Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
justinrobertorama If you remember Leonard Nimoy's "In Search Of" and were a fan of that, you'll love this show too. Now it's Shatner's turn to be the host of the unexplained.Much in the vein of the original Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell, (actually this show take many topic from that show) such as shadow people, time travel, parallel dimensions, etc..., Weird or What features William Shatner as your host, and does this just perfectly with equal parts humor and seriousness, this show is just fun.For all the skeptic, no imagination, stiff brained, armchair scientists out there, it always features a skeptic's point of view as well as the believer's.The only bad reviews of this show are from people who don't like shows like this. If they hate it so much, why are they watching it? I found this show on Youtube, since I don't have cable, then noticed it's on Netflix, totally addictive and thought provoking stuff. Highly enjoyable entertainment for those that enjoy these types of shows. There's some classic topics on here like Mothman, but some others I've never heard of before, like some very convincing reincarnation stories and some other really cool topics.Check it out if this is your type of thing, you won't be disappointed.
Greg Glaser to the person who says that plants knowing your thoughts is utter crap you are very, very wrong. read the book the 'secret life of plants' published in the early 1970's I think. I was 15 at the time. my late father, an electronic engineer of some renown and respect among those who knew him,read that book and thought it preposterous. he then set about devising an instrument that would expose the man to be a fraud. what he came up with was a board roughly 6" or 8" square with a large number of amplifiers and other things on it a ground probe for reference and a clothespin with conductive foam on it to attach to the leaves. this system was hooked to an oscilloscope to view the plants electrical activity. what he saw astounded him. he used a spear orchid for his tests. the most interesting incident of all was when my sister-in-law was watching holding her son on her hip. the infant suddenly made a lunging motion toward the plant and an excited baby noise and immediately the nice sign wave on the oscilloscope went flat. there was never again a reading taken from that spear orchid and two weeks later it was dead and gone. we wonder to this day what was on the mind of that child. this got my father going and he designed a device that turned the plants electrical activity into the ringing of wind chimes. what we found was that each plant type we hooked the units to had a characteristic ring for that type or species. within the type of plant each plant had it's own variation of the ring. ring meaning the way the plant made the wind chimes sound. when people came to sell us things while trying to start the business if they were telling us the truth the plants got very quiet. if someone was lying to us the plants made quite a commotion. it was really very interesting.
ddeegan-321-412822 I try to catch Weird or What at every opportunity. Not only to I get to listen to the hypnotic voice of William Shatner, I get to hear some pretty far out stuff that may or may not be true but always makes for fascinating conversation at our dinner table.If you like watching docs about Nostradamus, you'll love Weird or What? UFOers, Trekkers, and kids alike will enjoy it.Lightweight, great interviews from scientists and quasi scientists alike who offer alternative explanations for out of the ordinary occurrences. Don't expect hard science, temporarily suspend your belief and let your imagination rule the hour.
jmbjc-13-240841 We absolutely love this show!! We seen it several times and it was entertaining, factual and just fun to watch. You can't go wrong with being challenged if an event is weird or what. The audience is out there and eventually they will find this show and love it, too. I find that there is evidence presented, action by actors or by William Shatner and it was fun to decide whether it was true or not. Some things out there are just weird and what is wrong with presenting some weird facts. We enjoyed the scenery presented, the commentary by Wm. Shatner and the possibility of presentation of weird or not facts. Television is entertaining, at times, and we found that this show is entertaining.
