IPhone 3G used's review (Battery Operated Flickering Melted Edge Votive Everlasting Candle) 『BE AWARE!! This is only about 1½" tall and 1½" wide. It doesn't flicker like a candle so much as it is like an annoying flourescent bulb that needs changing.』 『Note on candle quality: Know what you're buying. Not all LED candles flicker (like those sold in closeout stores and dollar stores.) If having a realistic candle effect is important, make sure you buy "flickering" candles such as these. When you need to replace the CR2032 batteries after 120 hours of use (or 30 four hour uses), avoid spending $9 per battery in your local hardware or convenience store. We sell Lithium CR2032 replacement button batteries for $2.99 / five pack (that's less than 60 cents per battery.) Search on Amazon for B000RJODBQ』

However, if you believe a good film is something that REQUIRES all those components, then dont even watch CHRISTMAS ON MARS. You'd be confused, disappointed, and bored. However, if you loved CLERKS, for being a $30,000 self financed film, or ERAISERHEAD for Lynch's near 7 year effort to see it completed , or 200 MOTELS for being a rock band film that tried to be bizarre for its own artistic sake, then go ahead and buy this film. You'd enjoy it, even if you never HEARD of the Flaming Lips. Because this film rests on the D.I.Y concept behind Eraiserhead, Clerks and 200 Motels. You dont need to be graduate of Film school, to make a film. Just a lot of Moxie, and imagination, and this movie has plenty of both.
Actually, its safe to say that, like much of the LIPS music, the influences for the film are a strange combination of the surreal, the punk-adelic, and high concept "ART" music, or here, arty concept cinema. CHRISTMAS ON MARS takes a huge influence from Lynch, Krubrick's 2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY, as well as from no-budget scifi 60s films like SANTA CLAUS CONQUERS THE MARSIANS. The film's 2001 SPACE ODYSSEY parody gets underscored by everything from the SPACE BABY, to Steven Drozd's role of some type of psychologist,(HAL) observing an isolated space station, spouting philosophy and failed attempts to analyse his own, and the crews' hallucinations. (If you want a taste of the dialogue, just read ANY of the FLAMING LIPS liner notes on their albums, or Wayne's interviews about his work. Its filled with the same acid head philosophy, and dry, hippie-punk humor.) The movie is mostly in black and white. When it comes time to show us the alien, and how he travels thru space, its accomplished with cheap, tho well imagined, makeup and costumes, along with ultra psychedelic color saturated video effects, and LOUD freak out music. HALUCINATION becomes literal space travel for the Alien. These freak out TECHNICOLOR scenes, coupled with feedback electronics also represent the Mars space station workers hallucinations. The mind of the people, and the station, deteriorates, and only the space alien Santa, and the birth of a baby on Christmas Eve, can save the station. That's the plot, more or less. How much the Space Baby in 2001, or Eraserhead's baby, is a jumping off point for CHRISTMAS ON MARS, and how much is an homage to the meaning of Christmas, who can say? Does it matter? The film is too much fun on its own terms.
This XMAS SCIFI film succeeds for the same reasons good, low budget community theater succeeds. The imagination of the audience is required, to make the whole thing work. The FLAMING LIPS D.I.Y. punk esthetic allows the film to be successful on its own standards. This is why MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR didnt work for the Beatles. They already had a very professional film esthetic developed, when they made a very experimental non professional film. It was not what people expected from the Beatles. This film, however, is exactly what you might expect from THE FLAMING LIPS. They have been working on it for 7 years, and many thought it would NEVER be released. If you enjoyed the way SCIFI comedy was approached by MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000, mixed with wierd band films like 200 MOTELS by Zappa, this film's "concept" will not be lost on you. The most funny, freaky "monster" in scifi history, has to be the space alien Santa Claus. The real monster is THE HALUCINATION BABY carried by some "genital headed" man in a space suit. It's not as scary as Lynch's ERAISERHEAD baby, but its at least as wierd. The SPACE BABY is the theme of the film. The obvious message of a "space" baby born on Christmas Eve, which might save humanity thru hope, is about as subtle as a brick to the head. But , its nice to be reminded of Humanitys need to have hope, and feel faith there's a meaning of the universe. Whats enigmatic, or at least confusing, is that there are TWO babies in the film. What the interaction is between the hallucination monster baby, and the SPACEBABY in the plastic bubble, born on Christmas Eve, who knows. Justaposistion of outer opjective reality and inner, psychic meaning may be part of this film's thematic continity.
Fans of the band will love the film, especially if they enjoy their "YOSHIMI" period. Beyond that, I think fans of experimental, low budget film with a freaky conceptual basis, would enjoy the film as well. Some of the sets have a sort of "FOUND ART" beauty in them. Visually, the film looks as tho a lot more money was spent on sets and scifi experimental gadgets, than was actually spent. If you liked the artwork for the YOSHIMI album, and CD singles, then you'll like the visual feel of this film. There's lot of extras on the DVD, including interviews with all the band members, and a nice segment where Wayne shows you his storyboards, and visual concepts, behind the development of this project. Personally, this is a film you either really like, or hate. I love SCIFI, i love the band's sound, and i love this type of "positive attitude" hipster philosophy, and i love the D.I.Y. look of the film, so I think the whole thing is great.』
(Horrible!!!) 『The first five minutes of this film looked promising. I was expecting a trippy, psychedelic music sound scape with elaborate visuals and that is what I got in the first five minutes only. "Vagina" is the subliminal message to this film and against a weak story. Not to mention the horrible acting and too much unnecessary cussing. Where is the music? Where is the psychedelia? Where are The Flaming Lips' music? Bleak and a waste of two hours!!!』
(What you'd expect from the flaming lips...) 『This is a difficult movie to review. While watching it I couldn't decide whether or not I liked it or if it was meeting my expectations. However, I felt myself being drawn into Wayne's strange and eerie but kinda warm imagination as the movie went along. There is more to the story then what I had heard through other people that had already seen it. In no way is this just some random story with a weak plot and trippy visuals. I rather enjoyed the story and think they did a great job capturing the human psyche and heart. Humans are a resilient bunch of living things and can overcome quite a bit but what the movie really gets at is how humans are not supposed to live in space, at least not with a little help from something supernatural. A good human story in that if you can get past the sometimes week acting and low budget filming you can really enjoy what these guys have tried to do. The reason I give this four stars is not because of the weak acting and low budget filming. I was hoping to see a little more flaming lips music in this movie rather then just backround music the whole time. I see what they were trying to do but maybe if they make another movie it could be more flaming lips music that we all know and love mixed with some random scenes and visuals that only could come out of Wayne's endless imagination. Purchase it and come into it with an open mind. Give it a real chance all the way through to the end and if nothing else you should at least be touched (that is if you are human).』
(Simply one of the best things in the world!) 『How many stars can I give? ***** There, there's five more stars. Ten stars!! I love this movie so much, it just makes me giddy to think about. The highest praise. So good.』
(Turn on, tune in....) 『And get ready to have your senses blown in this eargasm of sounds with a fantastical mix of visuals that will give you eyeboners. This is a must for any David Lynch fan! And a holy relic to all flaming lips fans. This is an instant cult film.』 『Studio: Wea-des Moines Video Release Date: 11/11/2008』

(Nirvana, MTV unplugged in NEw York) 『I never saw Nirvana on Live like this beofore ,just listened their Music&Songs and heard about them since the past 7 years... This is the first show of them as I saw on DVD,All their Hits were on the show, Kurt Cobain was still alive, even though he was gone....That is the grest show with miracle voice of him.』
(Awesome concert) 『I never was into nirvana until this year and I always seen them as a loud screaming band. I never thought they could pull this kind of proformace off. And in this they did. Kurt was amazing at how he sung each song in a very mellow tone. This dvd is worth having.』
(Nostalgia at its finest) 『I had been looking for this DVD for years. I am not a huge Nirvana fan, but this is a must have for any early 90's music fan. A true treasure for the music enthusiast.』
(Almost Epic) 『The show is stunning; especially if you forgot about it and haven't watched it years. Some things you'll notice and love are: the uncut broadcast of course, different camara angles for a lot of shots and views that are new to everybody that is used to MTV original broadcast. Also, the new audio mastering sounds just incredible. Bonus features include the practice session in which they rehearse some songs. There is also an interview bonus section; nothing out of this world, but it's a plus.
Since the audio was not edited for this DVD, you can hear Kurt messing up the lyrics for the song Lake of Fire. I was used to the original broadcast and so I never got to taste what raw power was behind the show. This was released just in time to make me remeber how much I love this band and how cool to see any uncut performance is, specially if it has this incredible energy and honesty. All in all, this is must have for any Nirvana fan and a nice gift to the rest of the world.』 『Studio: Uni Dist Corp (music) Release Date: 11/20/2007』

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (A Classic Documentary for a Classic Band) 『Classic Albums: Rio by Duran Duran is a fantastic look back at a pop music phenomenon that helped shape the 1980s MTV generation. As a fan of Duran Duran since the mid-1980s, I have always been interested to learn more about what Duran Duran did behind-the-scenes to write and produce their music. This documentary features new interviews with the band, their former managers, as well as other associates and musicians (Bob Geldof, for example). Older archive footage of the band is also used here. There are some nice behind-the-scenes glimpses at the making of their videos in Sri Lanka (Hungry Like the Wolf, Save A Prayer). The documentary is honest and informative and moves along at a nice clip. I hope Duran Duran releases more documentaries like this for the Notorious, Seven and the Ragged Tiger, and [Arcadia's] So Red the Rose albums. The DVD package also includes a modern recording of live performances of some of their classic songs. Any Duran Duran fan, especially long-time ones from the 1980s, will love this release.』
(Beware! Manufacturer Flaw!!!) 『This review is for the disc itself, not the documentary. I urge all of you that purchased this disc to hold on to your receipts. I had returned 4, yes 4 of these discs from two different stores. None of them had a single scratch on them and yet they all skipped in exactly the same places for the first 15 minutes or so of the main documentary. This DVD was not made properly. I tried those discs on 2 different DVD players and my computer, and had the same problem each time. It's possible there was just a bad batch of them made that ended up in my area, but it is also possible that they are all like this. I'm just warning you guys.
I am so angry because I can't get my money back. I'm stuck with a shoddy product. The company that made these discs better offer us compensation once they realize what they've done!』

IPhone 3G used's review (review from Regina[ kid]) 『This movie is great funny i have wacthed this since i was 5 and its been played so many times. The songs a great and catchy like gota get that name my mom and me sing that evry time after the movie. get this movie you won't regret it 』
("Gotta Get That Name!") 『This is one of the most hilarious things I've watched on tape. The Muppets do their versions of several classic stories.
Including: The Emperor's New Clothes The Boy Who Cried Wolf King Midas Three Little Pigs Rumpelstiltskin The Elves and the Shoemaker
It's something I can watch over and over. And my favorite part of the entire movie deals with my title: the song they sing during Rumpelstiltskin when trying to guess his name. Priceless.』
(Wacky Fairy Tales) 『Who doesn't love a fairy tale? Now imagine your favorite fairy tale with a new humoristic twist performed by the muppets and you have unstoppable laughter. The songs are catchy and I found my daughters singing them after watching this movie. Muppets are supposed to be fun and this movie is an fine example of their very best. This movie has been viewed many times in our household.』
(Nothing to write home about but certainly no failure) 『The Muppets are still the Muppets. I agree that since Jim Henson died, it seems to take a lot more effort to put together something worthy of their original off the wall charm, but it can and has be done in Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppets Tonight!. Muppet Classic Theater shows us that the focus has shifted to Gonzo and Rizzo since Dave Goelz and Steve Whitmire are among the few Muppeteers still dedicated exclusively to Muppet projects. Granted, these stories are rushed and simplistic and the songs are mediocre, but the work Goelz and Whitmire put in reminds us that these are still the characters we love. It's much like seeing your favorite actors in a bad movie. The story isn't so hot, but you can tell they've still got it and will go onto do better things.』
(Great!) 『This movie is a musical of some very know fairy tales with funny twists to them. This is very, very good! I reccomend it for everyone! A classic for ALL ages! They need to come out with a cast recording!』

It's one of the earlier Blue's Clues, but what stood out to me was how it seemed to click with my son.』
(My favorite of the Blue's Clues vidoes so far) 『Steve does a great Elvis impersonation. This is also one of the more fun videos that we have watched. Kids are encouraged to participate during the video to help solve the problem. Higher order thinking skills, creative thinking, ordering, prediction and more. If you do allow your child to watch tv, this is a good one for the two year old and up range.
Enjoy.』
『Finally, parents will have something to pop in the VCR when their hopelessly addicted tots ask for a hit of the blue dog during one of the many hours it's not actually playing on television. This 50-minute video contains two segments that touch on several traditional tales, but focus on "The Three Little Pigs" and "Goldilocks and the Three Bears." There's a little Elvis humor for the adults, but most of the jokes are aimed squarely at the pre-K set, who are asked to help our rugby-shirted friend Steve discover his evasive cartoon dog's favorite stories. With any luck, the video should buy you more than 50 minutes of peace as your child is likely to be inspired to engage his or her dog in porridge-portion comparisons or corner the cat behind the washing machine for a rousing game of "Little pig, little pig, let me come in."--Kimberly Heinrichs』
