Movie update time...

[lithera]

I must keep people updated. Ha ha ha ha... Or something. It's funny how much stuff I /don't/ put up here.

Here is an interview with Sci Fi channel's President about Farscape and why thigns went down the way they did.

Did anyone see Anaconda? Apparently enough people did since they're thinking of a sequel. Enh.

Christopher Reeve is going to be on Smallville! That rules! He's going to be on in February. Apparently he is a fan of the show and they'll be running a service announcement for his foundation too.

Even more Batman rumors. There are so many rumors going around about another Batman movie right now. Nothing too substantial, though. They're all "My friend over at such and such heard that..." sorts of rumors.

Howie Long as the Punisher? Didn't we learn? No, no, no, no. Come on. If we're going to make quality comic book movies, let's make quality comic book movies.

Saturday the 25th is the Static Shock premier with Harley, Ivy, Batman and maybe more.

I think that's it for the moment.

B5 was a little easier to jump into on the face of things. You didn't get the overall underlying story, but the episode you were watching was still appealling.

Farscape was . . . daunting.

I agree on that. If you picked up Farscape in the first season, you were okay. After that if you missed thigns, you always felt as though you had no idea what was going on. I still that way and I think I've seen most everything I missed along the way. Probably not.

B5 was the opposite way. The first season was likely to encourage you to never watch again. It wasn't that good until you got to later seasons. And those later seasons were well enough crafted that you could get a general idea of what was going on without having to know the relations and back story.

I love farscape

...but I stopped watching it. Mostly because it was hard to track when new episodes were on, and I got behind on my taping. And once I had missed some, catching back up was rather hard.

So eventually I figured screw it - I'll watch the whole thing after it's done and over. DVDs are a fine medium. But now... there won't be a proper ending. Kinda puts a damper on it.
