Tales of Long Ago: Why Engineers Are Dangerous

I was originally going to go into a movie review and, in the spirit of Flash Gordon, talk about another whackjob movie from the early 80's: Krull. Slapping together some "epic fantasy" elements, some "science fiction" elements, a bunch of British character actors (including relatively unknown-at-the-time Liam Neeson and Robbie Coltrane), and a whole mess of cheese, Krull was (and still is) a great guilty-pleasure check-your-brain-at-the-door action flick. Monsters! Lasers! Cyclops! Giant spiders! Aliens! Holy crap!

( But then I remembered... Storytime! )
