Michael Straczynski (Babylon 5, Jeremiah) with the Wachowskis (The Matrix trilogy) for a sci-fi series called Sense8. It’ll be a part 10 series described as “a gripping global tale of minds linked and souls […]
Clone Rebellion: Republic review
I picked up Clone Rebellion: Republic and instantly thought “Star Wars. The Clone Wars”. How could I not? This is a military sci-fi thriller in which a repressive Republic rule the known universe through an army of cloned marines. That’s when the comparisons stop. Steven L.

Riddick trailer
I loved Pitch Black. The fact that I watched it in a large, historic film house in the darkness all by myself helped. I didn’t think The Chronicles of Riddick was as good but consider it to be underrated. Vin Diesel has been Facebook teasing pictures from the new film for a while now, and […]
