5.0 out of 5 stars Reiterating the already stated, July 11 2004
I just wanted to add that this series is awe-inspiring and shockingly realistic for the genre of fantasy. The characters are given depth and perspective through different viewpoints, leaving the reader with mixed feelings on whether they are "good" or not, and whether they should be pitied or condemned. These books have given me many sleepless nights because I was so engrossed in the Song of Ice and Fire, and when I finally had to put down the book I was kept up the rest of the night worrying about my favorite characters' fate. I have fallen in love with several characters and even though I have finished all three (and wait impatiently for the forth) I cannot seem to get the story from my mind and am drawn back to reread it again and again. These books are rewarding, exciting, and allow you to be swept away into a place that is not only magical in a literal sense, but in that it captures your soul.

4.0 out of 5 stars SMB forever, May 21 2004
I know that most people dislike video game movies, especially OLD video game movies, but SMB is just too much fun to pass up. All the characters are hilarious and the special effects are pretty good for such an old movie. The continuity in the plot is well-done as well, its not just a bunch of special effects and gun-shots.
I remember watching this movie for the first time when I was seven or eight and loving it. When I saw it on DVD years later I knew I had to buy it, and I STILL laugh the whole time. For someone who grew up through the game revoltion (I still have an original Nintendo system) this movie is as nostaglic as it is funny. I really recommend it.
