----- Original Message ----- From: RMStringer It was made in 1977... Editorial Reviews Amazon.com Far from the masterful treatment that groundbreaking animator Ralph Bakshi gave the similarly themed The Lord of the Rings just a year later, Wizards feels amateurish. A simplistic distillation of fantasy tropes, the scenario is millions of years after nuclear war wipes out civilization. Middle Earth fairies, elves, and magic emerge from the "good lands," while dimwitted mutants with poor comic timing emerge from the nuclear wastes. In the ultimate confrontation between good and evil, a hippie-ish wizard named Avatar defends his utopia against the technological and neo-Nazi revival of his bad-seed twin, Blackwolf. With volleys of jokes that couldn't hit a barn door, elves with Brooklyn accents, and the dubious climax that sees the kindly old wizard using one of the hated machines of war to triumph over evil, Wizards is one of fantasy animation's least successful examples. --Alan E. Rapp --This text refers to the VHS Tape edition. RMStringer ------------------------------------------------------- This line sums up 'Wizards' well, imo: "Wizards is one of fantasy animation's least successful examples." seek

Yeah, I know. Don't worry, Rob kept his intended-as-insults accusations of homosexual behaviour to private replies! Erm, sorry folks. _______________________________________________ KLF mailing list KLF@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/klf
