Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
What on earth I just saw?
This is perhaps the worst Star Trek movie ever made and even the 2009 movie is better than this. It seems that Paramount wants another hero/war film and not a movie that will promote a better future and follow the true story of the Trek time line. By 24th century technology hasn't develop too much and Enterprise has to send the second officer in charge, Spok, into a suicide mission to save an ancient, far-away civilization. RPV's (Remotedly Piloted Vehicles) that are in use by the last decades of 20th century have disappear by 24th? Very convenient, but on the other hand we have a starship that can submerge and fly to the stars without a problem!! Wow great technology...It looks like an anime I used to watch when I was a child called Blue Noah, but there at least was a submarine going to space. Also some scenes looks like they are from other movies especially when a Klingon patrol ship hunts the shuttle, it reminds me of the hunting scene of Star Wars 2 when TIE fighters hunt down the X-wing rebel fighters that going to destroy the Death Star!!! Do you remember it J.J? And then what about altering history itself? Khan in the original story of Star Trek is found aboard the Botany Bay. Now he is just an alive, free-mad man and his fellow supporters are hiding inside cryogenic new-super-range-torpedoes! Again wow. And how the hell is Khan supposed to take control of the Enterprise, by remote control? And of course he can even have the only cure for somehow unknown disease that (again) the medical science hasn't advance at all by 24th century. Perhaps for Paramount it would be much better to set the story at some point where a war rages on. Another great scene is the human torpedoes of Khan and Kirk! It is known to all that a human body cannot survive at such a great speed in space. But wait, J.J Abrams has the solution: human-torpedo-suit. And what about the star ships? Mixed from Constitution class (Enterprise) to a complex design of Excelsior and Sovereign class (admirals starship), ships that not only are years beyond the time line the movie takes part but also they were made to replace obsolete technology ships. And for the end I kept the worst scene of the movie. Kirk trying to save the Enterprise enters the engineer room totally flood with radioactive energy and of course survives by a medical trick of Bones...err sorry I mean Abrams! Perhaps J.J Abrams would like to make it look like "Star Trek II:Wrath of Khan" but at the end he only manages to 'wake up' Khan from the grave and make him (Khan) hunt him (Abrams) to where no Man has gone before.
Deadly Games (1995)
Good action, interesting plot
The plot: Guss makes a video game with him as a hero, his ex-wife as a partner and all the people that bring trouble to his life as villains, including his father Jordan (played by Christopher Lloyd) as the boss but re-named as Jackal in the game.When an experiment goes wrong, the villains become real and Gus with Lauren has to face them in order to finish the game. The series was entertaining enough for someone who loves Sci-Fi with good special effects and interesting plot. The act was good with James Calvert and Cynthia Gibb catching the roles very well and they also have some pretty good quotes that made the all concept enjoyable, at least I enjoyed very much :)! The series didn't last for another season probably because of the small interesting at the moment for sci-fi series. Remember at the moment where aired 3 sci-fi series: 1)Star Trek Deep Space Nine 2) Star Trek Voyager 3) Babylon 5 and with Star Trek TNG ending in 1994, there was no room for Deadly Games. Although some say that the series was bad, compared to those mentioned above, but if it was aired in another period it will had last longer than one season.
"Deadly Games" aired in 2003 from Makedonia TV in northern Greece, which showed all 12 episodes
Mitsi-Hosta (2001)
The best comedy show in Greece
Giorgos Mitsikostas is a well known showman in Greece for his comedy shows in Greek television doing the voices (mimic) of many politicians and other, well known people in Greece and not only Greeks, thus making his program very enjoyable. The most favorite is when he does Giorgos Georgiou, a Greek sports journalist with his amazing voice and his toothless appearance. Overall is a hilarious show, standing not only on Giorgos Mitsikostas outstanding mimics,of day routing and seasonable lifestyle, but also to his partners especially Mimis Kannis when doing Stelios together with Mitsikostas doing Takis Tsoukalas from olympiacos football team and Stavros Kalligas when doing different kitsch music performers.
The show lasted on Alter TV station through the summer of 2006 before changing name to Kodikas Da Mitsi ( a variation to Code Da Vinci). It is highly recommended to anyone and unfortunately the show is not available on DVD (only some episodes). If you ever come across a DVD with Mitsixosta TV show, don't even think it, turn on the TV and enjoy an hour of high class comedy.
