Practical effects are so much better than CGI.

Well, they can be so much better than CGI. The fact that the marketplace in Hellboy 2 is 95% practical effects still blows my mind.

however the 80s one owns


if you are bored and have nothing else to do you might as well but dont have high expectations

main thing i disliked about the new thing was that there wasnt ever much real suspense like in the original they just had a buncha 'boo' moments and showed way too much of the monster

besides this scene the best part of the episode is where they decide they should put him in jail and give him a trial, wouldve been the greatest episode ever if instead of it escaping they actually brought him to court to be charged

i don't get how that show went from the 'monster of the week' format to stupid roswell grey alien conspiracy bullshit as the focus

with the exception of that ep where jesse l. martin played a negro league slugger who was also an alien on the lam from a bounty hunter, that was all right

i dont think it ever really went from one to the other, there was a long convoluted alien invasion that the government knew about and was abetting over the entire series

the monster of the week thing never really stopped as far as i remember

people call it a classic because its kinda darkish but completely ignore that everything in the 80s was kinda dark in the 80s and early 90s

'battle lines' had a semblance of a cool idea but was awful

at least they got rid of kayopaka in that ep

im trying to go through the whole series ep by ep but all the poo poo in the first season has soured me to the point where im only watching an episode or 2 per week
