Did you catch the FlashForward – the season so far – recap on ABC last night?
Great stuff – in one hour it captured all the major plotlines of the story so far and succinctly summarized them.
We watched the recap along with someone that hadn’t seen a single episode before – and now she can [...]
Yeaah we’re fans of the new Dynamite Buck Rogers series.
The latest issue #9 starts off a new story arc where we get more insight into the status of Earth.
You see in this version of Buck Rogers, Earth isn’t ruled by just one unified group. There are rulers of the ground, the underground (the weirdos [...]
Man is Caprica a slooooow show. This past week’s episode The Imperfections of Memory did however fill on some key new dramatic points.
Joseph Adama has finally made it into V-world which is great, but we suspect they’re going to stretch it out until he actually finds Tamra – maybe 6 episodes from now at [...] Yeaah Caprica is still a slow and plodding show. But its depth of plot complexity is interesting.
This week’s episode – Know Thy Enemy -didn’t include anything on Tamra Adama, which we were really hoping for.
Instead we get Vergis — the Tauron businessman that is now out to destroy Greystone — need stuff and kind [...]
Sooo much going on in this one issue it’s hard to review, but also ooooooh so enjoyable.

Even more surprising is that she is trying to turn Cade back to [...] Caprica is a slow show – but the last two episodes (5&6) especially this week’s episode There Is Another Sky really are helping to pick the show up.
The Greystone’s are now finally starting to build out the Cylon race – hurrah! since we suspect that Daniel Greystone is one of the final 6 cylons.

Darth Bane Dynasty of Evil is the third – and final book in the Darth Bane Trilogy. We’ve previously reviewed Darth Bane Path of Destruction (in 2006) and Darth Bane Rule of Two. The first two books were among the best Star Wars books ever written.

After 50 issues it’s over.

Our favorite Star Trek TOS episode has always been Mirror Mirror – where the Federation doesn’t exist and instead the Terran Empire reigns supreme and humans act more like the Klingons.

Skynet and its army of Terminator WILL BE BACK! But not by way of the moron that put out Terminator 4 (aka Terminator Salvation).

The 2-picture construct takes place in a post-apocalyptic [...]
I don’t know what’s up with this trend for having women from SciFi shows posing in risque positions for men’s magazines.
The latest actress is Fringe’s Agent Olivia Dunham – played by actress Anna Torv.

And oh yeah there is a full 2 [...]
We’re still figuring out Caprica – and Zoe Greystone played by actress Alexxandra Torresani.
Torresani managed to find the time to pose for Maxim – in some of the most airbrushed pics we’ve ever seen. It’s not clear how much is actually the actress and how much is just photoshop.
Still – they’re great pics – though [...] Third episode of Caprica – gives us more insight into the mysterious Soliders of the One (STO) – and their leader.

Last we saw Doctor Rush he was abandoned by the Destiny – left for dead.

So at long last Olivia know has the power to see things from the other side…
and months after the rest of us…

Star Trek Online is now out but it’s not all that cheap to play— though the gameplay is sweet.

That aside it was cool to [...]
