...a fan club convention of Galaxy Quest. We then see a backroom shot of actors dressed in their respective costumes. There is Gwen (played by Sigourney Weaver, Alexander (played by Alan Rickman), Fred (played by Tony Shalhoub) and Tommy (played by Daryl Mitchell). They are upset that the main cast charecter Jason (played by Tim Allen) is late for the convention. Jason arrives and they go on stage. A group of "aliens" go up to Jason asking for his help. ...

I'm The Spaceman Baby

Advantages: Can be bought cheap
Disadvantages: Scant Extras

The Astronauts Wife is one of those movies that doesn't really gather any real moss on it's release and as a result you're not really inclined to watch it at the cinema or pass it by on rental. It's one of those films that you'll watch when it comes on TV because it has recognisable faces in the cast.

...and things turn worse when the fellow astronaut kicks the bucket. Soon Jillian finds herself pregnant with twins and also finds Spencer acting in a strange manner. Soon she comes to realize that those two minutes may have had something to do with it and she could be dealing with something that is not her husband. This is a film that features good performances from it's leads. This is primarily Theron's film and she is excellent in it, Depp as always ...

David Suchet does Sci-Fi !!!

Roswell

Advantages: Good acting, strong stories
Disadvantages: Extras are forgettable.
