Brandon Lee and Dolph Lundgren are mismatched cops in this goofy, but undeniably fun 90s action flick, Showdown in Little Tokyo. Filled with silly stunts; Lundgren jumps over a car, goofy banter, tons of nudity and martial arts, it’s just a hoot. They are joined in the cast by Tia Carrere and Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, it’s…
Stargate SG-1 (2004) – Grace, and Fallout
Carter (Amanda Tapping) has gated out to the Prometheus, still working on getting its hyperdrive fixed (it needs lots of cool downs and can only make short jumps) as it makes its long journey back to Earth. And out there, under the command of Colonel Ronson (John Novak) they come under attack by a massive…
Northern Exposure (1993/1994) – First Snow, and Baby Blues
Cicely has its own way of winterizing, including citizens fattening up and planning on how many graves to dig before the ground freezes over. And Joel (Rob Morrow) is not only troubled by the reveal, but is bothered by the fact that one of his patients has told him that she’s just winding down. First…
Battlestar Galactica: Armageddon (1997) – Richard Hatch and Christopher Golden
Almost twenty years after we last saw the original Galactica fly off into the starscape with the episode The Hand of God (no one really counts Galactica 1980 as canon), series star Richard Hatch paired up with author Christopher Golden to continue the intergalactic space opera. The first of seven novels helmed by Hatch has…

We’re the Millers (2013) – Rawson Marshall Thurber
It took me a while to finally get this one. I honestly didn’t think I would enjoy it. But I was wrong. It’s charming, has some laugh-out-loud moments and features Jason Sudekis surrounded by an incredibly strong, comedic cast. Sudekis plays David, a man who has spent his entire life dealing pot. He has no…
The Visitor (1979) – Giulio Paradisi
The Visitor is a bizarre, so bad it comes around to be good sci-fi/horror film that is just bizarre. Its happenings are so strange, you can’t take your eyes off the screen, and like I said, it’s so bad, it’s actually good, in a really bad way. Aliens are fighting on the planet Earth. At…
Farscape (2001) – … Different Destinations, and Eat Me
In a series that has characters, moments and stories I love, …Different Destinations may be one of my favorites. First airing on 13 April, 2001 it was written by Steve Worland. While Moya is doing some cleaning that requires some downtime, Aeryn (Claudia Black), Crichton (Ben Browder), D’Argo (Anthony Simcoe), Stark (Paul Goddard) and Jool…
Pacific Heights (1990) – John Schlesinger
I remember when this one came out. I was very eager to see it, as until this film, and Batman before it, I had only seen Micheal Keaton in comedies. So throwing him in a thriller, as the baddie? How could I not tune in. Melanie Griffith and Matthew Modine portray Patty and Drake a…
