Somewhere right now Roger Corman is practicing rolling in his grave.gar·bage /ɡärbij/ noun North Americanwasted or spoiled food and other refuse.synonyms: trash, rubbish, refuse, waste, detritus, litter, junk, scrap; scraps, leftovers, remains, slops, nonsense, balderdash, claptrap, twaddle, blather; dross, rubbish, tripe, jive, bilge, bull, bunk, poppycock, piffle, bunkum, vulgar, slangcrap, crapola...and now a recipe for Corned Beef Hash:1 Heat butter in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) on medium heat. Add the onion and cook a few minutes, until translucent.2 Mix in the chopped corned beef and potatoes. Spread out evenly over the pan. Increase the heat to high or medium high and press down on the mixture with a metal spatula.3 Do not stir the potatoes and corned beef, but let them brown. If you hear them sizzling, this is good. Use a metal spatula to peek underneath and see if they are browning. If nicely browned, use the spatula to flip sections over in the pan so that they brown on the other side. Press down again with the spatula. If there is too much sticking, you can add a little more butter to the pan. Continue to cook in this manner until the potatoes and the corned beef are nicely browned.4 Remove from heat, stir in chopped parsley. Add plenty of freshly ground black pepper, and add salt to taste.Serve with fried or poached eggs for breakfast....'nuff said.
I could have done a better voice-over with out even trying if that gives you any clue how bad this movie was.Forget waterboarding, force our enemies to watch this movie instead. It will get confessions out of them quickly. NO MORE, PLEASE! I BEG OF YOU!The actors, and I hesitate calling them that were terrible. Is there a sub-Z list? The fat guy co-pilot who liked like he hasn't gotten out of a chair (except to eat) for fifteen years. Yea right, he couldn't have been co-pilot, he'd have to burn at least some calories moving.Most of the live action was obviously filmed over a green screen and had this weird blur/fuzz over it.The costumes consisted mainly of baseball and hockey gear spray painted silver, with electrical conduit strapped on.What was good about it? Some of the special effects were kind of okay, they didn't all look cheap. And actually the music score wasn't that bad.This is a movie that shouldn't have been made. And then the agony, a sequel is (gasp) announced at the end before the credits. Why watch trash like this when there is something better?
In the first half hour, there are many similarities to the 'classic' British science fiction show.References to titles such as 'Supreme Commander' and planets such as 'Gauda Prime'.That's without the fact that Blakes 7 was all about rebelling against the Federation, the Federations control centre was called 'Star One' - similar to 'Starship One'......................Blakes 7 had the Terra Nostra.Could be coincidence, but as others have said, the film comes across as a fan pic (albeit with some good CG-I).
so movie starts with the perspective of the big bad overlord explaining the history... randomly changes to hero character explaining... a girl kidnapped from what appears to be a place of worship, next a rape? scene... The scenes are pieced together in a way that leads to confusion and wondering what on earth is the point... Hero appears to have girlfriend but then hooks up with the blonde perfect Barbie... Uprising against the evil pope of Terra and the crazy overlord of the federation who has some how lived for 200 years yet has a younger sister who is about 40 with an adult son... Acting... i have seen better in B-grade movies... however i have seen worse in A-grade...CGI surprising good and special effects well done.Over all the script writer should be fired.
