Max von Sindow? SINDOW? Guy plays chess with Death in The Seventh Seal, Jesus Christ in The Greatest Story Ever Told, and to top it all off, Blofeld in a Bond film. But you call him SINDOW. I'm surprised you didn't call his character Mung the Marciless.

But then you hate the coolest movie ever made, so no surprise there. :-P

Endor?? Don't you mean Dagobah?

B-movies are supposed to be poorly cast and acted. If they had large budgets then they would be expected to be good but they are just a bit of fun, their shitness makes them funny and that's what B-movies are about.

I like the Zarkov nazi memories. It's a neat way of showing that Zarkov was a holocaust survivor.

@jimmothon Thats what I like about JOE's review, he spoiles the movie alittle, but now I dont have to see it and he can go into depth.

Funny. 

[jimmothon]

a funny review, but all you really did was tell the storyline in 20 mins.

and i know most of your points were valid, but i still love that movie. sure, it has flaws but it is so epic!
