This did not work at all!! and I am thinking it was probably not from the same manufacturer because I bought the same product from WalMart about 3 yrs ago and that was effective.
Will not but online again.

The premise... derived from the original, revenge of the families of slave traffickers.  Sounds good, right.  No.  The cast tries hard but can't overcome the derivative direction and lazy storytelling.  So many other stories could have been told with this platform... but... No.  Feels more like a rush to make a profit on the original rather than and effort to make a decent movie.  Ahhh... well.

Book 3 of the "Left Behind Series."

Am I plagiarizing Charles Dickens? Or are LaHaye and Jenkins plagiarizing Charles Dickens? I mean "Chapter 1" starts with:  "It was the worst of times. It was the worst of times." Or are they cozying up to Gertrude Stein? You know: "A rose is a rose is a rose...?"

Far from answering multitude of serious religious questions, the book(s) so far managed to raise a multitude of less important but much more humorous ones:

1. Why would the Antichrist destroy "military ships en route to Baghdad?" Baghdad is nowhere near any sea shore? It's a completely land-locked city.

2. If you are a born-again Christian who just recently accepted Jesus, why would you be so mean as to coerce a lesbian character by threatening to report her gender preference to Antichrist? I mean he's the Antichrist, for God's sake! He KNOWS she is gay! I mean doesn't he?...  And if he doesn't, maybe he's NOT the Antichrist?... Or maybe you are not a such a nice Christian... I mean, like, you know... How would you feel if someone snitched on your religious preference to the Antichrist himself?... Just a thought...

3. Wassup with 'em Muslims? You mean they just let the United Nations bulldoze the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque just so that Jews can build their holy temple on the Temple Mound? No suicide bombers? No planes flown into the New United Nations building? Where did you find these Muslims? 'Cuz you know, like, I wanna meet them too...

What is Yillian's Way?.......................  Must be a sequal to the original The Yillian Way.

Or... the people who created this rip off can't read the original and didn't care anyway.

While my expertise is silent film, anyone can look through the various reviews here on Amazon and find several inaccuracies about several stars...from what roles they did to how they died to where their buried!!!  Considering thats the point of this book it doesnt seem worth the money.

To add my own known inaccuracy in the Valentino chapter June Mathis is mentioned as dying in a fire.  WHERE the author got this I have no clue...she may not be heavily remembered but every and any simple source out there on here says she died of a heart attack while watching a Broadway play.  Did he just start making stuff up instead of googling?  Waste of time...

I just recieved this poster today and it looks like it was poorly done on someone's home printer, definitely looks bootleg, not something liscensed barely worth half the price!

Like another reviewer, I blame myself for not doing my due diligence before purchasing. I thought, too, "Same band name, same album title, same song list - must be the same." I'd been looking for a copy of the original Declaration on CD and it appears at around $96.99 (!!) on Amazon, so I thought they perhaps now have an alternate, affordable release. I was deceived and am consequently disappointed.

This is not the original band or the original arrangements. If you are looking for The Alarm of earlier days - Peters, Twist, Sharp, and Macdonald - look elsewhere. Mike and his friends & family have done well to make a respectable album here but I don't understand its true purpose. Editorial notes seem to point toward remaking the album for today's sound, to jump on the same bandwagon as Jack White, Mumford & Sons, etc., which flies in the face of the original band's originality and creativity. Is this album really just an attempt to cash in, using nostalgia (and ignorance, on my part) to wring more money out of songs that mean so much to so many?  If not, then why not at least TITLE it differently? What's so hard about something like "Declaration: 2014?"  Is the deception intentional? Perhaps naively, I expected more honesty and transparency from this group. The album may be musically solid, but it just doesn't sit well with me.

Mr. Waite is a good storyteller but the story has no originality.  It has been done over & over again by some other good storytellers.  It was worth reading but there was very little originality & very little tension - because it has all been done before.  I hope Mr. Waite has some ideas of his own & the ability to tell them because he knows how to word things & knows the formula.  It just needs some fresh air.  We all know most books have been done before & there are certain formulas that go into the many different subjects for books.  However, a really good writer will tell it his own way rather than following authors he admires.  I wish him much luck because he just might have what it takes.

It's "Grandmother and the priests"  so I'd pass on this obviously unauthorized Chinese forgery.  Although it might be worth a hoot just to see how badly misprinted it is.

This is a ridiculous copycat knock off of "On the Day You Were Born." For shame!

Dembski appears to be making a career of reshuffling previous contents and publishing them as new books. One might perhaps forgive this lack of originality if the contents were at least true. Unfortunately, the few bits of truth herein are used to paper over crumbling structures of non-sequiturs, misunderstandings, and misstatements -- the same hovels of fallacy and falsehood that had been previously published and thoroughly debunked, here presented again without any correction.

Why write or publish essentially the same book over and over, with different titles and covers? I suppose the answer is obvious, as long as customers keep buying it.

But then why *buy* the same book over and over? Unless one is supplying dummy books for the purely-decorative bookshelf market?

Or does someone hope to just stack the apparently-different books high to make the Intelligent Design movement seem productive of actual research, in the hope that no-one will open the pages and look inside?

This cover is a copy of Julia Spiri's image!

The cover states "Original Artist Recordings" by which they mean the original artists recorded the songs, but these are not the original hit recordings!

This entire series follows that of another writer!  After noticing so many similarities in the storyline of each book as it was released, the characters, plot and resolution in each one, I started looking at copyright and release dates.  The character names were different but many settings and storylines s are the same.  Except for the character names, a few details  and the use of cursing and some inappropriate, given the listing category, language,  the stories would be the same.  Possible for one book but not all in a series to be the same!

So, plagiarism or Fenris rewriting under different name using more explicit language to increase sales under another category and altering character names and locations to try and fool the reader?  If it wasn't happening with more than one other identified authors' books, I'd be more inclined to think a switcher but given it is happened with multiple books by different authors (if other reader reviews are accurate), the that seems more like too much of a coincidence.  I won't knowingly spend money to buy a book that is plagiarized.  So, what's the real story here with the authors?

I thought I was getting original recordings. Most, if not all, are not the originals. I didn't even listen to it all the way through once. On the shelf it went. Not happy!

Where are the novel takes on well-known legends and historical occurrences?? Where is anything but battle upon battle, in the most unlikely fiction I have read in a long time?? And with errors about common armaments! I bought the book ONLY because no library in my state would purchase a copy for circulation, and I was curious about this tale, as I read all of his others - I should have saved my money.
