To answer your question would spoil the movie for you...

If you do insist on an answer head over to spoiler

TWO syfy movies for you.


synchronicity is a low budget time travel story. however, the drama and the suspense is pretty good, keeps you going. and like all time travel mindbenders, you will say, at several points of the film, "wait a minute, that can't be, what's happening here?".

not as slick as predestination but worth a watch. 3/5.




midnight special is a suspenseful, well written script drama. not to spoil it for you but the show keeps you wondering where the story is going next. one way to describe this movie - "close encounters of a new kind". 3.5/5.

Nice.. Love mindbenders..

Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979)

Okay, Star Trek is a big deal for Paramount.

So much so, that after Star Trek The Original Series was released on Bluray, fan were foaming at the mouth for Star Trek the Next Generation.

And there was an issue. Most of the special effect in the said series was C.G.I. which is not an issue. The issues arised when it was discovered that the effects were originally rendered in 480P, which translate to an ugly bluray release for The Next Generation, unless additional work was done.

Paramount did the math, and went ahead to spend the money to redo ALL the special effects in HD and reintegrating that to the original practical shot, and when the blurays were release, the rabid fanboys were happy and sales of the blurays were good.

So, what the heck am I going on about.

This movie was made with a budget of USD 35,000,000.

It made Paramount, USD 85,000,000 (in box office)...

And the head honchos in Paramount did not think it was worthy a proper HD transfer??

Oh my goodness, one of the worst HD transfer I have experience!!

Dust specks, soft images.... Shame on you, Paramount!!

Story wise, not a Star Trek story per say (the director Robert Wise, did not "get" it)

If feel more like the 2001: Space Odyssey rather than a Star Trek movie.

Worth a watch if you have not watch this.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)

Easily on of the fanboys' favorite Star Trek movie.

Director Nicholas Meyer, gets it.

Is a continuation of Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Space Seed" (1967).

Ricardo Montalban reprise his Khan role.

Transfer is slightly better compared to the first.

I believe the ending shock many a fan when the movie was first shown at the cinema.

And if you had watched Star Trek Into Darkness you already know that.

Good movie.

My Two Sen

Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984)

With a title like that, are there any doubts what happened?

Another fanboy favorite.

I believe fanboy likes this because more of the Vulcan "culture" is shown.

And also the irony


Well, if you have nothing to do, and like me hae some time, try doing a marathon!!!

My Two Sen

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986)

I thought this was a "filler" movie (thinking that it is the most inexpensive to produce.

This movie cost Paramount USD 25,000,000, the total combine budget of the last two movie!!!

I thought that since most of it was "present" it would have been cheaper to make... The answer is no.

I actually like this the best.

The 23rd century vs 20th century. Makes for some entertaining viewing.

This movie made Paramount USD 133,000,000!

So I am not alone.

If you want to watch a good original series movie, this is the one I recommend!!

My Two Sen

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989)
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991)

As for the these two.

I feel they are better material for a TV episode rather than a movie

My Two Sen

I envy you have a time to watch a lot of movies but I can't. In a month, maybe I just can watch 3 movies.

You envy me?....

It is a choice.

One can choose to eat or to watch movie...

I choose to watch movie...

there always a time , if you can manage it very well ... thank god my wife kaki gaming and kaki movie like me , so there is no reasons for us to enjoy it

there are 12 star trek movies.

i have all of them, rewatched a few of them 2 years ago, will watch the rest in a couple yrs time.

seriously, i really can't remember the stories of all of them except for the first one... "V'Ger" and the 2 most recent. the rest... there was one about dolphins, one about spocks lost and found, one about khan, one about the crew of enterprise fighting against their doppelgangers...?

i definitely remember the stories of the 6-episode hobbit-lord of the rings or 7-episode star wars better.



well, star trek 13 coming july this year.

Why not both? At the same time!

I can only afford one or the other...

>"V'Ger"

Star Trek The Motion Picture

>there was one about dolphins

Star Trek IV The Voyage Home and it is about Humpback whales...

>one about spocks lost and found

The end of Star Trek II Wrath of Khan was Spock lost

The whole Star Trek III Search for Spook was Spock found.

>one about khan

Again Star Trek II Wrath of Khan

>one about the crew of enterprise fighting against their doppelgangers...?

You lost me with this one... Not in Star Trek I - VI... Or any Star Trek I can remember...

think it's 9 or 10, insurrection or nemesis, patrick stewart.

Insurrection is about internal youth and kids that left the placet tricked the federation into stealling the planet for them

Nemesis is about the Romulan with a picard clone... Is this the one you mean?

Krampus (2015)

Now, for something old skool.

If you like movies like Gremlins and Gremlins II, you may like this.

All the "effect" are practical rather then CGI, and I for one appreciate that.

Krampus is an old believe that is you lose the spirit of Christmas, Santa Clause does not pay you a visit.

Instead, Krampus would visit.

Where Santa reward, Krampus punishes.

Where Santa gives, Krampus takes.

I like this.

It's old skool. (Like me)

My Two Sen
