Anime heroes tend to come and go. Sure, the likes of Bleach, Dragonball Z or even Pokemon have been around for years – but compare that to Batman or Superman. Compare those to the likes of the Phantom or the Shadow. I’m no expert but my gut feeling is that Gundam is one of the […]

Firefly as Star Trek

August 6, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Here’s one that comes to us via the blog once known as SciFi Wire and now rebranded as Blastr. What we have here is an example of the fine art of photoshop. It’s the Firefly crew as the Star Trek crew. Which Star Trek crew? Not so sure.

July 30, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

The SyFy crew treated Comic Con to a sexy new Caprica 1.5 trailer. I know. I wasn’t there either. No fair. It looks impressive. We hear the word “cylon”… heck; the whole thing is clearly pulling together in the way we knew it would but couldn’t imagine how. Well worth a watch or you could […]
