I thought the sequel was S T U P I D. The great thing about the first movie is you did not know what was going to happen next. I mean it was a real trip. The problem with the second film is that there is no story. So instead they fill up the movie with stupid side characters. There is a new pilot who makes remarks through the entire movie like " How does he do that "...or " Wow he's doing that Superman thing again". To make matters worse they show the city where all the "free" humans live and it looks cheesy and fake ( Another bad scene when the new pilot says "its so good to be home " and he looks over a railing and you see the city for the first time, complete with a choir soundtrack that goes WHAAAAAAAA... I guess it would of been impressive if it looked at all real.

There is a villan in the movie ( towards the end ) who literally says " I chose a french accent because it is better to swear with" Then he starts swearing...C H E E S Y!.



The plot does not come in until the last 10 min. By that time you are way to bored to even care.



Two of the fight scene's are pretty cool, but it feels like you are watching a video game. There is no plot to keep you interested in what happens.

Doris looks and sounds fabulous on this campy variety special. It begins with Doris on a swing wearing a wholesome white dress singing Cole Porter's "Anything goes". Within the number her outfit changes into a revealing blue pant suit and she is dancing with the "world famous" Lochers. Her guests include Tim Conway, Rich Little, John Denver and the dance troupe the Lochers. It is wonderful to hear Doris' take on current songs of the time; Day by Day (from Godspell), Midnight at the Oasis, and The Way We Were. Within the hour show she performs a comedy bit with Tim Conway, sings her movie themes.. with Rich Little providing the voices of her co-stars, and duets with John Denver.

Doris Day came out of retirement and started the "Best Friends" show. The main focus was her love for animal welfare. Her first friend on the show was Rock Hudson. She also had visits from Kaye Ballard, Denver Pyle, Robbie Benson, Howard Keel and many others. Although the show was shot on a low budget, the heart of it was in the right place. It was also exciting to hear Doris sing again. She recorded a handful of songs especially for the show, including the theme. The most touching moment is how she shared her love for her favorite friend "Biggest". He was a dog who was also featured in an episode of the Doris Day show. She had attempted to put him in a loving home but he always ended back in her arms. He had a wonderful long life living with a wonderful lovely lady.
