NOTE: Spoilers below re season two of The Leftovers. At the outset of this season of HBO’s ambitious original series, The Leftovers, we saw last year’s precarious finale get knocked right off its hinges by a brutal yet beautiful opening that seemed unrelated to the series as a whole. I gave my first impressions of this after viewing it, in…

Films that aren’t tied to massive budgets or governed by large studios tend to be more free to take risks and explore new possibilities of stories and their telling. However, sometimes this goes too far,…

I haven’t been able to write on Sci-Fi Bloggers for quite some time due to the fact that I’ve been on the planet Vulcan. Well, not really. But I have been working on various projects & geeking out at conferences and events over the summer. I’ve missed it. But thanks to Dylan and the team…
So this video is kind of weird. I’m no stranger to music videos with a bit of an out-there concept, especially when I review science fiction-themed ones; but this is just odd. In fact, let me be blunt here: I’m not a fan of the video. It looks like some sort of strange combination between…
Exploits in Time is not a fiction book. At least not in the traditional sense. First off because it’s a collection of short stories, but that’s not what I mean. What I mean is it’s wholly unlike anything I’ve read before. So much so that I’m uncertain on how to go about reviewing it. It…
The Fictionmonger is playing chess with…himself. After a time, the Editor finds him, alone. He then rushes in and takes a seat in front of him. MONGER: What are you—? THE EDITOR: Don’t ask questions, just pay close attention. The Monger looks left, then right, then leans in. MONGER: Where have you been? THE EDITOR: Making a TV series. Not…
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…

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. …
Strange lights. Missing residents. Lake monsters. There’s something peculiar about the town of King Falls. King Falls AM is a brand new podcast that follows a fictional talk radio show in a tiny place called King Falls, where paranormal occurrences seem to be plaguing its denizens. The show is hosted by Sammy Stevens, a new resident…
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…
