Christmas is one of those times when the robots work the hardest on infiltrating human society. A wide variety of cute robots appear to capture the hearts and enslave the minds of children and geeks everywhere. Fortunately, some parents have been preparing their children from birth or before to be wary of the […]

The Japanese government, in an effort to hasten the enslavement of the human race to their robot overlords, have instituted a robot awards program and recently held their first awards ceremony. While their publicized reasoning is that these awards will recognize achievement in robotics and promote further research and development, it’s clear from the […]

The Stuff really surprised me. I didn’t really do my research on this one, through a combination of laziness and being in a rush to return my last Netflix offering. The cast, consisting of Michael Moriarty and Paul Sorvino (who would later be cast opposite each other again on Law & Order), […]

Last night I went down to visit Dustin and Jessika and deliver their Christmas presents.* While I was there, we settled onto the couches to watch the first night of the new SciFi Channel miniseries The Lost Room. I’m certain by saying so I am somehow dooming the miniseries to a horrible fate, […]

My New Robot Overlord

You would think that I, of all people, would be immune to robotic infiltration. I am all too aware of the impending Robopocalypse. I am forever on guard against the latest in sentient mechanical devices and their cunning plans to enslave or annihilate the human race. So there’s no […]

As is often the case when I start getting into a show, ABC has decided not to air the rest of Daybreak. I saw it first on Whedonesque, then over at the futon critic.
I’m torn as to whether I am even going to bother watching Wednesday’s episode or any of the remaining seven they […]

The 2006 Winter Event has begun on City of Heroes and City of Villains. In an entertaining turn of events, a ski resort has been opened up outside of Pocket D where heroes and villains alike can hit the slopes or relax in the chalet in front of a roaring fire with a […]

Lance Henriksen once again lends his talents to a movie which, while not truly terribly, just wasn’t all that good: Near Dark. It’s a vampire movie in the rural midwest, and Lance heads up a band of roving blood-suckers (including a young Bill Paxton) who apparently drive around the country killing people. […]

Tonight was another solid episode of Daybreak. The writers have definitely hit their stride here, and will hopefully maintain this momentum through the end of the series. I’m starting to believe they might actually have a predetermined story arc written out for the whole thing, and will stick to it. I’ve heard […]
