The full reboot helped on my Roku, but I watch on my tablet a lot too, and that's where a lot of my streaming issues are, due to poor cell phone signal.

Waiting for my limited edition Blu-ray set of the three Sinbad movies to arrive from Amazon UK. Probably won't be in time for this month now, but I'm still excited for it. It'll go well with my other Harryhausen set! Of course I have them on DVD, but that's a double-dip I can live with!

I thought that was the case but hadn't looked it up--thanks for doing my research for me. :D

I have all three Sinbad movies on digital. Been planning to watch them, but haven't got around to it yet.

It took 28 days but I finished my Babylon 5 re-watch. The CGI doesn't really hold up that well but the characters and most of the stories are still solid (well except for that one storyline in season 5).

Ah, gotcha.


If it's Harryhausen, he counts for the Animation Challenge.

Quoting from the rules: "This is the challenge where any and all types of animation is welcome, computer, hand drawn, puppetry, stop motion, etc. The entire movie/show does not need to be completely animated. Something like Roger Rabbit or a Ray Harryhausen film would generally be allowed."

Hope that helps!

No problem, I host that one too so the rules are pretty clear in my head right now.

Crossover time! :)

I envy you today. Such a great film, especially the first time.

This morning, I watched the final episode of Power Rangers: Dino Super Charge, on Nicktoons. Seeing the final episode piqued my interest, and now I'd like to watch the rest of the series. Maybe I'll start with Dino Charge to see where it all began.

Anyone remember the underwater sci-fi binge Hollywood gave us in 1989? Within a few months of each other, we got Leviathan, DeepStar Six, and The Abyss. I'm thinking about subjecting myself to all three before the month is out.

Leviathan would be a great B horror film if Alien and The Thing didn't exist. It pretty much rips off it's best parts from them. Still, it has a solid cast and score, and is somewhat fun.

I'm not positive I ever saw or own DeepStar Six, but I imagine I'll be able to at least youtube it. Seems like it was received the worst of the three.

Looking forward to re-visiting The Abyss, it's been awhile.

I don't know if you would find it interesting but I just watched Deep Rising with Treat Williams and Famke Janssen. Personallly, I enjoyed the three you mentioned more and I was considering rewatching the Abyss again but I thought Deep Rising was an enjoyable addition to monsters on the ocean movies.

It won't count, as it is not TV/Movie or radio, but this is still fantasy related. Tonight, I started rereading my Dragonlance books, and right now, I am on Chapter 7 of Chronicles Volume 1: Dragons Of Autumn Twilight?

Never quite got into Dragonlance books myself, but I'm rereading David Eddings' Belgariad. About to start book three. My all time favorite fantasy series, hands down. You could list what you're reading if you wanted, but it wouldn't really count for the checklist.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but at one point, I think there was an option in the checklist for reading something that applied. Or am I thinking of another challenge. It would definitely be before I took over hosting for this challenge, though.

Winding down myself. Still have a few movies I wanted to watch but keep on finding myself picking something else. Leaning towards Pan's Labyrinth tonight but not sure I have the focus. :/ Still debating.

"The Belgariad" is one I've always meant to pick up but never have, in spite of being an active member of "The Science Fiction Book Club" for decades.

**EDIT**
I just fixed that issue by ordering the series.

Have you read "The Malloreon" - the sequel to "The Belgariad?"
**END EDIT**

I've read "The Elinium" trilogy and have the "Tamuli" series but haven't yet read it.

I have 75 or so novels awaiting my attention, one of which is the "Dragonlance" trilogy (my copy is an all-in-one volume).


The Horror Challenge has that as an option. I started a re-reading of "Dracula" a few years back and am still working on it (a few pages at a time between/around/during other books when I think about it).

Good film, but a tough choice, especially if you're tired/worn out. Being in a foreign language, that one requires my full attention for the subtitles. I have to carefully plan films like that one.
