This sneak peek gives a hint at part of the menace planet Earth might be facing in the first installment of the two-part Doctor Who season eight finale – Dark Water. Missy delivers a couple of lines that indicate part of her plan is to have the dead rise from their graves, assumedly to do […]
It’s the beginning of the end, but the end of what? Obviously, we’re nearing the end of the eighth series with this being the penultimate episode and part one of a two-part finale. What’s not so clear, yet, is who Missy is, why she’s so fascinated with Clara, and how she’s mixed up with Cybermen. […]
What if, back during the height of the cold war, the United States built a gigantic interstellar spaceship and sent it on a century-long journey to Proxima Centauri with 600 of our “best and brightest” citizens on board? The answer to that hypothetical question is explored in Syfy’s upcoming mega-event series Ascension. The show will […]
On October 24, Syfy’s official Ascension account (@AscensionSyfy) tweeted out a “top secret” video that currently doesn’t seem to be found anywhere else. The video looks like an old, black and white short that reminds me a little of those Dharma Initiative film reels the LOST gang found inside the hatch. It’s got all the […]
So, what’s up with the talking TARDIS sounding all GPS-ish? Perhaps it’s something the Doctor added to help increase the accuracy of his travels. He has been known to land someplace, and somewhen, other than where he intended, but half the fun of traveling in the TARDIS is opening the door to see just exactly […]
Ah, the great outdoors. It’s always nice to “get back to nature,” but it’s not so nice when nature comes to you, especially when it’s everywhere. The episode, In the Forest of the Night, finds the Doctor and Clara in the middle of a forest. Or is it London? The problem is, it’s both. The […]
With the baddie of the week mucking about with dimensions and other such nonsense, the Doctor gets trapped inside an ever-shrinking TARDIS. Thankfully, he’s able to keep the inside dimensions constant or things would’ve gotten messy. Unfortunately, the TARDIS is now so small he can’t possibly exit. There’s barely enough room for his hand to […]
“I’m the new Doctor … and you can call me Clara.” The Doctor’s trapped and Clara’s on her own, but at least she’s got the sonic screwdriver. Wait. Does she know how to use the sonic? If she does, how and when did she learn? This should be interesting. Give the photo gallery a look […]
If the trailer is any indication, the title of next week’s Doctor Who episode, Flatline, is pretty darned literal. It looks like people are being “flattened” into 2-dimensional beings by some (probably) alien menace. Whether this menace is from outer space or just from a universe void of more than 2 dimensions (like that really […]
Tomorrowland isn’t coming out tomorrow, or the next day. Or the day after that. In fact, it’s not coming out until May 22, 2015, but we’ve already got a teaser trailer to give us a few vague clues about the film. I get a bit of a “Wizard of Oz” feeling from the quick trailer. […]
