The Outer Limits (1995)
Which version are you watching
I watched the original version back in the 90's and it was great. I would give that version a 10. However, since Showtime sold it, it has become less than half of what it was and is no longer watchable. The original version which aired on Showtime was R-rated and had "colorful" language. Most of that has been edited out. The original had nudity, but not this version. The current version available on disc or on MGM+ are PG rated at best, and is mostly not watchable.
After finally finishing what MGM+ calls the "complete" series, there 3 episodes missing from what they are streaming.
Season 2 Episode 5 - Mind Over Matter
Season 2 Episode 19 - Falling Star
Season 2 Episode 21 - Vanishing Act
It would be wonderful if someone could bring back the original version as that was what the people who loved it enjoyed about the show.
Black Scorpion (2001)
Holy Cannolies Batman...
Missed this when it was on real TV and saw it on Prime. I'm surprised nobody has commented about the horrendous writing. 5 minutes in, the bad guys are breaking into a gun store. The guns in the store are not locked up AND they are loaded. Just pick one up off the shelf and start shooting, even full auto.
Then there is the villain who has a gun for his hand. He shoots and hits a galvanized garbage can and it barely dents the can. He shoots police wearing vests and the bullets go through the vests and the bodies.
In the 60's, Batman was better than this. Even today, the 60's version of Batman is better than this.
