Strider's Sci-Fi

I am really looking forward to the new Marvel TV series Agent of SHIELD, and this trailer just kind of helps that along. ABC signed up to carry the series this fall, adding it to the Tuesday night lineup. And Joss is doing it! TV needs more Joss!

These are just amazingly detailed works from Jason B. Thompson, an American Manga artist (yes, there is a difference between Manga, Graphics Novels, and Comics) who has put together a few tasty interpretations of some classic H.P. Lovecraft stories. The White Ship was the first one I looked at, and I knew instantly I would [...]

There are a few tasty movies this time, starting with Cloud Atlas, a very complex book turned into a very ambitious movie. I missed this one in the theaters because of real life getting in the way, I am looking forward to finally seeing it. There is also Frankie Go Boom, not a genre flick [...]

At long last, it is finally time for Iron Man 3! Rumor is the teaser at the end of the credits this time will be for Avengers 2, another film that can’t come along soon enough to suit me as well. And a link to the official Iron Man 3 for those who don’t use [...]

R.I.P.D, the Rest In Peace Department, looks like it’s going to be the funniest action/adventure movie about lawmen in the afterlife ever made. Based on the Dark Horse graphic novel of the same name, I linked to them since I wasn’t able to find its stand alone home page quite yet. This should be hitting [...]

OK, it is really more of a Man of Steel trailer, but General Zod is the only on in it. so it seemed like an appropriate title. It will be coming out on June 14th around North America, if you live elsewhere check the release dates listed on the site.

Nozomi Entertainment has a channel full of their own Anime for you to stream and enjoy, as does Right Stuff (even though the latter is all silly). This is yet another streaming source that gives you entire episodes of anime programs, although in this case they save the cost of installing, configuring, and running their [...]

Daisuki launches this month, a coalition of 6 Anime houses in Japan trying another way of making their product available around the world. Some of the shows they own are not available through existing streaming services, but many of them are, scattered across multiple providers. Part of the logic of launching this new service is [...]

The Host is a story of alien invasion, body snatchers who push out the human spirit, but some humans fight back hard. Based on the book by Stephenie Meyer, we get no sparkling vampires this time, so I think it might be worth taking a look at. Also out, GI Joe: Retaliation claims it is [...]

One of the least politically correct superhero comedies ever made, Misfits has been signed up for season 5 according to Digital Spy. Apparently they are also considering doing a movie, and if that happens we may get the return of a few of the earlier cast members as well. So far only the first two [...]
