When reviewing something as potentially dangerous (at least from a reviewer’s point of view) as a movie based on a popular novel by a very popular genre author like Jules Verne, it’s best to come right out and say it: I have never read the original novel, and I am not exactly well-versed...

BSG’s Katee Sackhoff Lands on DVD with White Noise 2

You know, I’m such a big fan of Katee Sackhoff. Which is really odd, because when I first saw her on BSG, I wasn’t such a big fan at all. Then, her character just grew on me. Or was it Katee Sackhoff who grew on me? Either way, she’s such a great gal, and was, bar none, the single best...
