Speaking of "Firefly", did anyone notice that Skiffy is doing a sort of reverse-marathon with the show? Friday 7 p.m. to 3 a.m., rather than the usual span, if anyone's interested.

I reviewed "Last Legion" for y'all, know i have the review somewhere around here. that movie was *horrible*, unlike "King Arthur", which always moves me, always leaves me wanting more... -------------- Original message -------------- From: Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Yeah, I think that was it. There was also a recent one, "The Last Legion", that seemed to do the same thing. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: good point. Are you talking about "Camelot", (I think that was the name), the Technicolor film from back in the day? I know at least one treatment of the Arthurian legend removed the magic. Now, "King Arthur" did also remove the magic, but i really like that movie.Watched it twice last week on FX -------------- Original message -------------- From: Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Felt like one of the two or three movies I remember about the retelling of the Arthurian legend, in which all the magic was removed. It's like art without color. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: "Hercules" was just plain awful...the rest had their moments. I wasn't too fun of "merlin", though. I found it to be dull, not having either the magic of the legends, nor a good tale sans magic. -------------- Original message -------------- From: Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I'll put it even with everything you you listed, save for "Hercules" (which I never was able to get into). None of them wowed or insulted me. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: cool, thanks for the comments. I'll watch it this weekend. Assuming you watched all the other scifi/fantasy miniseries of the last several years (The Odyssey, Gulliver's Travels, Arabian Nights, Hercules, Dinotopia, Merlin, etc.) how does it rank? I think some of the same team produced it as some of those others, no? -------------- Original message -------------- From: Bosco Bosco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I watched part one last night. I found it interesting and creative reimagining of the tale but it has a lot of the typical short comings of Sci-fi channel original programing. The script and the dialogue can tend to get a little awkward. There are some cheesy plot points and the direction and editing can feel ham handed. On the flipside, it's really pretty fun so far and the story is has been both intriguing and relatively well conceived. It's good enough to drive me to finish it this weekend before my girl has to go back to Mass for another ten days of work. I'll probably netflix it when it is released on DVD in the future. I probably will not buy it. Unless my kids really want it. Bosco --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Anyone? not hearing any reviews.
