Re watching some horror films, this version of Screams Of A Winter night is the original director's cut, the film had been shortened quite a bit for theatrical release.

love the borg, so dark and sinister and 7 of 9...wonder what 9 of 9 looked like...you will be assimilated, it is futile to resist...ahhhhh help.........

Hihi. 7 of 9 was gorgeous!
In First Contact you have the Borg queen. She was great, and terribly annoying. The part where Data gets a bit of skin etc.

Introducing the Borg sure as heck was a very good decision!


borg was introduced in next gen, entitled Q , voyagers 7 0f 9.jeri ryan, man I had a crush on her.. she had a short lived series where she was a school teacher also...

She should make / have made an appearance on "Picard" as well.
But I gave up on that series. For some reason I couldn't get into it even though I'm crazy about Star Trek TNG and Voyager.
Personally I feel Picard should've remained retired and leave us the memory of an absolutely stunning Enterprise captain.
The Star Trek movies with Chris Pine were great as well! A shame there won't be more. He made a very good Jim Kirk!

Also funny how your sense of humour can change. I used to hate Q! SO annoying! My then husband thought he was hilarious.
Last time I watched TNG I loved seeing him as well! The man was really good and unbelievably funny in annoying Picard.

Tour of Duty... one of these series that stay with you! I sometimes watch it again. I've got it on HD, downloaded in the days we were still allowed to download. Not DVD quality, but good enough.
An excellent series!

funny fact, jeri ryan turned down the part of 7 of 9, 4 times . she finally accepted the role as a 4 part segment, as a means to make the producers stop bugging her. and she enjoyed the cast, so much she agreed to stay on.
they approached her again for the voyager cameo in the movie nemesis, but she was busy with her new life(new husband and second child) and opted not to do it. so we got admiral janeway instead.

sorry for geeking out

tour of duty was viewed by the network as too violentand realistic so it was slated to be canceled after it's first season. they got so much mail from viet nam vets. thanking them for showing people what it was really like for soldiers who were over there. that they continued the series until the mail stopped flooding in. there were some hard stories told in that series. some were also based on letters that were sent in.
I'm on stand by for china beach as well..but I have not found it yet.

Yes, and that's one of the reasons I love that show: the veterans finally getting some hard earnt recognition! When reading more about things of that war and how the vets got treated at home, how they still suffer diseases from all the crap they got sprayed with etc etc... so effing sad! It can seriously make me cry.
If memory serves I made a topic about that a few years back and many Americans replied, adding info about veterans they know / knew.

The show addressed some serious issues, like the couple of episodes with the black revolt, triggered by this one a-hole and a few Nazi-like whites. It shows how tense it got and how difficult to navigate that situation.
And the drug addictions... Purcell as he was traumatised for accidentally shooting a kid.

Very deep series. I can totally get why the veterans loved it. It shows so many facets of what their life must've been like over there.

I can remember being in the 1st or second grade, that us kids started saying,
say, hey,
get out of our way,
we just got back to the USA.
simply because we thought it sounded cool. no one explained to us what it meant at the time. we just so innocent then. we dint understand the world beyond the slide and the sand box.

to continue with the subject.. all add.
heart break ridge, and fire fox, and the guuntlet

Page Eight - 2011 - 6,9 rating

British secret service mixed with political intrigue.

A weird movie, yet fascinating in a weird way.
I'm not quite sure if I got the ending but alas...

Exodus: Gods And Kings - 2014 - 6,0 rating
With Christian Bale

The story of Moses, leading the Jews out of Egypt.

Not my kind of story really. Too biblical, and speaking of a 'wrathful' god, which I do not believe in either.
But alas... if you like that sort of thing I guess it's an okay movie.
