Rambo: Animated Series, Vol. 2 - Enter the Dragon

I was THRILLED to see this as well as some of my other 80's favorites hit DVD (i.e., Voltron, Transformers, MOTU).... I had recorded about 6 of the original Rambo episodes back when they originally aired on VHS. Needless to say, the quality was terrible, barely viewable and I really was discouraged when I thought that I would never see these or any other episodes again.The episodes are like any other in a series-some of them are fantastic and action packed, while others you wonder if they had someone's 10 year old come up with the script and dialog ideas. But in all fairness no show I have ever seen, animated or not, was 100% entertaining, 100% of the time.My only real disappointment was the fact that they only cleaned up some of the episodes. Not sure how one episode was picked over another, perhaps they were "fan favorites", and they only had a limited budget. But having them on DVD, well can't and shouldn't complain.Thanks guys at Lions Gate for releasing them! :-)

This is a great cartoon to have in your collection. Not only is the voice of Rambo by Neil Ross (Lion-o of the Thundercats cartoon series) but it is a great action cartoon. the thing i like most about this series is that when Rambo fires his weapons actual bullets are being fired, not lasers as most other cartoons. The only thing bad about this cartoon release is that the episodes are not in the correct order of television release but if you can get a episode list, you could watch them in the correct order. Other than that, this is a great dvd.

Rambo and the Force of Freedom fights against the S.A.V.A.G.E. evil forces led by General Warhawk and his hechmen who tries to impose their will and control different countries in the world.The Pentagon has Colonel Samuel Trautman and the Force of Freedom in charge of dealing with all situations that compromizes the world's peace.Expert mechanic Turbo,master of disguise Kat and ninja White Dragon helps Rambo on his tasks against Sgt. Havoc and an all sort of villanins and mercenaries.I used to watch this when I was a kid and I like it.Graphic violence is show but noone is hurt(audiencies are 5 and up).Overall a great entertainment.

I watched this today and I loved it

Recommend!

Gather `round the ol' DVD player and get ready for a second batch of random Rambo episodes from our friends at Lions Gate. Everybody loves ninjas, and this collection is chock-full of ninja action...along with a few pirates, a magician, and a voodoo priestess thrown in for good measure. What's more, Transformers fans will enjoy hearing the voice of legendary Autobot leader Optimus Prime (Peter Cullen) during several of these Rambo adventures. This thrill-packed potpourri includes episodes 20, 41, 19, 35, 49, 57, 24, 28, 44, 23, and 5 from the classic animated series. It does NOT include episode 4, `Raise the Yamato', as the back of the case incorrectly states. Unfortunately, Volume 2 suffers from some much more noticeable video abnormalities than Volume 1, the worst of which being the persistent flickering of some nasty horizontal lines across the screen during the first half of `Mephisto's Magic.' It's enough to make you exclaim (as Turbo does in episode 23), "My stomach feels like it just crossed the Atlantic with Columbus!" Well, at least the background music (from composer Jerry Goldsmith) is always present, which is more than I can say for `Thundercats Season One Volume One'...but I digress. Will you enjoy Rambo Volume 2 in spite of its flaws?--Count on it! `Cause any disc featuring a scene in which twin ninjas do battle on top of a moving van is a must have; and any cartoon featuring a heavily-armed character named Mad Dog who zooms around on a motorcycle shouting things like, "Let's hit `em with lead `til they're good and dead," has GOT to be cool! But Rambo is educational too, and I'll prove it by closing this review with what I like to call...RAMBO's Words of Wisdom:"Civilization has its advantages, but if it weren't for the wilderness what good would it be?""A brother's love is a precious and sacred trust.""Doing my job well is its own reward.""Parents are a lot more forgiving than most kids think.""Just because somebody tells you something doesn't mean it's true. You always have to check the facts for yourself.""Smoke isn't as dense near the floor.""Voodoo is nothing but a lot of hocus-pocus.""Dogs can be a good judge of bad people.""Bullies must be stopped--no matter who they are, or what the cost.""It all comes down to teamwork--no matter what you're doin'.""Freedom is the one gift that's for all or none."
