one moment!. If you ignore the brief ups and downs in sound,this is definitely worth a 10/10 in my opinion.
BRAZIL, ROCK IN RIO... GOODNIGHT!!!
Willow (1988)
The FINEST EVER Howard film!
A true masterpiece, it does and has everything that a superb fantasy genre film should, Immaculate special effects to create certain fantasy elements,Fight/magic sequences, Romance, Creatures great and small, Contrasting, environments, Zero-to-hero protagonist. Containing Stars Warrick Davis as Willow in his first "face" appearance in a film, (his debut being an Ewok in Executive Producer George Lucas' film 'Star Wars Episode 6 - Return of the Jedi'). Val Kilmer as Mad Martigan, the acclaimed great swordsman, (no other actor could of played the part in my opinion) who later went on to be Batman in the film of the same name. For anyone who likes 'Star War' films, Ronnie Baker,(who was R2D2) makes a cameo appearance as a band member in Willow's village at one of their festivals. Although 'Cocoon'and 'Cocoon 2: The Return' were great Howard films, 'Willow'is head and shoulders above both! A great film for all ages, but especially families.
5/5, 10/10, thumbs up, 100% brilliantly created fantasy film!
