Finally a series could be ended in the correct way. Usually series just goes on and on until they are canceled by some suit.
But not BSG. BSG ended on its own terms.
BSG was a great series and it ended in a great way which blew me away. It ended in more of a theist way than the more more atheist approach of the 1978-version: but not done in a preachy way.
Most ends were tighed and most questions were answered. And that is what i like. We do not have to be told everything. We can second guess for over selves.
Ronald Moore did not go towards the "ancient astronaut"-ending, like in the original 1978-BSG. And first i was disappointed. But now that the final episode has settled in my mind i rejoice and am glad. The 70ties were another time - today we need different answer to the fundamental question: Why? And the series finale episode did give a good answer to why.
It was a good ending for the series. And i know i am going to see the episode over and over again and again. Just like when the season finale of season 3 came (that fracking song).
Overall i really liked the series (just not all that suicide-bombing glorifying of start season 3 and all the other left wing political references to the Iraq war).
It was a more or less decent and good show. I liked it. And i loved the final episode. Now what do i do?

As the summary says: They must have saved the worst Futurama film for last. I finally got the DVD yesterday and man i was disappointed. The story of this particular futurama movie was more simple than the other futurama movies - but boring as hell.
All the other Futurama movies had very complex stories with weird things going on all the time - and they were all entertaining and funny. This latest and fourth movie is just about weird things.
The script is better structured than the previous movies. There are fewer plot-holes, BUT!!! it is a very boring story compared to all of the rest of the movies. The part about Leela joining the space-hippie-feminists were not funny. Nor were the tin foil hat stuff with Fry.
Throughout the movie i just looked at the timer and said to my self: isn't this movie over yet! But it wasn't. It just did go on and on.
Im sure that most Futurama-people at this point in Futuramas history had gone on to more interesting projects. Because the spirit of Futurama was gone in this last movie.
All Futurama fans should of course watch it, but prepare to be disappointed.

This so called "Documentary" state that George Bush and a secret Government conspiracy somehow managed to plan and execute 9/11, and make Arabs look responsible.
Though you should never accept what the government says blindly, then you should look at all cases with a fresh perspective now and again. Could the US government have planned 9/11? No. They could not. That would be idiotic.
No governments in history have ever successfully kept a secret of such a magnitude. The very thought implies that not a single person in the American government have any moral values what so ever that they would gladly sacrifice 3000 innocent people, to loose a war in Iraq. But that simply is an idiotic idea. Such big and horrible secrets always leak. Always. Look at Watergate: Someone in the high levels of the US Government leaked the story to the press, which lead to the Watergate-scandal, which lead to that Nixon had to resign as president. And that was only about a simple break-in into a democrat-office, what you conspiracy theorists are talking about is the biggest mass-murder in modern American history. But I doubt you people know that. Watergate proves that something like 9/11 could not have been planned by the Government without the public knowing. Also they must have been insane to try something that stupid. Also: do you conspiracy-theorists really think that the white house could engineer the most elaborate attack on its self, without leaving behind any proof - when they could not even hide the fact that Bill Clinton had a blow-job in the oval office?
Evidently all the conspiracy claims put forth in this documentary have all been debunked by: Popular Mechanics, BBC, The History-Channel, 911myths.com and loosechangeguide.com.
Case closed. Get on with your lives, people.

Back in the early 90ties, I used to play this wonderful game on my Amiga.
Man I loved this game. In the start you should first go out and skate around the ice, looking out for holes, and following a trail, while Odie was there all around. I only finished that part, one or two times, but i still loved that part. That was the good thing about the Amiga-version of Garfield: Winter's Tail, you could choose your part of the game, not caring about the chronological aspect of it all. After that you should be going out on the snow with Garfield and a pair of skis, where you rode on top of snood in rooftops. On the way you could eat food from people around the way down, and also Garfield's owner Jon Arbeuckle was there (or Harald Jensen, as he is called in Danish (bamed after a kind of liqueur)), and on the way down Odie (or Futte as he is known in Danish) also rode down the slope on his board of some sort. It all ended with a very large roof, which (with all the snow) took the form of a giant slope, which Garfield jumped from, and crashed down into the house, in which the final chapter took place. And Garfield should always get food or else he would go to sleep. In the third chapter you should go around a big and massive house and make sure that some pipes went a certain way, so that you could do a certain thing - I never finished the game, unfortunately. But i still love the game, and holds a special Retro-nostalgia place in my heart. Maybe it was because i was a Garfield fan, that i loved it, but still, it was good.

When Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos came in 1993 or 1994, people were amazed. Not only did the game have an intro that was one the most beautiful to that date, it did also incorporate a good and interesting game-play. A funny side-story to this whole game was that Lands Of Lore originally was the game Eye Of The Beholder 3. But Westwood (who made Lands of Lore) lost the rights to do it, even though they had made much of the game. The remains of Westwood's Eye Of The Beholder 3 were converted into Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos. A good story about the evil witch Scotia taken possession of the enchanted ring "The Nether Mask", which she used to cover the lands in darkness. The Dark Army where on the move, and succeeding in smashing Gladstone, the symbol light of the lands, and poisoning King Richard. In the game your job is to slay Scotia. In the new version of this game King Richards voice where played by Patrick Steward - who did a good job. Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos where so successful, that it where succeeded by two sequels. I love this game. It is one of my most fondest memories of the mid-nineties.
Man I love Bubble Bobble for commodore 64. What a cool game. The music was very good. The game play ruled. As most commodore 64, it takes me back to the 80ties, when I was little. The same feeling must many Others also have. This game was also popular to other computer-types, and with good reason. This is one of the greatest computer games ever: It was simple, good and cosy - can you demand anything more? No! If you love commodore 64 - you will without a doubt know this game. This game became a part subculture and pop culture in the 80ties, and that is why the game appears on this marvellous movie-site. And with all the games which has been adapted to film over these last years, then who knows? Maybe we will some day see a Bubble Bobble movie - I know I want to see one. If Doom has been turned into a movie then Bubble Bobble has just as good potential.
This game is a legend. Bubble Bobble I love you and salute you.

For those many who loved their commodore 64 computer, the computer-game The Great Giana Sisters (1987) is hard to oversee. This game is without a doubt one of the, if not the, greatest commodore 64 games EVER. When the game first was published, Nintendo sued the company which made Giana Sisters, because it was to close to Nintendo's franchise Mario Brothers. Therefore the game was denied on the marked - you could by it. But that didn't stop the success of the game (most popular pirated games, though) - as said: it is probably one of the most well-known commodore 64 games ever. In a poll on a Danish computer-website (newz.dk), the game was only succeeded by the game: Bubble Bubble - This also is a very memorable game. The game takes me back to the happy 80ties - man i loved the 80ties, no worries in the world back then. The music, the graphic and cosiness of Giana Sisters made the game nice to play. It is very nostalgic to think of. All in all: I LOVE IT
First an introduction to the 80ties and the commodore 64. Many people born in the 80ties do remember the computer: commodore 64. This computer surely had a major influence in subculture in the 1980ties. The graphic and sound made it very cozy to play. There were many nostalgic games like: Giana sisters, double dragon and many others. A very good and nostalgic game was Garfield: Big, Fat, Hairy Deal - the must-play-game fore Garfield-fans, for a 80ties kid. The game was not drawn as good as some later games, but it did the trick never the less. There weren't many colors, but the background was drawn very well - good details. The music were very good, for a commodore 64. Also the small things in the game: Garfield could stand on his feet and then kick Odie and Jon - very funny back then. And secondly there were many details in the stuff Garfield could pick up in the game. And the story were fine. Garfield: Big, Fat, Hairy Deal were a very good commodore 64 game. Period.
This is a very good Danish movie, period. A few Danes think that this is a very bad film, because it took focus away from Danish art-films. Art films only a few people saw and all of are all but forgotten to day. This film is very simple and dumb - but it is fun, and that is the most important thing. Just because this film does not have some "greater" message does not make it any lesser of a film. Because of this, the film is very much liked by many average Danes - people that never would have seen any art film, even if it were free. A film like this is remembered by the public - and most art films are not (only the best are that). This film had an impact on pop-culture, and therefore it can be immortal. And that is better than an art film, which is forgotten in 10 years. And that is a fact. Walther and Carlo will always be remembered in Denmark.
But this film is properly not suited for non-Danes. They would not think that it is funny. OK, maybe people from Sweden or Norway. But outside Scandinavia = no.
This is a good film, no question about it. Good, not Great. But of course it is not a classic.
