I wish I could time travel – Just to see these movies sooner.

Thought you were jazzed about Kick Ass? forget it. Watchmen? BO-ring.

These movies are making me drool to the swimming point. I just can’t get enough. And that’s just the trailers. *homina homina how-wah!*

First up is Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World – In which Micheal Cera is the title lead, who has to. … you know what, just watch the trailer.

Yeah. Just … Yeah. And apparently like Kick Ass, this is ALSO based on a little indie comic nobody but a few g33k(0RR comix-nerds have heard of. I’m just waiting for the Sluggy Freelance movie.

Next up: Another Disney adaptation of a Disney creation…. *facepalm* I really wish I were joking about that. And I really wish I could boycott it, but dammit, Just like POTC, this lo0ks freaking excellent!

‘This’ btw is the new Disney live-action film, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. *lacks words to describe* Just watch it. I’m serious. *drools all over himself*

I think Mickey just shit himself.

Nifty little game…

Imagine robotic men killing rogue robotic . . . robots. now imagine combining the levels system from rpg’s with the movement system from Legend of Zelda. What you get is an addictive, fast-paced, and wholly enjoyable game. If, that is, you’re any good at it. It took me a while to get the hang of it. In any case, check out the game here and see what I mean. ^^

For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,

When we have shuffled off this mortal coil?

Wonder no more, Hamlet. The Cylons know. And their story is about to be told, from the very beginning.

Since the days of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, my amazement, admiration, and envy have been without surcease or stoppage for Mr. Moore. Mr. Moore was by all accounts the driving force behind the majority of the elements that contributed to the critical acclaim and fan success of DS9.

He and Mr. Eick provided justification for my love of science fiction more recently with their unheard-of and beautiful re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica, requiescat in pace. (As a matter of fact, one of the reasons I loved the show was that it didn’t drag things out, like so many shows seem to.)

And now it looks like they’ve done it again. This pilot is beautiful, bringing to mind the miniseries that started this whole saga of re-invention off, with lush production values, gorgeous and capable actors, three dimensional plot and characters, and lastly, crisp, compelling, and believable dialogue.

Since I know that Messrs. Eick and Moore will keep it up, I can rest easy, assured once again of at least one intelligent science fiction show on the air.The world would be a bit poorer were it not for these shows. Our hats are off to you, sirs.

FYI: the show starts airing on fri. jan 22nd, at 9/8c, on *shudders* Syfy.
