TV studio, until one day when he escapes and sets off in search
of his owner, who he beleives has been kidnapped. Now in the
real world, he teams up with a jaded, abondoned, housecat
called Mittens and TV-obsessed hamster, Rhino, who has his

First
'Ocean review
HomeMediaMagazine.com
have one of the first reveiws of When I Find The Ocean,
on DVD. Here is what they had to say...
There’s a really decent movie hidden
somewhere inside When I Find the Ocean, but unfortunately
it’s drowned beneath a bevy of lessons and melodrama.
Preteen Lily (Holly) is grieving over
her father, a sailor lost at sea. She lives on a farm with
her paternal grandparents and her mother, who is about to
marry a man (Tyson) who thinks a belt is a proper tool for
disciplining a child.
Obsessed with the ocean and unable
to withstand these secret beatings, Lily runs away, drifting
down a creek that’s filled with more dangers than you
could imagine — a cougar, redneck poachers and a whole
lot of racial injustice.
The setting is lovely and Lily’s
relationship with her grandfather (Majors) is touching and
inspiring — what kid wouldn’t want to grow up free
on a farm with an outdoorsy grandfather and his friend (Greene)
teaching her how to survive in the wilderness?
But what could have been a poignant
family film centered just on Lily, her grief and the unveiling
of her monster stepfather-to-be turns into a treatise on race
relations in the South in the 1960s that has nothing new to
say and only gets in the way of the more interesting tale.
Majors and Greene are sturdy and likeable,
and Tyson is appropriately slimy and menacing. Young Holly
physically fits the role well, but doesn’t always have
the gravitas required. Ladd is another story as the shrill
grandmother, whose overblown Southern accent rivals Paula
Deen’s syrupy twang.
Tonya S. Holly (mother of the lead)
wrote, directed and produced the film. As a first effort,
it shows promise, but it also shows the need for some other
hands to be involved — particularly during the writing
process — and hopefully that will happen for Holly’s
next film. — Laura Tiffany

a legend was born. Many of us are still here 35 years later,
expectantly waiting a new TV series, a motion picture, or
just the old shows to get a DVD release that pays them the
respect and appreciation they so rightly deserve. So, Styeve,

Tough Guys
Lee and Alex Wynter [Ben10 director] were guests on Jonathan
Ross' BBC Radio 2 show today and a fine old time they had!
They were on for around 40 minutes, including music and news
and it was great to hear Lee in a real interview rather than
just the usual 5-minute sound bite or promo bits. Lee and
Alex both had plenty to say and Jonathan drew out some stories
of Lee's work on his previous shows and with the old Hollywood
greats: Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Crawford and Charlton Heston.
Drop by Jonathan's homepage
to re-listen to the show over the next 7 days [Lee and Alex
come on around 30-40 minutes into the show] and we'll be posting
editted highlights of the interview next week. By the way,
Lee mentioned the huge British fan following he has, plus

As promised Lee was the big guest on today's edition of the
topical ITV morning show This Morning and Faith came
too! The pair seemed to enjoy themselves and got to taste/judge
a shortbread making competition [Lee commented afterwards
he got a sugar buzz!]. Lee then joined hosts Fearn and Eamon
on the couch for a chat. The subject of the new Bionic show
came up and Lee commented he thought it was too dark and violent
for kids, not like Lindsay's original show. They showed some
clips from SMDM, Fall Guy and Big Valley
[a movie of the BV 2-parter 'Flight of the Lost Souls'
was on Channel 5 this afternoon... talk about getting your
Lee-fix all in one day!], and Lee commented how good the 2
young stars of Ben10:RAT were. I think we would all have liked
the interview to go on longer, but alittle Lee is better than
none! The main interview is available in RealMedia here
[10Mb] and a whole bunch of screengrabs are here...

by a different distributor called MontereyMedia. This is great
news because this company is going to release the film in
select theaters in the U.S., DVD and television. The plans
are for the theatrical release in June '08. We waited for
the clearances on two songs, which we are now lifting to prevent
any further delays. Everyone is very excited about the theatrical
release. Maybe we'll get one in Europe.
Your patience has meant a lot to us.
I can tell you that no one wants to see this film more than
the director. It has been a long year since
the announcement was made for DVD release. We're all just
looking forward to holding a copy in our hands.
We will let you know the dates and
cities of the theatrical release so that all the Lee Majors
fans will be up to date on "When I Find The
Ocean." The DVD will be released shortly there after,
with even more special features.

Ben10
press release
We want to thank Barney Hopper at Cartoon Network,
London, for the following Press Release for the movie and
the accompanying stills:
The UK premiere of Cartoon Network's
highly anticipated live-action movie Ben 10: Race Against
Time, based on the hit animated series launches on Cartoon
Network on the first day of half term: Monday 11th February
at 10am.
Ben Tennyson is a normal 10-year-old
boy but ever since he got a strange gadget called the Omnitrix
stuck to his wrist he's been able to turn into 10 alien superheroes
that can fly, shoot fire and even walk through walls. From
the powerful Fourarms and the beastly Wildmutt to the super-fast
XLR8 and the slime-spitting Stinkfly, Ben can morph into a
whole host of superheroes with an amazing array of super powers.
The movie follows Ben as he returns
to his hometown after an exciting summer travelling across
the country fighting evil with his cousin Gwen and Grandpa
Max. Any hope of a quiet routine of family, friends and school
is shattered as Ben's nemesis, Eon arrives from another galaxy
to claim the Omnitrix and destroy the Earth. Now, Ben, Gwen
and Grandpa Max are on a mission to stop Eon and save the
world from total destruction!
The movie which broke all ratings records
when it aired in the US is directed by Alex Winter star of
Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. The film stars Graham
Phillips (Evan Almighty) in the coveted role of Ben Tennyson,
Haley Ramm (X-Men 3) as Gwen and Lee Majors (The Six Million
Dollar Man) as Grandpa Max.
Jo Barlow, VP of Turner Broadcasting
says, "Ben 10 has proven to be a huge hit for us in 2007.
We are really excited about the movie as it has everything
a Ben 10 fan would expect; action, suspense and an awesome
villain. It's the next step in the Ben 10 adventure and I
can't wait to tune in."
The movie will be repeated at 5pm on Monday 11th February.

Ben10
London prem. update
We spoke to a very helpful chap from Cartoon Network's
London office today and he said the premiere is a one-off
event and, unfortunatly, not open to the public. The special
screeining is for competition winners, and the like, and as
a prelude to the movie having it's UK Tv debut on the next
day, on Monday the 11th of February. It will be screened at
10am and then repeated at 5pm, GMT, but please re-check times
with your local cable/satellite supplier. We asked if they
were considering doing a sequel, due to the huge ratings numbers
that this one brought in and the response was "Watch
this space". Keep checking back, we'll post up any further
promotional information for Lee and the movie that we get
as we hear it.

Classic
Bionic Commando gets an update... twice!
Anyone one around in the age of clasic gaming in the mid-'80's
will likely have played Bionic Commando, a regular
GI Joe guy with one exceptional ability/weapon... a Bionic
arm. Although not one of the biggest selling games of the
NES [Nintendo Entertainment System] era, Bionic
Commando is now fondly remembered by almost all who played
it. With Bionic Woman back on TV, it's the Commando's
time for a make-over not once, but twice. The original game
is being updated and coming to Xbox LIVE® Arcade, PlayStation®
Network and PC in spring 2008. Entitled Bionic Commando
Rearmed, the game has had a graphical make-over and can
be played in single or multi-player mode. Also on the horizon
is sequel to the original game with all new Next Gen graphics,
again for Xbox 360 PS3 and PC. Check out the below pics and
visit the official full-blown web experience that is Bionic
Commando for the full intel!
The all-new Next Gen graphics will make this
Bionic Commando a force to be reckoned with!
   
The original NES graphics, and below Bionic
Commando Rearmed.. looks good, huh?
