(Good Napkins for Everyday) 『These lunch napkins are handy for lunch boxes and everyday use at home. They are a step-up from grabbing a paper towel for daily family table service. In addition, the paper towel roll will last longer not using them for napkins all the time. These napkins are economical and a worthy purchase. The quality is ok for family, but go with a more expensive choice for something other than everyday fare.』
(Just as good as other brands.) 『We use them at dinner time to wipe our hands and faces and they work just fine. No fancy pictures just a napkin that I don't feel as guilty using.』

My DD watches this one every day and dances just like a little princess ballerina lol! I'm tempting to buy a spare in case something happens to ours!』
(Really Impressed with this dvd!) 『This is the best dvd with Sam thus far,in my opinion.The songs are catchy and get in your head(Sing a Song of Sixpence", "Over In The Meadow")."Turkey in the Straw" is fun with the turkey costume on Jeff,and comical dance moves.Sam's vocals are amazing,most notably in "Black Velvet Band",,"Rock a Bye Baby"(that's his wife Lyn he's dancing with),and "Over in the Meadow".The costumes are elaborate and beautiful,and Captain Feathersword makes an amusing Humpty Dumpty.This video is very entertaining,from my perspective.My children have pretty much outgrown the Wiggles,but I still buy their dvd's for myself,because they're THAT good!』
(Sing a Song of Wigles is Excellent!!) 『The DVD is only about 48min of play time, which is short. But when finished it only cycles through one intro song before replaying. That is perfect. So it can run over a couple of times during our meal time with out a press of button.
This DVD is slower on energy, but really draws the attention of my 10 month son. He will watch and eat a full meal with no fuss.
Truely a great one!! Thank you Wiggles, we need more DVD's like this one with Sam!』
(wonderful!) 『The movie was a little slow in the middle with all of the nursery rhymes, but my daughter still loved it! At the end is a short clip from a live show. We saw the Wiggles live recently. Seeing the show again just thrilled my daughter!』 『Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 10/07/2008 Rating: Nr』
IPhone 3G used's review (Fun, Fun, Fun for the whole family!!) 『I would highly recommend this DVD. My son, 2 and my daughter, 6 LOVE it! The Laurie Berkner Band sing simple, yet interactive songs that allow for creative imaginations to flow. As a family, my sister and I with our kids dance, sing and just have a great time. It has turned out to be good exercise for the adults too. They can't get enough!!』
(Love it) 『My daughter is obsessed with Jack's Big Music Show, where we first discovered Laurie Berkner. I bought the DVD for her after seeing it at a friend's house during a play date. My daughter absolutely loves it, as well as my 3 year old niece. They dance around to it over and over again. It's very entertaining and so cute to watch her try to sing&dance to the songs. You won't be disappointed.』
(WONDERFUL!!!!!!) 『THIS IS THE SECOND COPY WE HAVE PURCHASED IN 2 YEARS. MY DAUGHTER CAN'T GET ENOUGH! WE ARE GOING TO OUR SECOND LAURIE CONCERT IN DECEMBER :) RECOMMEND VERY HIGHLY』
(Great DVD) 『My 20 month daughter really loves the DVD. She is just glued to it and has learnt most of the songs. We dance together and this DVD was well worth the money』
(The Laurie Berkner Band DVD) 『My girls ages 3 and 4.5 loved Laurie and her band immediately. The songs are fun, easy to sing to and cute.』 『Well-known children's musician Laurie Berkner bursts onto the children's music video scene with the energy and enthusiasm of her concert stage appearances fully intact. The Laurie Berkner Band, comprised of Laurie Berkner on vocals and guitar, Brian Mueller on bass and vocals, and Susie Lampert on keyboard and vocals (joined sporadically by Bob Golden on drums and additional instruments), is an accomplished group of musicians who create and perform whimsical, catchy children's songs in a folksy rock style. From the playful rhymes that declare Tuesday "snooze day" in "I'm Gonna Catch You" to the absurd image of fish taking showers and brushing their teeth in "The Goldfish," Laurie Berkner's songs celebrate a child's love of the ridiculous. The uninhibited trio performs live onstage ("Under a Shady Tree") or within simply animated scenes ("Bumblebee--Buzz, Buzz, Buzz") and the songs are undisputedly catchy--so catchy that many parents sheepishly admit to humming or even singing Laurie Berkner's songs full voice even when their children aren't around. In these days of splashy animation and over-thought, overly-glitzy children's music videos, it's a real treat to enjoy a simple production that features songs that kids love performed by musicians who appear to be having just as much fun as their young audiences.

IPhone 3G used's review (A let down) 『Firstly, I thought the MC, Mr.Bill Murray was hugely irritating. Especially as he referred to John McLaughlin as the founder of the "Mahi-Mahi" Orchestra (!). Funny ? Go figure.
Secondly, the production quality, especially the sound, editing and overall stage aesthetics were not a patch on the earlier Crossroads DVD. It's a big let-down. Also, the `Audio' option does not provide for a 5.1 option, only 2.1 is available.
Coming to John McLaughlin, he plays a rather tepid composition, unlike his electrifying duet with Zakir Hussain on the last show.
Even Buddy guy looked a bit jaded. Was it because he came on at the very end ?
The only bright spot was Jeff Beck and his amazing girl-woman bassist (Tal) who played with the same open-mouthed gleeful enthusiasm as a Ronaldino playing soccer. Both the tunes were crackling and left me craving for more.
All in all, I certainly wouldn't go goo-goo ga-ga like all others here. 3 stars will do.
If you really want to see great `live' concerts check out `Concert for George' (featuring Clapton) and `Live in Paris' (featuring Miles Davis !).
Thanks you and goodnight.
Ranjiv Ramchandani. 』
(Crow must go !) 『Bill Murray was right at least once when he said, "You will remember this set the rest of your life". He was referring to Disk 2 and the jam with Winwood, Clapton etc. But why was Sheryl Crow even allowed in Chicago on the day much less on stage with real musicians. Eric may have owed her or wanted something to allow her anywhere near a guitar. Could she have been backstage entertainment? Oh well. Despite her a great great DVD.』
(Very satisfied) 『Fast shipping and item was in great condition. I would buy from this seller again.』
(A Must-Buy for Blues Fans and Wannabe Guitar Heros) 『If you're looking for a grassroots feel to a truely spontaneous concert, this collection of performances over a day-long concert in suburban Chicago is well worth the coin you'll spend. The line-up is spactacular and the emotion created on-stage will spill out of your flat-screen and onto the livingroom floor. The two-dvd set will feature some of the greatest guitarists of all time on stage from various genre' and comes to a turmultuous finale' when 7 guitarist hit the stage to play Clapton's favorites. The shear force of this segment must have put-out a brilliant shockwave that must have been felt in far-away Des Moines. If you've grown bored by a sucession of live shows that are overly-produced to the point of yawn-dom, this is a refreshing time-out from all of the hype. You'll see the human side of these artists with backstage interviews and short edits of legends coming-on and off of their performances. One of the notable high-points was the 15 year-old bassist of Jeff Beck. She is a genius and the facial expressions and body language that emanates from her as she leans-into the tunage will give you goose-bumps. The fact that the entire 2007 concert was a fundraiser for Clapton's Crossroads Centre, a very successful detoxification facility, makes the performances just that much more compelling. PBS offered this set duirng one of their fundraising telecasts. You can get it here for far less. Enjoy! And when it's done, you look at your axe and say, "I've got some new chops to learn!" or "It's hopeless...I'm selling my Strat on eBay."』
(Crossroads - Eric Clapton) 『I love any video concerts of Eric Clapton's ... this video makes 4 in our library ... my husband&I saw him in Vancouver, BC last year and he was awesome in concert ... we are big fans.
Thanks very much!』 『A lot of good (and some great) music for a worthy cause takes center stage once again as Eric Clapton hosts the second edition of hisCrossroads Guitar Festival, a benefit for his Crossroads Centre rehab facility in Antigua and a near embarrassment of six-string riches occupying two discs. Staged in suburban Chicago in July, 2007, it features several of the same players who were at the first concert (2004, in Dallas), including Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, John Mayer, Vince Gill, John McLaughlin, and Robert Randolph. They're all in fine form, but it's those appearing for the first time who make the biggest impressions. Derek Trucks, who performs on his own, with his wife (Susan Tedeschi, herself an excellent blues guitarist), and backing several other artists (including a frighteningly decrepit-looking Johnny Winter), is a strikingly versatile young player. On the other end of the generational spectrum, the veteran Albert Lee spins out a series of stupefyingly swift licks on "Country Boy," while Jeff Beck is, well, Jeff Beck, at age 63 still inarguably one of the most original musicians to ever strap on a Stratocaster. While most of the others are content to play straight blues or blues-derived rock, Beck sounds as if he's riding a spaceship with strings, wringing sounds out of his instrument that defy understanding, let alone imitation; backed by ace drummer Vinnie Colaiuta and 22-year-old Tal Wilkenfeld, who may be the most exciting electric bassist to emerge since Jaco Pastorius, Beck delivers versions of "'Cause We've Ended as Lovers" and "Big Block" that are the highlights of the show. Elsewhere, Clapton, as is his wont, rises to the occasion in the presence of his peers and plays with considerable passion, even if his "reunion" with Steve Winwood lacks fire (mostly due to the lackluster nature of their Blind Faith-era material, other than the lovely "Can't Find My Way Home"). In the end, one might wish for more goodsongs, as opposed to opportunities for extended soloing, but even diehard axe-heads will surely be satiated after some four hours of hot licks. As for everyone else, well, that's why God invented the fast forward button.--Sam Graham』 『Studio: Wea-des Moines Video Release Date: 11/20/2007 Run time: 240 minutes』
IPhone 3G used's review (My Favorite Movie) 『I've loved this movie since I was very young and was so happy when I could buy it on DVD for such a cheap price! I love the music and the story but what I loved about this version is the reunion of all of the actors and actress' still around in 2005! Julie Andrews, Christopher Plummer, Charmain Carr, Nicholas Hammond, Heather Menzies, Duane Chase, Angela Cartwright, Debbie Turner and Kym Karath. They all looked so happy to be with each other again and they made it look like they were the Von Trapp family again!』
(Tremendous DVD) 『This is a wonderful two-disc edition. I only owned this movie on two videos so you can just imagine the excitement I had getting all the extras that went with this! It is so worth owning and the price is wonderful for such a treasure. It gives great background and is most enjoyable to see all the kids in the movie as grown ups and to also hear Julie Andrews speaking with Christopher Plummer. A true winner!』
(Wonderful Movie) 『It was a great family night movie. Both my 8 year old and 4 year old enjoyed it. Very different from the usual movie night movies and a welcome change. Very long for the younger one - he fell asleep and woke up a couple times but well worth the price for this classic.』
(THE SOUND OF MONEY) 『The Sound of Music (Two-Disc 40th Anniversary Special Edition) With nearly three hours of snow-capped Swiss mountains, a sprawling family of six children, extravagant parties, picnics and family concerts in Salzburg and buckets of encouragement from Rogers and Hammerstein, it's no wonder that this film is also called THE SOUND OF MONEY. It won FIVE ACADEMY AWARDS and has taken hundreds of millions dollars. It's the surprisingly simple story of Maria(JULIE ANDREWS), a nun who's Governess to the rigidly disciplined children of an Austrian Military Captain(CHRISTOPHER PLUMMER). She so enchants him that he breaks off his engagement to a socialite baroness. In the meantime, Maria, teaches the children to sing and the whole family is soon giving a concert in Salzburg, after which they flee the country to escape the Nazis.』
(Classic movie) 『This was a brand new movie&was fun to watch. It was worth every penny!』 『Some people may sneer at this 1965 musical, but the truth is the film has earned its status as a perennially watchable romantic-drama, largely on the strength of a fun story and chemistry between stars Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer. Veteran filmmaker Robert Wise (The Day the Earth Stood Still) mostly stays out of the way of the film's appealing elements, which include a based-on-fact tale of Austria's von Trapp family, who fled their Nazi-occupied country in 1938. Andrews is delightful and even fascinating as Maria, who sheds her tomboyish ways as a novice nun to accept the mantle of adulthood, becoming matron of the motherless von Trapp clan. Plummer is matinee-idol handsome and gives a smart performance to boot, and the cast of young people and kids who make up the singing von Trapp children make a strong impression. Based on the Rodgers and Hammerstein stage musical, the score includes such winners as "Maria" and the future John Coltrane hit "My Favorite Things."--Tom Keogh』
IPhone 3G used's review (A masterpiece!) 『This movie is perfection in every way. It is so perfect that I never get tired of watching it over and over again. We really have the impression of living in Jane Austen's time when watching that movie. All the actors are brilliant, above all Allison Steadman who is superb as Mrs. Bennet. Hats off Andrew Davies, Sue Birtwistle and Simon Langton for such a "chef d'oeuvre".』
(Excellent version, and had no problem with subtitles or color) 『This is by far the best version of "Pride and Prejudice". I believe I have seen every one of them and none compares. Laurence Olivier was great of course as Darcy, but Colin Firth has completely captured the character. I doubt that any one will ever be able to portray Darcy better. I am extremely satified that I purchased the 10th Anniversary Collector's Edition even though I all ready had the original DVD of the same produecton. It is definitely well worth the price. I strongly recommend it to every one. The DVDs come in a beautifully designed case, and I thoroughly enjoyed the accompanying behind-the-scenes disc. Even though Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle were busy making other movies and could not be on it, the remaining cast members were very entertaining. The accompanying book, "The Making of Pride and Prejudice" gave wonderful insights to the production. It is extremely well written and full of delightful pictures. If you are a fan, even if you have never seen Pride and Prejudice--do not pass up this one. I do not understand the complaints submitted in several of the other reviews about the color of the film or it's not having subtitles. My 50" television was set at the factory suggested controls, and the color in the DVD was superb! The "woods" were so green and lush it made you feel as if you were actually there with Elizabeth. As far as the subtitles are concerned, I simply hit the "mute" button on my television remote control, and the subtitles were there.』
(disappointment) 『Everything that can be said about this superb story, production, acting, etc. has been said. I was so disappointed, however, when I saw that the color in the DVD was really dreadful. Colin Firth had snow white skin, and pitch black hair and eyes, and poor Jennifer Ehle looked like a witch. I had just about worn out my video when I bought the DVD - I guess I'll have to buy the video again.』
(Love it!) 『I rented it before I purchased. Needed it for my collection. This is the 1996 Edition from A&E with Colin Firth. Must have. I am not sure of the video quality because I loaned to a friend. I purchased because I wanted the edition. 』
(Beautifully made and acted but very LONG) 『The acting is superb but the plot develops very SLOWLY. The whole thing is about 5 hours. If you like Colin Firth, this movie is for you. If you prefer a faster pace, try the Keira Knightley version.』 『Jane Austen's classic novel of 1813,Pride and Prejudice, still wins the hearts of countless schoolgirls with its romantic story of Elizabeth Bennet and her Mr. Darcy. Now, the 1996 BBC miniseries is winning over adults, with its faithful adaptation, gorgeous scenery, and superb acting. The essence of the story is the antagonism between Mr. Darcy, a wealthy single man who believes Elizabeth to be beneath him, and Elizabeth, who upon being insulted at a dance by the aloof Darcy refuses to associate with him in any manner. Austen evokes incredible tension with the wit and flirtation of the two characters, and director Simon Langton (who also directedUpstairs Downstairs) successfully translates the repartee and conflict in this six-hour miniseries. Dialogue, for the most part, is painstakingly replicated, except when fleshing out and smoothing for modern sensibilities was necessary. Darcy, for instance, is drawn out, giving his personality significantly more depth. The acting sweeps you away to Regency England: Jennifer Ehle (of Wilde) is convincing as the obstinate Elizabeth, who, despite her mother's attempts to marry her off, spurs the attentions of Darcy. And Colin Firth (ofThe English Patient) will have women everywhere longing for a Mr. Darcy of their own.
For those who enjoy excellent Austen adaptations such asSense and SensibilityandPersuasion--this miniseries will round out the ultimate Austen library. For those new to these romantic period pieces, this version ofPride and Prejudicewill have you hooked and longing for more. One caveat, however: plan to watch it in an entire day, because very few have the self-control to not watch all six hours in a single sitting.--Jenny Brown
On the DVD There's a lot to love (and a lot lacking) on the 10th anniversary limited edition. It comes in a tall, embossed green case that's out of place on a DVD shelf but blends right into a library of volumes. The three discs fit snugly in a sleeve, accompanied by a 120-page deluxe companion book. The main attraction, a retrospective documentary, features interviews with key cast members with the sad exceptions of Jennifer Ehle (who played Elizabeth) and Colin Firth (Mr. Darcy), which is bound to disappoint fans. Nonetheless, there are some amusing anecdotes from Mr. and Mrs. Bennet (played by Benjamin Withrow and Alison Steadman), Mary Bennet (Lucy Briers), Mr. Collins (David Bamber), Mr. Bingley (Crispin Bonham-Carter) and Mr. Wickham (Adrian Lukis), who all look drastically different--and younger--without their period costumes and hairstyles. One producer recalls that casting Colin Firth in the role with which his name is now synonymous was not an easy feat: he auditioned having gained weight and dyed his hair blond for another role, looking like "an unmade bed." Even Firth's own brother doubted his ability to pull off the dashing Darcy: "Isn't he supposed to be sexy?"
The special features also include a walking tour of the shooting locations with Lukis and Briers and an A&EBiographyepisode on Jane Austen that focuses largely on the onslaught of mid-1990s film adaptations of her novels. If it's your first time purchasingPride&Prejudice, this collector's edition is a nice one to own. But if you already own the movie, you're not missing out on anything here.--Ellen A. Kim

IPhone 3G used's review (I laugh when i "think " about watching this movie again) 『this movie is a comedy masterpiece it is complex with hilarious moments Roberto Benigni is a brilliant comedian one of the best in the business i will buy anything he's a part of. my movie collection cannot be complete without this film hopefully they will release it on DVD soon. there arent many comedies that would have me cackling like a fat lady in a fun house but this is definately a must see i would give it 10 stars.』
(Jim Carrey Who?) 『Jim Carrey has nothing on Roberto Benigni. As an actor whose facial expressions and body language speak volumes, Benigni is a riot. This story of Dante (Benigni) posing as a mob boss all the while unbeknownst to him is hysterical. Dante is sweet and naive which has the audience in love with him in minutes. The film possesses a good story to go along with the comedic elements. You really must see this.』
(Laugh out loud funny!) 『The first half of the film is the set up. After that your stomach muscles better be in shape. Because they are going to hurt bad if your not in laughable shape!!!!』
(Seduction, Italian style) 『This is a wonderful comedy from the actor of "Life is Beautiful." A gorgeous woman seduces a hapless bus-driver to Sicily, all so that she can have him "knocked off" because he looks like a double for her husband - a notorious gangster. Sweet, delicious, and fun. This is what comedy is supposed to be like. Highly recommended』
(Not to be missed!) 『One of the funniest comedies ever. The American version stupidly removes some material ... try to find an uncut version (available on region 2 DVD through Amazon UK).』 『During its release, this was the most popular film of all time in its native Italy. A typical Roberto Benigni comedy of mistaken identity, this 1991 work stars the actor-director in two roles, one a tough mafioso named Toothpick and the other a meek bus driver who is the gangster's look-alike. When the bad guy's girlfriend comes on to the clueless innocent--and she brings him along to her Sicilian villa--the slapstick madness rolls into high gear. Benigni really is a very funny and often remarkable clown, and he employs his usual physical gags in great and gratifying abundance. His script's inspiration reaches several peak moments when the mysteries between light and dark doppelgangers are suggested. One could reasonably call this sort of Jekyll-and-Hyde tale the closest Benigni has yet come to making his version of Jerry Lewis'sThe Nutty Professor.--Tom Keogh』
