Why come up wtih orignal material when you can just re-hash the old stuff eh? Been seeing a great deal of reviews on this one and there have been some rather positive comments, along with the negatives. As always, time and Nielson rating will tell.The next interesting "remake" will be when the new Dr.Who series begins in 2005 on BBC with a new doctor.Regardless of how either show fairs, the efx shots will certainly look better then the orginals.# posted by Anonymous : 11:28 PM
To be fair, I think the writers at SciFi are coming up with a semi-original story and maybe characters that weren't in the original. If it's as good as "Legend of Earthsea" I'll watch it. That is, it retains the cheeziness characteristic of sci-fi TV series in general, but the writing is just interesting enough to keep my attention. One has to lower one's standards for these things.
Senator Kerry calls this a "tragic milestone," and the most catastrophic of the administration's mistakes made so far. Regardless of his mistakenly voting for the war at the time, he's right. For him to turn against the Iraq war is a flip-flop I would be happy with. Hopefully he has an exit strategy, even though he's not telling us about it at the moment.
This is why Bush must be defeated in November. I realize the economy is an important issue, but compared to 1000++ dead soldiers? Come on. Not to mention 7,000++ wounded, and the 11,000++ estimated by the Iraq Body Count . This is a slam dunk, as George Tenet would say.
Prediction: if Bush is [re]elected, the U.S. will engage in pre-emptive war against Iran and/or North Korea. Is that really what we want?
