I've never understood the admiration some have for Fett--I mean in V and VI all he does is track down the Millenium Falcon and then get eaten by the Sarnac or whatever it is. Which I thought was a dumb concept anyway. As for Episode I, I thought it was too silly to really enjoy. The pod race was ba...

Land and Diary were both dire, pathetic characters that I didn't care about and generally poor all around films - I am a massive fan of GAR's zombie films, I own the best DVD editions available of all of his zombie flicks (even Land and Diary). But there is no getting away from the fact that he just...

Vallejo's work is too precise, too perfect, for me anyway, Frazetta had a way of convincing me with imperfection, his naked girls had little tummies, and over exagerated curves, his violence expressed on the faces of his characters with a tangible texture, ... time to stop or I will blather on to n...

Re: The King of Covers
All this time, and Frank Frazetta is still king. The only illustrator who ever inspired me to read something because of the picture on the cover. I was lucky enough as a boy to inherit my uncles collection of paper backs. He also was a Frazetta fan and he had an entire shelf of books by different a...

The Roland ending worked for me, he would have to do it all again, but this time, he had the Horn of Elde on his belt when he started out, so there is hope for him, and his entire quest could be radically different next time around. The susanah, eddie and jake as his kid brother ending was bad, real...

I would've liked to have seen a confrontation between Adama and Tyrol. Me too! Or something , anyway. Good call on Elosha, too. We have yet to learn the truth of the opera house, or the significance of the shared vision. I am also going to say that the prophecy has not been fulfilled. I can't remem...

It will suck, there's no way around it. It'd take 4-5 seasons of a show to tell the story, and that's not gonna happen. What he said. These are seven epic novels (I just got all 7 in audiobook format, half way through book 5 at the moment), bringing the entire story to screen in a way that did it j...

When I first heard that the wise-cracking Will Smith was cast as the main role in this movie, I was outraged and disgusted...the fact is though, his performance was pretty damn fantastic IMO. I enjoyed this movie a Hell of lot more than I thought, so much so, that I bought the special edition DVD wi...

As others have said, The Black Hole was a very dark movie for a Disney production, I keep meaning to grab it on DVD.
As for the soundtrack, there is a bootleg CD, might be worth a look on ebay...

Cmon! Galactica falling almost to the surface and jumping out. Badass!) I think they wanted to get us back into the old Rhythm. Just one horribly worn down Battlestar protecting humanity, looking for Earth. Trust me, Season three cooks up one of the most stunning finales I have ever experienced. (E...
