Sione's Wedding (2006): A fun Kiwi/Samoan outing that will provide plenty of laughs for fans of this style of boyish Poly–comedy. Nothing particularly exciting happens, but the ride is fun and light–hearted.; DVD $29.95
Simpsons, The (TV Series) (1989): The Simpsons have become an icon in pop–culture history, and continue to provide laughs to this day. The first seasons’ animation may have dated somewhat, but the attitude and character are certainly here!
Family Guy - Season 1 (TV Series) (1999-2002): You will either love or hate Family Guy, with its strictly politically–incorrect humour and pop–culture spoofs, but this remains one of the most original animated series in years.
American Dad (TV Series) (2005): With a more 'American' theme than Family Guy, Seth MacFarlane brings us another dysfunctional family of stereotypical individuals who battle through unlikely scenarios, providing hilarity throughout. Fans of Family Guy's humour will lap this up.
Cedar Boys (2009): A hard–hitting and realistic Australian drama that takes more than one page from Underbelly's script, Cedar Boys tells of the organised drug and crime industry in Sydney. Not particularly inventive, but a good drama overall.
Underbelly - Season 3 (TV Mini-series) (The Golden Mile) (2010): The third season of Underbelly, although not connected to either of the previous stories, we now take a look at the sex industry and crooked cops of Sydney (again based on true events). Harsh and realistic, Underbelly has still got it.
Underbelly - Season 2 (TV Mini-series) (A Tale of Two Cities: The Mr Asia Story) (2009): Underbelly Season 2 goes back in time to loosely document the story of Mr Asia, a notorious drug–lord who supplied between Asia and Australasia. Not quite as gripping as the first season, this is still quality drama, especially for television.
Underbelly - Season 1 (TV Mini-series) (2008): Stunning Australian gangster series based on the Moran family, one of Australian crime history's most notorious gangs. Gritty and realistic, this made such a splash in hometown Victoria that it was banned so as not to interfere with ongoing legal battles
Space Jam (1996): Another live–action and animated blend (think Roger Rabbit) which pits Michael Jordan and his team of Looney Tunes against a team of aliens in a basketball game to save the planet. Fun, though not as good as 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit'.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (1989): Incredible mixture of live action and animation, still unmatched to this day. Hoskins is a toon hating detective in an alternative world where toons and people co–exist. Roger and Jessica Rabbit join known favourites from Warner Bros' cast.
