That’s One Ugly Baby…..Oh Bugger….It’s Me

Jump to CommentsI loved my first bike. It was a second hand contraption called a “Chopper” and only one of the three gears worked, but it gave me one of life’s most precious gifts — freedom.I took it with me to school and roamed free through the village of Eastwood where we lived with the wind in my hair and in my arse and a broad smile on my face. But then I grew up and got a moped and then fell in love with cars and never returned to the land of the bike.For Heidi and thousands of her clog-wea

TequilaCon recaps. For some reason, they are some of the most difficult entries for me to write. And not because I don’t want to talk about them, but because there’s simply too much to tell. It’s like when you meet up with an old friend you haven’t seen in a long time, and you both start talking at each other, quickly trying to fill in every detail you’ve missed over the years, and then you walk away feeling just as distant as when you began, and exhausted. So instead of trying to recoun

5 Stars very good DVD
My daughter loves this DVD and watches it all the time. Teaches about the different kinds of sea shells, camera parts, etc. Very good.

2 Stars Exact clip from Sesame Street
This DVD is just an extensive, exact clip from a 2nd half Sesame Street episode called “Bookaneers (2007)”. I have TIVO and my 17-month old son loves Elmo so recorded episodes of Sesame Street is free and stored on DVR. Since this DVD was a 2008 release, I thought it was new but was disappointed to find out that I already have it recorded! I guess it’s still good to have for grandma’s or the babysitter’s house but other than that, it’s kind of boring and my son was not happy.

5 Stars Terrific DVD - my son adores it
My 2 1/2 year old son loves the beach and all he wants to watch now that he has this DVD is “Elmo at the Beach!”

He also likes the camera portion and has requested it specifically on occasion - “Elmo - Camera!”

He doesn’t like the middle episode (skin) quite as much but it does have some educational qualities.

5 Stars GREAT ELMO’S WORLD DVD
This is a great dvd. My son and daugher have watched it over and over again.

5 Stars Very cute
My elmo fanatic laughs outload to this one!!! We got it for our son as a present to watch while we were on the way to the beach! He loved it!! Very Very cute

5 Stars truly a classic
One of my favorite old time movies. Chevy Chase is a sometimes oblivious but loving father taking his family on a vacation to a theme park in California. A lot of wacky things happen along the way and while visiting relatives. The acting is superb and the writing is fun. This is a great family movie and one for your collection of dvd’s.

5 Stars One of the greatest movies of the 80’s!
Got this movie for my Husband for his birthday. It’s one of his all time favorite movies and couldn’t believe I found it for him!! Amazon has all what you are looking for and you can’t beat the free shipping!

5 Stars Hay Wire
National Lampoon’s Vacation is one wild incredible movie. It is an insane mixture of side-splitting humor and unnerving adventure. Chevy Chase plays the part of the con-man father. Other actors include Beverly D’Angelo, Randy Quaid, Dana Barron, Micahel Hall, John Candy, Imogene Coca, and Christie Brinkley.

There is one ridiculous scene after another as the family travels down the road to their vacation destination: the girl stirring the punch with her hand, the hamburgers with no meat, the biting dog, Aunt Edna in her hair rollers, the disaster in the desert, the dip in the pool. The fun goes on and on. Then there is the grande finale.

This movie made millions. It’s classic comedy — a real hoot. Don’t miss it.

5 Stars One wild and crazy vacation that is well worth taking…
As one would gather from my review of `Caddy Shack’, there is just some humor that, while achieving much praise and cult status, I just don’t really get. You’d expect that since I was not a huge fan of `Caddy Shack’ that I also would find `National Lampoons Vacation’ to be a bit of an overpraised comedy, but what you fail to realize is that Chevy Chase was my favorite thing about `Caddy Shack’ and when you strip away everything I didn’t really like about the golfing spectacle you are left with `Vacation’, a film that I can very much enjoy.

The film tells the story of the Griswold family as they attempt to travel cross-country to visit the amusement park Wally World. Along the way they meet with many obstacles that strain their relationships and prevent them from attaining their end goal, of having fun. They meet up with oddball relatives who hit them up for money. They get stuck transporting a crotchety old woman to another relative’s home. They break down, break up, fight, make up, get lost, endanger their lives and pretty much fall into every type of hazardous condition imaginable and yet nothing compares to what happens when they actually make it to their destination!

All of this is propelled by the hilarious performances by the cast, Chevy Chase in particular. As the everyman Clark Griswold, Chase develops a comical version of ourselves and this is a joy to watch. As he races up alongside the babe in the convertible, giving her the eye while his wife is asleep we can see what is running through his mind. Does he want to cheat? No. Does he like the idea of having the opportunity? Of course he does. Beverly D’Angelo is also wonderful as Ellen. She is the right sort of counterbalance to Chase’s breed of humor and she helps ground the film and makes it more relatable. Imogene Coca is hysterical as the crazy Aunt Edna and Randy Quaid as a memorable cameo as bumpkin Cousin Eddie.

The antics that happen are outrageous and at times even ridiculous (Aunt Edna on the hood of the car = laugh riot), but it never feels that extreme because we are so wrapped up in that `this could really happen’ phase. We see so much of our own family within the Griswold clan that everything they experience feels that much more believable.

Well, some may find it baffling that I enjoy this film so thoroughly yet found much to dislike in `Caddy Shack’. What can I say; they are too very different movies that leave me feeling very differently. The acting here is much more consistent in my opinion, as are the jokes and gags. I found myself laughing out loud here as apposed to concealing a halfhearted chuckle. I have not seen the other `Vacation’ films, and I hear that they are not as good, but I’m definitely going to check them out because this one is a real keeper.

5 Stars Very Funny Movie!!
This is such a great movie. Chevy Chase is really funny in it. Actually all of the people in it are great. If you like funny movies this is one for you. All of the Vacation movies are funny. The one I really like is Christmas Vacation. The price isn’t bad either.

4 Stars Classic Kid Fantasy
This is a classic story of every child’s fantasy…. having their own money, own house and no rules. It’s a very cute show.

1 Star LAME LAME LAME!
I seen this movie along time ago. I thought it was pretty dumb that a man could be so stupid enough to just give give a kid one of his blank checks I mean no one would be that stupid enough to do that. and that kid was such a careless theif he just slipped that blank check in his printer of his computer and typed in a million dollars and cashes it from the bank and now he becomes rich and start living a real lavish life (temporarily) having his own house and all the stuff a kid could ever dream of. The 3 men in this movie were crooks but that kid just got away with alot and he didn’t go to jail for that he should. That money didn’t even belong to him and he didn’t pay for what he did. Well it’s just a movie that can never happen in real life. I give it a 0 stars but amazon won’t let me.

5 Stars A Kid Review
In this movie a kid gets his bike run over by a guy who stole 1 Million Dollars. The guy who runs his bike over signs a check and leaves the amount blank, so that night he print on million dollars on and cashes it. After he cashes it he spends alot using Mr.Macantosh as the name he fakes. So when he has to pay someone he has no money left and the person who ran over his bike wanted the money back but when he finally caught him he had no money… I wont say any more becuse I guess I’m writing a book on the movie!!!!!!!!!!!

1 Star I wish I could give this 0 stars.
This is literally in the top 3 worst movies of all-time. Complete waste of time and life that I will never get back because of watching this crap. There’s always some other movie, or show, or what have you that is a lot better than this.

5 Stars Best Girlfriend Movie
I think I like this one better than the first one…best girlfriend/chick flick movie…such great all around movie!

4 Stars wonderful condition
both movies I ordered were just at described. they were mint condition and well worth the price I paid.

5 Stars Sisterhood of the Traveling pants 2
This product was great and I really enjoyed watching it. It arrived in the shape the company said it would. However, I would have liked to receive an e-mail that told me it had been mailed. I would use this company again.

2 Stars Read The Books
I was a disappointed in this movie. I read all 4 books before this movie came out. It takes the last 3 books and cuts them apart to place into a 2 hour movie. Yes, the movie was ok, but if you want the full show I would strongly suggest reading the books.

5 Stars Excellent!!!
I loved the first part of this movie fascinated me, and now the second part. They are excellent films, in terms of true friendship, true love dating and love of family is concerned, is tremendous film. I recommend the 1 and 2.
