Never fails
Having been a fan of the tv show as long as I can remember, I have read this, comprising Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers and Better Than Life, dozens and dozens of times - and can quote great chunks.
Lister is slobbier than ever.
Rimmer is even more of an irritating worm.
The universe, time, death and reality are all their playthings - and I can only begin to imagine what Lister’s isolation on those peculiar worlds would be like.

Aspiring actor Greg Sestero meets a mysterious man named Tommy Wiseau in his acting classes with Jean Shelton. Hoping to achieve Hollywood stardom, Sestero moves to Los Angeles and signs on to appear in his buddy's project. Financed with his own money, Wiseau writes, directs and stars in "The Room," a critically maligned movie that becomes a cult classic.
There isn't a lot to say about this one. I mainly only went to see it because some people were raving about it. This for me is skirting the fine line of "based on a true story" and reality TV. I cannot watch reality TV, I find it physically distressing watching anything that awkward. That being said, I don't feel like I was missing out on much in this film, and no one else in the cinema seemed to be enjoying it either.

Lots of pictures (1 more)
Can follow celebrities
Love Instagram
I love Instagram, its great for looking at pictures of family and friends, without all the other stuff that comes from facebook. My favorite part is following celebs, and people who have been on tv shows I watch, like Big Brother and MTV reality shows. You can see what happens in their lives and if they stay or breakup with someone.

Introducing reality TV star Michael Myers!
Some people were turned off by the different style and almost humorous take on the ongoing Michael saga, but I thought it was a pleasant surprise.
Inject more young, fun actors like Busta Rhymes, Katee Sackhoff, Thomas Ian Nicholas and even Tyra Banks and what you have is a masterpiece of horror (not really, but at least something a little different).
Interesting idea to place a bunch of unknowns in Michael's childhood home as part of a reality show and watch the calamity ensue when bad things start to happen (and then the real Michael shows up).
Seems like I enjoyed more than most.

Busta rhymes kicks michael myers into a shitty remake
Contains spoilers, click to show
After H20, killed of micheal myers, the studio was like we need anethor film. So we got this. Jamie lee curtis gets killed off in thr first 5 minutes, so the next 85 minutes we folllow a jamie lee curtis rip-off, maybe not even that. Anyways what was popular back in 2002, reality t.v. shows, so we get people going into micheal myers house for dangertainment the reality tv show.
Busta rhymes is the best part and the worst part of this film. He kicks micheal myers and sends him off to rob zombie's remake. Which i will review. But this film fans should skip.

Awix (3310 KP) rated Network (1976) in Movies
Feb 16, 2018 (Updated Feb 16, 2018)
Acclaimed satirical comedy-drama; impressively prescient look at American media. Long-serving newscaster is victim of falling ratings, has breakdown and threatens to commit suicide on live TV: network execs are appalled until it transpires this has caused a spike in viewing figures, so they give him a job as a ranting news gimp.
Smartly written and well-performed; slight tendency towards speechifying rather than actual dialogue in the closing stages, but at least the speeches are good. Movie predicts rise of reality TV and collapse in news values with eerie accuracy, also the potential power of rabble-rousing TV demagogues (chief rabble-rouser does not complain about fake news, but it's a near thing). On another level, film is basically just cinema being snotty about how television is a more juvenile and morally bankrupt medium - 1976 was one of the very last years they could do this without it seeming like massive hypocrisy.
