I am as tickled as I can be. The media property that got me into SCI-FI was not Star Trek, nor was it Star Wars. No, my gateway to SF was none other than the Six Million Dollar Man. To this day when I hear series producer Harve Bennett’s narrative from the opening sequence – […]
I don’t know of a single movie watcher who doesn’t think that Christopher Nolan is a talented director. I, personally, think of Christopher Nolan as a more tech-savvy Michael Mann. I could imagine Nolan directing a film like Heat, were it to somehow involve some kind of sci-fi element. He’s one of my favorite modern […]
Last Thursday, the second season finale of the television show Fringe, “Over There, Part 2,” aired, a rare extended adventure into the alternate universe that Fringe has only briefly given us glimpses of until this point. Fringe is one of those rare shows where the mythology episodes seem to outshine the “monster of the week” […]
It’s a bit of a departure from our usual Funnybook fare this week. Season 1.0 0f Caprica having wrapped, Aron, Paul and Wayne share their thoughts on the show. They first establish what they thought of how the show’s predecessor, Battlestar Galactica, ended, chat a bit about the merits of BSG’s The Plan, and then […]

Anderson that I can say I didn’t enjoy (Soldier). But I loved the hell out of Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil, Death Race, and especially Event […]
John Carpenter’s The Thing has built a cult following since its release in 1982. The film is a horror classic, hitting all the right notes with its manipulation of paranoia, isolation, and the sense of the unknown. It’s natural that a studio would want to come along and steal some of that glory once again. […]
Aron returns from his journeys across the snow-ravaged lands of New England to rejoin Paul, Wayne, and Jonathan for another rousing discussion of the week in comics… Paul hates on fatties while we talk about Kevin Smith, encroaching, and Smodcast #106 and #107 Geoff Johns and Jim Lee get promotions over at DC Comics and […]
I’m not sure there’s more to say than that! See more funny videos and funny pictures at CollegeHumor.
Seriously, according to Yahoo! Movies, the following only cost $300 to make. I’m not entirely sure what $300 director Fede Alvarez was using to make this movie, but I’d sure like that $300.
