  2. Who would have thunk ice?

    Oh, of course, you JKM.

    The Cult TV Faces of Ice.

    Inspired stuff.

    Honestly, I never really considered just how important ice has been in the world of science fiction.

    In fact, you could add episodes of Stargate SG-1 and many more I'm sure.

    WOW. Nicely done my friend.

    Tough one!

    #s 2 & 3 have an original Trek vibe to me but beyond that - Not sure.

    #4 would be Adam West's Batman in his weekly peril, this time icy.

    #8 is a flash-frozen Buck Rogers.

    #9 ... Trek. Next Gen. Maybe a freeze-dried Tasha Yar? Not positive.

  4. Hi everyone,

    Thanks so much for checking out these "cool" ice images. :)

    Meredith: Yes, absolutely. You recognized the imag from Space:1999's "Force of Life." Ever notice how the name Zoref is an anagram for the word "froze?"

    SFF: Than you for the kind words, my friend. For some reason, I can't post your second comment that you submitted -- I don't know what I did!:) But you mentioned in that message Battlestar Galactica and "Gun on Ice Planet Zero." That one certainly would have been good to include (slipped my mind!)

    And woodchuckgod: You correctly id'd all of those. The Star Trek frames are from "the Naked Time" and "The Enemy Within," respectively. You also accurately saw Batman as a giant tastyfreeze, and Buck Rogers, from the first episode. And # 9 is Next Gen and Tasha Yar (from the opening of "Encounter at Farpoint.")

    Great job all!

    best,
    JKM

30 Years Ago: Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994)

The tenth birthday of cinematic boogeyman Freddy Krueger should have been a big deal to start with, that's for sure.  Why? Well, in the ...
