Mr. Worf, it's my understanding that one of the terms of Dollhouse's renewal was that they trim the budget severely, including ditching the "Remote Free TV" hook. -[ Received Mail Content ]-- Subject : Re: [RE][scifinoir2] sarah connor goes dollhouse stays Date : Tue, 19

I think being the "best reality show" is akin to being the "biggest midget" and I, personally, find "The Amazing Race" no more redeeming than say, "The Biggest Loser." But, I am an inveterate channel surfer and I always stop for black people - so I saw some of this year's "Amazing Race." Those

Re: [scifinoir2] Re: Reaper?

I like the show because it was completely different than anything else that has been on tv. I think that they could have punched up the comedy a little more though. It is a little too flat at times. I noticed last night that it was produced by ABC studios now. That is another thing that is a proble

I enjoy it too. It's a fun lighthearted series, not a must-see, but one of those I like to have around whenever the mood strikes me to watch. Of course, that doesn't work nowadays, and I hear it's been canceled... - Original Message - From: "ravenadal" To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com

Re: [scifinoir2] Kirk's Dad is "Thor"

Wow... They went there. They will probably loose their fan base after this. Broadcasters keep trying to force good shows to be kid friendly to get those ratings. There's a balance that has to be found between the two or not at all. Have you noticed that majority of the action films are now pg13?

Yeah, I think I posted recently, in reference to the new "Terminator" flick, disappointment that it's PG-13. There's a new trend to do that so that toy and food chain crossover marketing can pull kids into the theatre for big box office. Then, knowing adults get ticked, the studios are increasin

I like Reaper but the premise is wearing a bit thin. I did like the additional characters they brought in this year like Morgan and Nina. If they get another season they need to shake the show up a bit more. --- In scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com, "ravenadal" wrote: > > I love the premise and bemoan

Mr. Worf, I think they're already anticipating such. Indeed, they may even be looking to move in that direction. I had the feeling, from a few of the fans over in Britain, that the show's racier direction was distracting to the story they were trying to tell, that it was becoming more an SF soap

Re: [scifinoir2] Kirk's Dad is "Thor"

They had a couple of good subplots like the Captain and his brother. The wormhole or whatever its called that was allowing things through. They will probably add a talking alien or kids now which is the complete opposite direction. I think I rather see a love triangle. :) On Wed, May 20, 2009 at 1

I'm hearing it's more geared toward box office fear. For example, whenever "The Matrix" is discussed in terms of how much money it made, it's always added "for an R-rated movie it did very well". The understanding is the "R" rating turns away the adults who'd otherwise take their children, and o

Re: [scifinoir2] Kirk's Dad is "Thor"

The original and T2 was rated R. T3 was R too but had weak writing which is what almost killed the series. There is a tendency to tone down the action in pg13 movies sort of a self fulfilling prophecy that it will fail. I think T4 will do good because the effects are new. OOOoo I just thought of

Re: [scifinoir2] Kirk's Dad is "Thor"

According to the director the film was 2 shots away from an R rating and they decided to remove them because he thought that those shots would be "gratuitous." However, he didn't mention the videogame, the action figures, cheapo toys, and a face and glove that they licensed from the movie. I think
