Soldier Boyz (1995)
sooo bad.... its ...worse then anything
The people who think this is a good movie is why the Internet sucks. Ignoring the plot holes, the nonsensical story and ridiculous fight scenes the acting alone should have had this movie canned before it was ever released.
The dirty dozen was an actually good movie. It starts with the premise that they use criminal soldiers. NOT JUST STREET THUG CRIMINALS. The dirty dozen actually were soldier who served in war time, not gangbangers who don't even know how to shoot a gun. But on top of the semi-plausible, but hooky plot in the Dirty Dozen, they decided to use real actors.
The fact that good films never get made and someone spends money on movies like this is the worst atrocity committed by this film.
If you just want to see some teen thugs shoot guns, badly, and see out of place and ridiculous explosions then this movie may be for you.
Firefly (2002)
Yet another casualty to Fox's mission:
That mission:
To create great shows and then destroy them. Case in point , Firefly, Andy Richter controls the Universe, and Futurama.
If only Joss held a little more sway with Fox this show would have made it the full 7 seasons.
It has great characters, but even more importantly, the plots and subplots are beautifully put together. True they are slightly formulaic. The crew has a plan, the plan goes horribly wrong. The crew pulls through by their loyalty to each other and determination to keep Serenity flying.
But nevertheless, it was amazing. I never saw it when it was on the air, since Fox portrayed it as some weird action show, with a hooker. Plus they decided to also play the episodes out of order. This show has continuity, and you can't do something like that if you want the show to survive.
I was skeptical at first, but then my friend would go on and on about how great it was. I watched Serenity and was hooked, I then proceeded to watch all 14 episodes over 3 days. And then later I watched them again and then I bought the box set. It was that good.
Stay tuned for the full feature film from Universal Pictures this September '05! It titled Serenity.... Browncoats lets get this movie some buzz.
Square One TV (1987)
Square One Rocks!!!
This was such a great show. I don't know a single mathamagician or engineer that didn't watch this show growing up. Along with 3-2-1 Contact! this show was the epoch of PBS educational programming.
Mathman....Mathman....Mathman......
True it would be too hooky and not enough special effect and too much intelligence to make it on TV now, but it was soo good.
I still can hear the theme song playing in my head when ever I do math. Which is a bit to often sometimes.
Please who ever made the show put out a box-set. If not for todays kids who need something more then 5 second sound bytes of learning, but for those of us who grew up watching this spectacular show. Then again if I saw it for the first time now I would probably think it sucks.....
What the #$*! Do We (K)now!? (2004)
Pretty good.... for a cult recruitment movie!!!!
WTF? Anyone who views this movie with the thought it has anything but a tangential connection to quantum physics is either already a cult member. Or hasn't had a science class since high school.
This movie is string or never ending, boring diatribes by so called experts, who the movie hides their identities until the very end. With good reason.. One is a defrocked priest who molested his seminarians. One scientist is a self deluded chiropractor. One of this is a TV psychic channeling a 3000 year old Atlantian warrior goddess. Along with some physicist thrown in. But if you actually watch the movie you see the physicists arn't the ones making any crack pot assertions that we can mental "create the world around us".
Super-position does not mean we can pick our reality!!!!!
10.5 (2004)
Truly awful. Someone at NBS should be beaten for this.
Wow. This movie had every stupid end of the world cliche. On top of the stereotypical the 4 main characters have to do everything thing. From the director of FEMA having to over see a drilling operation to having to arm a nuclear bomb. WHEN HES SURROUNDED BY MILITARY PERSONNEL!!! And of course the single, self-centered, self-righteous, doctor, who is the only one who knows anything. On top of that a grad student in geology that has no clue what a seismograph is or knows anything about earthquakes. HOW THE HECK DID SHE GET IN GRAD SCHOOL!
Wow its bad. The acting was awful, and every 5 seconds they add a new sub-plot. They should really beat the crap out of who ever made this movie and thought it would be good.
