"Solo: A Star Wars Story" (SPOILER) Review

Image
So I'm very late on putting this review out, but better late than never. This review has SPOILERS so if by some chance you have not seen this movie yet...either read and be spoiled or find a showing if you can or wait for the home media release in September. Okay, so first off let me say this is easily the best Disney Era "Star Wars" film to date, a title previously held by Rogue One  in my estimation. When I talk about "Star Wars" needing to have fresh stories but still be "Star Wars", this is a good example of what I'm looking for: an original adventure set in the SW Universe that uses the lore of that universe to create the backdrop. First, the few problems I had all of which come down to some casting  and editing  choices. The opening chase scene is well filmed but I really wish that Ron Howard and John Powell had taken a look at some of the great speed-based scenes of film history - from Ben-Hur 's chariot race to the "Star ...

Sci Fi Movie Review: "Destination Moon"

Sci-Fi Movie Review: Destination Moon (1950) Destination Moon holds a place among the Cinematic Sci-Fi Elite in terms of importance, a small cohort of films that includes Le Voyage dans la Lun  ( Trip to the Moon , 1902), Metropolis  (1927) and Star Wars  (1977). These films each ushered in a new era of cinematic science fiction. A Trip to the Moon  started the ball rolling with (at the time) dazzling special effects and creative filming methods. Metropolis  set the standard again with visuals and music, and of course, Star Wars  not only took visual effects and music to another level but began en masse  the concept of fandoms for a movie. What about Destination Moon  though? First, a little background. Destination Moon  was directed by George Pal and written by Robert A. Heinlein, one of the greatest sci-fi writers of all time. The story is both simple and (for Heinlein) unusually bland. But the movie triumphed because of the visu...

Trek Talk Tuesday #5: Space Elves (Part 1)

Image
Intro A pointy-eared stoic race with a dedication to logic and reason - these are the Vulcans. Gene Rodenberry's Space Elves are easily the most iconic alien race of the Star Trek  universe thanks to Mr. Spock. Other Vulcan characters of note include Surak, Sarek, Tuvok, and T'Pol. I have not seen Voyager  aside from a few episodes so I have no opinion of Tuvok but T'Pol is probably the least enjoyable Vulcan of the bunch. She conveys less the idea of logic and more a sense of resentment for being stuck with humans. Vulcans have always struck me as quite inconsistent as despite their professed adherence to logic they are nonetheless deeply mystical. The Enterprise  episode "The Andorian Incident" features a Vulcan Monastery, for example, and of course, we have the classic TOS episode "Amok Time" in which we learn just how violent the Vulcan mating ritual is. Granted, this is seen as logical, a releasing of emotions for an intense but short per...
