I’ve said it many times, and I’ll never stop reminding people: my first memory of life is seeing Star Wars opening day on the big screen.  That little movie informed me of a great many things that I would later go on to discover, which includes several points along the career of...

Podcast: Play in new window | Download In the beginning, the four of us sat down in front of microphones and unleashed ourselves upon an unsuspecting world with the misbegotten notion that somebody out there might actually want to hear what we have to say.  Ego, much?  You betcha. 100...

After two days at a con, I’m exhausted! I had every intention of getting this out as soon as I got home from Sci-Fi Expo, but I found myself completely wiped out after all the excitement that I was too out of it to put together coherent thoughts! Day 2 had me heading directly to the...

Until facts are confirmed, let the speculation begin!  According to Vulture, Man of Steel, 300, and Watchmen director Zack Snyder will be taking the reins on a new Star Wars movie… but not one of the new trilogy.  Instead, it will take place “parallel to” the events of...
