`` Liar and a Dreamer''

 So I got round to watching this  Brooks has made better-its quite meta but then brooks always is The virgin alarm is interesting - I bet that won't fly in the sequel Pizza the hut was amusingly hideous

 Forgettable Ferrell remakes a 1970s show Why is a middle aged professor listening to show tunes funny for anyone but an 11 year old Ferrell's character smokes a pipe  You can have decent dinosaur effects with a budget of 100 million Ana Friel is still pretty This film takes place at a particular spot of dinosaur science when they thought the T-Rex was smarter than it was 

 I watched this on a recommendation of Conor Fitzgerald  Meeker I recognize from paths of Glory- I learn he was married to Salome Jens- the female changeling from Star Trek Deep Space Nine. Meeker is a fine actor. He is physically imposing- I can see why the censors felt compelled to cut a lot of the fighting and violence. Meeker does it too well Hammer slaps his way into getting what he wants. A teen bullies dream  The violence is hard. There is an an attempted mugging/murder on Hammer - and Hammer kills the man  This film left me uneasy and unsettled. It feels raw even after nearly 3 quarters of a century. There is a lot of Noir in Magnum P.I Magnum riffs, and rattles to the beat of Noir. You could even seen a similar relationship with Hammer and his mechanic, as TC and Magnum. People are wearing Hawaiian shirts Even the what'sit could be from Magnum P.I- Indeed Meeker is almost a facial hair free Tom Selleck  So it feels familiar but it is colder, sharper and...

 1937-2025 Husband- Actor- UCLA graduate Sometime beau of Fay Dunaway  An Actor, who graced Deep Space Nine, Fraiser and Buffy  In Frasier ``a Word to the WiseGuy'' Dr. Niles Crane : You see, last week, my lady got on the wrong side of Larry Law, and since then, certain, shall you say, complications have arisen. And now things are hot, hot, hot. And we hear you're the man to turn on the air conditionin'. Jerome Belasco : I sense you're a film buff, Dr. Crane. Deep Space Nine: Duet Marritza : I am alive. I will always be alive! It's Marritza who's dead! Marritza, who was good for nothing but cowering under his bunk and weeping like a woman. Who every night covered his ears because he couldn't bear to hear the screaming... for mercy... of the Bajorans...

  This is was different... I remember watching Moonlighting on its first run- and I remember seeing repeats at 11 am on weekdays during the 1990s. I watched the pilot with Robyn once Cybil Sheppard is radiant. The show makes no bones of this- Her character Maddie is a former model. The pilot opens with a montage of Sheppard's magazine covers. Strangely her character once she discovers she is penniless refuses point blank to go back to modelling - I get the feeling a contemporary  TV show would dive deeper into that reluctance  Sheppard changes costume a lot.  I finished this with a lot of respect for Sheppard-If for no other reason her climbing in high heels  She is great. It is interesting to see a female protagonist after watching Magnum, and Simon and Simon  Willis I found hard to take. The way he delivers dialogue I assumed he was doing coke  We have a comic Italian chef breaking plates. Which could be pilfered and exchanged for money  We also...

  Okay there are spoilers here I am going to work backwards here-I will give the positives first I did enjoy seeing 13's cameo I did like that Jodie Whittaker was written properly I did very much enjoy Archie Panjabi as the Rani. I think caught got the spirit of the character perfectly Anita Dobson should have done more comedy. I was moved by the discussion of living a life  of childlessness which is often unwanted. I thought the Belinda was well written as a mother- This is the Lungbarrow story It looks great I disliked BBC London- Its bright and clean. Everyone can afford a house. It is never raining.  I loathe Billie Tyler being teased as the Dr- Yes I have heard the speculation that this the Bad Wolf or such. I don't care. Move on-move on.  I dislike Unit having laser beams to fire at CGI. They are better when they are grunts.  What the hell was the plot? They had made a deal with the god of wishes to create one man's perfect world. Eventually doubt would co...
