Dear Readers, I wanted to let you know what’s been happening behind the scenes here at Sci-Fi Bloggers. Some of you have been wondering where Friday Fiction wandered off to, or why articles have been less frequent. Some of you may be asking why less events such as our Veek of Blood and Week of Chaos have been…
Oculus Rift and Project Morpheus: two virtual reality experiments currently being tested by Oculus VR and Sony. Both pieces of technology boast that, for the first time, users can play their favorite games and watch their favorite movies as if they were there. The headsets look like something out of science fiction, except they’re not. …
I want one of those pins. So, I’ve heard great things about Tomorrowland and not-so-great things. I’ve heard the first two thirds are incredible and that the last twenty minutes are a huge disappointment. I’ve heard the performances are phenomenal on all fronts, that the direction is stunning, and that the mysteries of the film and how…
In the UK, three years before Captain Kirk boldly went where no man had gone before, a shabby-looking, blue police telephone box materialized out of thin air and into the hearts and minds of a new generation of viewers.

This topic is a potential minefield to navigate, yet it is one that keeps cropping up on the internet the more and more I search. I recently went to the Science Museum in central London.

I was hooked instantly. That’s probably the best way to begin talking about this trailer. It doesn’t start with some vague threat, or generic establishing shot.

With the release of the second trailer, Star Wars fever is beginning to infect even the most jaded of fans. Just seeing a speeder cruising past a downed Star Destroyer in the desert was enough to get even me salivating at the thought of a decent film. However, I was reminded to keep my optimism…
In the UK a General Election is due to take place on the 7th of May this year. Like all “democratic” countries, the same old rounds of suit-wearing male dullards flood the airwaves with false promise and hope. The electorate is tired and angry and valiantly vows to vote differently this time—except they never do. Politicians…
