Sigourney Weaver Hates Alien vs. Predator Just Like You Do

by Germain Lussier

As a concept, Alien vs. Predator was always kind of cool. A fun fan-idea, blending two great franchises, that worked in comic books and video games. But the movies, while financially successful, aren’t very good and Alien star Sigourney Weaver thinks the idea “caused more problems than it was worth.”

The Final Episode Of Double Fine Adventure! Is Out

by Graham Smith

Games are strange in that they’re a medium that inspires devotion but even the most feverish fans often know little about how they’re made. Most efforts to explicate the process are also often hamstrung by the marketing need to put on a good face or by the details being delivered long after the fact by developer’s whose memories have faded.

Double Fine Adventure is different. It’s a twenty-part documentary series about the making of Broken Age where the cameras were there at the very beginning, when the fresh Kickstarter success seemed to point towards a future of infinite potential, and were still there at the very end, when the team size had been whittled away, when morale had been dampened by layoffs, and when crunch had caused people to fall ill. As of last week, the final episode is out and available to watch for free along with the rest of the series.

Baldur’s Gate Tease Is Probably The Pre-Interquel

by Alice O'Connor

Oh what mystery!

You may have seen folks cooing over the Baldur’s Gate site’s addition of a cryptic countdown due to run out of ticks in the wee small hours of Friday morning. Folks in the know, like me and you my dear friend, will guess that it’s counting down to a reveal of the pre-sequel that Beamdog are making on ye olde Infinity Engine.

Alternatively, you may skip over everything I write and so be wholly surprised by this – like a certain colleague of mine whose name rhymes with Flay ‘Em Pith. That’s what you get.

Killjoys - 1.o2 -To Firefly or not to Firefly...

by Gonne

The biggest question Killjoys needs to resolve is can it become more than a stack of references to that beloved, critically acclaimed show of more than a decade ago. If it can, and become something in its’ own right, then that’s great. We’ll have some “new” SF to enjoy. If it can’t, well, that’s that.

Ridley Scott traps Matt Damon on Mars in the first trailer for The Martian

by Susana Polo

Ridley Scott returns to space in The Martian, with Matt Damon as the most resourceful astronaut ever, as well as an expansive cast featuring Kate Mara, Jessica Chastain, Kristen Wiig, Sean Bean, Sebastian Stan, Donald Glover, Jeff Daniels and Chiwetel Ejiofor.

When a monster storm forces the early evacuation of the first manned mission to Mars, Damon's Mark Watney is stranded on the red planet and assumed dead. Unfortunately, it does not appear that he survives by discovering Prothean ruins, the monolith, or a face. Fortunately, it doesn't look like Prometheus' Engineer makes an appearance either.

There is, however, absolutely an Alien reference in this imitation introduction video from the NASA crew of the film, as long as you don't...
