The Fountain
April 5th, 2008 — fantasy, From The Feeds, sci-fi
I might be going out on a limb here, but “The Fountain” wasn’t that bad. In fact, it was surprisingly watchable. The whole “sci-fi” angle -- if you can call it that -- probably scared off a bunch of folks and confused others, but at the core, it’s a simple story about a husband coming to terms with the impending death of his terminal wife. I don’t get the hate that it caught from some critics. Is it the most straightforward story ever told? Hardly. Might it be a little too artsy for its own good? Definitely. We often bash films for being too cookie-cutter and safe, but the minute someone ventures off the beaten path... WHAMMO!
Knight Rider 08
February 17th, 2008 — From The Feeds, knight rider, sci-fi, television
My eyes! My ears! I read somewhere that the script was written in twelve days!?! My eyes! My ears! Looked more like a two hour Ford infomercial than anything else. There is no plot. I repeat, there is no plot. Loved the attempts at being hip and edgy: Mike in bed with not one, but two babes! The hot Federal Agent is a love ‘em and leave ‘em lesbian! And Mike, guess who’s your daddy? The Hoff cameo at the funeral almost redeemed a ton cheese and bad acting -- too bad we didn’t get a throwback Kitt cameo. Val Kilmer walks away the most unscathed because he doesn’t appear on screen. How can you have a “Knight Rider” movie and no Turbo Boost!? This has to be right up there with the "Bionic Reunion” movies and “The Trial of the Incredible Hulk”. NBC, put the archives down and slowly back way.
Gone
December 21st, 2007 — From The Feeds, sci-fi, television
Television just became a little less interesting... “The 4400” (and “The Dead Zone”) got axed this week and the series finale of “Journeyman” aired on Wednesday. Both shows (never got into “Dead Zone”) were fun rides with obvious appeals -- note to Moon Bloodgood: no more time travel shows! -- and are probably headed for the Sci-Fi Channel’s weekday marathons. “Heroes” sophmore slump and the plummeting ratings of the once skyhigh “Bionic Woman” didn’t exactly inspire confidence in genre tv. In other news today, still fleshing out my outline for that “Supernatural” spec.
