2. I kinda prefer mindful entertainment.
Such as "Kinda" or "Snakedance", two of the best "Doctor Who" stories ever made and produced. :D

3. I wouldn't call it either...
Entertaining is more the right word. :)
The second is a typical crappy 80s sequel, but the first and third are fun. Haven't seen the most recent yet.

7. I liked the third more than the first...
I'm a sucker for revenge-themed stories and characters working together out of necessity rather than mutual convenience and it was well made...

Still, it doesn't have the lasting value it once had.

4. I wonder how many children have started smoking
because they wanted to be just like Bruce Willis.

6. That's some damn fine flamebait right there.

Nicely done.

But I actually started blowing shit up and driving like a madman so I could be like Bruce Willis, not smoking.

8. Have the kids watch and adore 'Death Becomes Her' instead...
Wait, that would get them to want to be flaccid, balding, fat Republican undertakers if we go by the dialogue Meryl Streep belted out in that scene...

10. I think Irons steals a bit of the show in the third, but not as much as Rickman did in 1. :)
