claywoman,<br /><br />Been busy with finals in school and all, but I at last did get the chance to see Sahara today. As a movie goes, that was a good one, adventure, ability to play off of each other, location, and all. It was about the same as the book, but different. The movie Dirk and Al did well playing off of each other, and I would go and see another one by them. The admiral, Sandecker, was somewhat different from my ideas of him in the book, but he played a great Adm. nonetheless. I did not think Rudy was as much of a geek as the show protrays him, but he worked well on the show.<br /><br />Separating the two reminds me of my first viewing of the Next Gen., and the org. ST series. Once I decided to set aside my ideas of the first one, the second one was able to grow on me. Like I said, it was a good adventure movie to see, and the book was good in its own right as well. Now, back to those books, hraccts.
