6. Giant stop-motion scorpions.
7. There’s a frog-like creature with fangs who oversees an arm-wrestling match, in which he snacks on the throat of the loser. Them’s high stakes!

9. Issac Hayes.
10. Carel Struckyen.
11. George Takei overacts more than William Shatner ever did.
12. Musetta Vander’s barely there black-leather getup.
13. Seriously, her costume — as it were — really deserves one more mention.
14. The end-credit promise of “TO BE CONTINUED.” (Why no double-feature disc with “Oblivion 2: Backlash,” Shout! Factory?)
15. Did I mention the giant stop-motion scorpions?
16. It’s about cowboys and aliens. And there’s no way this summer’s “Cowboys & Aliens” with Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford will be more fun than this, is there? —Rod Lott
