Hey does anyone remember a show that was around in 2009ish? I think it was one the fox station but im not positive. The show is about a crew that is on a space crafte that is exploring space for a new place to live because earth will soon be uninhabitable. The crew is also being filmed on the ship as a tv show shown back on earth. There is also a thing where they put on like sunglass type things where its virtual reality and they choose what they see and you can chat with other people if they also have theirs on aswell. The captain and the docter(?) lady have an affair together through the virtual reality things. The docter ladies husband or fiance or whatever is in charge of the tv show. the second in command is a bald guy in a wheelchair. There is something wrong with the ship on the outside so the captain has to go fix it but when he gets back he airlock room closes on him and he gets sucked out into space after mouthing i love you to the docter lady. Later her husband/fiance is shown going over the footage of the ship seeing that he mouthed i love you to her. When she goes back to her room there is a virtual reality thing there and when she asks the ship computer who put it there it says it doesnt know. when she puts it on shes in midwestern times and then the captain shows up on a horse asking for a nurse to take good care of his men. before he leaves she tries to talk to him and he says dont worry this is just the begginning or something to that effect then rides of with bad ass music. i think it might have been the pilot. can any one help?

I think I saw it on the Sci Fi channel, I only saw part of it. It was a horror film, towards the end, where two characters (a girl and a forest ranger or sheriff of some sort) have locked themselves in a park bathroom, where the big bad is outside, pouring gasoline through a window. The sheriff is injured, and screams at the woman to take his gun and shoot him. It's hilariously narmtastic, and I wish I knew its name so I could find the scene again! Help!!!

This has bothered me for so long I'm wondering if it actually exists.
A crappy horror movie about a clown killing teenagers at a campground. It's got a standard plot: The kids go on a camping trip, their van breaks down and they stuck at a creepy campground. I think they find some weird wind-up false teeth or something, wind them up, and that's what awakens the clown. I'm pretty sure one of them is killed by the teeth.

Short film, actually. I'm looking for the name of a short film where there's a guy in an apartment, and you never see him from the neck up. He's talking to someone, who is offscreen. His landlady keeps knocking at the door, asking if he has someone in there with him, to which he always replies in the negative. Eventually it does show him above the neck - where there is nothing, because his head is pretty much a separate entity from his body, and he is arguing with 'himself' the whole time.

Spoof teen comedy horror along the lines of "Not Another Teen Movie" and the like.
Only saw the first minute or so of the film, a guy's wearing a normal looking mask and accidentally sets himself on fire. He puts it out by putting his head into a bird table/fountain and the mask has melted to look like a scream mask. Then the titles come on screen.
The title's fairly long. Perhaps released 2004/05?

Over at reddit, this one poster was looking for a comic that sounded really interesting. Here is his description:
"Anybody seen this [one] off web comic about a hero who defeats an "evil villain". the people are grateful but in the absence of a villain they start to become [bad]. so the hero decides to become a villain, so the people will band together in bad times, until another hero rises to defeat him."
Any ideas? Here is the link with more information:

someone know of an anime where a titan with crystal bones holds above him something like a country or even the whole world (sorry don't remember much of it, i was pretty young when i watched it) and needs somebody to play a musical instrument (maybe a harp) for his bones not to break?

A book about a child, possibly of the nickname Tiger, who is leaving a war zone, and brings a fish from home. We are never told the child's name, or even gender I think, but through miles of hiking up and down mountains and getting caught in mud and avoiding land-mines with Father, Mother, and the guide, the fish (which may or may not have consistent size) comes to a refugee camp, with Father, Mother, and (?) Tiger, first in a pot, then a bottle, then the child's mouth.

I saw the film a number of years ago and I think I caught it halfway through. A group of terrorists had managed to get into a nuclear missile silo. The main protagonist was an Asian guy — I think he was supposed to have just been the pizza delivery guy who got stuck in there — with extreme martial arts skills. On the outside the military commander was a female who at one point had a joke played on her with one of her subordinates sending her a blow-up doll.
There was a Big Guy who kept getting nailed with groin shots by the protagonist leading up to a scene where it's attempted again and there's a metallic clang whereupon he lifts the sheet of metal he'd stuck down the front of this pants. Whereupon I believe the protagonist just kicked him again. Oh, and there's a later scene where the protagonist is being stalked in a dark room by a female with night vision goggles. We see him apparently huddled in a corner trying to hide before he pulls out a flashlight and blinds her. Oh, and I do remember they had a computer guy who was doing the Password Slot Machine thingie where the numbers line up one by one.
^_^ Anyone remember this one?

Show that used to be shown in India in the mid-90s. Featured as prominent characters several balls in space. They had different personalities and were launched off the spaceship from time to time. One of the balls used to yell "Geronimo" upon launch.
I've been trying to find this for many years now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Anand

I remember that this show was on Kids WB, and appeared on Saturday Mornings. It featured four teens, who I think had superpowers. One MAY have had the ability to transform into creatures....
And it was also animated in stop-motion/claymation.

Young adult novel - there's a kid who befriends a girl, and then meets a wealthy relative of hers - he's really impressed with the man and his lifestyle and starts to feel a bit ashamed of his own in comparison (in particular I remember the man listened to a lot of opera, and the boy reminisced about how the only times he ever heard any opera were when his family used to turn the radio to an opera station and would all start mocking it by doing dramatic poses and faux lip-syncing). It then turns out the man was either a hiding Nazi war criminal, or just a former Nazi. I also remember the man had a pet papillon
, and it might have been in another book, but I remember the girl saying something about having another relative who she compared to Archie Bunker, and adding that sort of thing isn't as funny in real life.

A fantasy novel of some kind, and literally all I'm sure of is that the main character was a girl, and she started on her journey because she kept hearing a deep voice in her mind saying "Follow me to Alderloon". I'm not sure if I'm spelling that right - neither that nor any of the alternate spellings I've tried ("aldarloon", aldairloon", etc) have yielded anything relevant. I know that's not a lot to go on, but for whatever reason the "follow me to Alderloon" bit has just stuck in my mind for the longest time and I have to figure out what it's from.

A film that prominently used the Roger Rabbit Effect - it was aimed at kids and I remember it sort of having the look of Disney's early uses of that trope, as in Mary Poppins or Pete's Dragon and the like, though I'm not sure if it actually was Disney or not. I mainly remember the main characters (a live action man and one or more kids) being rescued by ostrich-like birds that call themselves "Wokka Birds" (which were animated), and then the birds go into a song and dance number once asked what a "wokka bird" is.

It's a manga, and there's this teen boy who's been reincarnated, along with his friends and wife from his past life. He's the only one who remembers their past life, and the only one who knows who they all were. The twist is that is past wife is know his best (male, I'm pretty sure) friend, and his past best friend is now a cute girl!

A live action TV show. The main characters were a group of teenagers. People were being brainwashed by the bad guys, which caused their eyes to turn red. Also, the main characters had an old rusty Volkswagen Transporter nicknamed Rusty.

There's this scene, and it's been bugging me what it's from. In the scene, there is a guy looking in the mirror, wearing a mask. He takes off the mask but you don't see what's underneath and then he yells and smashes the mirror with the mask and... something. Basically some sort of breakdown. I think it's either a cartoon or a movie. The masked person wears a mask all the time and I'm pretty sure you never get to see his face. He might be the bad guy.

The Switcher, a you tube user that uploads crappy video game based cartoons had a video before he was temp banned about the worst fighting games ever. Has it been reuploeded?
