I like all things “Space: 1999,” which is why when I saw this ship from the “Futurama” movie “Bender’s Game” I had to post it. That grey spacecraft is an Eagle, the ubiquitous transport craft from the groundbreaking Gerry Anderson series.
A new version of “The Munsters” being developed by Bryan Fuller (Pushing Daisies, Heroes), and directed by Bryan Singer (The Usual Suspects, X-Men, X-Men United, and the upcoming “Jack, The Giant Killer”) will be called “Mockingbird Lane.” My problem with this concept, besides verifying a suspicion I have had for awhile that Hollywood is bereft […]
Accordimg to Deadline, in the CW’s “Arrow,” based upon Green Arrow, an emerald-costumed archer from DC Comics, the title character is being played by Stephen Amell. I recall him from “Screamers: The Hunting,” and hope that he brings more to the role than than what he exhibited in that film, which was a woodenness that […]
As a fan of “The Walking Dead” and other things of a horrific nature (I am also fond of HP Lovecraft and his Cthulhu Mythos, though truth be told I prefer the writing of August Derleth, who unlike HP Lovecraft treated humans as if they were actually more than a food source) I sometimes wonder […]
There’s a rumor that Jon Bernthal, who plays Shane Walsh on AMC’s zombie series, is leaving the show soon. Not unusual on the face of it, people leave television shows all the time, even successful ones. But when the show he’s supposedly to be going to, L.A. Noir, is being developed by…wait for it….Frank Darabont, […]
I have heard of “Star Wars Uncut: Director’s Cut,” but before watching most of it I had no idea how remarkable a project it is. Started by Casey Pugh in 2009, it is a complete version of “Star Wars: A New Hope,” but made up of a few hundred 15-second increments by different individuals, that, […]
Remember that Green Arrow TV show that Greg Berlanti is writing–if for my seemingly endless whining, if nothing else–that I mentioned a week or so ago? It’s been green lit, pardon the pun, for a pilot on the CW network, to be called “Arrow.” I am not quite sure why the “Green” part is being […]
For those of you that haven’t seen “Archer” on FX, imagine James Bond, only he’s American, sorta stupid, and extremely dysfunctional. Why there hasn’t been a feature film version (with real people, instead of cartoons) I have no idea.
“Green Lantern,” a film that should have been the first salvo of DC Comics assault on the box office, and Marvel Studios, has almost reached the $220 million mark worldwide. That’s a lot of money, though when your production budget is $200 million, we aren’t necessarily talking about sequel material, despite what Warner Bros. says (by the […]
Don’t you hate it when television shows talk down to you? I can’t stand it it when people do, never mind TV. I ask because a few weeks ago iTunes had the entire first season of “House of Anubis” available as a free download. That might still be the case, but just the thought is […]
