B-Movie Inspirations is a series of articles I write where I watch really bad movies and draw RPG inspiration from them. Welcome once again to B-Movie Inspirations where I go over a very bad movie and pull interesting RPG ideas out of them. This month we are looking at Star Quest 2 from 1996 (…
B-Movie Inspirations is a series of articles I write where I watch really bad movies and draw RPG inspiration from them. Welcome back to another edition of B-Movie Inspirations. This time we are covering another sci-fi classic found on Tubi called Star Quest (also known as Terminal Voyage, 1995). I am pretty sure I have…
Moonbase is a low budget sci-fi movie from 1997 that attempts to tell a good story despite it’s very low budget. It is obviously a direct to video movie that probably sat on more than one Blockbuster video shelf and was watched by many who were probably disappointed by the cerebral story. It is one of those dark future sci-fi movies born of the 1990s angst against corporate greed, environmentalism and greed.
I have been re-watching SG-1 with my kids. They are loving it. However, I got to this one and it hit me in the wrong way, perhaps because of the times and what is going on today. It does show how timeless some of these themes are but at the same time, this episode show…
B-Movie Inspiration is a series of articles I write where I watch really bad movies and draw RPG inspiration from them. Perusing my various streaming options, I stumbled on this gem of a B-movie from 1990 – The Dark Side of the Moon. No, this was not something inspired by the Pink Floyd album. This…
**SPOLIERS** I have been back and forth with Star Trek: Discovery for a while now. When Pike was in, it was good but otherwise, It has been a struggle for me. Between the SJW crap they want to push and the weak storylines with no basis in Star Trek axioms or science as well as…
Rewatching TNG I did not realize they revisited the Crystalline entity one more time. From S1 E13 Datalore to S5 E4 Silicon Avatar, this thing appeared to devour planets of all life (rather quickly, I might add). This thing had me question a lot of things about it. It reminded me of the planet killer…
We are 4 seasons in and at least twice now, there has been an episode where Picard or Tiker gets taken somehow by an alien being with amazing technology – of which we never see anything about again. While I get that Star Trek has always relied on the galaxy is big-montra, I feel that…
Happy Meal/Skylander Giants Toys My friend Dave O’Gara from Youtube’s miniature mash-up did a good video on some Happy Meal toy crafts. This inspired me because I have had a box of Happy Meal toys my son gave me a long time ago. They were from the Skylander Giants promotional run with McDonalds and some…
Being cooped up in the house because of a global pandemic has opened opportunity for movies and crafting as well as writing. Along with binging Star Trek: The Next Generation, I have been picking random movies to watch – recent and old ones. So I thought might as well blog while I am doing them….
