View Full Version : Impact, The Storm, Meteor bicker1 07-22-09, 07:36 AM If you had to rank these three summer mini-series, what order would you place them in? Argee 07-22-09, 07:40 AM NBC signed a deal for five of these mini series. The other three wil be broadcast on Syfy. Ken H 07-22-09, 10:02 AM Last, last, and last. Gmichael2 07-22-09, 10:23 AM Shall we rank these vs other Sci-fi type shows or the reality TV crap thats on 98% of the time? Ranking vs other Sci-fi: 98, 99, 100. Ranking vs reality crap: 8, 9, 10 qz3fwd 07-22-09, 10:27 AM Storm, Meteor, Impact (Best to Worst). I kind of like these cheesy mini-series/made for tv "movies". Are you the same bicker over at tivoforums? bicker1 07-22-09, 11:55 AM Yeah, that's me. Thanks... I just need to put them in order, so I know which to use as filler first... derek 07-22-09, 12:45 PM Well 'Storm' debuts next week...but 'Impact' which wasn't that great looked like an Oscar-winner compared to 'Meteor.' This was really bottom feeder dreck (though the asteroid SFX were decent.) The only decent character was the Sheriff whom I liked. I mean the deaths of Lloyd (car hit n run) and totally non-believable character scientist Jason Alexander (beware the giant plasma TV!) were just...so stupidly shocking they were actually funny. The subplots were ridiculous. I mean did they have jr high students write this? And hundreds of nukes going off under a HUGE asteroid DEFLECTS its decent path...I mean like by 45 degrees?!?!?!? Nevermind the fact you're in a (mostly) vacuum and no air pressure blast to push against the asteroid. This isn't even at the level of junk science but stupidity at its best (worst?) mx6bfast 07-22-09, 01:13 PM Not to sound like a doofus, but what are these? chroma601 07-22-09, 01:46 PM These are NBC summer fodder! DaveFi 07-22-09, 10:16 PM 0, 0, and -0. Marty Milton 07-24-09, 02:24 PM Weren't all three of these disaster mini-series on NBC? I have seen a previous thread that talks about Impact on ABC. I know it was only a few weeks ago, but I think it was NBC, right? mx6bfast 07-24-09, 09:09 PM Remember 10.5 on NBC a couple of years ago? fredfa 07-24-09, 10:29 PM No way to rate "Storm" yet -- but if the other two are any indication..... Whitearrow 07-24-09, 10:49 PM Impact was way better than Meteor, relatively speaking. If you're going to do these movies I definitely prefer staying with the scientist characters... I can seriously do without escaped-criminal subplots and idiot teenage girls in peril. Cosmos2 07-25-09, 12:30 AM After reading this review of "The Storm" I am definitely not going to watch it. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/25/arts/television/25stor.html celticpride 07-26-09, 09:40 PM I'm pretty sure impact was on ABC,meteor on NBC and the storm wii be on NBC. |
