Cinema’s Greatest Villains: The 1970′s
19 May 2013 4:43 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Recent hot cinema topics such as the portrayal of the Mandarin character in Shane Black’s Iron Man 3 and speculations about what classic Star Trek villain Benedict Cumberbatch’s character in J.J Abrams’ Star Trek: Into Darkness was modeled after leading up to the film’s release, among others, underline the importance of great villains in genre cinema.
Creating a great cinematic villain is a difficult goal that makes for an incredibly rewarding and memorable viewer experience when it is achieved.
We’ll now take a look at the greatest film villains. Other writing on this subject tends to be a bit unfocused, as “greatest villain” articles tend to mix live-action human villains with animated characters and even animals. Many of these articles also lack a cohesive quality as they attempt to cover too much ground at once by spanning all of film history.
This article focuses on the 1970’s, »

Sci-fi tribes: from Trekkies to Browncoats
16 May 2013 8:18 AM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
After police were called to break up Star Wars and Doctor Who enthusiasts at the Norwich Sci-Fi and Film convention, it's best to know your fandoms to avoid similar intergalactic clashes
The fourth annual Norwich Sci-Fi and Film convention should have been a peaceful affair. A day where Star Wars fans could mingle with like-minded enthusiasts, meet the man who played Bossk and perhaps discuss the event's generous £1 all-day parking offer without any hint of trouble. But then the Doctor Who fans showed up, and all hell broke loose. Police were called to break up the warring sci-fi tribes after one of them reportedly shouted, "I'll knock your fucking head off" at a rival following a dispute about a Cyberman autograph. It was a mess.
There's only one way to stop a tragedy like this from happening again, and that's to understand the complexities and rabid passions of each of these tribes. »

Star Trek Month - Star Trek: Voyager (1995 - 2001)
14 May 2013 11:41 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
To celebrate the release of Star Trek Into Darkness, the Flickering Myth writing team look back at the classic sci-fi franchise. Next up for Star Trek Month is Ozzy Armstrong looking back at Star Trek: Voyager....
Star Trek: Voyager follows the Captain and crew of the USS Voyager as they track a renegade Maquis ship into The Badlands where, thanks to a highly advanced alien, they are flung over 70,000 light-years into the uncharted Delta Quadrant. Our crew soon realises that they must fight to survive the unexplored territory and somehow make their long journey home.
You’d be forgiven if the synopsis sounds a little familiar. This is because it’s very similar to other sci-fi behemoths such as Battlestar Galactica and Lost in Space. Despite the unoriginality of the initial premise, this is of course a Star Trek outing and as such has a very different tone and further- »

Star Trek Month - Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993 - 1999)
13 May 2013 9:52 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
To celebrate the release of Star Trek Into Darkness, the Flickering Myth writing team look back at the classic sci-fi franchise. Next up for Star Trek Month is Ozzy Armstrong looking back at Star Trek: Deep Space Nine....
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (or DS9) takes place on a space station on the borders of enemy territories, far from the headquarters of the Federation. A spin-off from Star Trek: The Next Generation, DS9 unusually began while its parent series was still on the air and there were many episodes and characters which crossed over between the two shows, most notably the characters of Miles O’Brien and Worf. The show was often praised for its well-developed characters and its complex plots as well as recurring themes such as war and the line between faith and fanaticism.
DS9 is different from previous Star Trek outings due to a thinly- veiled similarity »

Star Trek Month - Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987 - 1994)

To celebrate the release of Star Trek Into Darkness, the Flickering Myth writing team look back at the classic sci-fi franchise. Next up for Star Trek Month is J-p Wooding looking back at his favourite episodes from Star Trek: The Next Generation...
Knowing that they were sitting on a gold mine after the continued success of the Star Trek movies, Paramount decided that there should be another Star Trek series. As a result in 1987 Captain Jean-Luc Picard (played by Patrick Stewart) guided the starship Enterprise to new voyages that would “seek out new life-forms and new civilisations, and boldly go where no-one has gone before.” First Officer William T. Riker (played by Jonathan Frakes) headed up the supporting crew under Picard’s command and for the majority of the show Data (Brent Spiner), Troi (Marina Sirtis), Geordi Laforge (LeVar Burton), Worf (Michael Dorn) and Dr. Beverley Crusher (Gates McFadden »

Star Trek Month - Star Trek: Nemesis (2002)

To celebrate the release of Star Trek Into Darkness, the Flickering Myth writing team look back at the classic sci-fi franchise. Next up for Star Trek Month is Luke Owen looking back at the final movie for The Next Generation, Star Trek: Nemesis...
After the disappointment of the previous two Star Trek movies, the crew of The Next Generation needed something big to recapture the glory they found with the television series. Sadly, for the last movie of The Next Generation, Star Trek: Nemesis is kind of a bore.
That’s not to say it’s as boring as Star Trek: Insurrection or as face-palmingly embarrassing as Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, but Star Trek: Nemesis just doesn’t have any kind of spark to make it worthwhile watching – something all of The Next Generation movies have in common.
However, it’s not all doom and gloom. Unlike Star Trek: Insurrection, »

Six to watch: Star Trek episodes
9 May 2013 9:58 AM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
As the brash new Star Trek film hits cinema screens, we look back at six TV episodes that display far more intelligence and wit. With 725 episodes to choose from, which are your favourites?
Jj Abrams' Star Trek Into Darkness opens this week and it's a big, loud science fiction movie, cobbled together from the scripts of two Kirk-era movies, with action scenes rehashed from Abrams' last Trek outing. It's like someone shining a Star Trek-shaped torch in your face while you're trying to watch Die Hard – fine if you like that sort of thing, but missing much of the intelligence and wit that made Star Trek so enduring across six different spin-off shows, with 725 episodes in total. That's no mean feat in TV land. So, rather than start an intergalactic incident by listing the best ever episodes (a task that would cause a brain lockdown similar to what »

The Future of Star Trek: Six Plots For The Big Screen
9 May 2013 3:00 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
The second instalment of the J. J. Abrams reboot Star Trek: Into Darkness is upon us, trailing in its wake a plethora of theories about its villain (played by Benedict Cumberbatch). Is it Khan? Gary Mitchell? Or maybe Charlie Evans? In fact, the theories are so numerous, they’ve been harder to contain than a warp core breach. And it’s no surprise – with four live-action TV shows (as well as an animated series) – Gene Roddenbery’s Star Trek universe offers such rich pickings for small-to-big screen adaptations. From Star Trek: The Motion Picture’S tweaking of The Original Series (Tos) episode ‘The Changeling’, featuring an alien probe called Nomad, to the seminal Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan, which took bionic superman, Khan Noonien Singh, from ‘Space Seed’, and explored his fate some years after being dumped on Ceti Alpha V. So what other episodes might offer »

Mindy Newells’s Wish List

How many books and DVDs do you have on your Amazon wish list? How often do you remember to look at it? I always forget to check it, but I took a look at it today, and there are 100 items.
No, I am not soliciting here. My birthday isn’t for another six months, Chanukah and Christmas are too far off to think about, and I’m not your mother, so forget about Mother’s Day, which is this Sunday, btw – although there is Alix, whom I always alert to her mom’s new column. Big Hint, Alix!
I do have to delete some of the books and DVDs; I’ve ordered them without looking at my wish list because, well, I forget to check the damn thing, but there’s still a lot there. The oldest item was added on June 11, 2006; it’s Star Trek: The Next Generation – The Complete Third Season (DVD, »

‘Walking with Dinosaurs’ Trailer – A 3D Adventure in the Late Cretaceous
1 May 2013 9:25 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
Video: Walking with Dinosaurs debut trailer
In 1999, the BBC aired a six-part TV mini-series titled Walking with Dinosaurs, with narration provided by actor/filmmaker Kenneth Branagh (Thor). That ground-breaking television program imitated the general format for nature documentaries, but used a combination of CGI and animatronics to recreate dinosaurs living during the Mesozoic.
The expensive project turned out a success, as it soon racked up multiple awards -that includes three Emmys, with one for its technical achievements – and a year later, it aired on the Discovery Channel, with Avery Brooks (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) as the replacement narrator, taking over for Branagh. Many a parent has since introduced their children to the marvelous world of ancient world creatures by showing them either the U.S. and/or the original version of the min-series ...

Defiance Anticipates A Second Season On SyFy
30 April 2013 10:01 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »
Action and intrigue are promised every time you tune in to SyFy’s Defiance. We hope you’re enjoying Rockne S. O’Bannon’s series, which he executive produces with Kevin Murphy
and Michael Taylor because we hear a second season is very likely.
“New Earth. New Rules.” That’s the tagline for this fresh series. Will you join the fight? Here’s the set up. The year is 2046, just thirty years after a whole slew of different alien races arrived on Earth. The landscape of the planet we once knew has completely changed, thanks to terraforming efforts.
This takes us to the town of Defiance, sitting where St. Louis used to be. Enter Nolan, acted by Grant Bowler, and his associate, Irisa, acted by Stephanie Leonidas. They settle in Defiance and meet the residents, Julie Benze acting as the mayor, Amanda Rosewater , the powerful Rafe McCawley. acted by Graham Greene, »

‘Defiance’ Executive Producer Michael Taylor Exits
29 April 2013 12:47 PM, PDT | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »
With Ok ratings and a big financial commitment by Syfy, the network’s new video game-tied drama Defiance is likely to get a second season. But if/when it does, it will be without executive producer Michael Taylor. Taylor was one of three writing executive producers on the first season, which has been completed, along with showrunner Kevin Murphy and Rockne O’Bannon. He won’t be returning for Season 2. Taylor is a sci-fi veteran who worked on Star Trek: Voyager and Deep Space Nine. He has a long history with Syfy, having served as co-executive producer on hit Battlestar Galactica and spinoff Caprica. »

Michael Taylor Departs 'Defiance'
29 April 2013 9:54 AM, PDT | AirlockAlpha.com | See recent Airlock Alpha news »
If Syfy brings back "Defiance" for a second season (and judging by the initial numbers, that's looking more and more likely every day), it will have to happen without Michael Taylor. Taylor, who helped develop the series with Rockne S. O'Bannon, is leaving the show, according to Deadline.com. Details on his departure were not released. Fans are quite familiar with Taylor's work, which includes "Battlestar Galactica" and its spinoff, "Caprica." He also was a producer and writer for "The Dead Zone" not long after he wrapped up work on both "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" and "Star Trek: Voyager." Taylor was twice nominated for a Hugo, first for the DS9 episode "The Visitor," and later for the "Battlestar Galactica" telemovie "Razor." He wrote six episodes of "Battlestar Galactica," including »
Doctor Who: The 50th Anniversary Rumor mill
22 April 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »
In a absence of fact, rumor and Clever Theories rush in to fill the vacuum. And considering the security surrounding The 50th anniversary Doctor Who adventure, and the ravenous hunger of the public for details, there’s no doubt the media is falling over itself to deliver any snippet it can, real or imagined. So far the actual facts are few and far between. It will be broadcast in 3-D Whether or not there will be any cinematic presentations in that format is unkown, but wouldn’t be a bad idea. We know of only one other Doctor who will appear – namely David Tennant, with Billie Piper returning as Rose Tyler. No news on from what point of his history this even will take place, however, though based on their costuming, it’s a fair bet Tennant is playing the proper Doctor and not “Doctor Two”, the one from Pete’s world. »

Meg Foster Discusses Leading The Lords of Salem
20 April 2013 10:57 PM, PDT | Cinelinx | See recent Cinelinx news »
Looking at actor Meg Foster’s resume brought on a feeling of disbelief for me. I know her as a sci-fi and horror genre icon. Most people in my circle know her from such films as They Live, Masters of the Universe, Stepfather II, and Oblivion as well as TV shows like Xena: Warrior Princess, Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and Sliders.
Her roster of work stretches way further than that, beginning in 1969. She’s starred in legendary shows and movies like Bonanza, Hawaii Five-o, Cagney & Lacey, Murder, She Wrote, and several others.
Ms. Foster adds another notch in her horror belt with Rob Zombie’s new film The Lords of Salem. She portrays Margaret Morgan, the head of a coven of witches who are burned at the stake because of their heresy. She curses the women of the town of Salem, Massachusetts and swears to »

Star Trek: 10 Biggest Wasted Opportunities
17 April 2013 12:31 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
When people in positions of power either miss or (even worse) intentionally pass on an opportunity that is glaringly obvious, it’s at the very least annoying or at the worst, an unforgivable crime. The two state solution to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, WWE handling of the WCW invasion angle and a UK version of Cheaters starring Jeremy Kyle are a few examples of missed opportunities that may never come around again. But while examples like that might generate a modicum of discontent, nothing sets the internet ablaze more than a studio or producer lacking forethought when it comes to the way they handle a beloved TV and movie franchise.
Star Trek got many things right, the death of Spock, making sure the original crew received a proper send off in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and almost all of Deep Space Nine; however, even it had its fair share of missed chances. »
