![Twilight: The Graphic Novel Vol.1 Review [HD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iVJ4u1VH4Qo/mqdefault.jpg "Twilight: The Graphic Novel Vol.1 Review [HD]
My review of and thoughts on the first of a two-volume adaptation of Stephanie Meyers famous young adult romance novel, Twilight. Im not going to bother to recap the story but suffice to say its a dark love story. I also give my thoughts on the Twilight story as a whole, as well as a few thoughts on the movie adaptation to boot because I never reviewed it on this channel. Is this rendition of the story a worthwhile addition to collectors shelves? Or does this a comic rehash put too much emphasis on re-telling the story rather than re-inventing it?

![Bastard!! Anime OVA Review [HD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iXG8Wpt16Lw/mqdefault.jpg "Bastard!! Anime OVA Review [HD]
My thoughts on the 1992 anime sci-fi/fantasy action/comedy series based off the manga of the same name. Wtih a massive egotist/all-powerful magician behind the wheel as the main character, is this a fantasy anime dud or hit? Or does it fall somewhere in-between? Watch the review to find out! If you want to find the anime itself though youd be hard-pressed to find it on DVD as its long out of print and EXCESSIVELY rare but if you do manage to find it or find a torrent or the like online then should you give it a go?

![Debt of Bones Book Review [HD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/joeX1XqLb6I/mqdefault.jpg "Debt of Bones Book Review [HD]
My thougths on Terry Goodkinds prequel novella for his Sword of Truth fantasy series, whose first entry (Wizards First Rule) is preceded by Debt of Bones. Is this quickly-finished novella worth your time as a fan of the series? Is it a good way to introduce yourself to the Sword of Truth series? Watch my review and find out!

![Crank: High Voltage Movie Review [HD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/k9scXM1uRW4/mqdefault.jpg "Crank: High Voltage Movie Review [HD]
My thoughts on the recently released sequel to the Neveldine/Taylor action film Crank. If you like off-kilter or experimental movies tht dont seem entirely pretentious then this might suit you- though be warned that it IS very odd. For all its silliness and baseness I would say its worth a rent though and if youre a fan of the first movie then it fun to see it on the big screen (preferably with friends...and booze).
Intro Song: Just Like Honey by The Jesus and Mary Chains
* I do not own this song but use it respectfully of its creator and claim no value or ownership over it. Check it out. I use only a small sampling of it in my intro, the rest is much better. Also, I feel it important to note I got it off the Lost in Translation soundtrack that I BOUGHT so that should count for something, I think.
CORRECTION: Apparently the literal title for the movie is just Crank: High Voltage, without a number. The number was apparently only added in for the trailer. I doubt anyone else cares but myself but I just had to change it because it bothers me to no end. =)")

My thoughts on the proliferation of RealD in a post-Avatar world, why theatres suck, and what they could do to improve the movie-going experience. What are your thoughts on all of the above and more? Do you enjoy going to the theatres? What is your opinion on EVERY movie going 3-D? Watch my video to find out what I think about all of these questions and more.
