UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
RayrayUK Earthworm Jim is a series steamed from a popular early 90s video game which managed to score a 100% satisfactory grade from a game magazine.The storyline, which is incorporated in the theme song, is about an ordinary earthworm, who is lucky enough to have a super suit, meant for an evil doer on another planet fall on him, giving him super powers. He teams up with a cursed puppy, a living blob of snot and a beautiful space princess he has fallen in love with, together they fight evil villains throughout space and protect the planet Earth.Many parody central series (not mentioning many names) fail in epic proportions down to their key element, the lack of story line, yet where many fail, 'Earthworm Jim' triumphs.The reason I feel 'Earthworm Jim' manages to gain attention among other 'random' series' is the fact that we get to know all characters, their connections to each other, their circumstances and intentions in brief yet detailed scenes. With wacky scenarios and reoccurring villains, viewers know what to expect without feeling disappointed by predictability.
tmcleod40 My husband and I were just discussing how we wished that Earth Worm Jim was back on TV or could get the episodes on DVD. It would be a good addition to our animation collection. (We are cartoon fanatics) We have a 20 yr old son and he and his friends feel the same way. They enjoyed the video games also. There are too many cartoons that we can't even pronounce the names to.If those shows can be put on DVD as soon as they hit the screen; let's give Jim the same respect! My son has the action figures from the TV series. I especially liked his dog that had the split personality. Unforntunatley we haven't seen the movie, so that would be a yes on having it on DVD.
knowledge There were many american cartoon shows based on videogames - pacman, super mario brothers , double dragon and The legend of zelda to name a few. But out of all them earthworm jim was the most effective. Not only did it translate the games wackiness to cartoon form well , but it was hilarious and massively entertaning in its own right.Earthworm jim made a dumb but loveable hero , his rouge gallery was funny (both funny "ha ha" and funny "weird" )as hell and princess wots-her-name was just plain sexy , man (thats right i said it!).And to top it all off , every episode ended with a cow falling on someone.Groovy !.
Miriani The only time I ever got to see it, in all honesty, was on video, of which I only ever saw four 2 episode tapes out of about 25 or so episodes. There's a show that needs to be brought back. It was incredibly silly, but everyone needs silliness. But it was the Pythonesque quality of the comedy that I loved so much. What other show could host a megalomaniacal fish, a Princess named Whats-her-name, and a falling cow, and still be coherent? It's not just the jokes and gags, it's the delivery of them all. Not a dud in any of the episodes I've seen.
