DYNAMO UNIVERSE – All Episodes

Return of the Punk in Cyberpunk!

Cyberpunk has become science fiction subgenre with domination of corporate technocracy and rebellion against it. Dynamo Dream focuses more on true punk values, mostly characterised by anti-establishment sentiments, the promotion of individual freedom, DIY ethics, and is centred on aggressive genre of rock music called punk rock.

In this different dystopian science fiction universe, we follow Josephine, not a private noiresque detective, or a black market hacker, but a salad maker who is trying to make a living in the last city on Earth. By a mere chance, she is given opportunity to reunite with a loved one, but the world goes berserk.

Creator: Ian Hubert
Starring Christina Terrazas, Justina Goldbeck, Andy Dopieralski and Alan Melikdjanian.

Gogs – The Complete Collection (1995)

Grungy, in-your-face claymation comedy about a family of cavemen in prehistorical times!

Gogs is a Welsh claymation-style animated television series in the form of a sitcom! Enjoy prehistorik ancestor as they struggle to survive in a dangerous world. In the Welsh language, the term ‘Gogs’ is slang for ‘Gogledd’ which translates as ‘North’ and ‘gogs’ as ‘Northerners’. People tend to recall Walace and Grommit once asked about there favourite claymation cartoon. Although the latter has of course a unique quality of it’s own it would be just unfair to simply skip “Gogs”. The story’s are brilliantly simple. It’s the use of time and sound that make it so catchy. I will never forget the scene in witch the entire prehistoric and pre-brain family tries to drag a giant (sleeping) bear out of there house (cave). The stupid faces of the characters, the sound of the bears nails on the stone ground and the look of total bewilderment on a passing bird are hilarious.

Bodily fluids, slapstick violence, toilet humour and dinosaurs. Gogs iss simply brilliant.

>10 minute episodes each containing two short stories, shown at odd times as fillers on BBC television in the early 90s. I never get tired of watching Gogs, and it still makes me laugh – the clay figures lend themselves wonderfully to cartoon violence and exaggerated expressions.

The timing is excellent, expressions brilliant, scenarios stupidly funny!

Production: Aaargh! Animation, Harlech Television and Bumper Films

The Day After (1983)

The effects of a devastating nuclear holocaust on small-town residents of eastern Kansas!

No matter how poorly the effects or the acting, or how graphic and extravagant the visuals were all these films serve one purpose. To educate us on the value we have as creatures that not only have control over our individual destinies but the destiny of our world and the lesser species. To show us what the cost would be, no matter how graphic and obscene. The Day After, Threads, Testament, The War Game, Failsafe, Wargames, and all the other media programming that has shown us the horror of nuclear war. Each has its strengths and flaws, its highs and lows, but the message inherrently remains the same.

Caesar (2002) – Miniseries

Julius Caesar life with excellent performances!

Julius Caesar is an epic story set in magnificent, ancient Rome. It will bring to life one of history’s greatest figures. The miniseries will not only show Caesar as one of the greatest politicians, generals and orators to have ever lived. It will particularly tell of a man, of his early days, of his formation and assent to power, of his ambitions, anxieties, weaknesses and of the three great loves of his life.

Stylish,visually stunning epic-scale Roman biography!

It’s very hard to compress the career of Julius Caesar into 3 hours of television, but this production accomplished the task admirably. Jeremy Sisto did a fine job conveying both the strengths and weaknesses in Caesar’s character, and the supporting cast (especially Chris Noth) did an excellent job acting as complements and foils to Caesar.

Starring: Jeremy Sisto, Richard Harris, Christopher Walken
