A space-western with a motley down-and-out crew struggling on the edge of a semi-dystopian planet-spanning civilization.

Easily one of the best television shows I’ve ever seen. I don’t just consider this mandatory, I will dog people to watch it. I bought two copies of this series just to give one away.

Let me stress this. This is a series so good that even after cancellation there was enough popularity to produce a movie. A movie for a cancelled series. The only one I’ve ever heard of. Serenity – (2005 movie) is itself mandatory viewing for those who have enjoyed Firefly.

Mandatory viewing. I have been brought to tears more than once.

Vampires and lichen lychen lycan werewolves continue their centuries-long war, but the werewolves seek to gain the upper hand in hunting down a particular human.

A great movie which would be well-loved except for the unexplained, unnecessary and horrifying coloured contacts and occasional plot holes. Oh, and a more convincing main bad guy. Hot actors and convincing characters.. that about sums up my expectations for bubblegum action movies like this.

  • I have two versions, but I seem to have misplaced one. =(

The Mummy Returns (2001) poster

Visions of a past life lead a woman to an ancient treasure, but it is also sought by others to both raise the dead and an army.

While it would be unfair to say this movie stinks, it’s not great.

The computer graphics used in it are uncanny and intrusive. It has action for action’s sake, and while a light bubblegum movie is what it is, this movie lays it on intentionally thick, making it aggravating. Fans of its predecessor, The Mummy – (1999 movie), will find the feelings instilled by it are not reproduced in this sequel. It’s also jarringly-unoriginal by stealing components from the first.

This it is an obvious money-grab.

Doom II

  • aka Doom II: Hell on Earth

  1. Doom – (1993 game)
  2. Doom II – (1994 game)

The last level from Doom 2 has a certain sound which I’ve heard in movies. Perhaps it came from somewhere else, but I’m forever calling it the Doom sound.
