There aren't enough stars in the Milky Way to ever come close to fully rating this priceless portrait of the universe's most glittering, glamour queen, the out-of-this-world Pandora - whose heavenly peaks will hold you spellbound for endless hours of the most exquisite self-pleasure. Anything that contains an image of this divinely gorgeous goddess is a must-have! But be sure and purchase extra copies, as you'll soon wear them out through repeated viewings! You can never get enough peeks of those exhilarating Peaks! More, more, more, please!Ahhhh....Pandora!

"A Peek Of Pandora" is unlike Pandora Peaks' Playboy video, or any of her other videos, for that matter. The action starts out with Ms. Peaks, Rayveness and Envy talking about their lives, as they remove various articles of clothing and gyrate about. It's pretty much R-rated stuff up to that point. After that, the three women engage in various activities which I can only describe as triple X-rated. This is not something I would normally expect to find for sale here. However, I must point out that the DVD boasts excellent production values, superb picture and sound quality, and some brief behind-the-scenes footage. This is the hottest video Pandora Peaks has ever appeared in, and I've seen them all!

one of the best mecha anime around. the series has been my favorite long before i really knew what it was about.the best way to enjoy this series is by watching all four of the story lines back to back.

Honestly, Casper him self is so cute, nice looking graphic animation, nice sound track, and dual language. Dont matter which episodes u love to see it 1st, you'll love them all. It's so fun for the whole family, esspecially is more for kids but myself i love this movies alot "" Great movie for great collection""

Finally a made for DVD golf instructional. Simon Holmes is a real trainer and coach - and it shows. This is not about "once-in-a-million" shots by some pro that are impossible for anybody else to do but about solid instruction for all level of players. With over two hours on the DVD the different segments (e.g. the Swing) are systematically developed and presented. The DVD navigation also allows you to go directly to all relevant areas, for example Impact drills for slicers or Controlling distance in bunker shots. This is a DVD that you'll come back to many times.

this dvd is everything i thought it would be. i have been waiting a long time to see something like this. the dvd ties everything i do like surf, skate and bmx and mixed it with some of the hottest girls stripping.
thanks dvx team i cant wait until the next issue

I've always been interested in taking photographs. The part I hate is all the technical details and having to read the manuals. There has always been this barrier to understanding how to REALLY use my camera (a Nikon 880) well. It's loaded with features I knew nothing about. I've never taken a class and didn't know an f-stop from an aperture. This DVD certainly helps clear things up a bit and I think my photos are getting better. Can't wait for the next volume!

I've been shooting digital photography for a few years and on the advice of a friend I bought this DVD for my wife who was interested in getting in digital photgraphy. It brought her up to speed on the bascis of how the cameras work and how to use them very quickly, plus I've found a couple of tips to be very helpful in my photography. I would recomend this DVD to anybody getting into digital photography or who has been shooting for a while.

Whether or not you own a digital camera, this DVD will put you on the right track to getting the most out of this amazing technology.

I've owned a 35mm Canon (actually two) since I was 16. Yikes, that's 20 years now. When the lens on my EOS Rebel broke last summer I bought a Nikon 995 instead. I can honestly say I've shot more photos since the Nikon purchase than in the prior 19 years.

I spent hours if not days deciding which camera was right for me; and weeks figuring out how to get the most out of it from the manual, books and websites. I wish this DVD was available last summer because it's all here. And the quick tips section has already improved my 'eye'. In fact, if the producer is reading this... how 'bout a DVD of just tips... please.

The quality is great. The information relevant, and way more 'readable' than most books. As a volume 1, I'd recommend this to anyone who's new to the digital side of photography, and curious about what makes it different (and in my opinion better). Then again, the tips on composition alone were worth the 30 bucks. Bring on volume 2.

After seeing all of the other parts of the Ranma 1/2 anime, I was so disapointed in this one. It is obvious why the series was almost cancelled in Japan, as the writers didn't really feel how to get the series together adapting Takahashi's series, as with most writers trying to work a series out when it starts. They slaughtered the characters of Ranma and Akane in this one, as it seems Ranma's always making a rude comment and Akane's hitting Ranma every ten seconds. It's also obvious that the dub actors are really trying to get the feel of the original characters, just check out Ranma's voice in the English version(he sounds awful!) compared to the Japanese version. I think it would be best to skip this one.

Ranma 1/2 is by far the most entertaining anime series I have watched to date. Having watched Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Dragonball (Z), etc. I have to say that Ranma 1/2 is easily the most original and hilarious. Although there is plenty of martial arts action, it is also refreshing that no-one ever gets killed. The premise of the Ranma 1/2 series lies in the hilarious situations that occur due to the love interests of the many colorful characters. Needless to say Ranma is in the center of the whole convoluted scenario being the "unwilling" recipient of affections from both female and male suitors (while in his female form). The fact that Ranma is able to turn into a girl makes for some of the funniest situations imaginable.

I have now watched the first 4 seasons of Ranma 1/2 in chronological order and I think seasons 1 and 2 are the best. Season one introduces you to the main characters and sets the background for following episodes. Yet each episode is entertaining and usually adds a new character or interesting story element. Someone who is very familiar with the series may find some of the first few episodes "thin" because many of the main characters don't get introduced till later. However, for those who are relatively new, I think the build up in history and character development is perfect. Enough time is devoted to each new character introduced to give them some depth. In the season 1 set, the story line is relatively linear from episode to episode (each episode continues where the last left off). In seasons 3 and 4 this no longer occurs quite as much with the some episodes becoming almost completely "stand alone".

In conclusion this is a set that all Ranma fans should have and anime fans that haven't yet watched Ranma should definitely start here.

THIS REVIEW IS BEST READ IF YOU'VE READ THE PLOT FROM OTHER REVIEWS.

Rumiko Takahashi manages to make each and everyone of her series there own hit. I saw Inuyasha (by Rumiko Takahashi) on TV (Adult Swim) and I decided to buy an Inuyasha graphic novel. I loved it. I soon bought more Inuyasha graphic novels and continued watching it on TV. Then I decided to try one of her other manga series, Ranma 1/2. After buying the first one, I quickly bought the second and third. Then I decided to buy this, the first season of Ranma 1/2. I know now that I liked this more than Inuyasha. It's filled with comedy, bizzare plots, hidden romance, awesome bizzare martial arts styles (Martial Arts Gymnastics, Martial Arts Skating, Martial Arts Tea Ceremony and more!) and best of all... PANDAS! Pigs, cats, pandas, ducks, it's awesome! If Ranma touches cold water, he'll turn into a girl! if his father touches cold water, he turns into a panda! Ryoga turns into a pig and in future seasons, Shampoo turns into a cat and more!

And, incase men are worried that the romance won't apeal to them, Rumiko Takahashi writes it so that you can't wait for the two main characters to fall in love! And in classic Takahashi style, more than a few people are in love with the two main boy and girl characters (in this case Ranma and Akane)!

I've purchased more Ranma 1/2 graphic novels now, and I also got the first volume of Maison Ikkoku (more Takahashi).
