It isn’t James White, but it is funny and entertaining. Space Hospital has simple animations in a low budget format, but somehow I seem to keep watching them, so I thought I should post in case you liked them too.
Here is a movie I am seriously looking forward to. This franchise just keeps getting better with every film, and not just Iron Man; all the Avengers.
Too funny for words. Glad someone finally finally put these together the way they deserved to be. I always thought Art was a bit stiff and robotic anyways, now I know why.
This animated short film by Tomas Vergara brings you an enjoyable video that doesn’t use spoken words to tell its story. And you really don’t need them with this one; all you have to do is watch.
Without a doubt the movie that must not be missed this week is Cloud Atlas, an amazing story about the interconnectedness of all things, including first and foremost the human heart. I haven’t read the book yet, but it is on my to-be-read pile, and I will be starting it right after I see the movie.
There are several fun movies coming out this week, starting with Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, which was a nicely done interpretation of the graphic novel. If you are looking for something a bit more lighthearted, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World also will be on the shelves this Tuesday.
In TV, Lost Girl: The Complete First Season finally brings the story of this confused succubus trying to find her own way to live home for US fans. For those scratching their head thinking they paid a higher price but already own this and other seasons, it was initially released as an Import from Canada, and only now is being released officially in the US market. That is due to contractual obligations with Syfy, who are a few years behind on running the show for the American market. Sanctuary: The Complete Series is also a Canadian show you may already own, in this case because each of the individual seasons had been previously released. But this is its first release in a single box set. On the other hand, Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman: Season 3 is brand new, even if it is speculative science rather than speculative fiction.
For western animation, Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season Four continues that saga.

One such band of descendents of famous warriors gains two additional girls to the group and all hell brakes loose.
