Netflix's anime series Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 is widely regarded as trash and we concur.

Scrolling through the platform yesterday we stumbled across an attempted recovery in the form of a film adaptation of the first season.

Amazon have released a very short teaser for their upcoming Paper Girls series.

Which only scratches the surface of what we've suggested could be one of the more thought-provoking sci-fi series on the way to our screens.

A See season three teaser has dropped with a small barb in it - cancellation. Included with a recap is the following on screen text:

On August 26 the final chapter begins

As Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Westworld seemingly flounders, we hear casting news for one of their two upcoming Amazon sci-fi series, Fallout.

Kyle MacLachlan who played Paul Atreides in the 1984 Dune film and Quake / Daisy's insane father in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has joined Fallout's cast in an unspecified role.

Several publications are running stories about Westworld's season 4 premiere viewership being down. Is it?

Yes. And sharply.

Courtesy of a Nintendo Direct showcase we now have another trailer for the upcoming open world translation of a class platformer, Sonic Frontiers.

It shows a bit more of the island, combat and a new area called cyberspace.

Warner Bros. have released their official Robin trailer for upcoming action roleplaying game Gotham Knights.

While we think the game looks good, this character maybe not so much. Or at least not to our tastes.

During the virtual LEGO Con 2022 which was streamed the weekend before last, the first ever Avatar LEGO set was unveiled with an impressive $250 (Oz) price tag.

There'll also be a live event in Sydney on July 9-10 at which you might be able to see this set. And other blocky things.

Sony have released a trailer for vampire film The Invitation (formerly The Bride) starring Game of Thrones' Nathalie Emmanuel (Missandei).

It's present day supernatural horror rather than sci-fi but looks to be something at least a little bit fresh in the well populated and rarely original vampire genre.

A new mostly cinematic trailer has dropped for free-to-play mobile massively online roleplaying game / shooter Avatar: Reckoning.

Just announced at the beginning of this year and expected to release before its end, it is now slated for 2023.
