(The Sci-Fi Network would eventually save the day.) On top of that, some fans still seemed unconvinced that Michael J. Nelson was fit to lick the spaceship floor original host Joel Hodgson walked on, resulting in the biggest sci-fi flame war since Kirk vs. Picard. Perhaps not the most ideal time, then, to make that giant leap from the small to the big screen.

If you were smart and careful, you spent much of 2020 indoors thanks to the deadly pandemic. With many movie theaters closed much of 2020, with bars and restaurants often unavailable, with live music an impossibility; we all turned to home entertainment and that often meant our screens. Netflix and other streaming services can only offer so many choices and few people subscribe to every service, so 2020 was a good year to catch up on some DVDs and Blu-rays.
