Episode Review: Off The Rails


Plot

Gordon doesn't want to pull a special train because it is fright cars, then he trys to jam the turn table, but slithers in to a ditch. Sir topham hatt sees everything from his office window, and he tells Edward to pull the special train.  They leave Gordon in the ditch all day, and some boys come and sing to him. Then when night time comes The Brake Down Train, Gordon and Henry pull him out, then he goes back to the shed a wiser engine.

Review
 Come on Henry, Gordons' face isn't fat!  Why didn't Gordon's driver put the brakes on to stop him from slithering in to the ditch? They don't need the driver and fireman to go out for the turntable, why didn't the driver stay inside Gordon? Over all I didn't really like the plot of this episode. George Carlin sings the boy's ditch song differently then Ringo Starr.

Over all I give this episode a 3/10

First Video Up On New Channel!!

My new ThomasDVDGuy2 channel has the rocket video on it, but now its time for some real business! I can now start the TWR Community News show on my other channel, and lots more. I plan to get Wooden Railway Paxton at Toys R Us by December and do a discussion on him.


There is also a second video on my new channel, and it is my Trackmaster Thomas discussion. There will be lot's more video's coming out on my channel soon including: Two Trackmaster Set Reviews, TWR Community Rant, TWR Community News #1, #2, and #3. I hope to have all these videos out before the new year.

My views are taken with a Microsoft Life Cam, mostly used for Skype and other things, but right now I'm just using it for You Tube video making. Sometime latter on I would like to do a live video on You Tube.

My channel also now has nine subscribers, please subscribe to my channel. On my old channel I had about 6 subscribers, so I'm trying to build it back up.  Enjoy my videos.

Episode Review: Dirty Objects


Plot
  Toby has just joined Sir topham hatts' railway and James is all ready boasting to him about his red paint, and Toby has all ready found out about James' newspaper and bootlace. Then James has to take a slow fright  train, but he crash's in to a goods train with tar wagons, and he gets covered in tar, then Sir topham hatt tells James that he will get new parts, and that Toby will get a new coat of paint, brown and blue.

Review

Why would Toby ask James why he was red? And how would Toby know that James needed a bootlace when he just joined the railway? They say that James closed his eyes when Toby was talking about him, but he never did. At the end of the episode Sir topham hatt said that Toby would get a new coat of paint that was brown and blue, but the blue shows on Tobys' side plates in the book, but it never shows in the T.V. series.

Over I give this episode a 6/10

Episode Review: Thomas Breaks the Rules


Plot
 Thomas gets in trouble with a police man who tells him that he needs cowcatchers and side plates. Then Sir topham hatt buys Toby, and he brings along his coach Henrietta. Now Toby takes Thomas' trucks, and there is no more trouble with the police man, in fact Toby and the police man become friends.

Review
Thomas is not a tram engine, doesn't the police man know that certain kinds of engine's don't have cowcatchers and side plates? And the police man said public roads, but Thomas only goes on rails! I didn't really like this episode, there wasn't much of a story to it. It's funny that Toby was pulling four trucks on his old branch line, now he is doing the same thing on Sir topham hatts' railway.

Over all I give this episode a 8/10

New Thomas & Friends News Blog Created

A new Thomas & Friends News blog has been created by me just for Thomas & Friends news. The blog is titled 100% Thomas News, and is displayed in Dynamic views, if you want the older view, you can view it in an older browser. The new blog will have news on: Thomas Products, The TWR Community, Thomas DVDs, and much more. I thought that while I'm doing episode reviews that I needed another blog just for news, so I don't interrupt the episode reviews.

Also I might make stand along pages for some of the TWR Community users on You Tube, and there will be more news on King of The Railway as well. I use Dynamic views on the new blog now, because Blogger has updated all the gadgets so they work for Dynamic views. There won't be regular posting on the new blog, like this one, just because there isn't always that much news. There won't be anymore posts like this now on the Thomas DVD Guy blog, on with the episode reviews!

Enjoy the new 100% Thomas News blog.

Episode Review: Toby and the Stout Gentleman


Plot
 Toby's branch line is loosing work, with only four fright cars left, and no passengers, some of Sir topham hatt's family come to take a ride on Toby. Then after a few days of rides Tobys' line has to shut down. So they have a fair well party for Toby. The next day a surprise message comes in the mail, leading to the next story.
 Review

This was a good episode, but why did Sir topham hatt not know Toby. I guess that line became part of his railway latter on in the series. I didn't watch these story's for sometime, so the next story will be a surprise for me too. Why did the children ask if Toby was electric if they could see steam coming out his funnel?
There isn't much else to say about this episode except that there was no bird house next to Tobys' shed.

Over all I give this episode a 8/10

Rocket Launch Back On New Channel

I've deleted my second You Tube channel called Thomas DVD Guy not thinking about what I was doing, but now I have another channel titled thomasdvdguy2, and I'm putting my Rocket Launch video on it.

The rocket in this video is made with a pop bottle, cardboard, a NASA logo printed off the Internet, and it is powered by baking soda and vinegar. The NASA music in the video was found on the You Tube video editor.


My first You Tube channel with the old look was titled Thomas On Target, but there will be lots of other videos on this new channel, titled Thomas DVD Guy 2. You can view the video at my You Tube channel here: My You Tube Channel

Go Go Thomas! DVD Information and Sticky Situations Cover

You Tube User SteamTeam3211 has uploaded a video with the cover of the Go Go Thomas DVD. The DVD has five episodes from season 16 including: Express Coming Through, Race to the Rescue, Flash Bang Wallop!, Welcome Stafford, and Ol' Wheezy Wobbles. On the bottom left of the cover there is a little circle containing Stafford, saying Meet Stafford, just like the Splish, Splash, Splosh, Meet Charlie sign.

I've also found the Go Go Thomas! cover on Wikia, along with the Sticky Situations UK DVD cover. These are the covers.I've also noticed that the UK DVDs still have the text up top, but the US DVDs don't.

You can read the description on the Wikia page at the link here: Go Go Thomas! Description

100th Post-The Lost Crown of Sodor Cover Found


I found this image on the Thomas The Tank Engine Wikia website in the new photo's section. This new King of The Railway movie looks like it is going to be really good. The image has also been published on Amazon.com, but I found it on the Wikia first. You can now pre-order the book on Amazon.com as well.

When you pre-order the book, it costs $3:99. This is the book description shown on Amazon.

 Knights in armor, ruined castles, long-lost treasure, and friends in danger on the Island of Sodor are all part of a brand-new movie, "King of the Railway," starring Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends. This Thomas & Friends story, adapted from the movie, will thrill train-obsessed little boys ages 3–6. It's a tale they'll want to read again and again!

Halloween 2012-Special Episode Review

For a Halloween special post I'm reviewing the season five episode titled Haunted Henry, sorry that it's late.

Haunted Henry Review

  
 Plot

Henry refuses to believe in ghosts until he and his driver see that the gate is closed in front of them, and there's a moving light in the station.  

Review 

At the end the cars seemed scared because they wanted to go faster like they wanted to get away. This is one of the best Thomas & Friends Halloween episodes.

The fog when Henry was driving through the country was way to high around Henry. Henry was smiling at night when they went out, why wasn't Henry scared at first for the second time they went out?

Over all I give this episode a 8/10

November 2012 Update

Season one reviews are all most done and then it's time for Season two and three reviews. I'm still trying to cover some other Thomas & Friends news while doing all these episode reviews.

This blog is all most at 10,000 views and once I get there, I will  release a special post that has been a draft for a long time now. The King Of The Railway sounds really cool so there will be lot's more news on that.

The TWR Community official website is now in the works, I'm working on the HTML5 and CSS3 of the website and should be out in spring 2013.

My You Tube Channel still won't have videos because there is no way to put a SD card in our computer, but I might upload some of my older videos that I still have on the computer.

I'm all most at my 100th post to so there will be a special 100th post as well.  That's it for the November 2012 Update.
