Blade Runner #1, Aliens #2, followed in no particular order by Preditor 1, Terminator 1, Star Wars 1 (for the f/x, at the time) Highlander 1 was fantasy (and I liked it alot) highlander 2 was one of the worst movies I have seen. Ladyhawk was good fantasy.. Outland was pretty good. I kinda liked They Live (carpender's remake) but I see why you don't like it.. The END of both Abyss and TR was to Happy and unbelievable, of course in TR he may still be locked into his virtual trip.. which makes the unbelievable stuff better. Like Alien alot too.. Alien 3 on the other hand, poor!.. of course you must be informed that I really like "Dark Star" and Evil Dead 3, army of darkness.. So you have to scale my opinons by these added facts.. StarGate was a new movie idea.. Liked it. Puppet Masters was good, but just had something missing. (also do they have to hatch like Alien?) I want my escapism movies to be violent and full of action ( not to mention sharon!) What Can I say? Guess I was twisted by all of those Violent Bugs Bunny/ Road Runner cartoons I saw when I was a kid <G>! (had to buy Jerasic Park, despite it's anti-technology windging math professer). -Tom-

You shouldn't be telling people you want violent escapism, Tom. Before long you'll be arrested and executed for being a violent, abusive man, and then Arnold will be shut down when you say you were influenced by him! (And just think what will happen to poor Chuck Jones!) Paul – wearing my black construction paper funeral suit

That WOULD be bad.. Hate to see Arnold be put away cause of me! ( alas I ain't an violent guy, I just am an action film junky! As for chuck, If someone wanted to do him in, an falling anvil would be appropreate, but he would probably just get up again making accordion type noises and keep going!<G> -Tom-

"Do they have to hatch …?" Read the book! It's most excellent and will answer all your questions 🙂 DJ On AP from Queens, the thrill and excitement of the Big Apple Where a little paranoia keeps you healthy and sane …

I read the book.. I don't remember an egg anology.. They were using a master cell and creating Slug like creatures, I thought.. The eggs (with shell and all) looked just like ALIEN's.. Thats not what I remembered (I could be wrong, I haven't read it in a while<G>.. If you say they were eggs I will believe you! and take back the critism!) -Tom- (It is a good book!)
