Rules: Dates: Dusk June 30-Dawn August 1st
Movies/TV shows should be labeled sci-fi or fantasy from either imdb.com or allmovie.com. Other labels don't matter as long as there is at least a sci-fi or fantasy label from one of those sites. Action/Sci-fi would be fine.
If anyone has a problem with something someone watches or just wants an opinion on if it's sci-fi or fantasy or not, ask here.
Sci-Fi/Fantasy documentaries are allowed but not DVD featurettes/interviews. Documentaries include UFO and alien abduction type shows.
As with the other challenges, the lists must be numbered or it won't count.
Use any counting method you prefer, as prize determination does not depend on number of items watched.
3 wild cards for all. Use for those shows you want to watch but know they really don't count but they're pretty close or borderline to counting.
Watching the movie with the commentary will count as an entry.
Watching multiple versions(theatrical and director's cut) of the same movie will also count.
Exceptions: 1: The Tarzan films are eligible to watch and count for the watch list, but not for the check list.
2. Superhero films. If they do not have a sci-fi/fantasy tag, they count for the watch list, but not for the check list.
Audio:
Sci-fi/Fantasy Radio
I'm treating audio harshly since this is primarily a movie/tv challenge. That being said, one episode, 4 hours with commercials, of Coast to Coast counts as one entry. It's the same format for TV, only doubled. The topic of the show has to be sci-fi/fantasy related, so it shouldn't be that much of a problem with Coast to Coast.
If you're listening to something without commercials, or can skip them, you're looking at 3 hours of audio for one entry.
1/4 entry = 45 minutes without commercials and 60 with commercials.
1/2 entry = 90 minutes without commercials and 120 with commercials.
3/4 entry = 135 minutes without commercials and 180 with commercials.
1 entry = 180 minutes without commercials and 240 with commercials.

Gobear's 2024 Sci-Fi/ Fantasy Challenge

First-Time Viewing: | Blu-Ray: 2 | DVD: | TV: 3 | Streaming 1|Theatre:0 |Commentaries Listened To: 0
June 30
First-Time Viewing: | Blu-Ray: 2 | DVD: | TV: 3 | Streaming 1|Theatre:0 |Commentaries Listened To: 0
1. Liquid Sky (1982)--Criterion--Aliens arrive on Earth for heroin, but settle for orgasms instead.
July 2
2. Enemy Mine (1985)--TV--This feels like a sci-fi update of a WWII movie. A human soldier and an alien are marooned together on a derelict world where they have to band together to survive.
3. Virtuosity (1995)--TV--This virtual reality thriller, a relic from the 1990s, centers on a wrongly convicted cop, played by Denzel Washington, who is recruited to chase an online character that has been unleashed into the real world. Russell Crowe delivers a standout performance as the monstrous SID 6.7.
July 4.
4. The Girl With All The Gifts (2016) --Blu-Ray--.Using the same "fungus turns humans into zombies" idea from The Last of Us, this movie focuses on Melanie, a young girl who is part of the second generation of fungus-infected humans who retain their humanity;
July 6
5. The Angry Red Planet (1959)--TV--For low-budget drive-in fare, this isn't bad, although the red effects depicting Mars are distracting.
6. Pitch Black (2000)--Blu-Ray--It's been a while since i've watched this Vin Diesel flick and it holds up.
July 10
7. 1984 (1984)--MGM+--In this turbulent election year, dystopian fiction has an unsettling resemblance to reality. Richard Burton delivers a chilling final performance as the ruthless Inner Party member O'Brien, while John Hurt's portrayal of the doomed Winston Smith deserved an Oscar nomination for Best Actor.
8. Them! (1954)--TV--Them is without queston one of the most effective and unsettling horror/sci-fi movies from the 1950s. 70 years laler. the giant ant effects hold up well.
July 11
8. Children of Men (2006)--MGM+--It's 2027 and cicivilization has collapsed after 20 years of global human infertility, leaving Britain as a brutal police state. This is a a work of genius, one of the best science fiction movies of the past quarter-century..
July 12.
9. Dreamcatcher (2003)--Streaming--A poor movie from a subpar Stephen King novel.
10. Ghosts of Mars (2001)--Streaming--Even though this is a really bad movie, it's a fun watch
July 19
11. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023)--MGM+--This fun fantasy adventure was thoroughly enjoyable, despite its reliance on familiar character archetypes like the mage, thief, warrior, and shapeshifter. However, the clever dialogue and strong performances elevate the film, making it a genuinely entertaining experience. Given the director's deft touch, I hope he will adapt a Discworld novel in the future.
July 20.
12. Gorgo (1961)--YouTube--The premise of Irish salvage explorers discovering a baby kaiju and bringing it to London, only for the mother to arrive searching for her lost offspring, has the potential to be an engaging creature feature. However, this particular execution is a snooze, especially compared to more character-driven monster movies like Cloverfield and Godzilla Minus Zero. The film's introduction of three characters is ultimately abandoned in favor of scenes depicting a man in a monster costume destroying cardboard London landmarks - an approach that fails to provide the character development and psychological depth of better films in this genre. I would have enjoyed Gorgo much more if I had watched it for the first time as a child, but for an adult viewer, the lack of compelling characters and overreliance on monster spectacle renders it unengaging.
July 25
13. Nope (2022)--TV--Nope was the first film in years to give me nightmares after seeing it, so by horror movie metrics it's a success. Jordan Peele is a fantastic director with an unerring sense of how to shock audiences. Keke Palmer gives an Oscar-worthy performance as the co-owner of a Hollywood horse ranch who discovers an aerial predator stalking her property. The metaphors here are obvious: the movie business devours people and spits them out If you give it your attention it will feed on you. Nope is a masterpiece and I need to watch it again. It's the kind of movie one really needs to discuss with a friend afterward.

Re: 17th Annual Sci-Fi/Fantasy Challenge List Thread
Title in BLACK - DVD/Blu Ray from my personal collection.
Title in RED - Seen on Youtube
Title in PURPLE - Seen on a streaming channel
For TV episodes I will count 1 entry for every two hour-long episodes (40-60 minutes) or 4 half-hour episodes (25-35 minutes)
June 30 - Dusk
1. Threshold, S1 (2005) Episodes: Trees Made of Glass, parts 1 & 2
July 1
2. The Ark, S1 (2023) Episodes: Everyone Wanted to Be on This Ship / Like it Touched the Sun
3. Infiniti, S1 (2022) Episodes: La Tour du Silence / La Tour de Babel
July 2
4. The Ark, S1 (2023) Episodes: Get Out and Push / We Weren't Supposed to Be Awake
5. Infiniti, S1 (2022) Episodes: Premier Éclair / Soleil Noir
6. Infiniti, S1 (2022) Episodes: Ainsi Parlait Zarathoustra / De l'Autre Côte du Miroir. This French miniseries had an interesting premise but it was just S-L-O-W as hell. The story could have been told in a two hour movie.

July 4
8. La Brea, S1 (2023) Episodes: Pilot / Day Two

10. Journey to the Center of the Earth (1977) Another adaptation of the Verne novel, it does add an interesting element, that in the center of the Earth time moves differently but does very little with that premise.
July 11-3 - Away on travel, didn't see anything
July 14
11. The Ark, S1 (2023) Episodes: A Slow Death is Worse / Every Single Person Matters
12. The Ark, S1 (2023) Episodes: The Painful Way / Hoping for Forever
13. The Ark, S1 (2023) Episodes: The Last Thing You Ever Do / Everybody Wins This first season was a winner, the premise has been done to death (humanity escaping a doomed planet) but its so well done and entertaining that every episode is a different near-death catastrophe. Characters are shallow but at least they're not annoying.
July 15
14. 12 Monkeys, S1 (2015) Episodes: Splinter / Mentally Divergent
15. The Body Stealers (1969) Bland British alien invasion flick.
16. Threshold, S1 (2005) Episodes: Blood of the Children / The Burning
July 16
17. 12 Monkeys, S1 (2015) Episodes: Cassandra Complex / Atari
18. Day of the Triffids (1963) Based on the John Wyndham novel. Space spores grow into walking plants that eat people.
July 17
19. Elizabeth Harvest (2018) A wealthy doctor keeps a chilling secret from his beautiful young wife.
July 18
20. The Thing From Another World (1951) A classic.
July 19
21. 12 Monkeys, S1 (2015) Episodes: The Night Room / The Red Forest
July 20
22. Pulse (1988) Very similar to Poltergeist, a family is besieged by an electrical pulse that takes over their home and attacks them.
23. Swamp Thing, S3 (1992) Episodes: Easy Prey / The Handyman / The Hurting / The Chains of Forever
July 21
24. 12 Monkeys, S1 (2015) Episodes: Keys / Yesterday
25. King Kong vs Godzilla (1963) Not to be confused with Godzilla Vs Kong (2021). This is the American version of this film, re-edited from the original Japanese version.
26. King Kong Escapes (1967) Kong faces dinosaurs and even a mechanical version of himself. An evil scientist is behind it all. There's even a Fay Wray-like character who befriends Kong.
July 22
27. The Scorpion King (2002) Dwayne Johnson when he was billed simply as The Rock. But forget him, watch this for Kelly Hu who looks fantastic in this flick. The story has absolutely NOTHING to do with The Mummy films from where the Scorpion King character comes from and just comes off as a third-rate Conan rip-off.
July 23
28. 12 Monkeys, S1 (2015) Episodes: Tomorrow / Divine Move
July 24
29. Beowulf: Return to the Shieldlands, S1 (2016) Episodes: The Return / The Gathering
July 25
30. 12 Monkeys, S1 (2015) Episodes: Shonin / Paradox
July 26
31. Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) *Seen during current theatrical run*. If there ever was a movie that could be labelled as "mindless fun", this is it.
July 27
32. 12 Monkeys, S1/S2 (2015/16) Episodes: Arms of Mine / Year of the Monkey
July 28
33. Beowulf: Return to the Shieldlands, S1 (2016) Episodes 3 & 4
Title in RED - Seen on Youtube
Title in PURPLE - Seen on a streaming channel
For TV episodes I will count 1 entry for every two hour-long episodes (40-60 minutes) or 4 half-hour episodes (25-35 minutes)
June 30 - Dusk
1. Threshold, S1 (2005) Episodes: Trees Made of Glass, parts 1 & 2
July 1
2. The Ark, S1 (2023) Episodes: Everyone Wanted to Be on This Ship / Like it Touched the Sun
3. Infiniti, S1 (2022) Episodes: La Tour du Silence / La Tour de Babel
July 2
4. The Ark, S1 (2023) Episodes: Get Out and Push / We Weren't Supposed to Be Awake
5. Infiniti, S1 (2022) Episodes: Premier Éclair / Soleil Noir
6. Infiniti, S1 (2022) Episodes: Ainsi Parlait Zarathoustra / De l'Autre Côte du Miroir. This French miniseries had an interesting premise but it was just S-L-O-W as hell. The story could have been told in a two hour movie.

July 4
8. La Brea, S1 (2023) Episodes: Pilot / Day Two

2023: 53
Goal: 31
Total: 57
First Time Views: 41
☼ = first time viewing
Movies rated out of 5 stars (*****) based solely on my personal enjoyment.
June 30th (after dusk)
1. ☼ Late Night with the Devil (2023): Puts a fresh spin on the old "deal with the devil" and demonic possession stories. **** Wildcard #1
July 1st
1.5. ☼ X-Men '97 (2024): S1E5
2. ☼ House of the Dragon (2024): S2E3
July 2nd
3-4. ☼ X-Men '97 (2024): S1E6-10
4.5. ☼ The Boys (2024): S4E5
July 3rd
5. ☼ Dead Boy Detectives (2024): S1E2
6. ☼ Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024): Hard to believe Fury Road was 9 years ago. A prequel to that didn't seem like a movie I needed. But while not up to that movie's level (but how many movies are?), this is still good. I particularly enjoyed Chris Hemsworth as the villain. ****
July 4th
7. ☼ The Acolyte (2024): S1E6; ☼ Dead Boy Detectives (2024): S1E3
8. ☼ Abigail (2024): It seemed kind of silly to make the first half a mystery about what's going on, when all the ads (and the poster) made it clear the ballerina girl was a vampire. But once we got that out of the way, it was a fun romp. ***1/2 Wildcard #2
July 5th
9. ☼ Inside Out 2 (2024): While it didn't hit me as hard as the first one, there's still a lot new that this brings to the table. I liked the fighting character with the lame finishing move
Or as Ennui would say: "meh" (my teen niece has pretty much embodied that character for the last 6 years). ****
10. ☼ Robot Dreams (2023): Despite the cartoonish look, this was surprisingly deep and rather sad. ****1/2
July 6th
11. ☼ Dead Boy Detectives (2024): S1E4-5.
July 7th
12. ☼ I Saw the TV Glow (2024): I didn't really care for the previous movie by this writer/director (We're All Going to the World's Fair). I thought it's heart was in the right place, but otherwise bored me. This was a lot better ... great visual aesthetic (really nailed the 90s feel), interesting story, and great soundtrack. While the trans allegory doesn't have anything to do with my life, the themes of loneliness and alienation still hit me hard. **** Wildcard #3
July 8th
13. ☼ House of the Dragon (2024): S2E4; ☼ Dead Boy Detectives (2024): S1E6
July 10th
14. ☼ The Boys (2024): S4E6; ☼ Dead Boy Detectives (2024): S1E7
July 11th
15. ☼ Dead Boy Detectives (2024): S1E8; ☼ The Acolyte (2024): S1E7
16. Godzilla Minus One (2023): Best Godzilla movie ever? It may be. Watching on a small screen doesn't do it justice, but thankfully my first watch was under better conditions (just rewatching with relatives). ****1/2
July 14th
17. ☼ Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024): An exciting movie that looks great. It just suffers from being "part 1" of a clearly bigger story (and not being complete in and of itself). An aside gripe (not at all exclusive to this movie) ... what is it with movies set in the future where all the "modern" tech works perfectly fine (not to mention cars starting up with old gasoline). I just had a tv crap out on me. It was 15 years old, so I thought I got a good run out of it. But that seems pitiful compared to all the electronics hundreds of years old still running fine. ****
18. ☼ Scavengers Reign (2023): S1E1-4
July 15th
19. ☼ Max and Molly in the Future (2023): Cute for what it was, although the rom-com elements (which were the central story) weren't really my thing. I do appreciate the low-budget indie effort (which were playing along with the credits). And nice to see Aristotle Athari ... he seemed really underused on SNL. ***
20. ☼ Monolith (2022): IMDb doesn't list "horror" as a genre for this, but it really should. I found it pretty engrossing despite having only 1 onscreen character, and most of the movie being dialog.Though like a lot of other recent low-budget horror/thrillers it left so much unexplained that it was a bit of a let-down. And also like a lot of other recent movies I've seen, the story ended up seeming metaphorical (rather than what we were seeing being what it's really about). ***1/2
July 17th
21. ☼ The Boys (2024): S4E7; ☼ The Acolyte (2024): S1E8
July 18th
22. ☼ La Chimera (2023): Not just the setting in the past, but it really felt like an Italian movie made in the 70s/early 80s. It had an early Fellini vibe, where it wasn't so much about the story but just following around a strange group of characters in their lives. ****
23. ☼ Scavengers Reign (2023): S1E5-6; ☼ House of the Dragon (2024): S2E5
July 19th
24. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001): Extended edition ... first view in quite a while. The first movie felt most faithful to the book of the three. There's no Tom Bombadil, but let's be honest ... he probably wouldn't have worked and it's already a 3 hour movie. Visuals still hold up, showing the care the filmmakers took to make this and all the real locations, sets and practical effects (not just CGI). *****
July 20th
25. ☼ Kite Man: Hell Yeah! (2024): S1E1-2; ☼ The Boys (2024): S4E8
July 21st
26. ☼ The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002): Less plot, more spectacle. Which was probably the best way to adapt the book. *****
July 22nd
27. ☼ Scavengers Reign (2023): S1E7; ☼ House of the Dragon (2024): S2E6
28. ☼ Picard (2023): S3E1-2
29. ☼ Doom Patrol (2023): S4E7-8
July 23rd
30-31. ☼ The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003): Extended edition, and yes ... at almost 4 and half hours I'm counting it as 2. Didn't intend to watch the whole thing in one night, but I just couldn't stop myself. Although the Blu Ray break is a great cliff-hanger stopping points. Grond! Grond! Grond! *****
July 24th
32. ☼ Picard (2023): S3E3-4
33. ☼ IF (2024): Sweet and well-meaning, even if it lacked the emotional weight for me that it was trying so hard for (having both the main girl's parents get deadly illnesses seemed a bit overkill). What a vocal cast though ... and "introducing" Brad Pitt! ***1/2
July 25th
34. ☼ Doom Patrol (2023): S4E9-10.
35. ☼ The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster (2023): Frankenstein in the Hood! Which makes this sound like a lot more fun than it was. Don't look for any logic in the story, but at least they let the movie go full out gory horror. ***
36. Lifeforce (1985): Introducing Mathilda May. Why hello there, Mathilda!
A fun wacky movie, that despite its graphic nature actually plays a lot like old-fashioned sci-fi/horror of the 50s and 60s (which makes sense since Tobe Hooper remade one of them for his followup to this). ****
July 26th
37. ☼ Kite Man: Hell Yeah! (2024): S1E3; ☼ Scavengers Reign (2023): S1E8-10.
38. ☼ Picard (2023): S3E5-6
39. The Fly (1958): I still prefer the Cronenberg remake, but this is still fantastic ... especially given the content limitations of the 1950s. Poor Dandelo. I still don't understand why Andre wasn't ready with some lab animals, but instead has to toss in the loved family cat for the first animal test. Jerk
****1/2
40. The Brood (1979): Speaking of Cronenberg. Cool to hear Howard Shore's first score (after watching the LotR trilogy recently). His intense orchestral style really elevates the movie (and the other Cronenberg movies he scored). This movie makes so much sense when realizing Cronenberg made it in the aftermath of a bitter divorce. Taken on its own the plot is silly, but looking at the bigger picture the movie is a powerful experience. ****
41. First Men on the Moon (1964): I'm a huge Ray Harryhausen fan, but to me this is one of his lesser movies. Not his fault though ... the alien sets and creatures are great. I just didn't care for all the slapstick comedy, and the character of Prof. Cavor was unrelentingly annoying. Surprising at first to see Nigel Kneale wrote the screenplay, since his work has such a serious and intelligent aspect to it. But then I see they brought in another writer to "jazz" up the script, because the producer though fantasy and science fiction movies were too serious. ***
July 27th
42. ☼ Scavengers Reign (2023): S1E11-12.; ☼ Forbidden Science (2009): S1E1-2.
43. Sleeping Beauty (1959): While not one of my favorite Disney animated classics, it's a really striking movie. The animation style is done to look like medieval tapestries. And instead of the Broadway-style music you associate with Disney, this is classical (Tchaikovsky specifically). ****
44. Tron (1982): Screw you guys ... I still like this movie
Even though the CGI is primitive, I think it fits with the early 80s aesthetic and still looks cool. Especially since the setting is an artificial one, where many examples of life-like CGI from a lot later than this look cringe-worthy today. ***1/2
45. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E1-2.
46. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E3-4.
July 28th
47. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E5-6.
48. Flash Gordon (1980): I loved this movie as a kid. I remember my parents rented the VHS for a week, and I watched it every day. Must have driven my parents nuts, and they were probably hearing "Flash! Ah-ah!!" in their sleep. ****
July 29th
49. ☼ Doom Patrol (2023): S4E11-12.
50. The Matrix (1999): Watching this after Lord of the Rings has me thinking ... why is Elrond being such a dick? ****1/2
51. ☼ House of the Dragon (2024): S2E7; ☼ The Grimm Variations (2024): S1E1
July 30th
52. ☼ Picard (2023): S3E7-8
53. The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951): Klaatu Barada Nikto indeed! ****1/2
54. Forbidden Planet (1956): *****
July 31st
55. ☼ Picard (2023): S3E9-10
56. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E7-8
57. Logan's Run (1976): Great first half, but a let down once Logan gets "outside". You'd think he could've found something more interesting than a doddering cat lady (old man). ***1/2

39. The Fly (1958): I still prefer the Cronenberg remake, but this is still fantastic ... especially given the content limitations of the 1950s. Poor Dandelo. I still don't understand why Andre wasn't ready with some lab animals, but instead has to toss in the loved family cat for the first animal test. Jerk
****1/240. The Brood (1979): Speaking of Cronenberg. Cool to hear Howard Shore's first score (after watching the LotR trilogy recently). His intense orchestral style really elevates the movie (and the other Cronenberg movies he scored). This movie makes so much sense when realizing Cronenberg made it in the aftermath of a bitter divorce. Taken on its own the plot is silly, but looking at the bigger picture the movie is a powerful experience. ****
41. First Men on the Moon (1964): I'm a huge Ray Harryhausen fan, but to me this is one of his lesser movies. Not his fault though ... the alien sets and creatures are great. I just didn't care for all the slapstick comedy, and the character of Prof. Cavor was unrelentingly annoying. Surprising at first to see Nigel Kneale wrote the screenplay, since his work has such a serious and intelligent aspect to it. But then I see they brought in another writer to "jazz" up the script, because the producer though fantasy and science fiction movies were too serious. ***

42. ☼ Scavengers Reign (2023): S1E11-12.; ☼ Forbidden Science (2009): S1E1-2.
43. Sleeping Beauty (1959): While not one of my favorite Disney animated classics, it's a really striking movie. The animation style is done to look like medieval tapestries. And instead of the Broadway-style music you associate with Disney, this is classical (Tchaikovsky specifically). ****
44. Tron (1982): Screw you guys ... I still like this movie
Even though the CGI is primitive, I think it fits with the early 80s aesthetic and still looks cool. Especially since the setting is an artificial one, where many examples of life-like CGI from a lot later than this look cringe-worthy today. ***1/245. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E1-2.
46. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E3-4.

47. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E5-6.
48. Flash Gordon (1980): I loved this movie as a kid. I remember my parents rented the VHS for a week, and I watched it every day. Must have driven my parents nuts, and they were probably hearing "Flash! Ah-ah!!" in their sleep. ****

49. ☼ Doom Patrol (2023): S4E11-12.
50. The Matrix (1999): Watching this after Lord of the Rings has me thinking ... why is Elrond being such a dick? ****1/2
51. ☼ House of the Dragon (2024): S2E7; ☼ The Grimm Variations (2024): S1E1
July 30th
52. ☼ Picard (2023): S3E7-8
53. The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951): Klaatu Barada Nikto indeed! ****1/2
54. Forbidden Planet (1956): *****
July 31st
55. ☼ Picard (2023): S3E9-10
56. ☼ Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964): S1E7-8
57. Logan's Run (1976): Great first half, but a let down once Logan gets "outside". You'd think he could've found something more interesting than a doddering cat lady (old man). ***1/2
