As a self-proclaimed and certified Newbie, every week it is my goal to throw myself head first into all things sci-fi, specifically peering into some of the most critically acclaimed TV shows and movies! I check out the show in pure tabula rasa fashion, with typically nada knowledge about the premise and letting the work…
WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD! We’ve all contemplated it at one point or another, tossed the idea back and forth in our minds. You know the one, the concept that this beautiful world in which we’re living is, in actuality, an elaborate fabrication. It’s that eerie suspicion that something this complex, this intricate, couldn’t possibly be real….
So, I have officially discovered my new strange addiction. After watching only one episode, Torchwood has completely enthralled me. The first thing I thought before even getting ten minutes in was that this show is giving me so much more Doctor Who. Airing in 2006, Torchwood is actually a spin-off of the Who series. It…
SPOILER ALERT: I WILL SPOIL YOUR SOUL AWAY IF YOU LET ME. I WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE. IF YOU ARE NOT CAUGHT UP?RUN. The Plot. We left season one with so much madness happening. It’s unclear where Dracula’s writers will go with the story. However, that’s a good thing because it leaves open a universe…

Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before. This week, I tackled one of the pinnacles of science fiction: Star Trek. My newbie-ism has no bounds….
The following piece was written by Nathaniel Sewell, author of the futuristic, political satire novel Fishing for Light. It was sent in to us for consideration. Here at Sci-Fi Bloggers, we like showcasing a variety of different opinions. Normally they are those of our intelligent team of contributors, which continues to grow, even to this day. However, there are…
If you’re like me, you might like occasionally glancing through some of the creative projects that pop up on Kickstarter. There’s always some stuff on there that both makes me smile and shake my head. The other day (after I changed my password), I was surfing around the site and discovered a new sort of…
(WARNING: In case the title wasn’t clear enough, mild sexual content lies ahead.) In the realm of science fiction, particularly under the headings of both film and television, it is a widely known fact that when two attractive people/creatures of opposite (or perhaps not-so-opposite) sexes encounter one another, they are likely going to, in many cases, end…

Recently there have been a few key color-blind casting choices in superhero films. This shift toward an openness for non-traditional casting probably occurred when Marvel cast Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury. He’s now played that traditionally white character with his own signature swagger in four films (plus cameos in two and an Agents of…
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…
