It’s been a while since we had any updates about casting but this popped up today and I thought it was worth a post. I held off on the additional Sardaukar cast announcements that were made but I’ll give those people a shout out at the end. So, the iMDB listing for next year’s Dune, […]
Read more "Casting Dune – Mapes and Hawat confirmed + more"It’s good to hear that Project Blue Book has been picked up for a second season. Looks like we’ll get to go deeper into a protracted arc for some of the characters. If this week’s episode was anything to go by, things will continue to pick up speed. Episode 7 – The Scoutmaster I was […]
Read more "Project Blue Book – Season 1: Episode 7 Review"OK, so this is different. One of my rare forays to the cinema; in fact the first time I’ve been since Infinity War. I had relatively low expectations. I knew that Shane Black, writer of the original Predator film (which would probably make it into my Top 30 films) was involved and that gave me […]

It has a 15 certificate and is well-deserving of that, if not […]
Read more "Movie Review – Life (2017)"Before we start, this isn’t a “best of” list or anything like that. It’s more a celebration of good quality examples of female characters who exist as more than window dressing or motivation for a male hero to do some rescuing. Basically, I love writing the characters of Tempe and Ashana in my book and […]
Read more "9 Great Female Characters in Science Fiction"Thought I’d dedicate this week’s Monday Music to the works of the great Harry Dean Stanton. There are so many films that I remember him from and I thought I would choose a few of my favourites and some music from each of them. First though, here’s the man himself in his recent turn as […]
