"STAR TREK BEYOND" (2016) Review

And I also dislike - to a lesser degree, 2013's "STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS". So when I learned there was to be a third movie in this new franchise . . . needless to say I was not enthusiastic over the news. Read more... )

"STAR TREK" (2009) Review

Many fans of the STAR TREK franchise seemed to be in agreement that its last television series – "ENTERPRISE" (2001-2005) – had more or less killed the franchise. That opinion proved to be false with the release of the 2009 film – "STAR TREK", directed by J.J. Abrams. Read more... )

"STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS" (2013) Review

Following the success of the 2009 movie, "STAR TREK", producer/director J.J. Abrams continued the saga of this alternate STAR TREK with a sequel called "STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS".

COLE TURNER'S "HUMANITY"

When his character was first introduced in Season Three of "CHARMED", Cole Turner had been revealed in the episode, (3.08) "Sleuthing With the Enemy", as a human-daemon hybrid.

After twelve years, I have come to the conclusion that this explanation for Cole's complex personality seems like a load of bull. Read more... )
