And that's the best we get: "not bad". That is sad. I listen to a couple of scifi podcasts weekly, and one recently was discussing the movie I keep plugging, "Dog Soldiers". Good reviews all around for what is not a SyFy Original, but one of the best movies they've ever aired.

It was not great, but the acting was okay and the script was passable. Even reviewers said it was surprisingly good for scifi Android Apocalypse It was not good, but it was not intolerably bad. So on a sliding scale, it was not bad.

Of course, i'd like to get a SyFy Original that's *good*, not camp! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mr. Worf" <hellomahog...@gmail.com> To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, February 1, 2010 2:28:10 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: [scifinoir2] The movie Meteor Storm Yea I laughed at that too. Their explanation was that there was already a meteorite at the bottom of the bay. So the birds may have that ability from back then. The worst scene was the bridge scene. The bridge was completely empty but for drama they added in traffic. Not only that but the people in the traffic ran back across the bridge (same thing in the xmen2 movie) toward San Francisco when they were more than 3/4 of the way across! Hilarious!

For starters, did you see the dopey kid say "Look at the birds?" They then show a shot of birds fleeing the area. Look, I know animals have senses about things such as impending storms and maybe even earthquakes, but meteorites? How the hell could birds have sensed meteorites that were still in space at the time?! Did you recognize the blonde lady playing the main scientist? That's actress Kari Matchett, who played actor Eddie Cibrian's ex-wife on the short-lived scifi series "Invasion". She also plays actor Timothy Hutton's ex-wife on the series "Leverage". Can figure out what it is about her. I'm not at all into slim blondes, but she has a cuteness factor for some reason. Maybe it's the dimples when she smiles? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mr. Worf" < hellomahog...@gmail.com > To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, February 1, 2010 12:58:45 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [scifinoir2] The movie Meteor Storm Tonight I watched the movie Meteor storm tonight. This movie was about a freak meteor shower that turned out to be a the beginnings of a large asteroid that is aimed at San Francisco. Several land marks were destroyed including Alcatraz. The effects in the movie weren't the best, but it was kind of fun to watch anyway. One thing that was hilarious in the movie was whoever wrote the movie had a serious problem with cellphones in San Francisco. A definite reoccurring theme. You gotta love that. I think that I am learning something from these bad movies. How to shoot something really cheaply. -- Celebrating 10 years of bringing diversity to perversity!
