Gollum’s pain begs our sympathy as his struggle is our struggle. Unfortunately, the potential logjams result in some cloudy projections for fantasy basketball owners. If you like video games, PS3 Consoles is a great buy.
I heard about this movie for years but I didn’t really care about older films when I was younger. I finally saw it and glad I did. This movie affected me in a few ways.
Remember, this review is from someone who LOVES the PS3 Consoles – my 60gb launch unit has died, suffering the “Yellow Light Of Death” error, after about 2.5 years of service.
Ron Artest – (20.3 pts, 6.5 reb, 4.3 ast, 2.3 stl) – Ron Artest may have dropped his scoring average by a few points since his last outing, but at 20 points per game, he is still very worthy of making this edition of the small forward fantasy basketball rankings. In fact, the drop in points can be directly attributed to an increase in assists, which no doubt is better for the team, and the assists are at a higher premium than points when you’re talking about most elite small forwards in the NBA. Artest is also shooting very well from the field with 44% of his shots going down.
The dialogue is extra cheesy here, so I’m thinking that they focused more on the fantastic vision of the future. But the dialogue also reflects the more “censored” time when it was created. I do wish that they had written a little better dialogue but, again, we have to not judge if we want to fully enjoy it as intended. Most of the dialogue is pretty non-serious but Dr. Edward Morbius is the exception – it felt more realistic for some reason, partly in its delivery.
The acting. Hmm, well, it’s adequate overall but far from great. It’s not that the actors are bad but it’s the simplistic script, which I found to be the film’s weakest part. The cast has several great stars. A young Leslie Nielsen plays Commander John J. Adams adequately but his character’s too serious and calm, even when Morbius is ridiculing his intelligence (it’s quite funny actually). Warren Stevens plays Lt. ‘Doc’ Ostrow great with proper emotion too!
The last time he was here, however, Arreola produced a disappointing effort in a loss to Tomasz Adamek. A win in that bout could have landed Arreola back in contention for a shot at a heavyweight title.
I felt that the film needed a serious tone to it but the producers wanted to intersperse it with some comic relief. It distracted me a little, almost as if it were another film during those scenes. Earl Holliman is one example of the comic relief. While Earl is a good actor, his character, James Dirocco, the cook, feels wrong for him because he sounds out of place with his voice and appearance – more like a hick kind of. The character, itself, played in funny scenes which felt like the Lost in Space scenes between Dr. Smith and Robot. Then there’s the way the crew acted around Altaira for her attention – too nice after she chose Adams. It just felt too out of place in the future.
The organizer has poured her heart and soul into this cause and with the help of artists and sponsors we are certain this is going to be a fun filled charity event that we can enjoy all October long. Great job!
The Kings are loaded with young talent that could emerge on the fantasy scene. The characters in the story each represent a very distinct facet of human nature. Calibration is also must, which may or may not required third-party software and tools.
