23 November 2009 12:47 PM, PST | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »

Among the stars of the upcoming new movie Repo Chick - Alex Cox's so-called "official non-sequel" to his 1984 sci-fi cult classic Repo Man - is Us actor/writer/producer Danny Arroyo. 

The film, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival in September, is co-produced by David Lynch's production company (Eraserhead, Dune, The Elephant Man, Twin Peaks) and produced by Daren Hicks and Simon Tams (producers of Batman: Dead End, Searchers 2.0, Hunter Prey). 

The official synopsis of the project is: "Against the background of the credit crunch and the subprime mortgage crisis in the Us, where repossessions of homes, cars and other forms of property is at a new high, the repo business has expanded to everything from boats, houses, aeroplanes, small nations...children."

'Global Frequency' back to TV?

18 November 2009 4:25 AM, PST | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »

Global Frequency, the DC/Wildstorm comic, might be back in play as a TV series.

You may remember that in 2005, Mark Burnett (producer of Survivor) and John Rogers (who would go on to write the comic Blue Beetle and create the show Leverage) created a pilot for the WB. The pilot wasn't picked up; however, it got leaked to the Interwebs and became the most watched pilot that never got picked up.

Now the industry magazine Production Weekly has just posted the following on Twitter: The CW will again try to adapt Warren Ellis' comic book "Global Frequency," this time Scott Nimerfro will script the pilot. Scott Nimerfro has written for Star Trek: Voyager, Tales From The Crypt, Perversions Of Science, The Outer Limits, Stargate: Atlantis, and Pushing Daisies, and was an associate producer on the X-Men movie.

Warren Ellis, creator of Global Frequency, sent out an email with »

As Dollhouse disappears from TV, what other hitmakers' shows have been axed?

10 November 2009 11:12 AM, PST | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »

Joss Whedon show has been taken off air – for now at least – and looks unlikely to be back for a third season

Usually we'd have an episode-by-episode review of Dollhouse up at this point in the week. But not today – because it's disappeared from both UK and Us the schedules.

The fact that the latest show from Joss Whedon - who has Buffy, Angel and, Firefly among his credits - is missing comes as a disappointment (if not a shock) to its most ardent fans. While Dollhouse will have the chance to finish its Us TV run in December, and presumably its UK run not long after, that still asks a lot of viewers.

Problems with the show came after Fox in the Us decided the audience figures weren't strong enough - it has been in a notoriously difficult Friday night slot - and so for the duration of November »

Kate Mulgrew wants Captain Janeway in next Star Trek movie

5 November 2009 5:51 PM, PST | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »

Who and what will feature in the next Star Trek movie?

That seems to be a popular topic for debate as director Jj Abrams and writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman explore story possibilities amid huge pressure to repeat the success of the first film.

And Kate Mulgrew, who played Captain Kathryn Janeway in TV series Star Trek: Voyager, is keen on a slice of the intergalactic action once again.

Janeway also appeared as a Starfleet Vice Admiral in 2002's Star Trek Nemesis movie.

Genevieve Bujold was originally cast in the role for the TV series but quit after the second day of filming on the first episode.

Mulgrew, 54, who had suggested the character's first name, says she'd be very interested in appearing in the new Star Trek franchise if asked by Jj Abrams.

Asked by Sci Fi Now if she'd consider a role in the new films, she said: "I would, »

The Weekly Geek: Could Captain Janeway "Trek" Again?

5 November 2009 12:00 PM, PST | AfterEllen.com | See recent AfterEllen.com news »

Star Trek Voyager fans, prepare to have your heart rates accelerated to warp speed. Kate Mulgrew, the actress who portrayed the wonderful, dynamic, possibly lesbionic Captain Kathryn Janeway, has expressed an interest in appearing in a new Star Trek film. The Geek Files blog has the scoop:

Asked by Sci Fi Now if she'd consider a role in the new films, she said: "I would, I'd love to return to Janeway. I'd love to do her in a movie. I think he'd be wise to do it, don't you? He should get me and Picard in there. It's a brilliant idea.”

The latest Star Trek film covered its tracks in re-launching the “original” series with Kirk, Spock and the gang — but it also allowed for the possibility for other characters in the universe to appear. With a touch of creative sci-fi imagining, Picard and Janeway could totally make cameos.

As Darkness Falls Premiering on Time Warner Cable

4 November 2009 4:45 PM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

We've been waiting for an update on As Darkness Falls, a hybrid television/radio horror anthology series, for some time now, and we recently learned that it will be making its debut on Time Warner Cable in Southern California on Wednesday, November 11th, at 11:30 pm Pst.

From the press release:

"As Darkness Falls… is a program very different from the usual fare on television these days with the chills coming from the performances and writing rather than from tricky special effects work. It is hosted by actor Tucker Smallwood, a well-known character actor instantly recognizable to science fiction/fantasy horror fans for his roles on such series as ‘Space: Above and Beyond’, ‘Star Trek: Voyager’ and ‘The X-Files’.

Series creator John C. Alsedek first developed the idea for As Darkness Falls… back in May of this year. “I’ve always loved the anthology show format and lament that it »

Capt. Janeway in 'Star Trek' Sequel?

3 November 2009 10:20 PM, PST | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »

She hasn’t even seen the new Star Trek film yet, but Kate Mulgrew, who played Captain Kathryn Janeway in the Star Trek: Voyager TV series, already wants in on the rebooted franchise.

Mulgrew's Captain Janeway also had a cameo in the 2002 movie Star Trek: Nemesis. When asked if she would consider a role in the rebooted Trek film series by J.J. Abrams, she responded, "I would, I'd love to return to Janeway. I'd love to do her in a movie."

Writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman are currently developing a storyline for the Trek sequel, and in a separate interview, Abrams said any worry about bringing back established characters was negated by the first film’s success. In this summer’s Star Trek, Leonard Nimoy, who originated the Spock role, played an older, time-traveling version of himself.

According to Coventry Telegraph, Mulgrew admitted she has yet to watch Abrams' movie, »

'Dragon Age' Voice Actor, Kate Mulgrew, Is Intense and Kinda Awesome

2 November 2009 3:16 PM, PST | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »

Kate Mulgrew, best known for her role as Captain Janeway on "Star Trek Voyager," is also a veteran voice actor, providing work on a number of cartoons and video games. Her latest gig places her in the role of Flemeth, a powerful witch in the universe of "Dragon Age: Origins." I spoke with her over the phone a little while ago, and with the game dropping tomorrow I thought now would be a perfect time to share some of her thoughts on the role.

I've done a lot of interviews with celebrity voice actors, and it's rare that they're super committed to the role they're playing. Mulgrew seemed to have a pretty serious passion for Flemeth, though, speaking at length about her motivations. "She is this mysterious and powerful witch. She transcends time, she transcends place," said Mulgrew. "She's pivotal to the game. The hero can be hoist on his own petard, »

Alien Encounters – Television's Memorable Extra-Terrestrials

30 October 2009 10:12 AM, PDT | TVovermind.com | See recent TVovermind.com news »

Anna, the face of the Visitors - V

With the upcoming launch of "V",  it makes it the perfect time to reminisce about our favorite aliens of yore.   The extra-terrestrials who land on earth seem to come in three varieties:  aggressors, refugees, and observers.   But whether they have come to Earth with world domination on their minds, or they simply want to study the local ugly giant bags of mostly water, they almost always seem to stick around for a while.

So click-through and check out some of TVOvermind's favorite, and not so favorite aliens on television.

Aggressors

We've got a pretty nice planet here.  And they want it.  They want our resources; they consider us to be lower life forms and want us to supplement their food supply; they just want us dead.  No matter how you slice it, we are going to have a fight on our hands. »

Preview: “Law & Order: Svu” Asks How Pedophile Rights Are Different From Gay Rights

21 October 2009 8:46 AM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »

***Spoiler Alert*** This article reveals important plot points from tonight's Law & Order: Svu.

Is pedophilia, the sexual attraction some adults feel for children, an unchosen sexual orientation? If so, is it discrimination to criminalize consensual sexual relationships between adults and children?

These are some of the questions asked by “Hardwired,” a particularly provocative episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit running night on NBC.

The show begins like a typical episode, with a child’s sexual experimentation with another child leading to an investigation of both his wrestling coach and his step-father, who first befriended his mother (played Rosie Perez) while she and the boy were both in a homeless shelter.

Rosie Perez (center) guest stars on tonight's Law & Order Svu

When it becomes clear that one man is guilty, it eventually leads to an investigation of the leader of a “pedophile rights” activist group, Our Special Love. When irrefutable »

Terilynn's Trek: Thoughts On Star Trek Cruise, 'Star Trek Xii'

20 October 2009 2:57 PM, PDT | AirlockAlpha.com | See recent Airlock Alpha news »

Could the announced delay of new film actually be a good sign? I seem to spend an inordinate amount of time in airport bars or airline clubs. The good part about that happenstance is the fact that I can whip out the laptop and begin to type my column when I tend to get what I call .The Wave.. "The Wave" is that brainload of ideas and stuff that sometimes builds up and then begs to be let out. As some of you know, The Husband and I participated in the Star Trek Cruise organized by StarTrekCruise.com, and attended by several Trek celebrities from "Star Trek: Voyager," "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" and "Star Trek: Enterprise" . specifically, Chase Masterson, Garrett Wang, Anthony Montgomery and Gary Graham.

Episode Recap: Stargate Universe - 1.01: Air: Part 1

19 October 2009 7:31 PM, PDT | TVStar | See recent TVStar news »

The opening credits of the series premiere of Stargate Universe show the vast expanse of space as a ship jumps out of Ftl and begins to glide closer to our screens. An orchestra of sounds play in the background with an almost menacing and forboding undertone. It doesn't take long before it's crystal clear that the show you are about to watch bears little resemblance to its predecessors. We're taken inside the ship where we see corridor after corridor coming to life, in much the same manner as that of the series premiere of Stargate Atlantis. As the camera pans from deck to deck, and lights spring to life, one thing becomes painfully clear: the ship is old, very old. And suddenly I have to remind myself that I'm not watching Battlestar Galactica. The music, even the look of the ship, instantly take me back there. I was prepared for this, »

And the Next 'Star Trek' Movie Villain Is...

18 October 2009 9:05 PM, PDT | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »

Everybody's asking the question: "Who's going to serve as the villain or villains in the sequel to last summer's Star Trek?" Now that we're in an alternate Trek timeline, writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman are free to tell stories that incorporate familiar faces but combine them in new and interesting ways.

Which got us thinking: who's likely to make the short list, and what sort of possible stories/combinations might we see? Will the filmmakers choose to go the route of borrowing once more from canon...or will they elect to craft an entirely new story with entirely new antagonists?

Since new antagonists are impossible to predict, we decided to look to the original canon and have offered a list of possible villains from which Orci and Kurtzman could choose. We've divided the categories up into four groups:

The Heavy Hitters

The Middleweight Contenders

The Individual Narcissists

FX Lab: A Conversation with Andrew Clement

15 October 2009 11:26 PM, PDT | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

From working FX on SNL and Letterman to creating monsters for Dark Shadows, Andrew Clement has some tales to tell. Recently-wrapped on the reboot of A Nightmare On Elm Street (for which he redesigned Freddy Krueger), Jason Anders caught up with Clement for a candid conversation about his world of Creative Character Engineering.

Ja/Fangoria: So let's begin with your work as a make-up artist for NBC's Saturday Night Live; tell me about the work you did for the show, how you became involved, the memories you have being around the cast of actors, and which seasons you were involved in.

AC: I wish I had been involved in the first few seasons of SNL, it was such a fertile time for the show. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I’m not quite that old. As it is, I watched those shows in Jr. High and High School, and now I have the DVD’s. »

David Goyer and Brannon Braga Exclusive Video Interview Flashforward

4 October 2009 10:51 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

If you’ve been watching the great ABC show “FlashForward” on Thursday nights, you’re going to love the interview I did with David Goyer (”Blade”, “The Dark Knight”), and Brannon Braga (”Star Trek: Voyager”, “Star Trek: Enterprise”, “24″) a few days ago. That’s because these two great writers are responsible for getting the show on the air, have mapped out where the show is headed, and what mysteries are going to be revealed along the way. And if the ratings are any indication, the show is going to be around for awhile.

Now for the best part: While some interviews are brief, my conversation with Goyer and Braga went for about 30 minutes. What that means is we talked about everything - from how “FlashForward” got off the ground to how the show gets made each week. Of course, we also talked about what was up with the Oceanic Airlines »

Giveaway: Autographed Posters of the Stargate Universe Cast - Plus Steve Has Seen the First 3 Hours

30 September 2009 10:45 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

I’d never seen an episode of any “Stargate” show before last week. The only “Stargate” I’d ever seen was the feature film and I liked it but didn’t love it. While I understood how a weekly show featuring the Stargate technology could work, I never felt the need to tune in. But with a friend of mine as one of the leads on the newest “Stargate” show, “Stargate Universe”, I knew I’d be checking it out. Thankfully, I’m happy to report after watching the first three hours, the show was a lot better than I expected and I’ve already added it to my DVR’s season pass. But the best part of the show is I don’t have to lie to my friend about his performance or that I think the show is cool.

While I have more to say on the show, »
