This looks like they put in a modern setting again, which is still somewhat contrary to Alien mythos, but it still looks good. Quite gory, as a matter of fact. It does not look like they held anything back. Wow! Of course, I will see it. I just wish these directors would just swallow their…

Sci-Fi – anything else sci-fi
Flash Gordon Season Premier
I have always been a big fan of Flash Gordon. I first watched the cartoon on Saturday mornings and loved it. I also watched the 1930s serials on PBS when they aired them. I loved several aspects of it. I loved Mongo. It was an incredible world with diverse people, all fighting each other and not ever…
Painkiller Jane getting too painful
You know, there is the so-called “jump the shark” moment that many shows hit and then there is somethign else that a beginning show hits that looses its viewers. I do not know what to call it but Painkiller Jane has just about reached it for me. There is only so-far that a hot blond…
The Dresden Files vs. Torchwood
Well, I watched the first episode of The Dresden Files and am somewhat underwhelmed. It feels like another version of “Buffy.” It has its own little quirks but I am concerned about how it will stay original and re-do old Buffy plots. I’ll watch it but right now, I am neutral about it. Personally, I think…
Stargate 2099 (an unfinished idea)
IDEA: With SG-1 possibly going off the air and more talk of spin-offs, I thought what if the advanced the timeline 90 or so years, after the Stargate has been revealed and the military has a fleet of ships.What would it be like? Would the revelation cause serious upheavel? Would the public be more mad…
AvP2 Announced
I`ve seem a couple of articles on this. I am not impressed with the directors. This is apparently their debut feature film and the only things they have done before was music videos. Anyone remember Alien 3. Plus they are placing it on Earth AGAIN and I assume in modern times (since that’s the cheapest…
Stargate Movie sequel in the works
Dean Devlin finally got the OK. And he plans to totally ignore the plots lines of the TV show. Dean Devlin and the Stargate Sequels This is bugging the crap out of me. He says he won’t touch the mythology established in SG-1 but that is a double edged sword. He also says the second movie…
Verdict – The Star Wars Prequels: Where Lucas went wrong
I got fired up and I wrote my final verdict on Star Wars. What is essentially wrong with Ep 1, 2 and 3 (in my humble opinion) There are several places I could point out that Lucas went wrong in the 3 new Star Wars movies. Overall, the 3 new movies left me unsatisfied worse than…
Interview with David Franklin (Farscape)
With Ben Browder and Claudia Black joining the cast of Stargate SG-1, are you likely to stay with Science Fiction as well or concentrate on drama? As much as I enjoy doing do sci -fi I enjoy working in all sorts of dramatic forms. I’d love to do some more comedy. How did it feel…
Verdict – Battlestar Galactica mini-series
What is it about purest that makes them so stuck on one way of doing things? Change is good. I’ve been browsing the web lately, finding Battlestar Galactica sites to see reaction to the new mini-series. I cannot believe the fury over the mini-series. There was reasonably strong support for a continuation of the original instead…
