    Review Phantom of the Opera (2004)

    They feed into each other don’t they? Producers make films for stupid people. People keep watching them and they infect their brains, making them either stupid or stupider. They keep on making stupid films, people growing up on those films are conditioned to be stupider and stupider, and before...

    Review Phantom of the Opera (2004)

    The Lon Chaney one was the best of the lot. The only thing I don’t like about it is that horrid ending. In the book Erik just let Christine go and died alone. They felt the need to have pursuers with torches and pitchforks put an end to him. They were afraid the audience wouldn’t be satisfied if...

    Review Phantom of the Opera (2004)

    I’ve never seen the musical in the theater. I have heard “Music of the Night” before though. I did like the songs a lot, but the rest left something to be desired. Gerard Butler was miscast. The Phantom is supposed to have a voice like an angel, whereas Butler is passable but not that great...

    Review Phantom of the Opera (2004)

    I’ve been watching Classic Who on Brit box. And the best thing about it? There was a glitch in the system and I’m getting it for free! I wonder how long that will last.

    Fun The Last Movie That You Watched?

    I think you’ll like it. There’s some humor in it. It shows Cheney is quite human, but also an evil piece of shit.

    Hulu doesn’t have Soylent Green, and you have to pay for it on that ripoff service Amazon Prime.

    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    I hope the Doctor isn’t enough of an imbecile to keep Myrtle alive as a slab of concrete. There is a fan notion that Elton was driven crazy by her death and is hallucinating. Kill the Moon had decent writing and characterization, but I cannot forgive them for making gigantic scorpions...

    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    I don’t like Fear Her either, but Love and Monsters is worse. The worst, worst, WORST Doctor Who episode of all time is Kill The Moon.

    I didn’t care for that episode at all.

    Poll Homelessness

    I have, occasionally, but I don’t carry that much cash around (and I don’t particularly want to deplete my finances). I’ve heard that homeless people just want some acknowledgement - they’re hurt being treated like non-people - but I’m ashamed when I don’t give them money. But I should probably...

    Oh please no. I like RTD’s notion that she flew into the sun.

    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    These are valid criticisms. But I think Jodie’s doing fine, if anything she’s doing what she can with the script she’s being given. I think perhaps the writers are intimidated writing for a woman? From what I’ve seen the Doctor’s changing personality was pretty well established from the time of...

    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    They used to be better at historicals imo. The Romans, The Aztecs, and The Reign of Terror were VERY good. The Aztecs and was sort of a morality tale. I think Star Trek does a better job addressing social problems. I do like the premise of these three episodes but the science fiction elements...

    Review Series 12

    Well we’ll see how today goes. I’ll see long after today, but we’ll see nonetheless. It would be a shame. If they end the series I’d like to see her turn into the Valeyard, since she has to do that eventually, but maybe they’ll leave it open-ended in case someone wants to restart it sometime in...

    Review The Orville (2017)

    I am in a house with 7 other people including two vey noisy little kids who want to watch nothing but cartoons, so I’m not seeing this episode until they leave. And I’m recording Doctor Who tomorrow.

    I hate people who dismiss mental illness. Those people are callous and narrow-minded.
