  • Ponderings For 2007-07-27

    Not a good week for the spaceflight community. Following hot on the heals of the news that somebody sabotaged an ISS computer module is the truly tragic news of a fatal accident at Burt Rutan’s Scaled Composites location, killing 3. And just to add insult …

  • The Simpsons Movie (9/10)

    The big question on everyone’s mind was, “can they transfer the essence of The Simpsons from the TV screen to the theater screen?” The answer is a resounding yes. The amusing thing about it is that they kept it very true to the series, in …

  • 2007 Pilot Season Preview Part 1

    OK, here’s that surprise review I was talking about in my previous Ponderings post. It’s time to start checking out the leaked copies of the new fall season TV series pilots. As always, many of these are original pilot cuts where cast members and scenes …

  • Sunshine (8/10)

    After waiting not-so-patiently for this film to FINALLY open in the states, I was psyched to get to finally see it. I’m a sci-fi nerd, and proud of it. I knew this movie was designed to contain more of the science side of that name …

    A preview for this fall’s new Battlestar event, “Razor,” was run during the season premier of Eureka. The return of Admiral Cain (well, sort of a “return”). Yippie! Kudos to Jon Lovitz, for finally taking the step nobody else seemed to want to take and …

    I’ve been slowly playing catch up on many various episodes of The Colbert Report I’ve missed over the last year or so. For fun, I tossed together some of my favorites of his intro lines for the show (leaving off the “This is The Colbert …

  • Joshua (8/10)

    One of the more distinctive independent films of the year (featured at Sundance and ultimately distributed by Fox Searchlight), Joshua is the story of a disturbing young boy. It’s not hard to immediately jump to comparisons with The Omen, but the comparisons would be nothing …
