After five episodes focusing on other crew members, Cowboy Bebop gets back to an episode built more around Spike that also the reveals more about his ship, the Swordfish. Some exciting and amusing space battles take place and once again an artefact from Earth’s past plays a major role.
In a fortnight, Jodie Whittaker becomes the fourth Doctor Who to abandon the traditional Saturday night fixture. Only 14 days to go. She is also the second Doctor to have a first episode on a Sunday. And gosh, I’m excited. Didn’t expect that. Just wish they hadn’t borrowed McGann’s “It’s about time” tag.
I really can’t say I’d mind ending up in the supposedly boring village featured in the 2010 Doctor Who episode “Amy’s Choice”. Filmed in a village called Skenfrith in Wales, plenty of beautiful location shots sell the place marvellously, albeit under the fictional name of Upper Leadworth. Watching it again, I was…
1973-75 NBC. Filmation. 22 episodes.
To most fans, the concept of condensing The Dark Tower story down to an hour and thirty-five minutes is understandably ridiculous and ripe for incredulity. But conceive it someone did, and the movie was made. So could an ultra-CliffNotes version of a Stephen King epic told over 8 novels work? Yes. Yes it can.
Well, that didn’t last very long, did it? As IO9 didn’t have a GIF party yesterday after two weeks in a row, here’s your chance to dump anything GIF like that you found this week.
Here at Advanced Muggle Studies, we slog through a steadily-increasing world of crap, clinging to our devotion to a fictional series that makes us smile most days. And so we return.
Well, here we are at the end again, we’ve known for a year now that this show would be getting a fifth and final season so yeah, they aren’t winning anything tonight. Welcome to the Killjoys season 4 episode 10 “Sporemageddon” spoilerific reaction thread where you can share your thoughts on the show as it…
Bulshar is kind of lame as a villain, everytime he’s on screen the air just gets sucked out of the room. Welcome to the Wynonna Earp season 3 episode 10 “The Other Woman” spoilerific reaction thread, where you can share your thoughts on the show as it plays out or after it’s done.
An episode of Cowboy Bebop where many would say very little actually happens—no action sequences, murders, bounties, or scores settled—turns out to be one of the more crucial episodes of the series. The loop is finally closed between the past and the present with the former reasserting itself, making it clear that,…
In 2015, over 40 of the concept artists working on HBO’s Game of Thrones got together and decided to put on an exhibition, aimed at illustrating the wider world and history of George R. R. Martin’s universe.
Revenge of the Creature will be the Svengoolie movie this Saturday night on Me-TV. Allegedly. There were some issues last time this one came up.
For all its problems, 2018's The Predator actually has some ideas to chew on, ideas that are surprisingly against the grain. Badly put together action sequences nerfed by poor cgi aren’t improved by a completely forgettable performance from Boyd Holbrook. But the supporting cast, particularly Thomas Jane,…
An age ago, when they announced that Jodie Whittaker would be the new face of Doctor Who she promptly appeared on BBC1 in a medical drama called Trust Me. Written by David Sefton it focused on a wronged whistle-blowing Sheffield nurse, Whittaker, who steals a mate’s identity and gets a swanky new job in Edinburgh as a…
Which wouldn’t be that much of a breaking news anymore nowadays, except for the fact that 40 Eridani a, aka HD 2696, has been canonically confirmed (not on screen but in two books and by Gene himself) as the home system of a certain science officer.
All arguments between advocates for republics and enforcers of tyranny may be moot if all is controlled by capricious supernatural elements. The best part of Stuart Burge’s 1970 adaptation of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar is its sense of the dreamlike and the fantastic, the very palpable influence the stars really do…
If so, happy vacation and wildlife raving. If not maybe next year?
Hello and welcome to WednesdayBookClub, everyone! My name is Geesejuggler and I’m preemptively writing this one Monday because I have a crazy schedule this week and I’m totally going to forget to do it later. Let’s go!
Boy, Carol Danvers sure does fall down a lot, right?
