I remember having the V.I.N.C.E.N.T. and Maximilian pencil holders when I was a kid, as well as some of the action figures, the soundtrack album, as well as the storybook album, the comics and finally I had a giant puzzle from the CNE one year. And I remember watching this film in the theater, Perkins’…

The Killing – Final Theories On Rosie’s Killer
Alright, I’ve been going through theories like a madwoman pretty much since episode one, back when I went with the old X-Files mainstay – TRUST NO ONE. That mantra could actually be applied in this case, as well. While not everyone is involved in Rosie Larsen’s murder, I’m pretty sure everyone has some dirty…
Planet of the Vampires (1965)
14 years before the Nostromo took flight to terror in Alien in 1979, the Argos and it’s sister ship the Galliot were heading to a mysterious planet they call Aura, investigating a signal that has been transmitting for two years (I don’t know if that means they have FTL travel but I guess for…
Z*CON – The Movie!!!
Z*Con is a new indie film being produced by the same shiny folk who brought us the Big Damn Fan Film Browncoats: Redemption. Based on the ‘Verse created by Joss Whedon in the (wrongly) cancelled Firefly series, and its follow-up film, Serenity, Redemption introduced us to a new crew with new problems faced in the months…
Detective Dee and The Mystery of The Phantom Flame (2010)
With a name like Detective Dee and The Mystery of The Phantom Flame, you just knew I’d get around to watching this… It sounds like pure pulp and a lot of fun. Which is pretty much exactly what it was. Directed by Hark Tsui, the film is set in 690 B.C.E. Andy Lau, plays the…
Continuum S01 E03 – Wasting Time
We join Kiera in 2077 in this week’s opener, as she is kitted out in full assault gear to chase down an ex-soldier who has become a Liber8 revolutionary. Finding their target behind a holographic wall, they capture Sonya (Lexa Doig), code-named The Queen of Hearts. This transitions us back to 2012 where Kiera Cameron…
The Killing – Day 25 – Donnie or Marie
This show is KILLING me!!! So so good – every episode has been amazing, and there was so much going on this week that I had a hard time falling asleep after! Let’s just jump right in, shall we? The key card Linden found on the 10th floor belongs to someone in Richmond’s camp. …
Prometheus (2012) – Some Thoughts and Questions…
Prometheus is a film with some big ideas. This is a film I’ve been looking forward to since I learned Sir Ridley was returning to the universe that he helped create and establish. Is Prometheus a perfect movie? Far from, many of the secondary characters and even some of the leads are interchangeable. But it’s…
Killer Elite (2011)
This is a good movie, but by no means a great movie. Adversely none of the characters in the film are good at all, barring of course Yvonne Strahovski, who plays the innocent love interest for Jason Statham’s character Danny. The film is based, loosely, on the non-fiction The Feather Men by Ranulph Fiennes, which…
Black Hawk Down (2001)
So as Prometheus draws one day closer, I wanted to watch another of my Ridley Scott faves – so I settled in for Black Hawk Down. This movie is fantastic! But I only own it on DVD, as I refuse to upgrade my copy to blu-ray until Sony releases the deluxe edition as opposed to…
