Excellent!, Mar 10 2013
Besides being fabulous eye candy, the story is straight out of the modern playbook; corporate colonialism with the full blessing of imperial authority treating indigenous as second class and therefore worthy only of contempt and destruction in the name of resource extraction. I do wish that Cameron had spent more than ten seconds naming the resource in question. Unobtainium? Really? Why didn't you just call it Plot Device or Spice? :P Anyway, well done. The disc itself is well done; nary a gltich. Packaging is standard; the discs are well protected. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who loves well told, politically motivated message movies.

Taut, strong story., Dec 28 2012
this was a tragedy in the familiar mode; a strong yet fatally flawed warrior, a ronin really, regains her honour and saves the day. Good stuff!

Best Sci-Fi series ever, with a couple of surprises in the box, Nov 28 2012
I was surprised to find both The Plan and Razor included in this boxed set. I would have said "pleasantly surprised" except that there was no indication that either of these were in this box, so I went ahead and ordered them seperately! :P Anyway, well organized, compact... well done.

Best ZZ Top album in 30 years, Sep 20 2012
Rick Rubin deserves to have his face on a large rock somewhere for distilling the essence of so many great American musical artists. No exception here; I haven't enjoyed a ZZ Top album this much since I was a teenager! Hot DAMN and other things!

Best printer I've ever owned!, Sep 20 2012
Brother printers enjoy a richly deserved reputation for quality; they build robust machines that create good images. Even more impressive to me is their clearly written, accurate documentation and ease of set-up; took minutes and the printer was ready to roll. All this in a very reasonably priced package. Splendid! I heartily recommend this product to anyone, whether for a small business or for personal use. My printer arrived on time, well protected; kudos Amazon!

Useful book, if you're really into the game., Jun 3 2012
For those who find the new Diablo enjoyable this book is a treasure trove of useful information, at least as far as playing through Normal level. The only complaint I have is that the guide doesn't take you through the game pay at higher levels. Included are tips on playstyle for each character type, an exhaustive beastiary and loads of info on crafting, gear adn the new marketplace. As with all Diablo-related products that I've seen, the artwork is excellent.

incredible detail!, April 26 2012
This book represents everything that's best about the Star Wars universe: fantastic design, loving attention to detail, inspirationally imaginative. Whether you are old enough to remember the original release or you're just discovering Star Wars, if you love sci-fi and fantasy this book will appeal.

Excellent!, Feb 1 2012
What a great collection! If you're a real fan of the franchise (and why would you be reading this otherwise?) this collection is a must. The re-mastered films look amazing and Alien3 is finally watchable, even enjoyable! "Ressurection" remains an interesting failure but at least it looks great. The extra material, for people like me who love that stuff, is well worth a look.

Works well, Feb 1 2012
Just recently used this gear in -25C weather with a windchill of -38C and never felt a thing. I would have given this mask a 5 but for the little foam insert that keeps the rubber part of the facemask away from your skin; it's not designed to stay put and it sure doesn't. I found myself having to adjust that little foam bit quite often. A velcro fastener for it would work well and should be considered.

works ok, Feb 1 2012
It keeps the wind out, but it does very little to keep the fog off your glasses, which was the most important thing for me. If you don't wear glasses, these are a good buy.
