My time with the Sci-Fi Chronicles is coming to a close, and I made sure it ended with a couple of my fave films, from one of my favourite trilogies… Back to the Future: Part II. Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd bring the beloved time travelling pair of Marty McFly and Doc Brown to…

Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) – Leonard Nimoy
I continue to boldly go with the Star Trek films, courtesy of the Sci-Fi Chronicles, and having previously covered Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, I moved onto the third film in the series, helmed by Nimoy himself, one of the caveats about his reprising the Spock character. Spock is dead. The events…
We Don’t Need Roads: The Making of the Back to the Future Trilogy (2015) – Caseen Gaines
As soon as I heard this book was coming out, I jumped at the chance to pick mine up. As anyone who knows me will tell you, I love Back to the Future, and Michael J. Fox has long been one of my heroes. Heck, I was even lucky enough to get to pose…
Evolving with Wango Films
Intensely loyal, wonderfully creative and collaborative, down to earth, and constantly setting new challenges for themselves. With their new feature, 88, hitting theaters, we thought it would be an ideal time to reflect on the progress, and our association with Wango Films, known to us as April Mullen and Tim Doiron. Sue was there…

Dead Before Dawn 3D – April Mullen
Last night, at select theatres across Canada, the zemons arrived! Half zombie, half demon, this new brand of terror has slowly but surely been taking the world by storm, and last night, it was our turn. A homecoming, if you will, since the halfbreeds were essentially created right here in Canada – in Niagara…
Back To The Future (1985) – Robert Zemeckis
I love this movie so much! It’s always a joy to watch, and it puts me right back in 1985, I remember seeing it, reading the novel on my way to school, I remember playing the soundtrack over and over until the ink of the track listings was completely faded, I even got myself a…

Somehow, Day 4 of Fan Expo has come and gone – and it’s all over for another year. Wow. It’s been an amazing weekend, and each day just seemed to hold the bar or raise it in terms of awesomeness. This morning should have been a sign! Sue and I checked in at the Media…
