Cord is an imperial marine in trouble. When you insult the wrong officer, you get assigned to Gehenna Station, a remote outpost on a barren mining planet. Lieutenant Cord’s new “platoon,” six marines and a droid, have a suicide assignment. They must battle the planet’s raptor population. The fast-moving dinosaurs, introduced to the planet via pirated genetic material, kill marines. Assignment to the “Punishment Platoon” may well be a death sentence!The bad news gets worse. The murderous Quog, an alien race that competes with humans for the resources of the universe, have plans for the planet. How can Cord’s platoon stop the Quog when they can barely stay alive themselves?J.R. Hume’s science fiction tale is a fast-moving romp. Dinosaurs! Marines! Aliens! The pulp elements are great fun. But the author holds the story together with serious notions, weaving subtext and action seamlessly. At its heart, Gehenna Station is a story of men-at-arms. The characterizations go beyond the genre’s
Star Wars Imperial Stormtroopers, Infantry only?
In the Star Wars Expanded Universe, do Star Wars Imperial Stormtroopers operate vehicles such as the AT-ST? (Chicken Walker in the Return of the Jedi) In imperial troopers that movie, SCOUT Troopers used Speeder bikes, but that it is. The AT-ATs and AT-STs in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi respectively, were manned by soldiers of the "Imperial Army," never actually mentioned in those movies, BUT in the Star Wars Expanded Universe, of which I have to admit am not very familiar, but curious on this point. Just curious on Stormtrooper transportation.

I am enjoying Varese Sarabande right now as I write this review. It is a true stress reliever. Totally love it. I also play this CD and the 30th anniversary edition to my third graders. They recognize some of the music from movies that they have seen. What a wonderful learning atmosphere it helps to create in my classroom.
Released several years ago for the 25th Anniversary of Varese Sarabande, the entreprising label devoted almost exclusively to film scores, this inexpensive compilation is good way to sample many compelling scores from the last few decades of movies. I will run down through some highlights.
The first disc contains much of the best music on this collection. Angelo Badalamenti’s theme from David Lynch’s “Blue Velvet”. Also a selection from Maurice Jarre’s score to “Witness”. John Carpenter’s simplistic yet creepy theme from his classic “Halloween”. Charles Bernstein’s sinister opening credits music to “A Nightmare on Elm Street”. Howard Shore’s beautiful and dramatic end theme to the Cronenberg film, “The Fly”. One of my absolute favorites on this disc is undoubtedly the “Robocop” theme by the late, great Basil Poledouris which is one of the most inspiring action themes from the 1980s. Then we get the familiar march from “The Empire Strikes Back” by John Williams. I also love the all American score by Bill Conti composed for the film “The Right Stuff”. Alan Silvestri contributes a selection from his score to James Cameron’s “The Abyss”, mixing orchestra with a grand choral contribution. It’s strange that most of the best music at least to my ears is contained here on the first disc. The other three CDs have much less interesting material but how can one forget Poledouris again in the big march from “Starship Troopers” as well as a selection from Don Davis’ score to the sci-fi blockbuster “The Matrix”.
It’s clear that Varese Sarabande intended for this compilation to be more of a sampler to whet your appetite for the full scores instead of giving you much in the way of musical substance. Most tracks don’t run much longer than four minutes but it’s plenty enough to hold all the famous themes and melodies from these movies. Varese Sarabande has also released a 30th Anniversary Celebration recently with no overlap with this set whatsoever. I get a bang of having these themes in my library as most of the full scores aren’t exactly great classics, so it’s a great idea to have a compilation of all the winning and recognizable numbers together in one place. The very low asking price also helps greatly indeed.
