Since "The Dream Masters" was one of the most blatant, to say nothing of WORTHLESS, movie rip-offs of the series... the prizes for its deconstruction head back into pure VHS territory!
[ http://www.scifi.com/bboard/browse.cgi/1/5/545/26551 ]
• Slider_Quinn21 wins Christopher Dunne's "Titus Andronicus"!
• SpaceTime wins Todd Sheets' "Catacombs"!
• Callie21V wins Woody Allen's "Annie Hall"!
• ThomasMalthus wins "Shrek," which was sponsored by Baskin-Robbins! (Hey, bet no-one saw THAT coming!)

• DieselMickeyDolenz wins "Eclair au Chocolat" (2001), starring Logan St. Eclair!
• The_Seer wins Danny Bonaduce in amycamus' "The Partridge Family Goes to Tijuana"!

• SL4ever wins "Ginger Snaps"!
• Tigs wins the 1919 silent flick "The Moral Deadline"!
• Jenneration_X wins "Traffic"! Sit through five minutes and YOU'LL be hallucinating too!
As for TM's inquiries:
• Mychand and The_Seer posted under 'The Young and the Relentless' after I'd already posted 'Invasion,' and thus were acknowledged under 'The Dream Masters.'
• TM, you were overlooked because you replied after I'd written the player round-up and I never realized the discrepancy. A thousand times sorry!
• I scanned the archives, and TM is indeed the only person to contribute to all 31 episode games to date! For this astounding feat of dedication, he receives a very special PLATINUM STAR! Let's hear some applause, folks!
=== SHOW AND TELL ===
BLINKER [dragging a huge sheet of plywood into the drive room]: Whew! And now, presenting the wall that Peck punched a hole in, after learning the Gulf War ended years ago and he had no hope of the US government paying him off to "advertise" Operation Desert Storm.
THIRD SEASON EXECUTIVE PRODUCER DAVID PECKINPAH: So I was a little behind watching my CNN tapes; big deal! I had to do a lot of freeze-framing to investigate whether Wolf Blitzer really IS a werewolf.
BLINKER [ignoring Peck]: So what've you got?
SYNTHIA: Well now! This here is the ultimate proof that everyone involved with Season Three had Rice-A-Roni for brains.
BLINKER: An arrow?
SYNTHIA: Yeah! Except it's EMBEDDED IN SOLID ROCK! WHAT THE HELL KIND OF BOW CAN DRIVE ARROWS INTO GRANITE?!?!?
BLINKER: But that isn't granite. It's styrofoam! Any old arrow can penetrate styrofoam!
[Pause.]
BLINKER: I'm not seeing the problem here!
SYNTHIA [turns to camera]: I'm trying. I really am...
