One positive thing about the Planet of the Apes remake is the ape make-up, it's truly amazing. As for the rest of the movie, I didn't really liked it. "Planet of the Apes(with only two nominations: Best Costume Design and Jerry Goldsmith's Best Score), without a nomination for Michael Wilson and Rod Serling's screenplay; it was given a Special Honorary Oscar for John Chambers' ground-breaking, outstanding makeup (there was no Best Makeup category until 1981)" Guess they thought that Kubrick used Real Apes for 2001 of the same year .. ....  | | | In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird.

| | Posted: | | | |  The Time Tunnel: Volume One FROM THE CREATIVE GENIUS OF IRWIN ALLEN ("Lost in Space," "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea," The Poseidon Adventure and The Towering Inferno) COMES ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR AND ORIGINAL SCI-FI SHOWS OF THE 1960s! "THE CONTROL OF TIME IS POTENTIALLY THE MOST VALUABLE TREASURE THAT MAN WILL EVER FIND." Or so believed the scientists of Project Tic Toc. Located beneath the Arizona desert, the ten-year project's focus is the feasibility of time travel. But when the government reconsiders the project, the scientists have only 24 hours to prove their untested "Time Tunnel" will actually work. Determined to save the project, Dr. Tony Newman and Dr. Doug Philips go through the tunnel—and quickly find themselves catapulted from one historical event to another, barely escaping with their lives as their colleagues back in Arizona race to figure out a way to bring them back home. Episode Watched:NIGHT OF THE LONG KNIVESTony meets Rudyard Kipling after he and Doug materialize just before a battle between British troops and Afghanistan tribes in which the future of India could be determined. My Thoughts:This one I enjoyed... but not quite as much as the previous two. It is funny that after watching A Kid in Aladdin's Palace... that this one has to deal with Tony and Doug in the deserts of India. But for what it is... it is good. I don't know... I think my mood is starting to shift a bit. Though I would like to fit in one more movie and one more episode before the day is over... if I am lucky. Though I must admit the next episode, which I believe deals with Nazis, I am definitely not looking forward to. As that is one of my least favorite subjects. But it is the final episode in this set... so I would kinda like to get it out of the way. My Rating: 3.5/5 | | | | Pete |

I'd definitely recommend Timecrimes.
