It's amazing what can end up coming from a simple movie. Back in 1994 a science fiction epic called Stargate hit the big screen. Written by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich, and directed by Roland Emmerich, this movie ended up becoming a huge franchise.

Novels based on the original movie, Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis, an animated series called Stargate Infinity, books based on both television series, a D20 modern Role Playing Game, an impending Massive Multiplayer online game, comics, a rumoured third TV series and of course two direct to DVD movies.

This review is about the second direct to DVD movie, called Continuum.

As per usual, this review contains no spoilers other than what you might have seen in trailers or what you gleaned from the back cover. ... Read More

Season 1 was brilliant: fresh, inspired, not afraid to take risks. Season 2? Rather insipid, I'm afraid. Peter's love interest, the whole Shanti virus... it's really not very good. It should be called Season 1.5, bring on the REAL Season 2!

I personally believe this was the best season of house. Like the below author it was time for a change. The writers were very clever in creating the roles for the needed characters we were going to love and hate this year. Another great thing that happened this year is we saw more of Wilson and Cuddy. I felt that their characters werent being used up as much as house's team was. Which made me wanting to see them more and more. Seasons start out with all sorts of questions that arent answered right away. When the shows get good it is towards the middle and end of the seasons. This show never disappoints, every episode is a masterpiece that should be treated as such.

Dexter is one of my favorite characters.

Season 2 takes place about 5-6 weeks after season 1, debbie is trying to coop with what happened to her last season, and and some of the other characters are trying to move past what happened near the end of last season. Early on, Dexter's bodies are discovered in the ocean.

This brings about what season 2 is about, as the heat gets closer and closer on Dexter, he has to choose between accepting who he is, trying to change, or giving up.

This is a great season, we get some new characters, and this is an original storyline not found in any of the books. Julie's character (Rita) gets more face time this season, and really starts to come around and be more of herself. You feel sorry for her, and proud of her.

I can honestly say, that season 5 is the best out of the series, and I have an extremely high regard for the previous 4. I rank The Wire up there with 24 in terms of best series on TV in recent memory.

Iron Man (Jon Favreau, 2008)

Wait, Jon Favreau directed this? The guy who did Elf? And Zathura? Someone must have messed up the credits, because I find it well-night impossible to believe that someone who could have unleashed those monstrosities on the world could make not only a credible, but an exceptionally enjoyable, action thriller. And yet here it is, in all its glory, Iron Man.

Robert Downey, Jr. is one of those guys who pops up in movies when he's out of rehab and either wipes the floor with the entire rest of the cast (Chaplin, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang) or kind of fades into the woodwork (Gothika, a movie I'm sure everyone involved would love to forget). This is a mopping-the-floor performance, which is even more impressive given the caliber of the rest of the cast; Jeff Bridges, Shaun Toub, Terrence ... Read More

I thought that it was a great season, apart from the six month gap. The price is steep for the shortened season, but Im sure that a mega- chain store will have it on sale when it comes out. So Id rather patiently wait to save a few bucks, rather NBC try to rip us all off.

I first have to start by saying that I don't watch any episodes of any show on TV, I always wait for the DVD set to watch all of them at once. I was very close to buying this season until I saw the price of $32 for 13 episodes, so I decided to rent it first. Thank GOD it did, because it is SO NOT WORTH BUYING. Season 3 of Prison Break is such a letdown. I am actually happy that their are only 13 episodes in this season. I just don't see how they were gonna drag this stupid plot out for 22 episodes. I can only hope the show gets back on track in Season 4. I have to say I am a very big fan of seasons 1&2, so it pains me to tell you all NOT TO WASTE YOUR MONEY. Save yor $32 and open up an online movie service account. I have a feeling all of the DVD sets this season are going to be to overpriced. For me it's hard because I am one of those ... Read More

Perhaps not as historically accurate as some would like, but I still thought they did an exceptional job of potraying both the events of the period and the lives of John and Abigail Adams.
