A documentary about the early years of the Cybermen. Introduced by Colin Baker, this includes several interviews and rare clips. Also included are four surviving episodes from the incomplete stories "The Moonbase" (episodes 2&4) and "The Wheel in Space" (episodes 3&6). A VHS classic!
As this critic continues to look back at some of this Summer's films I have taken in, I would be remiss if I didn't mention one of the most overall unsettling trends in Hollywood over the last several years.....sequels, reboots, and remakes. Look, I am all for seeing more than one film for certain originals that made a splash, ie: "Jurassic Park", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Transformers", etc.
Disney's live-action remake is vibrant and beautiful, with updated music and classic enthusiasm, but it fails to push the envelope and provide nuance for Ursula.
