		<description><![CDATA[I originally tried to write a traditional review for this new incarnation of “Riverworld”, but found it too difficult. The review just never came together, which happens when I find myself writing about a movie that I neither loved nor hated. “Riverworld” falls somewhere in there. As a result, I’ve written this non-traditional review. Please to enjoy.

WHAT IS IT: “Riverworld” is the second attempt by the SyFy Channel to create a TV series around the fantasy/science fiction novels by author Philip Jose Farmer, with the first one being 2003’s “Riverworld” (back when the channel was still the Sci Fi Channel). The 2010 version stars Tahmoh Penikett (of “Battlestar Galactica” and “Dollhouse” fame) and Laura Vandervoort (of “Smallville” fame). Penikett is Matt, a war journalist who is finally ready to settle down and Vandervoort is Jessie, a blonde, gorgeous tour guide. As Matt is popping the question to Jessie, a suicide bomber cocks block him, and it’s off to Riverworld for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since it first started screening at genre festivals a while back, “Splice” has been garnering rabid word of mouth and a reputation for being one of the hottest science fiction/horror tickets for some time. Having gone down particularly well at prestigious gatherings such as Sundance and Stiges, the film has now been picked up for wider distribution, with a summer release slot having apparently been staked out, surely a great show of confidence in its quality. 
The film was directed by Vincenzo Natali, still probably best known for his 1997 brain teaser “Cube”, and boasts a vaguely top drawer cast headlined by Adrien Brody, presumably still trying to live down his bizarre performance in Argento’s “Giallo”, and Sarah Polley. Add to this a potentially fascinating and controversial premise involving DNA tomfoolery and some superb special effects, and “Splice” certainly seems to tick all the right boxes. Sadly, it also ticks all the wrong boxes, and despite a few flashes of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So first things first, a little history and clarification on this project. This film started life as a script written by Dwayne McDuffie (Justice League/JLU) to bridge the gap between &#8220;Justice League&#8221; and what was initially pitched as a spin-off show but became &#8220;Justice League Unlimited.&#8221; When JLU became a continuation of the JL the film was scrapped, but the idea eventually became the episode &#8220;A Better World&#8221; featuring the &#8220;Justice Lords,&#8221; totalitarian versions of the Justice League. The original script titled &#8220;Justice League: Worlds Collide,&#8221; which borrowed ideas from an old Gardner Fox &#8220;Crisis&#8221; storyline that first introduced the &#8220;Crime Syndicate&#8221;, and Grant Morrison&#8217;s &#8220;Earth 2,&#8221; which reintroduced the group into modern day, was shelved but remained a plausible idea for DC&#8217;s then upcoming series of direct to DVD films. Years later with a few tweaks to make it follow a continuity not connected to the JL/JLU universe, but still great if you were a fan of the show. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Anyone who sat through &#8220;Legion&#8221; would do well to petition Christian leaders to add a 13th Commandment, one that would prevent filmmakers from dragging God into their ridiculous and boring movies. Which is, to put it kindly, exactly what this sluggishly inept project is. &#8220;Legion&#8221; has a phenomenally talent cast that works overtime, but they can&#8217;t stem the tide of incompetency that constantly washes over the film.         
&#8220;Legion&#8221; has a great beginning, with the Archangel Michael falling to Earth and commandeering a staggering amount of guns from a illegal cache that is conveniently always around whenever you need them. Then off he heads in a police car to a diner located in the microscopic town of Paradise Falls. For a long time, we learn, God grown angry with humanity. Now the fecal matter has hit the wind producing device, and God&#8217;s decided to wipe out his disobedient creations. The only hope for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are some films that you instantly fall in love with, that will forever hold a place in your heart, even when watching a chopped up version on G4. Then there&#8217;s films you fall in love with, want to marry and have children with, with eventually retire to a condo in Florida while fondly musing what a sequel could hold. &#8220;Daybreakers&#8221; falls squarely in the latter category, a film that will have you dialing 411 in search of a wedding planner moments after exiting the theater. 
&#8220;Daybreakers&#8221; presents a world where vampires have become the dominant species on the planet, thanks to a briefly mentioned vampire outbreak in 2009. Now it&#8217;s 10 years later, and daily life has mutated into a bizarre society that might have been a fever dream of Bram Stoker and Marshall Mcluhan. Dusk is now the beginning of everyone&#8217;s day, with adults getting their morning liftoff juice of coffee and blood, while vampric teens wait for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What all fans have been talking about was David Tennant handing the reins over to Matt Smith; to the point where that&#8217;s all they talked about- on the internet, during dinner, in the middle of sex, to long suffering spouses and pretty much any poor soul they could find. In some respect you couldn&#8217;t blame them, in their eyes Tennant had become almost like a member of the family.  With his 5th season playing The Doctor essentially becoming a five episode farewell tour, everything has built up to this epic but foolishly aired finale.
With all the intense media fellatio regarding the departure of the 10th Doctor, many overlook the fact that this is farewell to Russell T. Davies, the creative force who took the franchise from rusting in drydock to ratings smash. Davies doesn&#8217;t pass up a chance to tie up all the loose ends of the past five years into one dense, a grandly dramatic au revoir. The plot of &#8220;The End of Time&#8221; could easily fit into another five or six episodes, but all Davies has is two [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Right away I&#8217;m going to tell you that my biggest challenge in writing this review of &#8220;Avatar&#8221; is to keep my gushing to a minimum. A task that is going to be almost impossible. &#8220;Avatar&#8221; blew doors off that I didn&#8217;t even know I had on the car.
I saw &#8220;Avatar&#8221; last night at my local IMAX in maximum impact 3D. Your experiences in other 3D or 2D presentations may differ. I went two hours early and was second in line (drat!).  I thought I knew what I was in for. You&#8217;ll think you are prepared. You are not prepared. &#8220;Avatar&#8221; is a brand new movie going experience. It is shock and awe. It is not the technological and story telling evolution I was expecting. Instead, it is a revolution. Go ahead and roll your eyes. I was a little cynical too. How could this movie possibly exceed the almost ridiculous expectations piled on top of it? I&#8217;ll tell you how. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After delving into Life On The Border and immersing myself in such  a wonderful story I began to ponder the Urban Fantasy genre a bit more seriously, after all it has been years since  this fantasy niche showed up and now its burning up the readers charts.
So I went looking to see what else might tumble from the historical annals of this  genre and got lucky - I found a copy of Emma Bull&#8217;s  The War For The Oaks.
Over the years I have seen this book held aloft by all types of fantasy readers and it didn&#8217;t seem to matter if they preferred wizards to elves or unicorns to dragons &#8211; once the conversation turned to this unassuming story even the sallow wallflowers would start talking -and now I totally get it.  It has Rock n Roll, a great city setting and enough &#8220;Edge of Seventeen&#8221; characters to make daydreaming of summer nights in the middle of winter an enjoyable feeling. 
Interestingly enough War for the Oaks also defined this genre in a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Your weekly dose of Stargate Universe recap is a little late this week. There was some unpleasantness on Friday night involving Christmas intoxicants. I won&#8217;t elaborate. Late Friday night has ceased to exist in my buffer. But, thanks to the miracle that is the internet, I have just finished viewing the best episode of SGU thus far, an episode called &#8220;Justice&#8221;.
I&#8217;m never sure what to expect when I tune in on Friday night (or Monday) for my weekly dose of Universe. To be honest, that uncertainty is one of the attractions of the show for me now. You just never know what you&#8217;re going to get. Since I must admit some emotional attachment to the show, I feel some nervousness and anxiety everytime I tune in. I want it to be good. I love the fact that the show is gradually getting better. It is getting better and &#8220;Justice&#8221; was the payoff to all of us stubborn stick-with-its.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a fan of revisiting quality books from days gone by. Sometimes I do it just because I loved the story so much that I want to reconnect with the characters again and other times I revisit to see if the story holds up. This week I was reminded of  the Borderland Series by Terri Windling, a friend of mine had stumbled upon Life on the Border and wouldn&#8217;t stop talking about it. This of course prompted me to go dig it out and read it again.
 Now I could write volumes about Life on the Border but it&#8217;s not necessary. If you look it up on the Internet you will find so much information out there that you&#8217;ll need water wings to stay afloat &#8211; tons of people have written about this book and the series it hails from. At one time it was so fresh and bright that it literally blinded everyone that cracked its covers and well, I guess it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bruce Willis’ “Surrogates” may have had a good idea going in, but the result is … middling. To be sure, as with any big-budget sci-fi film, it’s enjoyable enough on a base level, but this isn’t a movie that people will be using to salute Bruce Willis when the “Die Hard” star signs off to visit that Big Hollywood Sky. It’s a vanilla effort, disappointingly so given all the talent (not to mention money) involved. Jonathan Mostow is a good director with a knack for action, but his work here feels restrained and muted. I’m not sure how much of the idea survived from the script by Michael Ferris and John D. Bracato, or from the original source material, a comic book by Robert Venditti and Brett Weldele, but what’s left is average at best, not-even-trying at worst.
It is the future, and lifelike robotic surrogates have become commonplace. In fact, they’re so commonplace that only a small portion of the [...]]]></description>

I gave it a momentary thought and said ‘Sure! I don’t need art to be able to read’ so he went into his bathroom and came out with Beggars in Spain. I smiled and said ‘cool’ and he said ‘good luck genius ’.  Hey now, I’m no ‘pure read’ slacker! I can read with the best of them- I’ve got the William Gibson library, the Neal Stephenson criticals and ALL the Rudy Rucker’s and I know the answer to Do Androids Dream of Electric sheep? So don’t go taunting me with a Nancy Kress novel. No sir, I will read this book and lay to waste all reviewers that have come before me.

		<description><![CDATA[What would you actually do all day if you were marooned on a million year old starship, bound for who the hell knows and stuck with a motley band of cranky (or homicidal) crew? The ninth episode of SGU attempts to realistically explain this and also how to tastefully (maybe too tastefully) handle the sticky problem of space lesbians.
What exactly happened last night on the SGU? I guess it was another of those setup episodes where we establish the real people bona fides of our friends aboard the Destiny. Fill in more back story and hopefully build some empathy toward them should they actually face any real danger on the show. I don&#8217;t have an issue with a good back story. It&#8217;s vital to understand what these people are about. I find the home lives of people in the Stargate Universe, ah, universe to be pretty fascinating. The timeline these folks occupy is only slightly in our future if it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s a brave new world in America, as Anna and the Visitors prepare to establish official diplomatic ties with the Government, thanks in part to a willing media led by the very bias reporting of Chad Decker (Scott Wolf). Meanwhile, the Resistance of Two – aka FBI Agent Erica Evans (Elizabeth Mitchell) and Father Jack (Joel Gretsch) &#8212; continue their quest to find strength in numbers. Step one: find everyone who was at the warehouse that fateful night, including the AWOL Georgie (David Richmond-Peck).  For his part, former V sleeper soldier turned human sympathizer Ryan (Morris Chestnut) goes in search of the remaining members of the V Fifth Column, a group of V rebels now scattered to the wind. As we learn toward the end of tonight’s episode, “A Bright New Day”, you just never know when those spunky Fifth Columns will show up next. While last week’s episode was a paranoid, tightly-wound continuation of the pilot, “A Brave [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since it was announced that &#8220;Lost&#8221; was going to the great DVR in the sky, viewers have been seeking a successor to the science fiction/mystery/drama/paranormal series. So far, &#8220;V&#8221;, &#8220;Flash Forward&#8221;, and thanks to the bizarre antics of judge Bruno Tonioli, &#8220;Dancing With The Stars&#8221;, have all arrived to try to give viewers their weekly fix of the strange and unexplainable. Now AMC throws their hat in the ring, with a brooding re-imagining of &#8220;The Prisoner&#8221;, and it just may be one of the season&#8217;s best yet.
&#8220;The Prisoner&#8221; opens with a man waking up in a mountainous desert area. He can&#8217;t remember who he is, where he is, or how he got there. In his disorientation, he sees an elderly man running from guards. Before dying, the old man gasps a message, to tell 554 he found a way out. Out of where? Who is 554? The man soon finds out, when he awakes in a hospital  and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite the inconsistent beginning to Stargate Universe, I&#8217;m beginning to think, after last nights planetary bombardment of wicked called &#8220;Time&#8221;, that we may really have a Sci-Fi show that wants to be something good. &#8220;Time&#8221; had some of the classic elements of a really memorable episode for any Sci-Fi show. Let&#8217;s review.
I was deeply confused. A landing party of non Redshirts gate into an alien jungle hellhole. They&#8217;re looking for food apparently. All the action is captured by floating ballcam Kino. People start feeling a little woozy. A quarantine of sorts is arranged. That night, as the healthy tend to the sick, nasty leech like screeching chest burrowers drop out of the jungle and begin to chomp on a few of the lesser known crew members. The danger is wicked and real. The only problem with all this is the previews that we saw either at the end of last weeks tepid &#8220;Earth&#8221;, or during our travels here at The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh, so I had  an idea, I&#8217;ll rent one of the worst movies I can find.
Nobody ever says that on the way to get a movie right? It&#8217;ll be an EXPERIMENT!
So I did it. I went in the video store and started looking for something that I was sure would make me throw the remote and scream. Some people go looking for movies to entertain them, to provoke their thoughts or just make them feel good. Not me, not on this night, I wanted to see what happens when tons of money get poured into a film that just bombs&#8230;.I wanted to see the &#8216;wrongness&#8217; of it all. Yep on this night I was determined to be a gawker at the scene of  a celluloid  accident, grimacing and flinching but never looking away, not even for a second. I wanted all the horror of it all.
The Cave, released back in August of 2005 by Sony/Screen Gems actually fell 54% in ratings in it&#8217;s second week [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So what do you do after you’ve killed your partner of seven years and discovered that he was actually a space alien in disguise? For FBI agent Erica Evans (Elizabeth Mitchell), it means lying through her teeth when her boss and the FBI wonder what’s happened to agent Dale Maddox (Alan Tudyk, who gets two brief cameos in tonight’s episode). There’s good news and bad news for our FBI heroine: the bad news is that Erica, as a good liar as she is, has a very insightful boss (Roark Critchlow) who sees holes in her story, but the good news is that the Visitors know how to cover their tracks. By the time the FBI shows up at the warehouse where the fledging human resistance and Visitor commandos threw down at the end of the pilot, there are no traces of a fight or bodies. Erica is safe … for now. Meanwhile, Father Jack (Joel Gretsch) struggles about what to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Christian Alvart’s “Pandorum” is a creature feature horror film set in space. In that respect, the movie doesn’t really depend on its sci-fi elements in the least, and its premise could have been easily transplanted to any isolated location that requires a large group of people to be locked away from civilization. The grungy, dark spaceship interiors and its many winding, bulky corridors could easily have been swapped for an underground research base, for example. But hey, who’s complaining? It’s been a long time since sci-fi has looked this dark, gritty, and grungy. And of course, deadly.
Set many years in the future, “Pandorum” stars Ben Foster as Bower, a crewman onboard the spaceship Elysium. Bower, along with fellow crewman Lieutenant Payton (Dennis Quaid), are tasked with ensuring that their ship’s cargo – humans in hypersleep &#8212; are successfully transported to a distant alien planet for colonization.  Somewhere along the way, something has malfunction or gone terribly wrong, and Bower [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been written that cannibals refuse to eat divorced women because they are too bitter. They&#8217;d be wise to adopt the same attitude towards anyone who sat through &#8220;The Fourth Kind&#8221;, it&#8217;s hard to feel anything else when exiting this failed experiment in scifi cinema verite. What makes the film such a catastrophic failure is that is has so much potential, that writer/director Olantunde Osunsami never seems capable of coming close to fulfilling. &#8220;The Fourth Kind&#8221; could have been an amazing faux documentary on alien home invasions in the remotest part of America, but instead all we&#8217;re offered is a rather boring film that&#8217;s occasionally spiked with something mildly interesting.  
If you&#8217;re inclined to believe the film, there were things more disturbing than Sarah Palin&#8217;s moose hunting going on in Alaska during the final months of 2000. Specifically in the city of Nome, where psychiatrist Dr. Abbey Tyler starts getting results she hadn&#8217;t bargained for from her hypnotherapy sessions. [...]]]></description>
