"Miami Vice : Season 2" - Opener and 2nd episode. Slice me off a slab of cheese baby! Bet yer just itchin' for that movie. Nope. Not in the slightest. Why the normally wonderful Mann feels the need to name abuse his creation (that was SO a part of it's time) is beyond me. I have no interest in seeing it at all.

I have no interest in seeing it at all. My wife said there's plans to turn basically every one of those classic 80's shows into a movie. Oh, I can't wait till Night Rider and The A-Team...

I finally got to my favorite Christmas present:
King Kong 1933
Review in Review Hell is my longest yet, and I also compare it to it's remakes. [Edit:] I also have a few notes about the DVD.
I've now reviewed all three King Kong films! Enjoy!!

I just saw WW3 - only because Terry O'Quinn's in it. What an actor!

The Others--it's kinda like The Shining and The Sixth Sense. Nicole Kidman, though, is good, as usual. Maybe I'll write a review if there isn't one already.

STAR WARS: CLONE WARS Volumes 1 & 2
Great animated series that bridges the gap between EPISODES II & III. When exactly did Anakin stop being Obi-Wan's Padawan and become a Jedi Knight? Why does General Grievous have that cough? Wanna see Grievous actually kidnap Palpatine? It's all here in animated form. Good stuff.
SEINFELD
Season 4, disc 1. Like Term said, "Best sitcom ever."
THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (2004)
Okay adaptation of the Broadway musical. Like the live show, it gets a little long in the second half, but without the benefit of an intermission. Pretty good performances, but I really only like about half the songs. 6.5/10

Go for it--there isn't already a review of that one. You could probably do a poll if you wanted as I think most of us on here have seen it. I have, for instance.

Best Seller- Pretty good thriller.
A Tale of Two Sisters- Booooorrrring.
Raging Bull- Absolutely hysterical. And they call this a drama...
Orgazmo- Funny as Hell.
Dreamscape- Great thriller with an excellent cast.
Cabin Fever- It's not the "revival of the horror genre," but it's good.

A half hour, depressingly obvious, "Twilight Zone" episode strung out into 2 hours of boredom...Purely exists for the final twist which was as old as the hills anyway. Snooze.
