    National Treasure...

    to me as well National Treasure struck me the same as U-571. Hollywood trying to rewrite history. Diane Kruger is hot in this film more so than in the "other" movie. Certainly saved the film in my opinion.

    Revenge of the Sith - A Review/Opinion

    The "Order66" Killing all Jedi did strike me as tragic. Understandable when these guys have died saving their own Jedi, but programming destroyed this loyalty "Et tu Brute" squared or a whole army of Manchurian Candidates? Anakin betraying the Jedi was forced, although we do have episodes...

    Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

    No way that Dumbledore is dead. Good way to set up the next book. I was going to buy it the day it came out, but found out that it was on sale that night at 1 minute past midnight. So ended up browsing in the bookstore for another four hours. Well, didn't guess who the half-blood Prince...

    2046

    Thanks for the review. I have the DVD, but haven't had the time to watch the film. One more thing I need to find out is; would you recommend it as a date movie?;)

    Elizabeth Moon - Deed of Paksenarrion

    I remember distinctly that the title "Sheepfarmer's daughter" was the reason for picking up the book. Maybe I was thinking of a sort of "Princess Bride" type of thing, but it is a good book. This ended up leading me to "Legacy of Gird" AS for the part about discussing covers and titles? I...

    Best spaceship?

    I suppose if we are talking about the big ships. Can any really compare to "Dahak"? Weber's book called the "Mutineers' Moon" had the premise of the moon actually being an ancient ship used by our ancestors. I also liked the way that humans can have enhanced strength and endurace, as well...

    Starchaser: The Legend of Orin

    I have been waiting for a sequel to this film. I do wonder why they don't make more of these sort of cartoons?

    Catwoman

    I liked the Catwoman movie personally. Although I do agree that she could have played a better Storm. Perhaps a recast? Beyonce Knowles as Storm perhaps?

    Dr Who (new series)

    I've missed the last few episodes, although I've read that the effects have been kept at the really low budget end of the speectrum. C'mon, what the heck are the people producing the show thinking? With current technology for effects and the whole multiverse to explore, they could do alot of...

    Revenge Of The Sith

    At the moment my questions revolves around the fact that the Jedi were exterminated apart from some students and old masters. They can't cover that in one film. In the comic books droids seem to have been used extensively to battle against Jedi. This may happen again along with more clone...

    Best spaceship?

    Finally found the name. It's known simply as "the carrier". 50 miles diameter in size, so big enough for parties. It can go to any alternate Earth, but nowhere else. The fact that it is sentient.....wonder how to persuade it to go on voyages of exploration..lol. The Puddlejumpers would be...

    Cylon/human

    I was very suspicious of the series, but it's now growing on me. It was a bit interesting that the twelve colonies have a culture quite reminiscent of the American one...:confused: They could have kept the Eqyptian motif and added other ancient cultures. left out such things as last...

    Which ship?

    He possessed the Executor, Super Star Destroyer. Definitely not a bad ship to have. A bit top heavy with a crew of 184,000. I think I prefer the Defiant with a crew of 80. After all what's the point of adventure when you end up taking absolutely everyone with you?

    Which Greek God are You?

    I ended up becoming Apollo. Interesting.

    Why fans should make Trek

    I liked the premise of "The Return" Kirk was resurrected by the Borg. Then the Trilogy with the Mirror, Mirror universe. The battle with his alter ego Tiberius was definitely worth watching. Will they eventually have a new cast for the original crew, I wonder?

    Britons ignorant of UK history

    Well, if we don't learn from history and learn correctly we will make the same mistakes. It is sad that we don't learn this anymore. I saw a documentary once of Japanese teenagers who didn't know of the events of the second world war.

    Why fans should make Trek

    I'd vote for the movie being made. The part about all the Trekkers being placed together on film would be a fan's dream. THanks for the link. more people should know about this.

    Nine princes to Amber - Roger Zelazny

    I wouldn't mind having that power...:cool: The first series was about Corum and then about his son Merlin. The premise that you can find a world where you are a god or look like their god is awesome. A D&D players wet dream perhaps? If they all create shadows of themselves, then Merlin it...

    Robyn Asimov defends 'I, Robot' movie

    Well we do have to remember that Tolkien didn't want Disney to make Lord of the Rings. I liked the films, although it still lacked a few things in my imagination. They also added a couple of things and omitted the Scouring of the Shire. So not the perfect film. I,Robot certainly will change...
