I actually enjoyed this one more then I expected to. A true love story that will put you through some emotions. Without going into detail about it.... I both liked and disliked how this story ended. But that is one thing I like about true stories... a happy ending is not guaranteed. Not that this is an unhappy ending... it just could have been happier. This one is definitely worth the time put in to watch it. Recommended.

Logan's Run, a review by Danae Cassandra

Logan's Run
Year of Release: 1976
Directed By: Michael Anderson
Starring: Michael York, Richard Jordan, Jenny Agutter, Peter Ustinov
Genre: Science Fiction

Overview:My Thoughts:
This is a great piece of classic sci-fi. Like all the best sci-fi it seems, it is both dated and timeless simultaneously. It is a very 70's film - bright colors, big hair, casual nudity. It is also a film for today, and for tomorrow too - in its basic questions: what is one's place in society? is a comfortable life worth what you have to give up for it? what is utopia? is there a responsibility in rebellion?

I thought all the main actors were quite good, and the cinematography and effects are wonderful for their day. You don't see miniature sets like that any more. Really, my only complaint is the scene with Box. It's completely out of place in the film and quite jarring. It could have been eliminated completely and tightened the film up quite a bit. Other than that, it's a great film, and I'd recommend it for any fan of classic sci-fi.

Bechdel Test: Fail

Overall: 4/5

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

1. LORD OF THE FLYS
A world without Superman. Clark leaves Earth to rule New KRYPTON... and Lord Nor arrives to institute a reign of terror.

My Thoughts:
This is a very good start to the final season of Lois and Clark. Clark comes back to earth when he finds out that Lord Nor has come to take over the world... starting with Smallville. It is part 1 of a 2 part episode.


2. BATTLEGROUND EARTH
The world's military gives Superman Just 48 hours to defeat Lord Nor, or they'll take on the "wacko Martian" themselves.

My Thoughts:
This is a good conclusion to the Kryptonian storyline... and the last episode to guest star Justine Bateman as Zara.


3. SWEAR TO GOD, THIS TIME WE'RE NOT KIDDING
They're getting married. Really. Unless the nutty Wedding Destroyer breaks out of confinement to break up the nuptials.

My Thoughts:
And we finally make it to Lois and Clark's wedding. An enjoyable... but somewhat silly episode that guest stars Delta Burke as the Wedding Destroyer... as well as David Doyle (Bosley on Charlie's Angels).


4. SOUL MATES
It's Lois and Clark's wedding night, the newlyweds are in a clinch... and H.G. Wells pops up with connubiality-busting news.

My Thoughts:
This is another good time travel episode. This time traveling to a couple different times as we learn that Lois and Clark has been in love through-out time. I really enjoyed this episode... as I have all the episodes with Tempus and H.G. Wells.
