    Watching "Blake's 7" (No Spoilers Please)!

    S1E2 "Space Fall" - During the voyage to Cygnus Alpha we are introduced to the main characters of the show. Jenna Stannis is a good looking smuggler pilot, who obviously has enough dignity and self-respect to refuse the offer that one of the guards made her. Kerr Avon is a cynical technical...

    CG Planet of the Apes remake announced

    Another example of an unnecessary remake! What was wrong with the 2001 version!? "Beware of the beast film producer. He kills popular franchises for money." ;)

    Watching "Blake's 7" (No Spoilers Please)!

    I've heard nothing but good things about this show so I've decided to give it a try even though it's a little too old for my taste. I'm not going to post long reviews but just a few thoughts after each episode, because I'm not a native English speaker and their translation would take me...

    Pandora's Floating Mountains - Cool But Totally Unrealistic!

    I also liked seeing a planet with a toxic atmosphere for once in a high budget Sci-Fi movie (except for "Alien"). The only problem I have with the masks is that they are masks and not environmental suits. We know that the human skin also needs air otherwise its cells would start dying, so long...

    Happy International Star Wars Day!

    I didn't know that there was an official Star Wars day. I rewatched "Revenge Of The Sith" last night. Great movie. :techman:

    What about "Surf Ninjas" - a cult teenage classic! ;)

    Pandora's Floating Mountains - Cool But Totally Unrealistic!

    Thanks for explaining that. I'm not so good at physics, but it seems logical for the floating mountains to be in constant motion due to the magnetic field.

    A Niner Watches Babylon 5 (NO spoilers, please)

    The same applies for poor Joshua Cox (Lt. Corwin). He appeared in 35 episodes and most of the time he was credited as "Tech 1" or "Tech 2". :)

    A Niner Watches Babylon 5 (NO spoilers, please)

    I usually rewatch this episode just because of the B story.

    Pandora's Floating Mountains - Cool But Totally Unrealistic!

    So basically they say that those rocks float the same way as a MAGLEV train. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maglev_train But if that's the case shouldn't they be constantly moving, rotating or even crashing into each other due to the magnetic field? Any physicists in the forum?

    Pandora's Floating Mountains - Cool But Totally Unrealistic!

    After seeing "Avatar" many Sci-Fi fans including me thought that the concept of the floating mountains was interesting, but it had absolutely no scientific explanation in the movie. So how do those magic floating mountains really work? If they are kept in the air by some kind of a...

    A Niner Watches Babylon 5 (NO spoilers, please)

    "You've been a bad boy, Mr.Morden" :lol: Let's also make sure that we don't spoil anything about Marcus's famous threesome with Ivanova and Lyta!

    A Niner Watches Babylon 5 (NO spoilers, please)

    Oh no, he found that out! No more Wikipedia until the end of the show! ;)

    Fringe: "Brown Betty" 4/29/10 - Grading & Discussion

    They've tried to make an episode similar to SG-1's "200", but it simply wasn't funny. Why would the Sci-Fi fans want to watch an old style detective story/fairy tale? :wtf:

    scifi's best Director...

    Paul Verhoeven should be given a place among the Top 10 of this chart: "RoboCop", "Total Recall", "Starship Troopers" and "Hollow Man". Oh and let's not forget Robert Zemeckis - "Back To The Future" trilogy and "Contact".

    Films you can't stand...

    It would also have been convinient for the French people to have a working prison in Paris after the Revolution, but they chose to destroy it and build a new one! :p

    Films you can't stand...

    Exactly! :techman: V was certainly fighting for democracy, not anarchy and chaos. He destroyed the former parliament to sparkle the inevitable revolution against a brutal totalitarian regime. The building was not a parliament anymore and it didn't serve its original purpose. It had become a...

    Fringe: "Brown Betty" 4/29/10 - Grading & Discussion

    Walter :wtf: Tells :wtf: Fairy Tales :wtf: 43 minutes of my life I would like to forget!

    A Niner Watches Babylon 5 (NO spoilers, please)

    Perhaps the Triluminary was indeed set to respond to a specific soul, but as a man of science I would like to believe that it was in fact an advanced DNA scanner.
