Firefly fans will be ticked off at what I’m about to say, but so be it. I finally got around to watching Serenity, the movie based on the ill-fated Firefly TV series dumped before its time by Fox. And I have to say, Serenity just doesn’t make the cut as a standalone feature.
This is a [...]
I’m rediscovering Stephen King lately and how much fun he can be. At least, you gotta love him for being so prolific.
His latest horror novel is Cell, which is surely King’s literary revenge against annoying cellphone users.
In the book, a strange pulse is sent to cellphones, and anyone using a cellphone at the time of [...]
Can someone shoot the programming director over at the Sci Fi Channel? Now they are starting up a new show called Extreme Championship Wrestling. Look, I don’t have anything against wrestling, but it’s a SPORT, not science fiction.
What the hell is wrong with those people over there? Here we’ve got perfectly good sci-fi series like [...]
“Poseidon,” the remake of “The Poseidon Adventure,” has been getting some pretty bad reviews. I have been a huge fan of the original since I was a kid, so I catched “Poseidon” at a matinee earlier today to see how it measured up:
1. Special effects: Fantastic. Loved the rogue wave coming through, though you won’t [...]
It’s just a rumor, but the SciFi Channel might pick up “Invasion,” if the summer repeats they air there do well. It might not be a bad idea to write them a letter…
1971’s sci-fi thriller “The Andromeda Strain” may seem slow to modern audiences, but I love it. Based on Michael Crichton’s book, the film follows a group of scientists as they rush to find a cure for a deadly pathogen from outer space.
I’ve seen “The Andromeda Strain” a couple of times on TV, but it’s cut [...]
Nice send up of “Invasion” on Salon. But alas, no analysis on how ABC actively killed the show with their stupid scheduling.
“Invasion’s” season finale – alas, now its series finale – was fantastic. This was by far the best episode: Tom and Russ running around shooting at people, freaky pregnant hybrids, and good lordy, the end!!
SPOILER ALERT! Do not read further if you haven’t had a chance to catch up on your Tivo…
So they finally kill [...]
During the airing of the last “Lost” episode, a fake commercial for the Hanso foundation was shown with the following new Hanso URL: www.letyourcompassguideyou.com. You have to find the exact spot on the website to go further, and from there you’ll get a peek into the Hanso’s computer files.
We’re sure to see more interactive entertainment [...]
And some good news: “Supernatural” has been renewed and will be returning in the fall with 22 new episodes. Thank you, CW!
“Supernatural” is, in my mind, the natural heir to the “X-Files” throne and should only pick up steam as word of mouth continues. It’s also got great re-runability, so let’s hope it makes it [...]
