The season eight finale for Stargate SG-1 is an enjoyable two part romp. Seeing as the Replicators have been taken care of, and the Goa’uld system lords are nicely crippled, however will the season end? Part 1 of Moebius first aired on 18 March, 2005.

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…
Bill & Ted Face the Music (2020) – Dean Parisot
Bill & Ted came along at just the right time in my life. In 1989, I was a senior in high school, and the characters, their speech, and their general attitudes resonated with me. I joined them on their Excellent Adventure a couple of times in theaters, and in 1991 when they went on a…

Deja Vu (2006) – Tony Scott
I do enjoy a Denzel Washington/Tony Scott team-up and this temporal thriller ends up being a lot more fun than I remember from the first time I saw it. Scott’s constantly moving camera, saturated colours, and tight editing are on full display here as the story follows ATF agent Doug Carlin (Washington) as he investigates…
The Ministry of Time (2024) – Kaliane Bradley
