always been a big fan of the original movie, but this was good too. good enough
that i’m hoping for part two next week rather than the end of next month.

just saw it and loved it. good cast, great story by crichton, both tony & ridley
scott involved and a kick ass cliffhanger! can't wait for the next part.

i'm going to wait and reserve judgment on this until i can see episodes 1 + 2
together.
i never read the book but the original film was iconic and kind of kitsch, i
remember watching it when i was a kid. a remake has a lot to live up to!

mistake and the misuse of their/there/they're grate on my last nerve.)

idk if i want to dl this and get drawn into another mini
series just to be disappointed in the end, like with "john adams" -- not
that "john adams" wasn't a good mini series... it's just that the final
freakin' episode wasn't released! :@

sorry its taken me all day folks. i had jury duty today on the south side of
chicago at the criminal courthouse at 26th and california. the episode wasn't
done converting to avi when i left and jury duty went until 6:20 pm!! ugh!

anyways, the torrent is now posted at both bt chat and mininova. here are the
links:

enjoy all. sorry the video isn't as good as the other 6 parts which were
scene releases. i'm a bit new to the whole encoding thing.

like the ripper says, it's not scene quality--but it's better than nothing.

guess you'll have to come up with some other reason not to watch the
andromeda strain now.

andromeda strain was pretty good, enjoyable to watch and decently acted,
some pretty gnarly action scenes.

personally i think they could have stretched it out a bit more, like a six ep 1
hour series. instead of 2 part 90 minutes

so much happens in this first part that alot of the 'get to know the
charachters' stuff that would have been a big part of the novel, was quickly
hashed over or cut
so that long scenes of dialogue to explain the complexity of the virus could
sustain your interest between action scenes.

very fast paced, seemed a bit like condensed soup 🙂 quick and tasty but not
quite wholesome or satisfying.

as an updated version of the movie i thinks its really good, good actors ,
special effects etc, cant wait for part 2, dissagree with stretching it out to
six eps, its never the same,good effort , thumbs up in my book.

oh dear.

this was bad.

on the level of "sci-fi channels attempt at doing earthsea" bad.

if you liked the original book or movie at all, then walk away now.

you have been warned.

^^^^^ could not agree more, they have completely ruined a classic.

the director screwed this good movie up, i have read the book and seen the 1971
film and the new one sucks because it seems political.

i dont agree...they had to update it, and the movie was political too execpt
more subtle.

i thought it was an ok remake/update considering what other horrors hollywood
has remade. but it's no robert wise film, to be sure.

just watched part1 and thought it was very entertaining with good
production values. plus its hard to pass up any decent sci-fi stuff.

definitely looking forward to part2 tonight (crosses fingers)
