Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
So which is it sci fi - or fantasy?
I don't really like icky films - seeing as I'm a wimp and all :( |
Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
I think it is more fantasy than sci fi, I think it is a bit like pulp fiction, which I totally love

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
Did anyone used to watch a show called "Now And Again"?
It used to be on ITV1 late at night. It starred Dennis Haysbert (black president from 24) I missed the very beginning so I don't know the exact plot, but AFAIK it was something like this: A man died in an accident, and the US government managed to preserve his brain and implanted it into a bio-engineered body so he had vast amounts of strength and speed. The US government use him to catch hard to get criminals and such. Haysbert plays his handler. He still remembers his old life, so he is forced to have no contact with his widow and kid, and eventually, he convinces his handler to let him meet her and they get to know each other again. I know it sounds like a rip off of Robocop, but it really isn't. It had a bit of everything in it. Action, humour, drama, love. I wish they'd bring it out on DVD again. I loved watching that show. |

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
I love the old battlestar, but I cannot stand the new one as it is totally crap and full of sex, the old one was just retro and really cool!

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

I must admit I thought the new one was too slow. And not enough of the new cylons. I got the impression that they rushed through the series without having the effects finished off properly. And what the hell was with the end of the season? I've got the original series box set and must admit I enjoy watching that more than the new one. Although I'll no doubt give the new one another go when the new season starts. |
Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

Dire plots, corny dialogue, cute kids, a pantomime villain... :shrug: At least in the new one they've paid some attention to plotting and the characters seem like *real* people. I gave up on the old one but I'll stick with the new one. |

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
Does anyone remember an old TV comedy show called "Out Of This World", in the late eighties? It featured this teenage girl who had an alien father and he used to talk to her through this weird chrystal pyrimid in her bedroom. I haven't seen that since I was a sprog. I'd love to see it again.
I wish some of these shows were easier to get on DVD. |
Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
I remember that :)

I remember the song though, weirdly enough (well the first line anyway) "Would you like to swing to on a star..." I can't really remember the next two lines, but I think the forsth was "Or would you rather visit earth". Or something. |

Brimstine was another that I was peed off about as well. Earth Final Conflict suffered from stars leaving and and the storyline finally being so cr@p I couldn't watch the last series.In the end I couldn't bear the actress they had as the heroine in the final series.She was blonde and useless.All the male totty had gone as well. :( As for the ending of Angel. :grind: |

Did anyone catch the whoopsie one Star Trek Enterprise on Tuesday?
At the start of the commercial breaks, it ended with the Deep Space 9 logo rather than the Enterprise one. Either it's a disgusting c0ck-up that's an insult to Enterprise fans :-) or a hint of something to come. ? lol |

The 4400 is getting really interesting as well. |
Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
John Harrison, who wrote and directed The Sci Fi Channel's upcoming miniseries Frank Herbert's Dune, will adapt the second and third books, Dune Messiah and Children of Dune, for a sequel. Harrison indicated that the sequel may be ready for release sometime in 2002.
As for the upcoming miniseries, Harrison said that he hopes viewers will avoid comparisons with David Lynch's 1984 feature-film that turned into an expensive flop. "I didn't set out to correct or remake Lynch's movie," Harrison said. "It's impossible to do justice to the book in a two-hour [feature]. I had the advantage of six, and I just tried to create a faithful adaptation of Frank Herbert's book." The Sci Fi Channel's six-hour Dune miniseries is the most expensive programming produced for the network. Starring William Hurt and shot by Oscar winning cinematographer Vittorio Storaro (The Last Emperor), the six hour epic cost $20 million to make, and even more to promote through theatrical trailers, video billboards, and an Internet ad campaign that began early this year. The miniseries airs December 3-5 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. |

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
there is a new series of 'Hex' starting on Sky One on the 18th Sept, I quite enjoyed the first one.
The only problem is that it clashes with 'Lost' & 'Jonathan Creek'... |
Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets
'Jonathan Creek' is a repeat (and often repeated). As for 'Lost' - I find this boring, but am confused anyway, what channel are you watching it - on as I can't see it on a Sunday anywhere ?

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

'Lost' is on E4. 'Hex' also has a couple of 'incentives' to watch :naughty: - it is going to be a difficult choice. :) |
