Like it!.......2007-07-08

This is really not my favorite of the MLP shows, but I enjoy it since it's a good story and it's well animated (apart from the part where the ponies gets the wrong colors)
The movie is both funny and there's some scary parts to keep the pace going.

So glad i found it!!!.......2007-06-27

Movie was brand new....still in celophane. Was a movie i remember watching from my childhood and now i have it for my children to enjoy!!

The Classic MLP!.......2007-05-30

I purchased MLP Season 1 and the movie was considered the first 5 episodes. I remember watching this when I was a kid and now have something that I can pass on that was "classic". The animation is a little off, just for the reason that it's older and it was out before digital animation became available. Although, I would have loved to have seen them put this out on DVD digitally remastered. Unfortunately, they did not, so we are forced to deal with the sometimes choppy animation.

Despite the fact that some of the ponies acted stubborn and bratty, they all come together in the end and make an example of what positive thinking and working together can do. Despite it's age, I would recommend that anyone who has a little girl, or was a little girl in the 80's watch this movie! I LOVE the MLP movie!!

Very cute!.......2007-05-14

Very cute, clean movie. Perfect for little kids, especially if they like ponies. The DVD itself played well on our standard DVD player and TV. Keep in mind, it's the original cast from the early 80's, not the new cast/story lines and the sound/graphics are as expected for the time.

Good movie for young kids.......2007-04-05

My 2-year old daughter loves "My Little Pony" toys, and she loves this movie too (when she saw the box, she said "Pone! Pone!" - she can't quite say Pony yet). The only problem with this movie is that the picture quality is kind of grainy by today's standards; many other movies made in the 80's that have been converted to DVD have been cleaned up better than this. Thankfully, 2-year olds don't care about the quality of the picture! This is one that gets watched over and over (and over... and over). Recommended.

Small, short but heartwarming!.......2006-08-09

"It's not the 1979, so I just hate it because I ordered the wrong one!" Urrgh!

This version of the classic Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale was produced by Diane Eskenazi and distributed by the unpopular GoodTimes Entertainment studio. "The Little Mermaid" (1992) follows the adventures of a sweet, fun-loving little sea girl named Lena, who after a visit to the above world, falls deeply in love with Prince Stefan. Lena then visits the wicked sea-witch Cassandra, who in exchange for Lena's enchanting voice, gives the little mermaid legs to walk on land, warning her that if Prince Stefan were to marry someone other than her, then would Lena be turned into seafoam for all time. Lena then is able to walk on land and when Prince Stefan meets the girl, he too falls in love, unfortunatelly, trouble comes for Lena when Princess Anna is then pressured by her father to marry Stefan.

Like in many other Disney and GoodTimes films, a few sidekicks are added for comic relief and to add a sense of friendship and companionship into the movie; Bink, the dolphin, is Lena's best friend, but at the same time is an important character in the story. Animation quality does not live up to Disney's standards, being a bit rougher and less realistic, but nothing that would make a child enjoy this any less than a Disney film, after all, this films are meant for children and adults viewing should take that into consideration before bashing it. Music, as in many other GoodTimes releases is one of the strengths in this film. Golden Films (The producers) has always done a good job of selecting music for their films, rather than creating a brand new musical soundtrack, timeless classical pieces are added by some of the best and most famous composers of all time. One lovely, original song is included in the opening and instrumentally reprised later on in the film, that song is called "The World Above" in which the singer steps into Lena's "shoes" and dreams of life by her prince on land.

This film is somewhat hard to find offline, for not many stores carry GoodTimes' line of Collectible Classics. However, finding it online at a price of about $5.95 should be no real challenge. One of the best things about these children's films is that, being so cheap, a small child might just save up to buy them on their own. Overall, memorable and heartwarming Golden Films/GoodTimes fair, I'd recommend it to the very young and the very young at heart.

is NOT the 1979 version.......2004-09-16

For those who thought they were looking for the touching story of a mermaid's ultimate sacrifice, this ain't it! This is the worst animation I've ever seen.

Horrible!.......2003-12-10

( I'm 17 but thissite wouldn't let me review unless I'm a member, I'm not a member my mom is, so I had to resort to putting my review in this way!^-^;)

Ugh! I really did not enjoy this movie at all. Bad animation, really bad acting, did I mention that I didn't like it? The reason why this even got a star is because it did a better job at sticking to the real story ( a lot was still changed though).
Disney's movie is much much better even though it changed the story even more than this movie did and the anime is supposed to be really good too (made in 1979 and is the closest to the original story than the other two are.)
My recommendations: Watch Disney's version,then the anime version(if you can find it), and then read the original story. After that, if you're still curious about this one, go ahead and watch it. You may like it, I don't know cause I'm not you, but I know I didn't like it!
Thanks for lisening to my little rant, hoped it helped you. ^-^

Childhood Memories.......2002-07-31

As some folk have mentioned, this *is* the version from the late seventies/early eighties that may have frightened and enchanted you or your children. It's an honest, heart-wrenching animated film that ends with a glimmer of hope. Far deeper than the Disney version, treat yourself and/or your children to this beautiful and meaningful story.

Its the best.......2000-05-07

This is my favorite re-telling of the Little Mermaid [I've seen 3 diffrent vertions]Leana the little mermaid wants to meet a hansome prince and to the surprise of her talking pet dolphin Binks she does and shes in love prince Stephen so she make a deal with Casandra the sea witch trading her voice for a pair of legs,and meets two birds Cecil and Claudia,then... well see for your self.

MY LITTLE PONY.......2006-08-22

THE DVD WAS IN GOOD SHAPE, UNOPENED,SCRATCH FREE. MY GRANDDTR. IS ENJOYING IT VERY MUCH. IT'S A JOY TO BRING THESE SHOWS BACK TO LIFE FOR A YOUNGER GENERATION.

PARENTAL ADVISORY: NATURE WORSHIP & EVIL CHARACTERS.......2006-07-23

We shut this show off within the 1st 10-15 minutes. Wow. First of all there are witches. Then the ponies have pyramids with "all-seeing" eyes on them where they live. Then they start a celebration where the sun shines through the clouds, shines on a jewel in the middle of the pyramids (kind of like a stonehenge ritual?), start singing a "nature worship/loving" song. Then the head witch looks at pictures of her ancestors on the walls that are long since deceased and asks them to come back and help her, they started coming back to life and stepping out of their paintings. This is where we shut it off and said NO MORE!

Terrible!.......2006-04-17

I saw the MLP movie and then I got this and was shocked. The witches have the stupidest voices ever! The original voices were SO much better. Even I can do the voices from the REAL movie. Also, the animation has TOO MANY GLITCHES!!!

Pretty Much the Best Ever.......2006-04-12

You can't beat My Little Pony. It's pretty much the best series ever for little girls. It is TRUE that this DVD is part of the Season 1 DVD, but if you are just looking for a good DVD to give to your two-six year old daughters, look no more! This has everything - good vs. evil, singing, and magic. The plot is GREAT for anyone with half a mind! The Little Ponies have to rescue the Sunstone from Bumble (Who has stolen it from the Flutter Ponies) before Flutter Valley becomes a wasteland. In their struggle to defeat the Witches the Ponies learn about friendship, loyaltly, teamwork, and sharing. They learn that good will always triumph over evil in the end. The Ponies are bright and beautiful, and, unlike most children's TV programming today, My Little Pony won't treat your kids like they are mindless, weak, retarded zombies.

That said, if your kid seriously gets scared from watching My Little Pony there is a serious problem in the home. I watched this series as young as two years old and had NO PROBLEMS whatsoever! That's the problem in America. We are raising a generation of weak-ass wimps. It's almost like Cobra Commander really did take over the TV stations (remember that episode of GI Joe people?).

If you want some "Educational" bullcrap for your kids to watch, don't buy this DVD. We wouldn't want them to grow up to be able to think. If you want weak-ass kids, keep them tuned onto Nick Jr. or the Little Einsteins and don't even bother tainting the good name of My Little Pony.

If you want your kids to have creativity and imagination, (which, I might add, is what stimulates intelligence) then buy this DVD for your daughter and let her enjoy! Not everything has to be educational, in fact, it's good for kids to just have fun and use their imagination! If you are a person who doesn't want your child to ever be exposed to anything "evil", just save your money. Poor kid.

I'd bet ten to one that these negative reviews about "OMG my daughter heard numb-skull!" etc... are from Christians. Good gracious people.

My Little Ponies are great for little girls.......2006-03-17

The fact that adults are sitting around contemplating whether or not this video is fit for children is ridiculous. This video talks about playing with others, teamwork, and is a fun entertainment experience for children. If you are one of those that goes overboard on analyzing videos, this might not be for you. But if you love your children, and want them to enjoy themselves this is a good movie. If you are price concious though, you can buy the entire first season for a cheaper price.

Appauling.......2006-03-15

Wrong version, was searching for an older version where the little mermaid dies. This is not that version!!!!

Shame on Amazon

Not the real deal!.......2006-02-07

If you sre looking for the Anime style Little mermaid, The one with the sad ending, please note that this is not it! Now I havent seen this film but I'm sure it's fine lust not the one most people are looking for. The origanal in DVD format has a realy stupid cover but some nice person gave a few captures so I am sure that it's the one you're looking for. The cover is mainly blue with a blond haired mermaide who looks nouthing like Merina playing with some fish. The titel on the top of the page reads 'The Little Mermaid (UAV Corporation) (2000)' and if you look at the extra pics someone put up and reed the revews you'll not make the mistake of buying the wrong film. Hope this helps good luch!

Not very pleased........2005-08-27

The movie is quite short, has a happy ending, and an enviromental message. Nothing really seems to pace well, the animation is choppy, and the voices are not what I would call enjoyable. This is more chopped up then the Disney version, and much sappier. I perfer the Little Mermaid (UAV Corporation) version MUCH better, ASIN: B00005QW6Q

Dont' let the crummy box art fool you; the UAV version is a vintage animation with delightful animation and the original ending.

Not what I expected.......2005-07-08

This was one of the first things I ordered through Amazon, and I guess being new I was naive. I was expecting the Disney version and got the Hans Christian Anderson version and there is a world of difference. I felt it was my fault and did not send it back. It came in a timely manner and was in perfect condition.

I didn't recieve the original.......2004-12-06

I bought this because the reviews visible at the time said that this was the original animated version - the one with the sad ending.

The first thing I did when I got the movie was skip to the end to see if it was the right version. It's not. The mermaid and the prince get married, and the king makes a little speech about ending evil pollution.

It's probably a good movie, but I'm so disappointed that it's not the one I was hoping and searching for that I can't bring myself to watch it.

Little Witch is a unique witch who simply wants to make friends and live a relatively normal life. Unfortunately, Little Witch's mother and three aunts do not share her vision of the future. Based on the books by Deborah Hautzig, Little Witch revolves around the premise that it's okay to be different. When Little Witch moves to a new neighborhood, the local kids are understandably wary. On Halloween night, Little Witch demonstrates her inherent goodness and secures a trio of pals, including a coveted "bestest" friend. Appropriate for even the most timid children because "slipped, slidy, buttery bean, not all witches have to be mean." (Ages 4 to 8) --Tami Horiuchi
