Only II and IV are good enough to watch more than once. A few of the others (including all the Next Generation ones IMO) aren't watchable all the way through even once. But: different strokes... Attached please find a vaguely-related image featuring two of the only reasons to watch anything associated with "The Next Generation." Yes, of course it's a fake, but it makes my point.

Not even Star trek VI, Generations or First Contact?

I like both a lot, just really enjoy Insurrection and the cast look like they had fun making it.  The Enterprise E battle scene in the rift is perfect, wish it was a longer battle, but sometimes less is more right?  My ratings change all the time, when I rewatch movies

I think I saw "Forbidden Planet" at a drive-in with my parents and some other sci-fi movies such as "Atlantis the Lost Continent", The Wizard of Oz and Cleopatra with Elizabeth Taylor. I believe that movie was my first introduction to "cleavage".

Ah, Cleopatra!

Probably one of the least interesting of the "epic" films if you want plot or character development, it was as big-boob-oriented as a mainstream "G" movie could be. It was the first time I saw Scilla Gabel:

Starting to watch the Universal 30 movie dvd box set that was just released.  Got it and like it better than the 2004 releases, because these are single sided discs.  Though images on the discs would have been nice.  It is kind of weird though that House Of Dracula, House Of Frankenstein, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man, Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy all appear in the complete set several times, where as they could have been in the set once, since all the movies are together, as opposed to the separate series sets.  It is nice to have all the films together.


Dracula (1931) - 10/10
Dracula (1931 Spanish version) - 8/10
Dracula's Daughter (1936) - 8/10
Son of Dracula (1943) - 7/10
House of Frankenstein (1944) - 8/10
House of Dracula (1945) - 10/10
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) 10/10

Frankenstein (1931) - 10/10
The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) - 10/10
Son of Frankenstein (1939) - 7/10
The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942) - 10/10
Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943) - 10/10
House of Frankenstein (1944) - 8/10
House of Dracula (1945) - 10/10
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) 10/10

Have you gotten the new collections of Vincent Price?  I did, great quality on all the movies!  There so should have been another Dr. Phibes film

There was a 1999 monster/horror flick called Lake Placid, based on the idiotic proposition that a fifty-foot Asian crocodile somehow winds up in a lake in Maine. It has all the stereotypes--The bumbling county sheriff, the hapless deputy, the sexy paleontologist, the crazy movie director--but what redeems the movie from the trash heap is Betty White as the sole resident of the lakeshore (since her husband was eaten) who occasionally herds a cow down to the water's edge as tribute to the crock.

"It's his lake," she says.

Just saw a war movie called " Fury " with Brad Pitt and it was pretty good. It's about a Sherman tank crew in the waning days of WW2 but what makes the movie truly unique is that it has the only German Tiger tank that actually functions in the world as part of the movie. The tank is 70 years old and it is kept at a tank collection in Britain.  I recommend it.

Enjoyed Interstellar very much. I highly recommend it. A refreshing change from all the mindless franchise movies they make these days.

If you like a little romance, supernatural goings-on, a little slapstick humor, and some kick-ass martial arts, then I can recommend A Chinese Ghost Story (1987).

Truly a classic, and a film any fan of Hong Kong cinema needs to have seen. Its energy is boundless but never overwhelming or out of control. It does not depend on its special effects or wild choreography and instead remains faithful to the central romance even when the most insane stuff is happening and Wu Ma is being attacked by a giant tongue. - Ketih Allison, Teleport City

Enjoyed Interstellar very much. I highly recommend it. A refreshing change from all the mindless franchise movies they make these days.

Yes, it is a good movie but I have two complaints :

1.- The background sound / music was too loud and drowned out what the actors were saying in many occasions. While my hearing is normal for a 58 year old male, that doesn't mean it's the world's sharpest either. I want to hear the dialog so I can make heads or tails of what the movie is.

2.- At 165 minutes, not including 15 - 20 minutes for the trailers, it is too long without a intermission. I had to quickly leave the movie at the two hour time period to pee since my bladder said no more. If you are concentrating on not peeing your pants, rather than the movie, the movie experience is degraded.

I also saw Big Hero 6 and I highly recommend it. It's fun movie with gorgeous colors and a good storyline.
