It’s a weird month for science. The internet is a flurry with emotion over two things: the Planet Formerly Known as Pluto and the apparently fictional Loch Ness Monster. The dwarf planet Pluto was discovered in only 1930 and it became a part of our educational galaxy. You were bummed out if you had to…
For those that do not remember, five months ago I wrote a review of the opening chapter to an upcoming science fiction novel by the name of A Timeless Abandon. I gave it a glowing review, and stated that the book was something to look out for, because it was going to be amazing. Having…

For hours, they sat there, trying to convince him, but he wouldn’t budge. So, they left, and he drank. More people came, trying to convince him, but he wouldn’t budge. So, they left, and he drank. After a while, I arrived. He was sitting there, still drinking, waiting to die. “Hey there,” I said. The…
BEWARE: I SPOIL. SPIKE IS BACK! Wow, that must be really annoying for James Marsters, but it’s the first thing that comes to mind when I see his face. This is his second episode in MHC, and the fifth episode premiering on the SyFy network. It’s entitled “Shelter Me.” He plays Mr. Davis, a man…

As a self-proclaimed and certified Newbie, every week it is my goal to throw myself headfirst into all things sci-fi, specifically peering into some of the most critically acclaimed TV shows and movies! I check them out in pure tabula rasa fashion, with typically nada knowledge about the premise and letting the…
Whether you believe they exist or not, you can’t deny that the chances aliens are out there, somewhere, are pretty high. Based on the size and scope of the physical universe as we know it, which may very well be infinite, the likelihood that we are alone in this sea of stars is slim to…
The book-turned-movie Ender’s Game is what made me first ponder this subject, and thanks to the theater release of dystopian YA series, Divergent, I haven’t stopped thinking about it. Perhaps a change in medium can be enlivening to some books, but it is also true that there are just some beloved stories that we would hate…
Okay everyone, this is it, the one we’ve all been waiting for. I remember when the first Iron Man‘s credits finished rolling and I thought, Okay, maybe there’ll be something good here. The movie was fantastic, but I just feel like there’s one last thing that I need to—HOLY $%&#ing $#!& on a $%$#$%&#ing Krispy Kreme…
I’ll be honest, I’ve forgotten how old I was when I first heard of Will Wright’s dream game, Spore. I remember being very young, and very excited. I remember digging through the internet, trying to find every scrap of information I could about the game, watching the full hour long Leipzig demo over and over,…
