Tough times for sci fi fans...

24.128.190.214

I know lots of Hollywood product is more than a bit lame these days but whats happening to sci fi is a real disappointment. I'm a sci fi nut going back to Day the Earth Stood Still & Forbidden Planet but the past year has seen a succession of dregs.

Star Wars the Phantom Menace? - 7 year old demographic targeting, product placement rich, brainless drivel, lead actor(?, munchkin?, mannequin?) who couldnt act his was out of a thin paper bag with a machete.

Supernova? - Derivative, plotless, aimless and insipid. And those are its strong points.

Pitch Black? - overrated, lifeless characters, actors and audience as morons plot devices to advance the story.

Mission to Mars? - the scientific credibility of a three Stooges short, plot holes you could drive a semi through, the silliest ending in recent memory.

And whats next? At this point even another Star Trek movie would be a welcome relief...
