If you haven’t been keeping up with all the news about the upcoming Star Wars films, we’re not sure where you’ve been the last few weeks, but we have you covered.  Quite a bit has been leaked about the films since Disney bought Lucasfilm, enough to possibly fill the hidden cargo holds on the Millenium Falcon. For [...]

Despite touting myself as a geek for years and being proud of that status, I didn’t realize conventions were actually a “thing” until I saw The Terminal and realized Zoe Saldana’s character was a Trekkie who loved going to cons.  At first I thought it was a joke, a cute little character development the writers [...]

Once upon a time, or more like ten years ago, this female gamer decided to buy her very first Xbox because she played Halo at a friend’s house and fell in love.  Ever since then, a passionate love affair has existed between her and subsequent Halo games, so of course you could expect her to [...]

Star Wars introduced me to geekdom. I was about ten years old when I first sat in front of a massive CRT and VHS setup on vacation at my cousin’s cabin in the woods.  Except I wasn’t scared in the least bit.  I was mesmerized.  So started fifteen years of action figures, extended universe books, [...]

Welcome to November – it seems like just yesterday we were putting candles inside of pumpkins and dressing up in costumes. Oh, wait. Halloween was last Wednesday. But while we regular citizens were dealing with trick-or-treaters or eating too much candy we bought for ourselves, many of our armed forces decided to do some zombie apocalypse training. [...]

Though many children (and some young adults) look forward to trick-or-treating every year, the fact of the matter is that the tradition we all attribute to Halloween is declining.  Though candy sales seem to be higher than last year, in general many families have noticed fewer trick-or-treaters, or at least fluctuating numbers over the years. [...]

For fans of the Halo universe, these past few weeks have been nothing less than a conglomeration of anticipation and teasing. The Forward Unto Dawn series released its first full-length episode instead of the short vignettes we’d received before, and NewEgg.com ran an incredible sale of $15 off the pre-order (if you missed out, sucks to be [...]

Can’t wait until Hitchcock with Anthony Hopkins is released? If you have access to HBO and are free tomorrow, you can watch another interpretation of the Master of Suspense’s life.   The Girl premieres as an HBO Films exclusive on October 20 at 9PM/8Central and focuses on the relationship between Alfred Hitchcock and The Birds actress Tippi [...]

His influence on Hollywood horror, suspense, and thriller films is legendary, so much so that he’s been dubbed “The Master of Suspense.”  He worked with hundreds of famous names during the production of his movies, acting and producing talent alike.  His name is known worldwide.  And yet no one thought to make a movie about [...]

You may not have heard of all of the characters in our Halloween countdown this year, and that’s okay.  We hope the articles have been enlightening if that’s the case.  But our next character is certainly one that everyone is well acquainted with, unless for some reason you’ve been living under a rock your entire [...]

Are you ready for another Quentin Tarantino film to blow your mind and possibly make you question your sanity?  We are.  Definitely. The second trailer for Django Unchained was released today, and now we’re wishing that time travel really was a thing so December would be here already. Merry Christmas, everyone. The film is set in [...]

Once upon a time, Tim Burton did what he does very well and gave us the movie Edward Scissorhands.  The hero of this movie was, as you can guess, Edward Scissorhands, a man created by an eccentric inventor (Vincent Price) who died before being able to give him regular hands.  Edward is taken in by [...]

In the world of film and television, there’s a lot of BS going on in regards to female characters, and usually the term BS implies that you’re dealing with people you’d rather avoid if at all possible.  Take one BS-er for example: Bella Swan.  Many girls adore her story, torn between the affections of a [...]

Alfred Hitchcock may no longer be walking this earth, but his cinematic influence has yet to disappear entirely.  Directors of horror films will still say they are going for that Hitchcock-like sense of terror and tension, and other directors simply decide to remake his stories entirely.  We’ve seen several well-known remakes already, including Mission: Impossible [...]

Yesterday, science and science fiction sites alike exploded with the news that German scientists had found out some interesting information about a carved Tibetan statue originally discovered by Nazis in the 1930s.  The Nazis were definitely not known for their interest in Buddhist-type religions, yet the swastika-like symbol on the statue’s chest is probably what [...]

When you combine transportation by horses, bows and arrows and swords, and small villages that farm produce and raise sheep, you would think that you’re stepping into a historical drama, possibly one from Medieval Europe.  However, this is actually the setting of our future, according to one new TV show. The much-anticipated pilot of J.J. [...]
