• The Slim Shady Show | DVD | (01/09/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Multi-Platinum rap phenomenon Eminem assumes his alter ego Slim Shady to unleash his most provocative personality to date in a hilarious and surreal expose of todays pop culture. Enter the animated world of 'Slim Shady' and his crew featuring the naive high school underdog Marshall the devious fashion fiend Ken Keniff Slim's most loyal smoked-out disciple Dave and the muscle bound outspoken Big D who feels it's his duty to beat up on every over-hyped celebrity that crosses his path. The Slim Shady show has already become a feature of Eminem's live performances throughout the UK and includes episodes such as: The Party Crashers Slimshank Redemption Moviestar Marshall Dyke Hills Mall and the brand new exclusive The Ass And The Curious. Slim Shady is without doubt the flyest and most self-promoting homeboy in town...

  The first time that the opening episode of Slim Shady Version II was shown to the public as a prelude to Eminem's live set on the Anger Management tour in America, it received critical acclaim. The point was clear, ran the consensus: by juxtaposing cartoon images of his split personality alongside South Park characters, Marshall Mathers was querying why their anti-social behaviour is satire and his is offensive. More episodes then turned up on the Web leading MTV to commission these nine five-minute shorts in which Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers run around taking drugs, swearing, attempting to have sex and beating up pop stars such as N'Stink and Pristina Gagulera. Sadly, those kind of lame puns are about as funny as it gets. A typical scene runs like this: the boys spot Matt Damon and Ben Affleck and they beat them up. That's it. Worse still, any sense of characterisation that places in context the anger and prejudice of Eminem's recorded work is lost here, leaving dumb and rather ugly misogyny to stand alone. A brief documentary about the making of the shorts is equally as grim and proves that cartoons really shouldn't be made by people with no sense of humour.--Ian Watson

  For every adult who is still at war with his inner child comes Lil' Pimp a daringly original and irreverent adult comedy the first full-length motion picture to be shot in the revolutionary Flash animation process. The little boy just doesn't seem to fit in at home in squeaky-clean suburbia. His only friend is foul-mouthed talking gerbil Weathers (Ludacris). Then one day by accident he runs into a dazzling 'ho Sweet Chiffon (Lil' Kim) who takes him to a bar called Playground a hip-hop wonderland where he befriends master pimp Fruit Juice (Bernie Mac) and is introduced to the world of pimping. There's no place like the Playground and Lil' Pimp calls it home. But his new life and the lives of his beloved 'hos and pimps are endangered by the machinations of the city's scheming duplicitous mayor Tony Gold (William Shatner). Unless Gold can be exposed for the rat that he is the Playground and the ghetto surrounding it will be transformed into a toxic golf course. And Lil' Pimp will be forced to return to the horrors of life in suburbia!
