Ion Sci-Fi keeps an eye on sci-fi entertainment and anything related, with news, views and reviews every week
This morning we discovered a new sci-fi anime series called Make My Day coming to Netflix next month which had slipped beneath our radar. How did we miss it?
It seems like Netflix revealed it during their Geeked Week event in 2021 - before our blog's time - and then quietly published the trailer to the Netflix site, skipping YouTube and social media.
We see a trailer for a new Apple TV+ series with a man dressed in 50s era clothes standing in a 50s era room. Does not immediately strike us as sci-fi but its title Hello Tomorrow! tickles our sci-fi gland.
Worth a quick look. Doesn't take long for us to see a man jetpacking off into the sky and a dog being walked by a hovering robot. Bingo! Good work sci-fi gland.
Disney have dropped the season 3 trailer for The Mandalorian.
One scene made us chuckle, as a character we vaguely recognise from an earlier season bids, "May the Force be with you."
Critical acclaim for HBO's (available in Australia on Binge) series adaptation of fungal zombies post-apocalyptic action adventure game The Last of Us is near universal.
It currently sports a 99% critics and 96% viewer score on Rotten Tomatoes - from 114 and 3157 ratings.
Following the announcement of their US cinematic release, Chinese sci-fi epic The Wandering Earth 2 has announced an Australian and New Zealand release on January 22.
Netflix have revealed their 2023 slate of Korean film and series among which are three sci-fi titles.
JUNG_E, Black Knight and Goodbye Earth.
NASA's James Webb infrared space telescope has confirmed its first exoplanet, i.e. a planet outside of our solar system.
LHS 475 b is an Earth sized terrestrial planet, several hundred degrees hotter than Earth orbiting closer to its star than any planet in our system.
Occasionally in our eternal search for new sci-fi trailers we come across soon to release titles which had previously largely escaped our notice.
Such is the case today with Warhammer 40K: Warpforge - an upcoming free to play turn based card battler.
