I remember trying to watch this about 11 or so years ago, and turning it off after about an hour because of how middling it was - suffice to say my thoughts haven't really changed. Can't even begin to fathom what people think this has over 𝘋𝘶𝘮𝘣 & 𝘋𝘶𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳. I admit there's a pretty terrific analog in here about all these deplorable, delusional men coming together in their shittiness while trying to fool this poor woman into loving them with increasingly ludicrous schemes - but it isn't funny enough to justify waiting until the last act to realize that, especially with this crawling runtime. Let me clarify: Ben Stiller beating up the coked-out dog was *hysterical*, and it does have a handful of other notably funny moments but they're spread thin. The title character is given absolutely nothing to work with besides Diaz's capable talent despite having "something about" her, but I think that inadvertently works given how she's effectively a nonentity template for these guys to project their naïve sociopathic fantasies onto. Sure as hell won't knock the cast though, they're all game playing a troupe of model Farrelly goofballs. Honestly there are just... better comedies out there, dudes - even by these guys.

Okay, when I started this I was probably 35% interested in the ending (getting Sespian back on the throne if possible, the guys getting their bounties removed, Sicarius and Amaranthe finding each other after thinking the other was dead) and 65% interested in Amaranthe and Sicarius getting their night together that was mentioned in the previous book and finishing what had been in the works since probably book 1 or 2.
I think there was a little too much discussion in the first 40% or so, and with me eager for my two favourite characters to find each other again I may have skipped a few bits though I don't think I missed anything exciting.
There was a lot of action in this one as everything reached its pinnacle: outing bad guys, running into gang members, the return of monsters...it was full on to say the least.
But for me the best bit has to be the epilogue *grins like an idiot* and I'm sure you can figure out what happens in it.
One thing made me almost cry but I wont spoil it by telling you what.
A great ending to the series and I cant wait to read more about Sicarius and Amaranthe's adventure!

classics never die, unlike graboids
I first saw this via those discs you get when you used to first buy a DVD player, a handful of B movies and this hidden gem, this film convinced me to give B movies a second chance, Tremors is made up of a small cast of good actors, it takes place in the middle of a desert in a nowhere town, two guys going about their business until something starts killing people, what follows is B movie gold, well worth a watch.

Omg amazing. I am in love with this series already.. the characters and plot.. I love what appears to be the start of romance between a trio..I honestly have fallen in love with 2 of the guys so I'm not sure which way this will go. I find myself feeling horrible for Shade at some places and in other places I wanted to go through the computer and hurt her. lol And a couple of times I wanted to throw my kindle against the wall. Lol, that is when you know the book is awesome. Starting the 2nd one now woohoo.

Sound Cast
Wow, just wow...
What can i say about this fantastic tv show? The first season shocked the world by becoming a massive hit with sci-fi and horror fans alike. This young cast has amazing chemistry and the writers created something special. It took me on a trip down memory lane reminding me of things like the goonies and stand by me crossed over with alien and poltergeist. Season 2 picks up exactly where season 1 ended and continues to deliver a cracking story and I look forward to what these guys can do next.
