[.ca] Lilo And Stitch: Read-Alongs



From Amazon.com:
The DVD read-along version of Lilo & Stitch grabs attention with almost too many cool features to collapse into a manageable bite. For starters, you'll need to find your way around a screenful of flags. Feeling unambitious? Listen and read along with the English narration, featuring the original movie voices of Ving Rhames and Tia Carrera. Up for a challenge? Flex your foreign-language muscles with the Spanish, French, German, or Italian versions. Then you're free to follow a condensed account of the spunky Hawaiian orphan girl who unknowingly adopts an alien. Future MTV addicts will want to skip forward to the music videos (the A*Teens' "Can't Help Falling in Love" and a children's chorus rendition of "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride"), while gamers will go for the feature that reinvents the remote as a joystick. The song section parades lyrics along the screen (take your pick of languages), and the vocabulary area allows for slipping in and out of foreign tongues while learning words like "ohana" (family). Two other options, "Search the Web" and "The Magical World of Disney," aren't much more than commercials, but if you like movie trailers, click away. Lilo represents a new, bookletless breed of read-along, but, for technophobes, it's comforting to know that its volcano of options isn't about to blow. Sparing yourself a DVD lava bath of bells and whistles is as simple as sidestepping a flag or two. -- Tammy La Gorce


Lilo & Stitch:
It's simply wonderful! I can enjoy the soundtracks with my little sons. The story is single an fun. It has a love and familiar union messages.


Good DVD!:
This disc has a story, 2 songs, 2 music videos, a vocabulary section, a handful of preveiws, a game, and 2 computer web links. The story is the same as the regular CD read-along, but I think it's funny to hear them speak other languages. There are 2 songs from the movie, "He Mele No Lilo" and "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride", to sing along with. The 2 music videos are the A*Teens "I Can't Help Falling in Love With You" and "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride." The vocabulary section is educational because you can learn beach-related words in 5 languages. (Swimmerifen, ha ha!) The previews are previews, what more can I say. The game isn't very hard, so it will be easy for littler kids. (I, being 12, didn't enjoy it that much.) I can make no comment on the web-links, because I can't do them on my computer. Well, MY favorite part was the sing alongs, and the "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride" music video, though there was a preview of a computer game I particularly enjoyed. All in all, this is good for Lilo & Stitch fans of all ages. (Save the ones that only liked it for the Elvis music)
