Battlestar: Blood and Chrome casting news!

I'll admit I never got into Caprica. The subject matter didn't appeal to me. As much as I love writer Jane Espenson (I want her career) I just couldn't motivate myself to watch it. Blood and Chrome however sounds right up my alley!

Casting news has emerged, they have cast Adama and his CO.



It's nobody I know or care about but I am excited to see this play out

Firefly Friday

Good News from TV land. Not only did fringe survive it's move to Friday nights, it won it's night AND it had a raised viewership!

By some miracle of magic or science, Fox’s Fringe moved to Friday night and did not go down in the ratings.

The episode — titled “The Firefly” (nicely ironic considering the show’s move to Fox’s infamous Death Slot) — actually improved upon its most recent Thursday performance.

Fringe, which featured Christopher Lloyd as a guest star, delivered 4.9 million viewers and a 1.9 preliminary adults 18-49 rating last night. That’s right in line with its Thursday season average. Remember, Fox’s Kevin Reilly said if the show maintains its Thursday numbers on Friday, he’d renew it, so let’s hope the drama can keep this up.

Fringe has to survive... or I will be utterly lost.

New Being Human Trailer

Wicked trailers like this just make me resent remakes even more. Why are they remaking this show in the Us when the original is still on the air. Apparently people I know who have auditioned for the show seem to indicate that everything will be pretty similar. *Sigh* My new life goal is to create some original content.

Mind you I still haven't finished series 2... I should get on that

Also can we talk about Cat Stevens being the sound track for this!?!? Random

New Years Resolutions

1. Loose some weight... (generic I know)
2. Get in and out of my Cannes vacation relativity debt free, or at least with manageable debt.
3. Get a real job, preferably one Cannes related or that does not get in the way of me going to Cannes.
4. Get some scripts written.
5. Complain less (at work and in my life)
6. Buy less new things, vintage is in.
7. Tease people less.
8. Take some French, business and painting classes

Christmas time!

To make the gift giving season easier for my friends and family. Complete with reference links and helpful photos.

The Lawless Internet takes another hit

A Swedish appellate court late today (Friday) upheld the convictions of three operators of the Pirate Bay website, Frederik Neij, Peter Sunde and Carl Lundström for what was called “contributory copyright infringement” and sentenced them to prison and ordered them to pay damages of more than $6.5 million. In its ruling, the court said, “The Pirate Bay has facilitated illegal file-sharing in a way that results in criminal liability for those who run the service.
For the three defendants the court of appeal believes it is proven that they participated in these activities in different ways and to varying degrees.” The court reserved the harshest sentence for co-founder Neij, who was ordered to spend 10 months in jail. Sunde, the Pirate Bay’s spokesman, who resigned in 2009 after the lower court’s verdict, was sentenced to eight months in prison. Receiving the lightest prison sentence — four months — was Carl Lundström, a wealthy businessman who financed the ISP that hosted The Pirate Bay. Although all three were ordered to pay total damages of $6.5 million, only Lundström, it would seem, has the means to pay any of it — and will probably wind up paying all of it. Following the verdict, the Motion Picture Association (MPA), which represents the major studios overseas, issued a statement saying that it welcomed it and added, “This confirms that such activities are illegal and if you engage in them, you run the risk of very significant consequences.”

Being poor and illegal on the internet is getting harder and harder. I really hope they are putting as much effort in squashing kiddy porn as the are making sure I don't download episodes of Fringe.

David Duchovny Says X-Files 3 is Being Written

French website TVMag caught up with David Duchovny and asked him for an update on the third "X-Files" movie, which the actor previously said would focus on December 2012, an important date in the franchise.

"It is being written," said the actor, adding: "We're waiting for the green light from 20th Century Fox, which is a little disappointed by the relatively poor reception of the second film. The mistake, in my opinion, is that the writers strayed too far from the roots of the series. Plus the film was released in the summer. The third movie will be much closer to what the fans are used to, which is government conspiracies, etc..."

Both Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have expressed interest in returning for the third film, which is likely aiming to hit theaters at the end of 2012 to match up with the rumored "end of the world" storyline.

This would make my lifetime!

I also agree with David Duchovany comment on the second film. It deviated a bit too much from the tone and themes of the series. I don't even think the story line was evengood enough to warrant Scully and Mulder even being implicated, why would they both come out of retirement because some women went missing (not that thats not a big deal it's just not really their thing) after all htey've been to and all they walked away from I just don't see the case presented in IWTB as being credible. I'm sure the release of Dark Knight also had something to do with it but it is a good point. Fight the Future, was a much better and successful film, released at the height of the shows success, it introduced new mysteries and solved old one, it was much more in tune with the original series. I'd also like to see Doggett and Reyes in the new film... scratch that... just Doggett. I was shocked that they weren't even mentioned in "I Want to Believe" (unless I'm not remembering it correctly), even though I hated Reyes, I loved Doggett and I feel like the storyline felt a little empty with no metion of the actual X-Files.

My suggestion for the new film is, bring back Doggett, make Duchovny shape up (seriously he look tied and fat in IWTB), bring back the X-Files, and solve some of those pesky loose ends that were left at the end of the series. Also BRING BACK KRYCEK! Best Villian EVER!

The Litmus Test

So here it is, I was on the fence about Torchwood USA. With the UK version in limbo (seriously where are they gonna go?) and stateside versions usually sucking (ie the new skins trailer and the new being human cast) Torchwood USA didn't really seem like it would be any good. That is until this little tibit of casting news hit the inter net and VOILA! Colour me interested!



So here's the sitch, they pick Gjokaj i'm in for the party, he's got torchwood written all over him and has some serious talent. They pick CMM and they obviously have no tastes and are going for the easy hottie to attract viewer, and that is just not a show I am interested in.

Only time will tell

Steampunk

A week ago I didn't know this was a thing. Now I'm obsessed!





Now I learn the SyFy (seriously, why did they do this? They didn't need a name change) has picked up the web series "Riese". I'm into it! It's like a whose who (B version) of the channels stars.
Now all I need to do is somehow get the SyFy channel!

I totally used to ship these too on Firefly. Yes I know the age difference is creepy but for some reason I think they would have fit. Now I can't even watch Chuck cause he just looks old and it makes me miss Jayne too much.

Here's to a good season boys!

Don't want to get too excited seeing as that's a bad idea, cause they tend to be pretty unpredictable, but hopefully a lot like last season, but with more winning.

Sigh, If only this came in movie form

We never got his back story, and most likely never will... at least not on screen. I recently bought Wash's "Float out" oneshot, but haven't gotten around to readying it... I miss Serenity

I want to own everything on this site

Dam you Mod Cloth!

I might actually buy this, too wonderful to pass up

I'm seriously obsessed with tights now!
