| My thoughts about Doctor Mordrid: |
| I have seen Doctor Mordrid before, and I thought it was only so-so. I gave it 2.5 stars at the time. I probably wouldn't have double dipped for the blu-ray release if it wasn't for Dave Allen's stop motion animation. As a big fan of stop motion I wanted those sequences in HD. I don't know if it was just the better picture and sound quality, or if I was just in a better mood for it, but I liked the film a bit better this time. The mythology seems pretty muddled. Apparently the script was originally an adaptation of Marvel's Doctor Strange, but Full Moon lost the rights to it, and changed it to Doctor Mordrid. Perhaps it would have made more sense to me if I had been familiar with Doctor Strange. It's an OK time-killer, but not a very good movie. But how many Full Moon movies are? |

The One Where It All Began: The Pilot Marathon, a review by DJ Doena
Ally McBeal
What's the show about?
Ally McBeal is a lawyer and works at the Boston law firm "Cage, Fish and Associates". This firm represents clients in the most unusual cases. Additionally Ally works there with her former lover Billy who is married to another lawyer of that firm.
"Pilot"
Ally gets fired because a co-lawyer of her's makes sexual advances towards her but doesn't get fired because he is higher in the hierarchy. But then she meets Richard Fish with whom she has studied at Harvard and he offers her a job at his newly-found law firm. And Ally sues her former employer...
My Opinion
The series is from the same author as "Boston Legal" (David E. Kelley). In both shows funny and/or absurd cases are brought to court. I love funny lawsuits since the days of "Night Court".
