Read MoreMeet the ‘Doctor Who’ actors who brought the retrofuturistic robots to life for season 2’s ‘The Robot Revolution’ (interview)
Stomping around in bulky retro-style robot suits filming the opening episode of “Doctor Who” Season 2 might have seemed like fun, but for professional creature artists Stephen Love and Rob Strange it can be quite hazardous… especially if you topple over! “When you fell, you just had to surrender to it and wait until you stopped rolling around,” Strange reveals. “It felt very safe, but it looked pretty dramatic.” Love and Strange are the main puppeteer actors inside the old-fashioned android costumes for “The Robot Revolution,” which kicked off Ncuti…
Read More‘The Dream is [still] Alive’: First IMAX film shot in space at 40 years
James Neihouse had one more thing to share. From inside a tote bag, he pulled out a chrome frame displaying 11 strips of tape, each of which had printed text and handwritten notes. These were labels removed from film cans, the award-winning cinematographer explained. But not just from any film — these were the 41-year-old labels from the third space shuttle mission to carry an IMAX camera into Earth orbit. The rolls were used in the making of the first movie to include scenes shot in space, as first released…

Read More‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Season 3 teaser trailer promises more gimmicky hijinks in the final frontier (video)
Technically, this isn’t the first footage shown by Paramount+ for the third season of “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.” That label goes to a fun San Diego Comic-Con scene of Pike and crew physically transforming into Vulcans that we shared with you back in July of last year. But this latest sneak peek at the “Discovery” spin-off series hints at new genre-bending installments being given a certain “Star Trek” twist that include a candy-colored retro-style romp, a cheesy romantic comedy, a “Clue”-like ’70s-set murder mystery and a straight-laced documentary-based episode.…
Read More‘Red Planet,’ ‘Top Gun’ and ‘Batman Forever’ star Val Kilmer dies at 65
We all woke this morning to the sorrowful news that charismatic actor Val Kilmer had passed away yesterday at the age of 65 from pneumonia after a decade-long struggle with throat cancer, and it seems like our world is significantly less cool with the harsh reality of his demise. The often abrasive, difficult, and temperamental actor on set was a veteran Hollywood performer with an impressive career spanning over four decades, often portraying tough, individualistic characters that he immersed himself in completely by employing equal measures of rare talent, raw…

The latest entry into the mysterious mire of flying saucer mania is a new abduction thriller from Sweden called “Watch The Skies.” The ominous title is a nostalgic nod…
