The Greatest Sci-Fi Movies Never Made (Revised 2008) Book Review


David Hughes is a master at describing the “thrill of victory and the agony of defeat” that is the Hollywood movie mill. It takes a certain amount of skill to discuss a blockbuster that might have been in a way that leaves you wanting to find a way to buy the rights, get funding [...]

The X-Files 2: I Want to Believe (2008) Movie Review


When David Lynch’s quirky and often surreal “Twin Peaks” ended after just two seasons in 1991, I didn’t think anything could take its place. But I was wrong. In 1993, Chris Carter unleashed “The X-Files” upon the world. It was the answer to my, and million of others’, prayers. Inspired by the 1970s TV series [...]

Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008) Movie Review


A quick search on the Internet Movie Database shows that Jules Verne’s “Journey to the Center of the Earth” has been adapted for the screen (big and small) at least 10 times. There’s even a Filipino version! By Hollywood standards, this must not seem like overkill, because guess what? If you go to your local [...]

Stargate: Continuum (2008) Movie Review


Here’s a shocker: Jack O’Neill dies in the first few minutes of “Stargate: Continuum”. Now wait a minute, before you Stargate fans get all mad at me, let me say this: “Continuum” is a time travel story, so yes, Jack O’Neill dying, as well as Teal’C and Vala vanishing into thin air in a cloud [...]

Trailer for Alex Proyas’ Knowing


My enthusiasm for Alex Proyas’ “Knowing” didn’t exactly leap up there after seeing this first trailer for his upcoming movie “Knowing”, starring Nicolas Cage as a teacher who discovers that predictions made 50 years ago are coming true; worst, the predictions eventually run out, then what happens? The trailer is good, the kind of slick [...]

Trailers for The Mutant Chronicles


Wow, what a CGI fest. I knew that Simon Hunter’s “The Mutant Chronicles” was going to be heavy on the CGI, but I have to admit, I didn’t think it would be THIS heavy with CGI. I don’t think they ever went outside a warehouse to shoot this thing. Mind you, not that that is [...]

Video: Two New Clips from X-Files 2


Yahoo! Movies is currently hosting an exclusive two-minute clip from “The X-Files: I Want to Believe” (seriously, just typing that subtitle makes me feel dumber), which they say is the opening scene from the movie. It doesn’t actually look like an opening scene — it has a bunch of FBI agents, led by Billy Connolly [...]

First Images from Alex Proyas’ Knowing


It’s the end of the world in Alex Proyas’ latest, “Knowing”, and only Nicolas Cage and his ability to run really fast through crowds of confused people can save us all! And oh yeah, along the way he drags Rose Byrne to help out with all the legwork. Or at least, that’s what it seems [...]

Transformers 2 Set Pictures and Videos Galore


Apparently there were a whole lot of geeks in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania who knew that Michael Bay and crew were filming “Transformers 2″ over in their little city, and they were out and about in force with digital cameras snapping way. God, I love my fellow movie geeks. As a result of all the snapping, pictures [...]

James Cameron Talks Avatar Sci-Fi Tech

The Hollywood Reporter currently has an article that focuses on James Cameron’s return to moviemaking in 10 years. I am talking, of course, about Cameron’s “Avatar”, which is already two and a half years in the making, and is planned for a 2009 release. (I don’t think he’ll meet that deadline myself; Cameron is such [...]

Chuck Russell to Direct Sci-Fi Actioner Prodigy

I’ve always been a fan of director Chuck Russell. He doesn’t exactly have one you would call an outstanding film career behind the camera, but more often than not I end up liking his movies (”Eraser”, “The Scorpion King”). You would never really call them great, but they always end up being just good enough. [...]

George Lucas and company have released more images from their upcoming “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” movie in front of the film’s impending August 15, 2008 release date. Now those of you who have seen the cartoon show that the movie is based on probably won’t feel this way, but man, the animation style on [...]

The site wouldn’t say who their source is, but that he’s close to the production. What’s more, the source also gives [...]

Pat Mills’ American Reaper Headed to Big Screen

I’ve never heard of the comic book “American Reaper” (probably because it’s yet to be published, natch) but it sure sounds like something I’d enjoy. A nice combination of sci-fi, action, and probably political intrigue, given the subject matter. The series is by Pat Mills and Clint Langley, and Xingu Films has already snapped up [...]

X-Files: I Want to Believe Movie Reviews

Hey, in case you haven’t heard, the second “X-Files” movie, “I want to Believe”, which features the long-awaited reunion of Dana Scully and her paranoid partner Fox Mulder, opens today in theaters all across America. Now the question is, is this the sequel we’ve all been waiting for ever since 1998’s somewhat incomplete “Fight the [...]

Cowboy Bebop Live-Action Movie is Coming

It’s definitely good to be a Japanese anime fan nowadays. With “Robotech”, “Akira”, and “Ghost in the Shell” already gearing up for the big Hollywood treatment (with very notable names behind them, to boot!), fans of “Cowboy Bebop” can expect to see their show turned into a live-action movie sometime very soon. I’ve seen the [...]

The Day the Earth Stood Still Remake Posters

Who knows if Keanu Reeves and director Scott Derrickson’s remake of the 1951 classic “The Day the Earth Stood Still” will connect with audiences or make them leave the theater groaning in despair — no, not because of the movie’s contemporary message about global warming, but that they just spent another $10 watching Keanu Reeves [...]

Joss Whedon Reshooting Dollhouse Pilot

I know what you’re thinking: “Uh oh. FOX is doing it again.” Another Joss Whedon show, another FOX cancellation? I won’t blame you for thinking so after what FOX did to Whedon’s last show on the network, Firefly. Whedon’s latest show on the network is Dollhouse, starring Eliza Dushku, and according to Whedon himself, he [...]
