I vaguely remember them giving a completely different answer about a year ago.

Seeing as I was laid up today with a head cold, I figured it would be safe to watch some b-grade (or less) movies without fear of killing too many braincells.

So I watched Lavalantula and Zombeavers. As expected, they were far from classics.


Well...you could've watched Sharknado 3 or even Lake Placid vs Anaconda(unless you're seen those already).

If you're looking for a bad monster movie, well, I can safely say I found the worst one ever, that's taking into account the bad sy-fy channel movies like the Sharknado franchise, bad/good 50s-60s era monster flicks like The Beginning of the End, painfully bad horror movies from the 80s-90s like Basketcase, and really bad political speeches from Donald Trump. I found the bad movie to end all bad movies. The The Milpitas Monster...

It's so painful to watch that I couldn't finish it, and it was free on Amazon streaming. I feel a worse person for having watched it.

Did that a few days after it aired.

Given that Sharknado and Lavalantula are essentially the same "universe", I expect a cross-over down the track.

Well you could've at least gauged the pilot episode itself! on it's own merits.

While I didn't watch the episode, my dad and sister were, and I was cooking in the other room, meaning I caught...maybe a quarter of the episode. Every single time I looked at it, I just thought:

This reminds me that I need to catch up on my Walking Dead. The last episode I saw was the season 4 finale. I still don't know how they got out of Terminus. If they did at all. Also, I watched Zombieland earlier today. That movie so needs a sequel. >:oP

Saw Shaun the Sheep the Movie last evening, adorable. Probably the best kids movie I've seen in years besides Paddington and Lego Movie.

I like that show Ray Donovan. I feel I can relate to the character, or maybe it's more admiration because I think he's bad-ass. Live Screiner basically plays the same character as in Wolverine where he was Sabertooth.

I would recommend Antman as the 2nd best Marvel movie besides Avengers this year. F4 was a letdown.

Antman in my opinion is a weak character concept. The Incredible Hulk is way better.

When they announced a TV series based on the Scream movies, I wasn't too sure if it would be a good idea or not.

Now that the season finale of the first season has aired (with a dedication to Wes Craven) I have to say ... good idea! It wasn't a retelling of the first Scream movie, rather it took elements and updated them for a modern era.

If you're a fan of the Scream series, it's well worth watching the TV series.

Supernatural is still going and for the most part, is still good.

Dexter has finished, and was great up until the last episode.

Watched 47 Ronin last night with the missus. Meh, it was okay. Kind of a different-looking samurai movie with the magical and spiritual elements in it. The wife hated it though since at the end 46/47 of the ronin killed themselves for honor.

Yeah, I started watching it a couple of years ago, then gave up about halfway through the 1st season. Then the ending was spoiled for me, so I didn't bother going back to it. But I heard good things about season 2-6, especially the season with John Lithgow, so maybe I'll try again.

Yeah well...that's what happened, sorcery and mysticism aside. Spoiler tags removed because this spoiler over 300 years old. Statute of limitations and all that.
