I will review ‘Endgame’ and ‘How I Live Now’.
‘The X Files’ are doing a sequel to ‘Home’! Yay!
‘The Venus DeMilo Instead’ was from 1987.
‘Star Wars: Attack Of The Clones’ (2002) was ridic. ‘Rasputin: The Mad Monk’ (1966) was okay. ‘The Man With The Golden Gun’ (1974) was okay and ‘1941’ (1979) was bad. ‘Horror Express’ (1972) was good and ‘The Return Of Captain Invincible’ (1983) was bizarre.
The new show ‘Cordon’ sounds interesting.
1995 gave us the crappy ‘Star Trek: Voyager’ ep ‘Parallax’ and the okay ‘Sliders’ ep ‘Prince of Wails’. Also Alfred Molina was in ‘Species’ but no-one recalls that.
RIP Christopher Lee.
