I think of him as a DS9 character more than I think of him as a TNG character. He was a larger presence on DS9, and that was by design. Besides, I just like DS9 more. But I'm a TOS fan first and foremost.

Seeing Chief O'Brien from DS9 as a bad guy blew my mind.

He stopped off at I, Robot and Knowing. As much as I love Dark City, it's the odd man out. Not the other way around.

Sure was! Boris Karloff is a legend.

I'm going to be 29 in 48 hours. Top that!

Airplane > The Naked Gun > The Naked Gun 2 >> Airplane 2 >>>> The Naked Gun 3. I watch and enjoy all but that last one to varying degrees. The ball was definitely dropped on the last Naked Gun.

Everybody do the zombie stomp!

Horror of Party Beach is a wonderful schlocky good time, both on MST3K and on its own. I own copies of both versions. Consider that a positive review, though I do not expect Rotten Tomatoes to count it.

For the longest time I remembered liking Evolution, then I watched it again and realized I'd really been thinking of "Eight Legged Freaks" (another early 00's creatures run amuck in the desert flick), which is a legit underrated fun B-movie. Evolution has a solid cast and a fun concept, but dies a hard death right…

It came out just as I was getting ready to graduate high school, and I had been a die-hard fan of the book series (mostly the first two) and the radio drama (which I had on cassette, even in the mid 90s) since my third grade teacher had introduced me to it. I was floored that there was going to be a big budget movie…

The original series seemed kind of banal when I tried to watch it. The first movie was just bananas enough to remain watchable (and a supporting cast of Sam Rockwell, Tim Curry, Luke Wilson and Bill Murray helped). The sequel was just awful. I have the feeling I've seen enough Charlie's Angels already for one…

Saw this last night, loved it. Any movie that has Adam Scott, Michael Dougherty doing a holiday horror and an obvious Joe Dante/Gremlins inspiration is automatically right up my alley.

The biggest difference is that Rick Berman had the studio to answer to at all times, such as when they demanded another Trek series (Voyager) RIGHT AWAY to launch their shiny new television station UPN, when Rick Berman rather correctly wanted to devote his full attention to the film series and Deep Space Nine. UPN…

Being a much bigger fan of Guillermo Del Toro's work than Peter Jackson's, can I just say that I am glad he did not have to waste any more time on this series than he did?

There are plenty of gruesome moments in Star Wars, and I'm not arguing that it should be lighter on the whole (like many, I enjoy the darkest entry, Empire, the most), but it seems maybe a bit too dark to have an innocent looking slave character get torn apart by an underground beast for (apparently) trying to avoid…

Here's a maybe odd choice that always bugged the hell out of me as a kid: the genuinely sadistic death of the alien dancer at the beginning of Return of the Jedi. It always bummed me out too much and made me want to stop watching the film. I mean, I get that it's supposed to make us really hate Jabba the Hutt and make…

Good news as far as I'm concerned, the last one was great. They should bring everyone back.

I wouldn't call myself a music nerd, but the fact that the iTunes store kept causing my computer to crash was reason enough for me to stop using it. I suppose there's probably a solution to this odd behavior, but I don't think I care enough about iTunes to go looking for it.

God's Not Dead 2: Not Dead By Dawn

The Star Wars prequels have never had my hate. They have my apathy. If you put one on and I was in the room doing something else, I might occasionally glance at the screen with an annoyed grimace. Put on, let's say, one of those Michael Bay Transformers movies and I'd go put my foot through the screen. So, that's my…
