    The Walking Dead - Season Two

    I haven't read the comic, but was pretty taken back by the whole "everyone becomes a zombie" reveal. My curiousity is peaked on the scientist conversation. I hope they don't tie up too many loose ends though. I like the fact that we don't know what happened to Michael Rooker or the father and...

    A-Team Season 5 is single-sided

    Season 5 seems to be the most "grown up" of the A-Team seasons. Its got over-arching plots, characters, and consequences. I may be in the minority, but I really liked the new direction the show took in its final year. Its a shame that the A-Team didn't go on longer. Some highlights in season 5...

    *** Official MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III Discussion Thread

    MI1: Suspense/Thriller MI2: Action Movie MI3: The Feel Good Romantic Comedy of the Year! Mixed emotions. It definitely had some good action scenes and suspense, but I feel that the movie copped out. Hunt essentially retiring from IMF and becoming domestic didn't sit too well with me for...

    Sayings or statements that don't make sense

    As stated before...You've got your work cut out for you! :rolleyes: If your work has been cut out, then you have no work. Go home! I understand the sweatshop explanation, but that doesn't make the expression any better.

    The Shield, season 3 (MERGED THREAD)

    Regarding the ending... When Tevon is on the pavement his body is visibly broken. His arm looks mangled and his foot is twisted backwards. If he isn't dead, he's definitely out of action for a while. The previews for next week show Shane bruised up from the fight. I wonder how he's going...

    The Shield, season 3 (MERGED THREAD)

    I think this is my favorite episode of Season 3 so far. The dynamic between the Strike Team and the Decoy Squad is good. Mackey seems to be getting along a little too well with Acaveda & Claudette. Something's going to explode, and soon. And Connie's hooker friend coming to Mackey for help...

    Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan - Mistake?

    First off, Nick Meyer loves to quote this kind of stuff. (Old Vulcan proverb: Only Nixon could go to China, anyone?) Secondly, I have a book about Wrath of Khan (Biographies I think) and it explains several discontinuities in the same fashion as stated above. Khan did extensive reading when...

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (Recommended)

    I bought mine at Best Buy. It came in what appeared to be a standard double-alpha case, until I opened it. The inside is similar to the clamshell cases that used to hold those old "Movie CD" VCDs that the computer stores used to sell. The discs were stacked nearly on top of one another. I've...

    Conan Franchise Edition

    Is this a new edition or just a repackaging of the previous Barbarian and Destroyer?

    Adventures of Ford Fairlane and Buffy Season Six!?

    Just as an update, Ford Fairlane is apparently doing pretty well for a $9.99 catalog title. DVD Empire is sold out of these puppies, and it's current sales rank is #4!

    The Matrix Revolutions (2003)

    Like others, I had some problems with certain plot threads not being resolved. Here are some speculations/impressions based on my viewing of the final film. 1) The Merovingian was the first "One." This is why his wife knows so much about Trinity's love for Neo. She once experienced that...

    Best Buy bonus disc with DS9 season 6?

    Bought season 6 at Best Buy this afternoon and it does indeed have a bonus disc. The DVD contains 3 new documentaries: Inside "One Little Ship", Ferengi Rules of Acquisition: The Beginning, and Ferengi Rules of Acquisition: The Sequel. Not sure if they'll send you the disc or not, but it...

    SmallVille 10-21-03

    One, two, Freddy's coming for you... Am I the only person who had Nightmare On Elm Street flashbacks while watching this episode? Lex's favorite Kirosawa film is Throne of Blood! :D
