Howard the Duck Review – A Movie Quacktacular! Ridiculously unbelievable? Yes, of course. Entertaining though! Many people have ridiculed me for actually liking this movie for years. To them I say, Quack Off! It is an entertaining and at times funny movie. It is about a duck from another planet where evolution started with an [...]

Steven Spielberg’s love of gaming may soon be felt on the big screen in a big big way. The Hollywood heavyhitter is said to have his sights set on bringing the popular Halo to life. Now, unlike Spielberg, I’m sure as hell no ‘gamer’. Movie nerd yes. So, while I have never played the game, [...]

I AM not one who has jumped on the whole Twilight bandwagon. In fact, I won’t be upset if I go through the rest of my life without ever seeing the film I’m led to believe is about horny teenage vampires.

Hollywood is continuing its unrelenting push for everything old to become new again – even those not so old. Â While remakes have been around since the start of last century when A Wringing Good Joke (1899) got such treatment the following year, they have been coming thicker and faster with each passing decade.

In Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character describes itself as being a cybernetic organism. We know his type better as simply ‘cyborgs’. The Oxford Dictionary describes a cyborg as ”a person whose physical tolerances or capabilities are extended beyond normal human limitations by a machine or other external agency that modifies the body’s [...]

I’ve never been much of a Star Trek fan. Always been in the Star Wars camp when it came to picking sci-fi sides. You could say I know more about tractor beams than transporter beams. But, having just watched the new Star Trek film, I’m thinking about swapping teams. Trading in my light sabre for [...]

You may have recently read that hot shot director Robert Rodriguez (Sin City) is planning to reboot the stand-alone Predator series, in a big way. While he may only be producing the project, he will be very hands-on, helping to bring a movie many of us have waiting many a year for to life, Predators. [...]

Twenty years after the Predator last graced the big screen – without any other well-known Alien being – it is to make a comeback, and in numbers. Reports regarding the development of Predators have been coming out of Hollywood thick and fast in the past couple of weeks. It has been confirmed the film will [...]

What happened with ‘lovin’ angels instead’ Robbie? Most would know now about British pop singer Robbie Williams’ UFO fetish. As a bit of a nut when it comes to things from outer space myself, I commend him for being so public about his new love affair. Apparently his obsession led to the break-up of his [...]

Not sure about it being The Day The Earth Stood Still. It may have been still but it was more due to the fact it was put to sleep. While it was getting late in the evening, I found myself dozing off towards the end of watching this extremely lacklustre remake of the 1951 classic [...]

However Keanu Reeves is remembered for his performance as interstellar messenger Klaatu in the remake of The Day The Earth Stood Still (just released on DVD), the character itself will remain one of the greatest extra-terrestrial visitors in film. He was played by Michael Rennie in the original 1951 version of TDTEST, which, surrounded by [...]

ROBOTS have been appearing in cinema almost since the birth of cinema itself. You can go right back to 1926 when what is widely regarded as the first, and for some time, the most well-known robot appeared on the big screen via Fritz Lang’s sci-fi classic Metropolis. Even if you haven’t seen the legendary silent-era [...]

I absolutely love a good sci-fi film, more realistic and intelligent the better. Think Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), Contact (1996) and of course 2001: A Space Odyssey (1969), my favorite film of all-time, from any genre, and where I got the name for this blog. But they certainly don’t have to involve [...]
Crowe adds weight to Robin Hood movie

I really enjoyed Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves when it was released in 1991. It was chock full of that swash-buckling action and adventure you would expect from a movie about the legendary hero, but also featured enough new elements to keep things fresh and interesting. However, there was just something not quite right about [...]
