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 [...]
