Welcome to Gaia! ::

Jeremy Irons was just way over-the-top, and Thora Birch looked like she was comatose. Pretty much everything sucked about that movie.

I tend not to like fantasy movies all that much. There was this one movie I remember seeing as a kid where some guy fought with a triple-bladed sword. Anybody know that one? I don't know if it was a good movie, but I thought it was cool that the extra blades could be fired like missiles.

Most online reviewers seem to think the Eragon movie sucks. I still haven't watched that Narnia movie yet, even though I bought the DVD back in December.

Time for a new question... if I can think of one.

I never cry over movies or TV shows or books. I don't have any idea why. But I felt like I might start crying at any second at the end of Doomsday. C'mon, if the Doctor cries... half the time, he just scowls when he's upset. You can tell he must be sad, but he doesn't look it. He just stands up very straight and frowns, I swear. In that flashback scene in "Love and Monsters," when Elton's mum died, he was just standing there kind of poker-faced.

The ending of "Planet of the Spiders" (where the Third Doctor dies and such) made me cry. It was the first time that I'd seen a Third Doctor story and I knew the actor had actually died. It was like watching and having to say goodbye as soon as I said hello. And watching the character die wasn't exactly happy (though right after he dies, it turns pretty unreal with K'anpo/Cho Je coming in and announcing the Doctor's transformation, which was pretty neat). I dunno. I just thought it was really sad. Just reading about it actually still gets to me redface

I almost cried at the end of "The Green Death" because the Doctor seemed sort of miserable after Jo decided to leave and he gave her the blue crystal.

I don't cry, for i am empty and dead inside.

However i tell emos to pull up their trousers, which will make them go home and cry themselves to sleep because they're "misunderstood." They aren't misunderstood, i understand perfectly that they look like ugly women.

Thought it was time for a new question.

I wish I could have put up some more options! There's so many good ones to choose from but I tried to get a good mix of different ends of the sci fi spectrum. Two that should have been up there also are Babylon 5 and Buffy - both of which have GREAT opening themes!

And yes, I missed out Who. We all know it's opening theme(s) are great!

Oh and my choice is the old Battlestar Galactica. The show could be obnoxious but the theme tune nearly makes me cry it's so dramatic!

Well, out of the choices there, I was thinking it'd be a toss-up between ST:TNG, BSG (original), and Buck Rogers. But I wasn't really sure I remembered the Buck Rogers theme, so I went on youtube and watched this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77H5nHdcyQM Okay, so that's not really the intro for the TV show, but still... the song with lyrics is obnoxious, in that Enterprise kind of way. And what are Erin Grey and that other woman doing... yoga?!

I remember that Greatest American Hero show Eirwyn mentioned. That had a pretty good one. I'm surprised I still remember the chorus after all these years!

I guess my top pick would probably be the theme song for Robotech (sure, the story was kind of screwed up by trying to tie three unrelated anime series together, but anyway...). And my guilty pleasure pick would be the opening for Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors.

Some other theme songs worth considering (actually, I think most of these are crap, but the videos are sort of fun to look back on):

Into the Labyrinth
Land of the Lost (v.1) and (v.2)
Science Ninja Team Gatchaman
The Tomorrow People
V
Voyagers!

No, that isn't it. My Dad used to watch that one, though. smile
Hey, here it is! STARCOPS! Yup, that's definately it! Kind of a short-lived series, I think.

EDIT: No, look at THIS one. Better quality, & it's the 1st episode & has the entire theme as well as a cool double murder opening to the plot--the crimes mirror each other, one on Earth & one in space.
