Battlestar Galactica (2004)
This is a fantasy series, not a sci-fi.
First three seasons of this show is absolute classic. After watching three seasons I was thinking whether this is the best sci-fi show ever. Then season 4 comes out and everything goes boom. It is not a sci-fi show anymore. It is just some crap about politics and religion.
I mean suddenly all the laws of the physics forgetten and everyone become religious or start chasing their feelings. When a character says 'I have a feeling about this', the others say 'Okay, We are gonna follow you'.
The most annoying part is Gaius Baltar and his women followers who have no respect for themselves. They suddenly became obsessed with Gaius for no reason at all and listen to his every word with stupid gesture on their faces. Another thing is Kara. We figure out she was an angel after all for christ sake.
Season 4 is about religions and supertitous believes of people.
Star Trek (1966)
Milestone for sci-fi although it has flaws.
Fascinating! This is one of the most enjoyable shows ever, there is no doubt about that. I have always been a huge fan of sci-fi. I just finished up watching this show and I will share my opinions on it.
I want to start by mentioning what I liked about Star Trek. It really makes you think about the universe. There are many episodes which feel so real and it is not just about acting. It is the magical combination of the cast and the writing. What I liked about the writing, it is not completely based on imagination. Writers had their knowledge of science. They successfully mixed scientefic facts and theories with their imagination. More than half of the episodes never felt unreal! I just couldn't stop thinking this might be real. I know humanity still knows very little about the universe. Our universe is so vast therefore it is impossible to know every possibilities. In the light of what we know today ,not just back in 1960s, Star Trek might have filmed some of the future realities.
This is definitely the milestone for sci-fi because you can see its effects on the shows and movies we watch nowadays. I can't finish this review by not mentioning Mr. Spock who is one of the most original characaters ever. He really makes it more enjoyable to watch.
One other thing I liked about the series is that it gives positive messages about racial differences, national barriers, war, prejudice etc. Star Trek makes you realize these things bring only unnecessary hate. Humankind and world would be so much better if we let go of these things.
I believe the series has two flaws. One of them is there are about fifteen episodes which are not worth watching. What I didn't like about these episodes is that they were based on not sci-fi but fantasy. I mean total fantasy of the writers. The second flaw is the show being sexist. There are episodes and scenes which indicate women cannot be more valuable than their body. They dress in a provocative way when there is absolutely no need for it and I am not just talking about the way they dress in the starship, I also mean women aliens or the women from other races and other planets. I just cannot believe the show which has given a lot of possitive messages about racial differences, national barriers, peace and humanity; failed to see the importance of gender equality.
Game of Thrones: The Long Night (2019)
Never felt like the living was gonna lose!!
Bad writing! Classic ending for a heroic story! I was always expecting that the living was gonna win the battle in a stupid way and it really happened in the end. The night king died so easily and we saw that other white walkers were nothing but puppets of the night king.
Ben de Özledim (2013)
I am suprised that Ben de Özledim was canceled because of rating issues!
First of all, this show is not as good as Leyla ile Mecnun but this doesn't mean that this was a boring show. When it is compared to other tv shows in Turkey, Ben de Özledim is much better than most of them. I am really suprised turkish people hasn't watched this show but some others with unoriginal and bad scripts.
You can say that this show used to start very late, but in my opinion this is not an excuse. I used to stay awake just to watch this show because in that times, this was one of the few original tv shows in Turkey. Only thing I can say that this is so sad. Nowadays, it is impossible to find a good and original Turkish tv show to watch.
Ben de Özledim is absurd comedy but this time they do it with a different way than Leyla ile Mecnun. After Leyla ile Mecnun canceled, the crew tries to hold on to life but they discovers that there are some people who doesn't want them to be succesfull. When they try to deal with these people, they discovers that the world is a different place than they know. Things get stranger and it seems like they are in desperate need of help.
If you have hesitation to watch this show, I gurantee you won't waste your time. Enjoy the show!
Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017)
The Last Jedi is an original movie unlike The Force Awakens!
I want to start with saying The Force Awakens was not just the worst Star Wars movie I have ever seen. It is the worst movie I have ever seen in my whole life. So some of you may have bad expectations from this movie because of the first movie of this trilogy. Don't be afraid, it is not going to be a waste of your money or your time. It is definitely worth to see!
During the movie, some of the characters has their own conflicts. We see that it is not that easy to be the bad or the good. Making a choice between two sides is never really easy. I think this is one of the things that makes us human. I loved to see this conflict inside the characters during the movie.
The story is above the avarage. I don't think this is the best Star Wars story or movie but The Last Jedi has a different style. You will be shocked in some scenes. This movie made me feel very excited for the final episode of this trilogy.
The Last Jedi is way better than The Force Awakens and you really need to see this movie. You won't be disappointed. Star Wars is back!
Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
Another classic superhero movie
If you want to see something original, you will be disappointed. This is just another superhero movie that just make you smile in few scenes.
I used to be a big fan of superhero movies until I realize Marvel and DC are filming the same stories over and over again. After one point, it gets boring. There is always one super villain in the movie. At one point of the film, this super villain beats our lovely superhero. But somehow, superhero always finds a way to beat the villain at the end.
In this paragraph I will sump up all the Thor movies. Thor always gets beat up in the beginning, then finds a way to beat the villain of the movie. At one point, Thor needs help from Loki. Loki can't do anything but help because the situation is so hopeless. But near the end, Loki always betrays Thor.
If you want to see the same story, it is fine. You can enjoy it. Just, don't expect something new.
Game of Thrones: Beyond the Wall (2017)
White walkers are really dangerous!!
I had no idea why white walkers were dangerous until this episode. From the beginning of the show, it was always said that white walkers are the real threat for the seven kingdom but we haven't seen something that could be really threatening. They just transform people to some kind of zombies and control them. Come on!! What can some zombies do against a dragon? How can white walkers fight with three dragons? Well, I found the answers in this episode. I saw how dangerous white walkers can be. I don't wanna give a lot of spoilers so I am going to say just one more thing: This episode made me think that do dragons really have a chance against the white walkers?
Rick and Morty (2013)
Season 4 is total garbage!
I used to think this was the best show ever by far and it actually was until season 4 came out. Writers has lost their ways. There is nothing special about S4. Such a waste of time.
I am giving the show 7 out of 10 for the sake of first three seasons.
The Dark Tower (2017)
The Dark Tower is as good as it can be
I am a big fan of the books and I've waited 5 years for this movie. The first thing I want to say is the movie is really nice. If you are a fan of The Dark Tower novels, go and watch it.
The best part of the novels for me was the strong characters of The Dark Tower. So, the movie needed great actors in the first place. Matthew Mcconaughey was breathtaking as The Man in Black. Idris, was also really good.
In the movie, they explained everything about the Tower unlike the first book. When I have finished the first book of the series, I almost had no idea about what the Tower was. They gave enough information about the tower for the people who haven't read the books.
(***Spoilers in the next paragraph***)
There is one thing I didn't like about the movie. Roland is the last gunslinger and he swore to protect the Tower. At least, that what happens in the novels. In the movie, he has already given up about the tower. He was chasing the Man in Black just for revenge. (The Man in Black killed his father.) The will of protecting the tower was the thing made him Roland Deschain, the last gunslinger. You can't easily take that away. The Dark Tower was his obsession and because of that he abandoned Jake to his death (not in the movie). Without that will, the movie was just about the conflict between the Gunslinger and the Man in Black.
Except the absence of Roland's will, I almost liked everything about the movie. What I am trying to say is The Dark Tower is nice anyway. Go and see it!!
