My Thoughts:
I have not seen this movie in close to 30 years! I haven't seen it snce the '80s shortly after it's release. All I remembered is that I enjoyed this one... and I must say... all ths time later and I still loved this film! The downside to this blu-ray disc is that it was released by Mills Creek.... one of the worst... very low budget release. I was actually surprised to see this one has a commentary track with Helen Slater and Yeardly Smith. But at the same time they couldn't even put a menu for scene selection!?! I would love to see a blu-ray release for this one done right! My Rating:

My Thoughts:
OK... I said it before and I will say it again. In this case I actually prefer this remake to the original! I just couldn't hack Barbara's whining, crying and screaming in the original. Yes... I know... in the beginning Barbara is still all scared and crying... but she is quickly out of that in this version! This is the way I want to see Barbara! Not to mention that I am a huge fan of Tony Todd. Between those 2 things... it really feels like this remake was made catered to me. As much as I love the original... and I do love the original!.. I have to say in this case I definitely prefer the remake! How often can someone say that?

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: The Complete First Season marathon, a review by Achim
Dungeons and Dragons
Yeah, another good episode. Some mysteries were being set up so that there is some suspense to find out what will develop from that. Seeing a T-800 during those flashbacky-forwardsy thingys (just a look-a-like though...) was nice. I thought the future scenes was quite well done and help to develop the "back"story for Derek. ("Dereks don't run."
)I too can hardly wait for Monday so that I can continue (I have a day off Monday, in fact the whole next week, so I just might finish the last disc in one day
No one ;liner stuck in my mind this time
I just checked and found that Season 2 is apparently a full-blown one, according to IMDb there's be 22 episodes.
