Stargate SG1 - Season 1

Advantages: Gripping, addictive, plenty too watch, perfect in most ways
Disadvantages: expensive and may take up most of your days for the next while

...a massive fan of the Stargate franchise since my older brother brought home the first season box set a couple of years ago and we sat down to watch it nearly every day. Ok, so first I’ll begin with an explanation of the Stargate SG1 universe. Here goes. Humans are a the next step in the evolutionary path of a race of aliens known as the ‘Ancients’. They were a massively advanced race both in technoligy and mentaly who existed millions of years ...
...a device known as the Stargate that is capable of near instantanious travel between two of the devices usually situated on different planets though sometimes appear in space. So when the Ancients ascended they left behind stargates on thousands of worlds. Next we have a parasitic race known as the goa’uld which are symbiotes that burrow into a host body and take control of it usually enhanncing its abilities. But these symbiotes are all egomaniacs ...

Fantastically lags story wise

Advantages: Some good special effects and CGI
Disadvantages: Too slow, not enough of a story, lost interest before the end

...was one that featured a Fantastic 4 cartoon, so I was somewhat familiar with the characters and I do like a good fantasy type movie every now and then, so I thought I'd give this a watch. I'm glad I didn't purchase the DVD, it wouldn't have been worth it. - Main Credits (non-actors, which are mentioned further on in the review) - Source:- IMDB (see:-http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120667/fullcredits) Director - Tim Story Written by - Mark Frost and ...

Review of Fantastic Four (DVD)

Bad science and even worse plot

Advantages: Great effects
Disadvantages: No plot at all really, HUGE science goofs.

There is no real plot in this movie as such, a group of 5 people go into space, aquire powers and 4 of them use them for good while the 5th uses them for evil until the other 4 decide to stop him. I know its a really short summation but thats the ENTIRE film in just that sentance! None of the main characters are really given any kind of introduction. At least in Spiderman and X-Men there is some kind of character outlining. Their powers are acquired ...
...They get into space too easily, the mission isn't explained. Why Victor Doom is aboard, no reason given. This is an excuse to put Jessica Alba into a low cut top to show us her cleavage. The scenes in the mountains where the powers are first shown like Human Torch's flame on. Totally pointless and there for thrill value only. Why each member gets the particular power they do, they were all hit by the same rays but all get different powers? The "cloud" ...

Review of Fantastic Four (DVD)

The X-files season one

Advantages: Best box set i own
Disadvantages: only 7 seasons made

The first season of the xfiles really set the mark for alot programs scince,when it first came to our screens it was pretty unique and told different stories about paranormal and alien events and brought them to life on our screensl.Scully and mulder investigate these weirdl events together and also grow as people together and season one is where it all starts its definatley a classic. Some of the most memorable episodes came out of season one ,Toombs, ...
...episodes and if you buy the special edition you get extras of deleted scenes special effects and the original tv advertising,the series ends on a cliff hanger as all good series do and if buy some strange chance you have never given the xfiles ago you definatley should do it now and then start on season 2:) ...
