Micransix Crappy film

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

siratlas1968 Bardel Entertainment is an animation studio based in Vancouver and this animated television show was voiced in New York City by the 4Kids Entertainment voice talent. Another Vancouver-produced cartoon voiced by the 4Kids Entertainment voice talent was "Chaotic" (2006). All cartoons produced by Bardel Entertainment were voiced in Vancouver. Therefore, I wonder. Was this animated television show and "Chaotic" (2006) were intended to be voiced in Vancouver, like many cartoons produced by Bardel Entertainment? If these two animated television shows produced by 4Kids Entertainment were voiced in Vancouver, it would be better. Too bad 4Kids Entertainment didn't outsource their properties to Los Angeles, Vancouver and other important dubbing places. For this reason, I strongly believe that 4K Media Inc. will surely correct such mistake.

falconfighter0123 For a company such as "Rare", one of whom isn't a stranger to making titles filled to the brim of bizarre subject matter, has pretty much shown the top of the barrel with there newest creation. "Viva Pinata" is a game that is very hard to pin down as far as games go. Indulging in amazingly bizarre sceneries. As well as a gameplay style that shares many different perspectives from different games. WHich all wraps up in a game that is hard to be understood. Yet, with its many different issues, and there really are some, it does all come together in a gameplay experience that is, in one word, irresistible.In "Viva Pinata" you are placed in the whimsical world of Pinata Island. A island totally inhabited by strange, yet, lovable paper-mica animals. As well as the people who care for them. You are put under control the task of supervising a garden of your own. Where you must create a desolate land into a piñata paradise.The gameplay in "Viva Pinata" is a strange mix between "The Sims" and "Animal Crossing". Start off your garden with nothing more then a desolate land of dead grass and gravel, yet, before no time you will have a land thriving with many different and varied piñata creatures. To get piñatas to visit your garden you must begin with a lower level piñata to attract more higher level piñatas. You begin with a worm, the worm attracts the sparrow, and then the sparrow attracts the snake and so one and so forth.The Creatures of "Viva Pinata" are varied in there look as well as behavior. Each creature is a strange spin off of a real world animal. Yet, with a snack related name. Such as a flying sparrow themed piñata with the last name as "mint". Which together become "Sparrowmint". Each creature as well has there own behavior. For example, some creature just relax as other are more prone to fighting other piñatas that invade there territory. Which is where you come in to stop them from doing so.There are also "Sour Pinatas", piñatas that are evil in nature. They will come in and either persuade the resident piñatas to battle each other or battle other piñatas themselves. Which is one of the areas of which "Viva Pinata" is more targeted for older more experienced gamers. Since the game can get very out of hand at times, driving into a game that can at times be too much to handle for younger children.There is also an entire level to "Viva Pinata" that requires you to breed you piñatas in the form of a ritual called the "Romance Dance".There are places where you can buy items for your gardens and piñatas from stores. As well as an online mode that allows you the ability to trade piñatas with others over Xbox Live. Which is a good feature, yet, it would have been nice to see more functionality with online. Such as a feature that allows you to visit others gardens or something along that line.As far as achievements in "Viva Pinata, the game deals them out in increments of 20. The achievements run the gamete of small and easy requirements such as naming a piñata. To achievements that will take you very long to do. Such as becoming a "Master Romancer" for 20 different species of piñatas or playing the game for more then 50 hours of real world in game time. The achievements overall are very well designed and breath even more life into a game that is already very fun to play.The presentation in "Viva Pinata" is absolutely riveting. While it may not be up to the likes of "Gears of War" as far as technical aspect goes. It borderlines perfection as far as art design. The world is whimsical and vibrant with color. Complementing the games target audience of a younger group even more. Even the piñatas themselves have a paper look to them to emulate there piñata look even more. The audio is also very well done. With the piñatas all having there own sounds that really help the world come to life even more.The real problem with "Viva Pinata" is the fact that the game is clearly designed for children. Yet, the gameplay is much the opposite. As it can be just too much for children to handle. making the true target audience a little off for this game. Yet, at the end of the day. "Viva Pinata" is filled with amazingly vibrant vistas and a fun and addictive gameplay that could serve to keep a player hooked for hours on end. No matter what kind of game player you are, you owe it to yourself to give "Viva Pinata" a try.

BlackJack_B Viva Pinata is one of the best children shows to come down the pike in a long time. A joint venture between Fox Kids, YTV, Microsoft and Rare, VP is about the adventures of the various Pinatas that live on Pinata Island. These piñatas are hoping that they can be chosen to entertain at a children's birthday party.While there are multiple characters on the island there are four piñatas that are pretty much the lead characters. Franklin Fizzlybear is a friendly, happy-go-lucky sort who sounds very similar to Michaelangelo of TMNT fame with the California surfer accent. Hudson Horstachio is a vain horse-type piñata that loves attention and being a regular visitor to "kids with sticks". Fergy Fudgehog is a neurotic type who fears being used as a piñata and tries to do everything he can to avoid being launched to a party via the cannon at Pinata Central. Paulie Pretztail is a cocky, intelligent sort who looks out for his friends.The show's computer graphics are very nice, the writing is excellent and should appeal to all ages and even has made me laugh on occasion. VP is one of the better kid's shows and I highly recommend it. It can be seen on FOX in the U.S., YTV in Canada or via free downloads if you own an Xbox 360 like I do. The game based on the show is great, too.

kodyboy555 VIVA PINATA is my favorite show , I would add episodes to the TV series. I'll forget buying the video game! David Doenut (Brendan Fraser) is a cool deer , Brendan Badgesicle (Ralph Macchio) is wearing a Hawaiian shirt , Larry Lackamint (Charlie Sheen) got a Viva Pinata Shirt. Triple cool. Jorge Jameleon (Tom Cruise) is a physic reader chameleon , Florence Fizzlybear (Tara Strong) is Franklin's girlfriend , she wishes to marry Franklin , Fury Fizzlybear (John Leguizamo) is a bear who's name is from a kind of disaster or somewhat is something , there are more appearances and there are more than 60 species to appear! Triple Wow and Bearabunga! Did You Know Hudson Horstachio got webbed gloves? Cocktail is the same name from Tom Cruise's Movie which is being aired or not , I don't know. Adding More Episodes and More Species will be added to my favorite TV show , not the video game. This contains no violence. It also contains adult language like Fergy saying "Oh , Fudge!" , "Holy!" and he is grounded. Grrrrr. 14 year old boys and girls will see the show. Marc Thompson moved to Minnesota and met Brian Maillard. Franklin Fizzlybear and I will see you!
