THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN PART II (RICKY SHRODER, BENJAMIN BRATT, WILL, TOKEN BLACK FEMALE DOCTOR, TOKEN GAY SOLDIER, TOKEN ASIAN SCIENTIST;2008)




DUM DUM DUM. THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN RETURNED FOR PART II ON TUESDAY EVENING TO SHOVE MORE LIBERAL SHIT DOWN OUR THROATS. WAS THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN A MESSAGE FROM OUR FUTURE SELVES? ONCE DECODED, WAS IT A REQUEST FOR NATURAL RESOURCES WE'D BURNT OUT IN THE FUTURE AND COULD ONLY REACQUIRE FROM THE PAST? DID AL GORE TRAVEL INTO THE FUTURE TO WITNESS THE EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING!? THEN PROCEED TO GET STUCK THERE? IS HE TRYING TO COMMUNICATE WITH US? IS IT A KILLER ALIEN VIRUS? OR IS IT THE BUTT-UGLY CHICK IN THIS PHOTO WITH THE KID FROM SILVER SPOONS? WHO BY THE WAY HAD THE BEST LINE IN THE ENTIRE MOVIE:


TOKEN DOCTOR: "YOU GOT A GIRL BACK HOME?"


RICK SHRODER MAN-DECODER: "I WON'T TELL IF YOU DON'T ASK..."


DID THEY REALLY HAVE TO MAKE THIS GUY A GAY? THAT WAS ABOUT THE TIME THE MOVIE JERK THREW A BEER AT THE SCREEN AND STARTED BOOING HIS ZENITH TELEVISION SET. I GUESS OLD RICKY DOESN'T HAVE MUCH CHOICE IN HIS ROLES THOUGH. IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN EASY GOING FROM SILVER SPOONS TO SILVER POONS. THE SECOND HALF WASN'T NEARLY AS COOL AS THE FIRST. HOWEVER, IF YOU CAN IGNORE THE UNDERLYING AGENDA OF THE SCREEN WRITERS THIS MOVIE'S STILL WORTH RENTING WHEN IT ARRIVES ON DVD.
