SunnyHello Nice effects though.
TeenzTen An action-packed slog
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
GJValent Thank you uber_geek. I thought that I was the only one who remembered Dweebs, and it being the obvious progenitor of TBBT. Of course, it took me five seasons of TBBT to remember it. Four nerdy, brilliant guys, and one, hot, down to earth, not so nerdy girl ? You can catch the first episode, in parts, on YouTube. Dweebs even skips the establishing scene breaks. TBBT does it with the atom animation. Dweebs does it with a Windows 3.1 style icon screen and a cursor that selects the next scene. If it had been a hit, would we have gotten two more girls to make it more like Friends, with brains ? I've been a computer tech all of my life, starting with college in 1968. That was before we landed on the moon. (Which, by the way, happened on my 19th birthday.) Another thing, check out this plot synopsis from season 1, (their only season), episode 4,'Warren is contacted by woman through instant messaging and Carey responds for him in a flirtation manner. However, not everything is as it seems. Karl is selected for a NASA software mission into space'. As a friend pointed out, introduction to Amy, plus, Howard going into space. What more proof do you want ? Anyway, a show, apparently, ahead of its time, as TBBT is one of CBS biggest hits.
rabelasian-180-104943 I loved this show but only managed to see 7 out of the 10 episodes made since CH4 only showed it once and at a ridiculous time of morning so I'd already missed the beginning of the series before I realised it was on.I recorded 6 of the episodes I saw (which I just dug out of storage and copied onto DVD for posterity ;^) ) I've managed to watch the first episode on YouTube but it's the only one there and I can't find any other episodes anywhere else so there's still two episodes I've never seen.I'd love to get my hands on copies of episodes 1-4 so I could have the full series available, better still they'd release it on DVD but I can't see that happening anytime soon.
himan-5 Ha-ha...I forgot about the vulture!!! Yes it probably didn't help viewer-ship that the name of the show was "Dweebs", though you'd think there were enough of them (us?) out there who could relate to make the show a prime-time contender.In my home the word "mulch" to describe drab, unimaginative attire is still used to this day, 12 years after it was modeled so well on the show by Carl (Stephen Tobolowsky?), one of the programmers. Man, they were cruel to him.... Not that he couldn't dish it out as well: "Death called--he wants his outfit back..." (you'd have to know Vic) That these and other quips became part of our comic dialog is a testament to Dweebs' appeal as a comedy; and we'd eagerly watch those few episodes again if they became available.
SlackerUK I too adored this show to the extent that I *still* pine for it. The characters were funny, the scripts were goods, the acting was great. I think the main problem was that no-one wanted to watch a show called "Dweebs".I would love to get my hands on some episodes for, at the time, I didn't know to record them. Sorely missed.
