I’m pretty sure I read this book when I was in my tweens, after I was introduced to the miniseries based on the book. It was at the point when my parents were still bringing home movies for me to watch, before I started exploring my own love of film. I’m sure they simply asked…

Dungeon Crawler Carl (2020) – Matt Dinniman
I thought it would be funny. I had no idea it would be as funny as it. I laughed. A lot, and I knew going in that this was the first book in a series, so I wasn’t worried when it got to the ending and not everything had resolved itself. Carl is a bit…

Stargate: Universe (2010) – Cloverdale, and Trial and Error
Cloverdale brings us to what may be my least favourite episode of the series. Written by Brad Wright, this episode was first broadcast on 26 October, 2010. Now, just because I said least favourite, doesn’t mean it’s not good. It’s just Universe has set a pretty high bar for the series. Scott (Brian J. Smith)…
Stargate: Universe (2010) – Awakening, and Pathogen
Series creators Joseph Mallozzi and Paul Mullie penned Awakening, which first aired on 12 October, 2010. The object the Destiny was headed towards at the end of the last episode? An almost identical ship. The ships connect, without any help of the Destiny crew, and begin information dumps. But the other ship is entirely empty….
