Advertising as A Sci Fi Evil - See the Trailer for 'Branded'
Advertising as the bad guy isn't a new theme in Sci Fi. If you've ever heard of a book called 'The Space Merchants', then you know what I'm talking about. If you've never heard about 'The Space Merchants', written by Cyrll Kornbluth and Frederik Pohl, I urge you do so as soon as possible - it's one of the all time greats from the 'Golden Age' of science fiction (before sparkly vampires). If you know about the films of John Carpenter, you may have seen his fun film 'They Live', starring Rowdy...
The Discovery of the Alien Quadrilogy – Part III
My imagination, or as my mother called it ADHD, runs wild in anticipation of Alien3. Alien to the power of 3? What can this possibly mean? Does the alien from the first film come back three times as big? Or are they just saying that it’s three times better than the first? Is this an alternate sequel to Alien? Otherwise the film would have just been called Aliens 2? Or More Aliens? Or Alienses? So many possibilities, all of which set me up to be wildly disappointed. Apparently Alien3 just looked...
Wave Your Wand WIth Harry Potter Kinect!
Harry Potter fans - it's been too long. The movies have come and gone, Pottermore is Potter-less and there's no new books to come. What's a Hufflepuff to do? Get that wizard wand a-waving, that's what! 'Harry Potter for Kinect' is coming to the Xbox 360 this Spring. Based on all eight Harry Potter films, Harry Potter for Kinect allows players to join Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger as they embark on a journey through Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry - and beyond. ...
The Discovery of the Alien Quadrilogy – Part II
To make a commitment to a two and a half hour film on a Tuesday night was something of a task - pizza was needed! So with more than a slice I sat down to continue my extra-terrestrial education with James Cameron's 'Aliens'. Straight away two burning questions were answered. One, did the cat survive? And two, what the hell did Paul Reiser ever do besides 'Mad About You'? Yes the cat did survive and it turns out Paul Reiser is in 'Aliens'. Alas seconds later we find out Ripley was just having a...
Tricia Helfer Is Coming To Australia This June!
Supanova Pop Culture Expo’s tenth anniversary events in Sydney and Perth are rapidly approaching, and they've just announced that actress Tricia Helfer will be coming to Australia! Tricia, a former fashion model for labels like Chanel, Dior, Versace and Givenchy, first appeared on the small screen as the producer and host of Canada’s Next Top Model, but for Sci Fi fans - she will always be known as the sexy star of Battlestar Galactica - the legendary Number Six. If you didn't know that...
Welcome To Caprica
Caprica is coming to SCI FI June 1! Did you miss it the first time around? Now you can watch it on the The Sci Fi Channel! Now of course, as a Sci Fi fan, you know that Caprica is the spinoff/prequel to the re-imagined masterpiece that was Battlestar Galactica. It's light on Cylons, but heavy on intrigue, and features life on the planet Caprica decades before the events of The First Cylon War. If you haven't watched any BSG at all, don't fret. You can still enjoy Caprica completely....
Tim Burton's Caketrope
If you ever wanted to see what the mind of Tim Burton looked like as a chocolate cake, now's your chance. Created by French baker Alexandre Dubosc, this is a combination of foodstuff and zoetrope, to create the wonderful creation that is a 'caketrope'. It's the kind of thing you can watch for hours, as the monster eyeballs become Batman logos. That doesn't sound like it makes sense, but when you see this video, you'll understand. The mind of Tim Burton - mysterious, interesting, and...
The Discovery of the Alien Quadrilogy - Part I
Alien. The second I say that word out loud electric blue light blowing up the White House comes to mind. That is quickly followed by an image of Will Smith as the Fresh Prince only because it's hard for me to picture him as anyone else. You say that word to someone 10 years my senior and they will start to re-enact something bursting out of their stomach! So why doesn't that pop straight into my head? Well, two things; I'm a child of the nineties, and to be honest (and I'm ashamed to say...
Mads Mikkelson In Talks To Be The Villain in Thor 2
Mads Mikkelsen looks like he may be taking a trip to the Marvel Universe. Variety reports that the Casino Royale bad guy is in talks to play the villain in Thor 2. Who is that villain? Not Loki. Sooo - if you know your Thor comic book mythology - let the speculation begin! Why not Loki? Because Tom Hiddleston is already starring in it. Soooo - someone worse than Loki. Sweet. The film will mark the third big screen appearance of Chris Hemsworth's Thor and Tom Hiddleston's Loki following...
When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Use The Scamander
The Warthog might be Master Chief's vehicle of choice in the Halo games, but once he sees the amphibious Scamander, we suspect he'll be putting in an official requisition for a new ride. The off-road vehicle was originally envisioned by Peter Wheeler, owner of British sports car manufacturer TVR for 23 years, but he passed away before it came to fruition. So his wife and a team of engineers made sure the vehicle was eventually built, and Evo magazine had a chance to take it for a spin. Long...
