This one I bought mostly because it stars Charisma Carpenter... who I have liked since she was in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I never even heard of this movie before I did an amazon search on her name this past month. I found this one to be rather strange... and a bit hard to follow at times. But over all I found it entertaining enough to keep my attention. Pretty good... but definitely could have been better.

Jodhaa Akbar, a review by dfmorgan

Jodhaa Akbar

Year: 2008
Director: Ashutosh Gowariker
Cast: Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sonu Sood


Overview: Jodhaa Akbar is a sixteenth century epic romance about a marriage of alliance that gave birth to true love between the greatest Muslim Mughal Emperor that rules Hindustan (now India), Jalaluddin Mohammad Akbar , and the fiery young Hindu Rajput Princess, Jodhaa.

The film stars Hrithik Roshan as Emperor Akbar and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan as Princess Jodhaa.


Watched: 13th/14th Jul. 2010
My Thoughts: Following Asoka and Black this is my third Bollywood film, the second one full blown with song and dance. An immensely enjoyable experience although I couldn't watch it in one sitting, my own fault as I didn't start until 21:30ish on the 13th and at 214mins it wouldn't have finished until 01:00ish. Putting aside the song and dances, there were only 5 or 6 not sure if that is the average, this was a very enjoyable historical drama/romance. There were some decent battle scenes but I wasn't too sure about the sizes of the armies and the distances and locations that they fought in.

My Rating: A very enjoyable 4

Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews, a review by Tom

Star Trek: The Animated Series
Season 1.02 Yesteryear
Writer: Gene Roddenberry (Original Characters By), D. C. Fontana (Writer)
Director: Hal Sutherland
Cast: William Shatner (Capt. Kirk), Leonard Nimoy (Mr. Spock), DeForest Kelley (Dr. McCoy), George Takei (Mr. Sulu), Nichelle Nichols (Uhura), Majel Barrett (Nurse Chapel), James Doohan (Scotty)

I can't believe it has been a year already since I left off this marathon.
It is time now to watch the time-travel episodes of the animated series. This episode is probably one of the more famous ones from the animated series. In it time is changed and Spock doesn't exist anymore. He has to travel back in time and save himself as child from death. It is a rather good episode.
