Cool site: Top 75 Spaceships in movies and TV
by Doc on Jul.16, 2009, under Fun Stuff, Movies, Television
Just found out about this site: Top 75 Spaceships in movies and TV. Of course, with any such list, there will be debates about order and omissions – but there are ships on here that you may not have though of and belong. I don’t know about the number 1 position, but I always thought there was something very elegant about the Eagle from Space: 1999 deserving of #2.
Emmy nominations announced

The nominees for the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards are out, but it doesn’t look like there is much from the SF&F areas among the main awards (not really surprising). A quick glance shows Lost with a Best Drama nod, and Jim Parsons of Big Bang Theory getting a Best Actor In A Comedy nomination for his role as Sheldon, and Battlestar Galactica did get a Outstanding Directing For A Drama Series nod for the episode “Daybreak (Part 2)”
