Customer Review: I have bought this THREE TIMES it is so good! PERFECT I have two boys spaced apart. I bought the VHS version of this tape twice for my oldest son (the first one got lost). He could count to thirteen before he was 20 months old, after watching it a few times a week for about a month. My youngest one is 19 months and I just bought him this video (DVD) a couple weeks ago...he has watched it about 3 times and is already trying to sing along with the skits. There isn't a lot of the muppets but my kids never watched a lot of tv when they were little so they were not disappointed to not see a lot of Elmo and Telly (to be honest neither was I). I think this is a wonderful video for little ones and I usually watch it with them (My 7 year old likes it too...again). This is the first review I have done for a product, I don't normally bother but I just love this video so much I want others to try it out.

Limited Edition Reissue of this Classic Album Presented in a Special Package featuring a CD with a Top Side that Resembles an Original LP Vinyl Album, but Don't Let the Looks Deceive You...it's A Fully Playable CD. Customer Review: this is where it all began This album, like Kongcrete's debut self-titled album, truly defined the whole genre of rap rock or mashups between hip hop and rock. It put hip hop on the rock map and vice versa. The production on this album lacks some of the edge in Rage's albums which followed, but contains much of the seminal anger and defiance which would later be the trademark of Rage as well as other groundbreaking bands which followed such as Kongcrete. Action movies in the year 2008 are still using music from this album.

Paul Newman gives one of the defining performances of his career, and cemented his place as a beautiful-rebel screen icon playing the stubbornly tough and independent title character in Cool Hand Luke. And before he became familiar as a sidekick in 1970s disaster movies (Earthquake and the Airport movies), George Kennedy won an Oscar for playing Dragline, the brutal chain-gang boss who tries to beat loner Luke's cool out of him. It's a classic rebel-against-the-repressive-institution story in the line of One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest or The Shawshank Redemption. Certain moments have become classics--particularly the hardboiled egg-eating contest, and the immortal line (drooled by Strother Martin, as a sadistic redneck prison officer), "What we have here is a failure to communicate." And don't forget, Luke is also the source of the oft-quoted driving ditty, "I don't care if it rains or freezes, long as I have my plastic Jesus, right here on the dashboard of my car..." He is cool, all right. --Jim Emerson Customer Review: Overated and Boring This supposed classic is an absolute bore and features characters that you could really care less about. I wish the studios would get serious about releasing older movies...Cool Hand Luke and Ms. Doubtfire aren't the types of older movies that most of us want to see released in the early years of Blu-Ray. How about Lawrence of Arabia and The Godfather?
