Grant Naylor Working On Red Dwarf XI Scripts


It's looking like Red Dwarf XI might be one step closer to being reality.  Digital Spy is reporting that Grant Naylor is already working on scripts for the next series of Red Dwarf. They were talking with Danny John-Jules who let it out that the scripts were being worked on to avoid time constraints that Naylor faced while writing Red Dwarf X.  Here are his quotes.


"I spoke to Doug the other day, and I know he's already writing outlines," John-Jules said. "Even though the contracts aren't signed, he knows because of the last series [that he needs a head start], because he was under real pressure."
"Directing, writing, producing, and then locations get moved out, actors drop out, and suddenly it's like, 'Well, we've got ten pages that can be filmed and I've got to rewrite four scripts'.
"He doesn't want to be caught like that again, so he's already writing outlines. Well, or scripts - Doug doesn't really do outlines, he just writes a whole script, and then diddles with it."

David Tennant On Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary


Were going to get a ton of these from now until there is an official BBC announcement on the casting or details about the 50th anniversary for Doctor Who.  So until we do it take it with a grain of salt.  But I do like the answer David Tennant gave about the 50th when asked in an interview by Moviejuice. Take it for what it is and speculate all you want.  Enjoy the quote.

I’ve nothing to tell you. But, if I did I wouldn’t tell you it, so, you know, deal with that.

Source: David Tennant returning for Dr. Who's 50th anniversary

Coming soon to a blue box near you?
The headline says its all. According to Bleeding Cool, David Tennant is returning to Dr. Who for the 50th anniversary celebration in 2013. A source told the site:
Yes. David Tennant will be back in time for the Doctor Who anniversary. Be prepared to be surprised…
We hope they're right. And, if they are, maybe they are right about another rumor - John Simm returning to play The Master.

Christopher Eccleston On Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary

Den of Geek, Blogtor Who and Red Carpet News have a video of Christopher Eccleston where he talks about the 50th anniversary.  You might be surprised by the answer but you can formulate your own opinion.


Synopsis For The Last Two Merlin Episodes



The BBC has released the synopsis, but not the titles, for the last two Merlin episodes that will be aired during the Christmas season.  These two stories will air on Saturday December 22nd and 29th and will mark the end of Merlin's 5 year story.


Episode 5.12 High in the mountains, a great horde gathers; Morgana prepares for war with a vengeful Mordred at her side. Merlin feels the weight of his destiny like never before as the ancient prophecies play out with terrifying accuracy. But before he can save his beloved Camelot, he must save himself. For it is not just the kingdom Morgana wishes to destroy – it is also Emrys.
Episode 5.13 And so it seems the Prophets did not lie. As the great battle rages on Camlann's mighty plain, Merlin faces his moment of destiny. Can he find the strength to save the man he made a King; the Camelot they fought to build; and the brotherhood they shared?

Doctor Who's Jenna Louis Coleman On Being The New Companion


There is an interview up on EW.Com of  New Doctor Who Companion Jenna-Louise Coleman and coincidentally its her first American interview.  In the interview she talks about keeping her appearance in Asylum of the Daleks a secret and the Oswin/Clara conundrum. Here is a snippet.


So, you played an ultimately deceased Dalek on that show and now you are about to debut (again!) on the special Christmas show as the Doctor’s assistant. All of which obviously raises about a thousand questions. Is this a subject that is going to be addressed in the Christmas episode?
Uh… mmm… no. We’re going to have what has been referred to as a “soft mystery.” For me, filming, I’ve been totally oblivious to Oswin and the “Asylum of the Daleks.” I really have had to erase it from my memory. Yeah, Christmas is it’s own episode.

Director Bryan Singer announced yesterday on Twitter that Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan will be reprising their X-Men roles of Professor Xavier and Magneto. The next movie is a based on the 1981 comic story Days of Futures Past which have scenes that takes place in the future and this casting makes sense based on that storyline.

Syfy To Develop Waterworld Series???



Why would Syfy and NBC do a Water World movie game and a  TV series?  The reason why is when Syfy showed Waterworld on thier channel it got a 400,000 viewership. I thought it was a horrible film. It was a Mad Max rip off but on the water. Go to screenrant.com to read the full article.

Celebrating 49 years of Doctor Who - The Cosmic Hobo by @cheezypeas

This article is probably one of the most difficult ones to write. A show I adore with a rich and varied history is 49 years old and where do I start? How do I do such a wonderful show enough justice and pay enough respect to it? Do I talk about the first story I ever saw; The Green Death? Do I discuss the Seventh Doctors era I predominantly remember whilst growing up? Then I re-watched my favourite story The Mind Robber and I found my answer.


As a child I recall seeing a picture of the Second Doctor grimacing in a newspaper or magazine and I was actually a little frightened! Over time I have developed a deeper appreciation for earlier stories and in particular, the Second Doctor and his era.

Celebrating 49 Years of Doctor Who - What Got Me Hooked On Doctor Who by @The_Knights87



artist unknown

Here we are.  It is the 49th anniversary to our favorite show.  We are now about a month away from the start of the 50th anniversary year.  There are lots of speculation and lots of anticipation for what is to come in the next year.  But the 49th is something special also.  The show, in one form or another, has persevered for 49 glorious years.  We’ve had original novels and audios to tie us over during the wilderness era.  You remember that time when Doctor Who was off the air and all we had was the video tape releases to watch with no new Who in sight for many years to come. It was a dark time but now that is over and unlike the 30th and 40th anniversary we are on the verge of celebrating the 50th with a televised special with current Doctor Matt Smith.

The David Tennant Years - I Don't Want To Go
By Paul Bowler

David Tennant is perhaps one of the few people who seem to have truly been born to play the role of The Doctor. The Scot actor and self-confessed Dr Who fan really did get to live the dream of travelling in time and space, and after studying at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama, Tennant’s early television career included roles in Rab C Nesbit and Taking over the Asylum to name but a few. By the time Christopher Eccelston had decided he was not returning for a second season, Russell T Davies had already chosen David Tennant to be his successor.  David Tennant was already closely associated with Big Finish Audio Plays, having appeared in Colditz (2001), Sympathy for the Devil and Exile (2002), as well as roles in Dalek Empire III and Medicinal Purposes in 2004 and even the online animated story Scream of the Shalka (2003). By the time Tennant was offered the role of the Doctor while filming the BBC’s three part drama about the life of Casanova, you could say that his appointment with destiny had been sealed, and after only a few days consideration, David Tennant embraced the roll of our favourite Time Lord and effectively made it his own.

Happy 49th Anniversary Doctor Who


Happy 49th Anniversary Doctor Who and the countdown is on to the big 50th Anniversary Year.  On this date 49 years ago the very first episode of Doctor Who was shown "An Unearthly Child" and a worldwide phenomenon was started.

Life On Mars? Scientist Aren't Saying ...Yet




"Earthshaking."

It seems like an odd choice of words to describe something discovered by Curiosity on Mars. But that's exactly what John Grotzinger, principal investigator for the Mars Science Laboratory, said about a recent soil sample test, according to an article by Nancy Atkinson at Universe Today. Grotzinger, in an NPR Today interview, was quoted as saying:


"This data is gonna be one for the history books," he said. "It's looking really good."
 The obvious question is "what?" Or, to be more precise, "WHAT?"

For now, the scientists are not saying. They are, after all, scientists who want to be absolutely certain about their discovery before announcing it to the world. That could be weeks away.

Said Joe Palca of NPR:
"They have some exciting new results from one of the rover's instruments. On the one hand, they'd like to tell everybody what they found, but on the other, they have to wait because they want to make sure their results are not just some fluke or error in their instrument."
In the meantime, it's anyone's guess - signs of life? Little green men, maybe?

Fringe Lives on the Science Channel

The Science Channel has just become better with its syndicated airing of all 5 seasons of Fringe.  The debut of the series started on November 20, 2012 (today), and will air episodes on Tuesday as well as some marathons on November 23 & 24.  In addition to the series, special segments will cover the real life science of Fringe.

It is ironic, but with Firefly also airing on the channel, it makes the Science Channel more like the Sci-Fi Channel than SyFy itself!!

This is a great opportunity to catch one of the better Sci-Fi series in the past few years.

Red Dwarf X Series roundup

Hands up who else is missing Red Dwarf already?


Considering some shows reprisals have been disastrous, the brave step taken to relaunch this much loved series was a gamble that's paid off. Having Doug Naylor at the helm has helped keep the shows originality and distinct style, without its characters and story lines becoming stale.

The X-Files - Blu Ray??

The Digital Bits is reporting a rumor that Fox may be looking to release The X-Files on Blu-ray.  Since the show never aired in high definition and the special effects were made in standard definition, the release would mirror what Star Trek The Next Generation is doing with remastered effects.  The X-Files was shot on film and so an conversion to HD is possible but the effects were made in a standard definition and would have to be remade similar to Star Trek, the Next Generation.  It is uncertain whether the effects elements exist in HD or that they would just have to be done over again.

We could see the first release as early as 2013.

Review of the Interactive Graphic Novel "Anomaly"



Are you looking for something a little bit different than the normal super hero fanfare from Marvel and DC.  Do you want a graphic novel that you can interact with an iPhone or iPad.  Well if you are then Anomaly is just the graphic novel you have been waiting for.

The story takes place in the year 2717 in what is heralded as The Third Golden Age of Man.  Disgraced elite Enforcer Corps member Jon is looking for a chance to redeem himself and to get out of doing work that they wouldn’t risk a robot to do.  Well he gets his chance in an exhibition to an unknown planet that is dubbed Anomaly.  The problem with Anomaly is that there is a virus that eats metal and makes electronics worthless.  But that isn’t all.  Anomaly has an evil force ruling and none of the tribes on the planet are strong enough to defeat the forces of the evil Erebos.  It’s a tall task and Jon needs to unite the tribes and lead a force that will free Anomaly from Erebos forces.  A task that will be very costly to those involved.

Boston SuperMegaFest 2012 An Odyssey Fulfilled

Argh Pirates have arrived at SuperMegaFest

This year’s SuperMegaFest was, for me, a long journey finally completed.  It all started way back in 1995 when I purchased a cast photo from series 2 of Babylon 5.  Now I believe I bought it at United Fancon to get Jeff Conway’s autograph, well, mainly because there were not any good single photos of him from Babylon 5.  Wasn’t a big Grease fan so was not interested in those and Babylon 5 had just started its second season and was just about to hit it’s big popularity era.

Dean Cain puts the 'super' into SuperMegaFest

Superman meets Hercules at SuperMegaFest.
Dean Cain does not like being reminded that it has been 19 years since the actor first donned the tights to play Superman in "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman."

But fans attending SuperMegaFest in Framingham, Mass., over the weekend have not forgotten.

Truth be told, the 46-year-old Cain does not mind, either. He was having a little fun with a fan who asked him about continuing to carry the legacy of the Man of Steel some 15 years after "Lois and Clark" ended its four-year run. The still-handsome Cain - ask any female in the audience at his question-and-answer session - shook his head in good-natured horror at the reminder.

Dean Cain has a way of making fans laugh with him and at him. Asked whether his Japanese ancestry ever posed a problem for him as an actor, he recounted how he laughed for 25 minutes after being cast as Superman when one fan wrote, "We wanted Superman, not Sushi-man."

But Cain is not all about laughs. Or even about entertainment. That's why his appearance has to be ranked among the best I have ever seen at any convention by an actor.

Neil Gaiman's Cybermen Story for Doctor Who

Writer Neil Gaiman has been talking about his upcoming Doctor Who episode featuring the Cybermen -


Photo Credit: http://healthytowers.tumblr.com/
"I can tell you that there are Cybermen in it. It will be a stand-alone episode, I don't know if it will be number twelve or thirteen. It will be the series' penultimate episode. But it has a beginning, a middle and an end... Steven [Moffat] wrote to me and asked if I wanted to make the Cybermen scary again. I thought back to myself at the age of six or seven, The Moonbase, Tomb of the Cybermen… I saw them when they were first broadcast. The Cybermen were much scarier than the Daleks, because they didn't make any noise. The Daleks moved around all over the place shouting "Exterminate", etc. With the Cybermen, it's different. You turn around and bam! There they are. It's scary. I told him that I was going to take the Cybermen from the sixties […] and see what I could do. I don't know if it's going to work, we'll see."

This is absolutely the best news I have heard from Doctor Who in a while. Finally an episode I am looking forward to!!

The new Cybermen photo above was found on numerous websites including -

The Latest Star Wars 7-9 Rumor - Darth Vader Returns!

It appears that the UK tabloid, "The Express", is stating that Disney is looking to bring back Darth Vader for the next series of movies and that he is an "integral part of the franchise."

It is probably a made up rumor and we will hear a million more before the next movie comes out but what if it is true?

I can see several possibilities.  One is that Darth Vader is back, resurrected somehow.  This is very bad as it would cheapen the Episodes 1-6.  Vader no longer exists and even if he had survived, Anakin returned to the good side of the Force.  So could Vader time travel?  Or is his return in the form of an evil ghost like figure haunting Luke?  Imagine a spirit world of deceased Jedi continually interacting with the living.

Another more realistic method would be someone else dons Darth Vader's costume and calls himself Darth Vader.  This other evil Jedi becomes Darth Vader II of sorts and becomes a new villain for the Jedi in the next batch of movies.  This seems to be the least objectionable way for him to return.  Luke knows it is not really Darth Vader but perhaps rumors of Vader still being alive are supported by someone else taking the part.  That way we see the return of Vader in a similar fashion than the many superheroes and villains who's identity is taken up by someone new. (Batman, Robin, Green Lantern, Green Goblin, etc)

I don't have a problem with Vader returning as long as it is done imaginatively and not ruining the previous movies.  Still, moving on and dealing with new villains would be preferred.

By the way, there is no reason why Boba Fett could not return to the franchise in a similar fashion.  That would be another popular character that could redeem his short appearances in the previous movies.
