Thanks for the links. That is cool. Hopefully it will generate more interest in the movies.

I think he is going to review the series as well so maybe more people will find out that a Tremors Series exists and they will go and buy it.
I'll post each review he does for them on here.

Cool reviews, although I do disagree with alot of things he said about the second movie. Sometimes, I think I actually prefer it to the first.
Can't wait to see his next reviews!

412, I'm not sure, but the first may actually be my least favorite of the three modern movies. T4 is a class by itself so I don't usually consider it in the mix, but I think I've gotten to a T3, T2, T1 order in my favorites column now.

Yeah, I'm pretty equal with 1 and 2, they switch off all the time, then 4 is my third favorite, and 3 comes next. But I love them all!

My preferences do change. Based on 'hours viewing' I think T2 hits the top spot but I got to watching T3 and the more I watched the better I liked it. In order of hours watched I think it runs T2, T3, T1, T4. Recently watched it is T3, T2, T1, T4. Of course the series is always in the running. Perhaps I like T3 so much now because it sets up the series so well. One point of agreement with the reviews; Val and Earl work better than Grady and Earl but I think it should be that way. Earl does not know Grady nearly as well as he knows Val so I wouldn't expect the same level of trust and respect. I mean, REALLY, could you respect someone who thinks 'Rock breaks through paper'? Val just punched him and ignored Earl's win in T1 when he went for the Cat. Grady couldn't remember to "stay off the GROUND!". I need to go home and do a Tremors marathon while I repair my air rifles.

I did a Tremors marathon when I first got the attack pack in 2010, I couldn't get my mind off Tremors for a few months. ;D

Thanks for the alert. A pretty dog gone good assessment. He doesn't understand the WHY of the life cycle but I spent some time thinking about it before I decided there was a good SCIENCE reason (not just the sequels) for the 3 phases. Mildly disagree about the ass blaster not being realistic (although nozzle design is tricky, mother nature is one SMART mama!) but that is a matter of taste. Over all I am surprised at the accuracy and quality of the review.

Critterbuster, Thank you for monitoring this, sir. Overall I think a really accurate review. His point about it being a "lark" for the series watchers makes a LOT of sense and helps explain my feelings that it really wasn't part of the Tremors series. It wasn't! I love it when I'm right! Just like there is a place for 'bang, bang, shoot-em up' westerns this film fits in that mold and for that mold, it is a good film. Now I, too, am looking forward to his review of the series. So far this guy has been pretty good; I'm curious about his thoughts on Mix-Master. Again, thank you.

I liked his T4 review, though there were a lot of things I disagreed with. Still, I respect his well informed and justified opinion. He focused on both the positives and negatives of the films. Ultimately, we just weighed our positives and negatives differently. And I absolutely love the Tremors the Series review! And he is another one that appreciates my favorite episode: A Little paranoia Among Friends I agree with almost everything he says, except that I liked Larry And I had no idea that was Michael Rooker (Merle in The Walking Dead) in that episode!
