Improving Halo
Posted By:

We rarely comment on individual reviews but when we saw the Washington Post publish one with a title that Halo's latest episode finally delivers on the show's promise, that struck a chord.

Early reviews for the series were mixed and our impression of the first two episodes was that the show is watchable but not stellar.

Star Trek Booties
Posted By:

Earlier this year Star Wars unveiled The Chandrila Collection, or in layman's terms, the merchandise attached to their exorbitantly priced Galactic Starcruiser hotel.

Star Trek being a military organisation with most cast in uniform most of the time, there's less scope to compete on the fashion front but they've come in at the ground level with some fabulously expensive $400 (US) boots.

Jurassic Trailer 2
Posted By:

While sadly some of the reveals at this year's Cinemacon were exclusive to attendees, one which has been shared with the world is the new Jurassic World Dominion trailer.

What's to be said other than it's action and dinosaur packed?

Cinemacon Goodies

Back in March it was rumoured that the Avatar 2 trailer would premiere with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in cinemas.

We felt that the specifics of the rumour might be sinister but also that it was a reasonable prediction.

Apologies for the vanishing content and pause in posting.

Something untoward occurred on our web server and we rolled back. Like time travel but much less fun.

Night Sky Trailer
Posted By:

This trailer made us smile. The idea of a couple (J.K. Simmons and Sissy Spacek) finding a chamber buried in their yard which contains a portal to another planet is unqestionably sci-fi but not intrinsically remarkable.

Then they keep the secret just between them. Regularly visiting to enjoy the scenery from the room on the other end.

TTT's Wife Trailer
Posted By:

HBO have released the trailer for their upcoming series The Time Traveler's Wife.

There's considerably more action (i.e. violence) in the trailer than we would have guessed based on earlier impressions but that surrounds the time traveler (Theo James).
