The moves in this set are remakes or different adaptations of the Dickens story but I enjoy each of them for who plays Scrooge and the way the movie is written.

Included here are all of the DC Universe movies that I have listed in my Binge list.

This includes all of the moves in the Alien Franchise and also Alien vs Predator.

This includes all of the movies in the Predator Franchise and related Predator movies.

This includes all six of the movies where Clint Eastwood was "The Man With No Name".

This was the third of a franchise after Dr. No and From Russia With Love that has gone for 53 years and shows no sign of running out of gas. Like the series Doctor Who, each Bond has to get what the character is about and then put his own stamp on it. It goes without saying that Sean Connery established the standard that the others have had to channel but still become his own James Bond. I will not attempt to rank the Bonds but after Sean Connery, I feel Pierce Bosnan and Roger Moore (RIP), Daniel Craig come in as 2, 3, and 4. By the way, with no disrespect to the master (Sean Connery), Barry Nelson played James Bond in 1954 on the TV series Climax. I saw this episode and it is impossible to cram a James Bond episode int 30 minutes on live TV but Mr. Nelson gave it his best. The late Mr. Nelson acknowledged willingly that Sean Connery was the first real James Bond.

One of the funniest franchises that I like to watch. It is like this part was written for James Belushi. Of course,"Jerry Lee" steals every scene. Mr. Belushi is a rare actor that he is secure enough to act with animals. A lot of actors don't like to act with children and animals simply for the reason that I just explained that when this happen, the actor often becomes invisible when a child or animal is in the scene.

Except for James Bond, this has got to be the most successful movie franchise in modern times. The way it is designed, it provides flexibility for the actors in that ever one of them does not need to be in every program. The Expendables has the same formula. It was tragic that Paul Walker passed and I had not seen much of his work before his passing but I see that he was on his way to the top. Since losing him, I have watched all of these and his other work and He is another actor that we lost too soon. It is clear in this franchise that they like working together or it would not be as successful as it is. Rest in peace, Mr. Walker.

This movie was made in 1932 starring Joel McRae and Faye Wray from a short story written by Russell Connell. I read it in English Literature in the 11th Grade and have never forgotten it. Like the Scrooge movies, this had been remade numerous times with the same basic plot but shown from different angles. I have tried to watch every remake of it that I can find and was only disappointed in a couple of the efforts. The one from 1832 still holds well 85 years later.

Liam Neeson is one of the best action actors in the business. I hope they keep making Taken movies since the TV series does not reflect on the movies. This franchise is Neeson's for as long as he wants it.. Some movies do not lend themselves to make a TV series and I feel this is one of them. Good job Mr. Neeson and the rest of the crew.

This is the latest in a fantastic franchise that Tom Cruise has be making since the 90's and he and it have not gotten stale. I was a fan of the TV series in the 60's and the first episode picked up where the series left off including the character of Jim Phelps played by Jon Voight as a nod to the now late Peter Graves. I read some that Peter Graves wanted to have a small part it it but it did not happen. A salute to Tom Cruise and the rest of the crew for a job well done.

It looks like Tom Cruise has had success with two franchise projects that he started from the beginning. I haven't seen a third Reacher yet but hope he gets to make one. I do appreciate that he works himself to the limit with this and the Mission Impossible Franchise and as a good actor, he must do other parts so he does not get typecast. Hope he can pace himself and keep it up as long as he wants to. Not to throw water on it but it is too bad that his attempt to revive the Mummy franchise did not work out but sometimes you can't win them all. Good job to Mr. Cruise and the rest.
