Ion Sci-Fi keeps an eye on sci-fi entertainment and anything related, with news, views and reviews every week
Winners of little league Emmys - or Creative Arts Emmys - were announced over the weekend and sci-fi scored eight wins in animation.
Netflix beat long-time kings of animation Disney to pick up the first Best Animated Program win for a streaming show for Arcane.
After a recurrence of one of the two problems which saw the first Artemis I launch scrubbed - a hydrodgen leak on an umilical quick disconnect - the second was also scrubbed.
NASA made three attempts to fix the problem during launch but ultimately called it off and ruled out any further launch attempts in early September.
Lucasfilm have released a timeline teaser for Star Wars prequel series Andor.
That timeline isn't very confusing. Andor (series) then Rogue One (film) then Episode IV - A New Hope (film).
In order to beat Disney to the finish line, Netflix have moved up plans to introduce a new ad-supported tier from next year to this November.
Whether Australia will be included in that November rollout isn't known.
2K have released a new character trailer and also a generous 18 minutes of gameplay from their upcoming interactive narrative New Tales from the Borderlands.
We don't have time to watch their gameplay video but the Gamescom trailer was excellent and the kind of quality we had expected when this title was first announced in April.
In an interview with Interview (yes, that's right), Sigourney Weaver has dropped a cryptic and unexpected tease about her character in the upcoming Avatar: The Way of Water film.
I think if Jim Cameron didn’t know me really well, he wouldn’t have cast me as something as goofy as this.
We're going to step briefly but firmly outside of sci-fi to address Amazon's The Rings of Power, which we've done before in our show addressing anti-diversity sentiments as a general entertainment issue.
Amazon have temporarily suspended their rating system amidst concerns that it may be being review bombed but the reality of that is unclear.
In a just published Gamescom interview with game director Glen Schofield, Glen let slip an unexpected new detail about upcoming survival horror game The Callisto Protocol.
You'll have a follower.
With anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners debuting on Netflix this month, many would expect some kind of promotional tie-in with the action roleplaying video game Cyberpunk 2077.
Developers CD Projekt Red have teased as much with a short video advising fans to tune into their next Night City Wire on September 6 at 5 p.m. CEST (September 7 at 1 a.m. AEST).
NASA have scheduled their second launch attempt for the Artemis I rocket with a two hour launch window starting at 2:17 p.m. EDT on September 3, which locally will be 4:17 a.m. on September 4.
One for the early birds.
