SDCC 2011: Chuck – Adam Baldwin Interview

Five years ago, we decided to check out some kind of spy show on NBC because it was the latest venture of Firefly alum Adam Baldwin. Now Chuck has grown into a fine show on its own, and will return for a fifth and final season this fall on Friday nights. We got to check in with the cast at Comic-Con 2011, and managed to talk about the show with Baldwin, and find out which dinosaur he would be.

A few impressions from SDCC 2011

It has come and gone so fast – San Diego Comic Con 2011 –  and once again it was a blast!

Without further ado, here are some of my personal favorite moments:

Wednesday (Preview night) I had to geek out on anything Battlestar Galactica, of course..

Nice little ‘Viper’ model!

Thursday I attended the only panel that had anything to do with Battlestar Galactica, “So Say we all”, hosted by Richard Hatch. It also had Michael Taylor and Dr Kevin Grazier (BG science consultant) in attendance. A surprise guest was actress Lili Bordan from the upcoming ‘Blood and Chrome’ pilot.

TV Review: ThunderCats “The Sword of Omens” and “Ancient Spirits of Evil” (SERIES PREMIERE)

by Kroze Kresky, Media Editor

“Thunder… Thunder…. Thunder… THUNDERCATS HO!”

Back in the 80’s, that phrase was heard in living rooms all over the US and kids tuned in every week to watch the continuing adventures of a band of humanoid cats from space as they fought the evil of Mumm-Ra and searched out a new home for themsleves to win over the hearts of children everywhere! Fast forward 30 years later and it looks like the cycle is set to repeat itself once again as ThunderCats returns to TV in a huge way!

Blu-ray Review: Doctor Who Series 6, Part 1

 
by Kroze Kresky, Media Editor
 
BBC America has been hitting it big in the US as of late with such breakout hits as Being Human, Primeval, and Torchwood, but none of them have come close to the long lasting success that Doctor Who has received on this side of the pond. Since Matt Smith took over the titular role of The Doctor and Stephen Moffat was promoted to executive producer and head writer  last season, the show has not taken a single second to catch its breath, much like The Doctor himself: always running, diving head first into crazy adventures every week after week!

DVD Review: [REC] 2

by Karl Madsen, Media Editor, Horror

What are some of movie watchers biggest gripes? How about foreign movies with completely unknown actors? Most viewers are really irritated by subtitles, especially in an action movie. And of course there’s the questionable sequel to a flick that seems to have a plausible outcome at the conclusion of the first movie. Well [REC] 2 fits these descriptions, and breaks the mold as well.

Movie Review: Cowboys & Aliens

by Kroze Kresky, Media Editor

As a little kid playing with your action figures, I am sure you had such epic mystical bouts between two unlikely factions… Ninjas vs. the WWF (What is with this WWE bullshit nowadays?), Power Rangers vs. Gobots, Dinosaurs vs. your sister’s barbie dolls which you did totally not borrow to film a complete version of the plot to Dragon Warrior IV with and then had the VHS tape completely fuck up so it was all for naught… but one of the most famous combination that many kids growing up (including yours truly) was putting all your alien monsters against your cowboy figures riding around on horses. It seemed that Hollywood had tapped into their inner child recently for inspiration for their newest hot summer action blockbuster feature film, but they left the most important ingredient back buried in their toybox…

SDCC2011: Video Game News: Darksiders II


by Caleb Paullus, Media Editor Games

We were invited to a special little shindig during comic con to check out the latest update on Darksiders II. Let me just start off by saying…the mashed potatoes at the party were delicious. Also…HOLY SHIT.



So in the first game, you played as war, which was tons of fun destroying everything in your path. Now you play as Death. I know you may be thinking, WTF, why did you change the main character you idiots???? I thought that too at first, but after I realized that the Darksiders story line was so complex that it only made sense to have the next game through the eyes other another horseman.
