The Prisoner 2009 mini-series on DVD next week
by Doc on Mar.15, 2010, under Video/DVD
A&E’s re-imagining of The Prisoner starring Jim Caviezel and Ian McKellen hits the streets on DVD next Tuesday, March 23rd. A much more visually striking film, it takes the concept in a new direction with different twists. It is of course a risk to remake and cult film, and fans of the original may have trouble with this interpretation if they try and fit it in within what they are familiar with, but taken on its own it provides an interesting psychological thriller framework – but fans of the original will easily recognize Rover…check out a deleted scene below as well!

Avatar to get extra scenes and a re-release?
by Doc on Mar.12, 2010, under Movies
Haven’t got enough of Pandora yet? It looks like you’ll be able to get a little more this summer – in the form of 10-12 extra minutes that might be added for a summer re-release of Avatar. James Cameron and Fox are reportedly discussing the possibility. This could be a big boost to Avatar as well, which has been evicted from most IMAX theaters to make room for Tim Burton’s Alice In Wonderland.
Massive multiplayer Galactica?
by Doc on Mar.11, 2010, under Games, Television
So it looks like there is a Battlestar Galactica massive-multiplayer game in development. There is little known about the studio supposedly doing it, but regardless,the track record on MMOs, or games in general, on SF titles that have left the TV already isn’t very high…I’m still waiting for Stargate Worlds, still listed as “Coming in 2009″…

New Tron Legacy trailer available
by Doc on Mar.09, 2010, under Movies
See below for the new Tron Legacy trailer, which gives some idea to the actual plot of the movie. Visually, it looks like the characters will be clearer instead of the black-and-white faces that looked like they were being projected, and of course the CGI has progressed from the wireframes and polygons to full shading and texture, but there is still a Recognizer…

by Doc on Mar.08, 2010, under Comics
DC Comics has announced that J. Michael Straczynski will take over as writer for both Superman (s\with issue #701) and Wonder Woman (issue #601).

Oscar roundup
by Doc on Mar.08, 2010, under Movies
I was going to post something early this morning on the Oscars, but had to give up when there were too may fires to fight…anyways, although the SF&F genres had a good chance to take some top prizes last night, The Hurt Locker ended up the big winner. Avatar did take prizes in Cinematography, Art Direction, and Visual Effects, while Star Trek did get Best Makeup. Avatar and James Cameron did get a lot of attention, however, including Ben Stiller as a snazzy dressed Na’vi.
