    The 4400

    The thought occurred to me as well, but I think that after a certain number of years (depending on the state) your nearest living relative (your spouse, if you are married) can have you legally declared dead. If that is what happened (and the spouse subsequently remarried), then one would...

    Fahrenheit 9/11 (SPOILERS)

    Not only that, these two potheads I know have come out to condemn his misuse of the English language. Can it get any worse when stoners think you're murdering the English language?

    The 4400

    Spoilers . . . . . . . . . . . . USA promoted the hell out of this series, so I was really looking forward to it. After watching the two-hour premiere, I don't quite know what to make of it. I couldn't help but be reminded of Taken, Rising Stars, Close Encounters ... etc, but there was enough...

    Fahrenheit 9/11 (SPOILERS)

    I really didn't want to comment on this film until I saw it and I just got back from the theatre tonight. All I can say is that you don't really "watch" this film so much as "experience" it. Fahrenheit has a much different feel to it(at least to me) than Roger & Me, The Big One, and even...

    AFI 100 Songs

    Yeah, that bothered me a little bit, but this list was mainly just about showtunes and musicals. Who picks the stuff for these lists anyway? I keep imagining a room full of 60-something white dudes smoking cigars in a small room somewhere.

    AFI 100 Songs

    That was a cool song, I have to give you that. What those blaxploitation flicks lacked in cinematic creativity, they more than made up for in music.

    Speculation: What would JMS Star Trek be like?

    True, you can't confuse Starfleet with the Federation but I still think there is something eerie about how perfect the Federation seems ... hardly no war, barely no disease, no hunger, no struggles, no money, no real need to work ... I'm sorry, but there's something sinister about that to me...

    Speculation: What would JMS Star Trek be like?

    There would definitely be a more in depth examination of the characters. I would gamble that every major character you'd see in the first season would be completely different at the end. I'd also bet that JMS would delve into the shady side of the federation/starfleet. Y'know, like its a...

    Enterprise: "Countdown"

    Re: Enterprise: \"Countdown\" Yeah, but that's not exactly the same thing as watching it with your own two eyes. You're still making judgments on something that you've never seen. No, all it takes is turning the channel to a UPN affiliate on Wed. night. I'm sure you do know, once you...

    Enterprise: "Countdown"

    Re: Enterprise: \"Countdown\" From you. How can you argue that Breman is ruining everything that Trek stands for if you aren't watching what he's putting out? If you intend on backing up that claim with facts, then logically you would have to watch it fairly regularly. If you don't watch it...

    Enterprise: "Countdown"

    Re: Enterprise: \"Countdown\" Why are you blaming Ant? You're the one that has the major problem with Berman but you religiously watch everything he puts out. If that's not the definition of an enabler, I don't know what is.

    Enterprise: "Countdown"

    Re: Enterprise: \"Countdown\" Trek is ruining our lives ... Damn you Star Trek! Damn you to hell!

    Enterprise: "Countdown"

    Re: Enterprise: \"Countdown\" Mine too ... he's the only character that the writers haven't screwed up. That, and I just love Beagles.

    Enterprise: "Countdown"

    Re: Enterprise: \"Countdown\" Oh well, so much for the hope that they would move away from time travel next season.

    Alexander Trailer

    I'm straight, but I think I know where you're coming from. It wasn't until I reached junior high that I discovered that Africa offered more to world history than a bunch of savages running around with spears and that was only because I had the curiosity to learn more than what they were dishing...

    Alexander Trailer

    I'm a history buff and I've always found Alexander fascinating. With that said, however, I've always wanted to see a film done on Hannibal... as far as pure spectacle goes, you can't beat crossing the Alps with a herd of elephants. The Battle of Cannae would be spectacular on film.

    Angel end ep [spoilers! no spoiler warnings = ban]

    Re: Angel I agree with you wholeheartedly about Buffy -- (because it seemed to me that Whedon simply turned over the reigns to Marti Noxon and no longer gave a damn) -- but this last season of Angel was one of its best.

    Just how similar are DS9 and B5?

    Jeez, I used to think that JFK was the story that wouldn't go away. Long story short: Either you believe that DS9 ripped off B5 or you don't ... there's really no in-between. Those that believe what they believe aren't going to be talked out of it no matter how much "evidence" you throw out...

    "Today we lost Richard Biggs"

    Re: \"Today we lost Richard Biggs\" According to IMDB, he was only 43 years old ... still a young man in my book. I still think his character arc of Dr. Franklin dealing with stem addiction one of the best performances in the series. My prayers will go out to his loved ones.

    Enterprise: "Countdown"

    Re: Enterprise: \"Countdown\" I agree with you there. It doesn't get any better than when time travel is done well -- B5 is probably the best example of that (at least on tv). My only complaint about time travel (other than when its written badly) is when it's overused to the point that it...
