Review: Arrival Will Render You Speechless

Title: Arrival Director: Denis Villeneuve Summary: A linguist is recruited by the military to assist in translating alien communications. There have been a few times in my time as a critic, both professionally and when I was doing it for fun, when I walked out of a movie completely speechless. It doesn’t take very long […]

Why Alien: Isolation is a Game I Will Never Play

On Set Photos of Ridley Scott’s Prometheus
Damn this movie is looking pretty awesome. Keep in mind that it’s not an Alien prequel or anything of the sort. No, totally not anything of the sort. Really.
‘Prometheus’ is going to have an animatronic Space Jockey. Oh and more HR Giger.
Everything about Prometheus reeks of a prequel. I mean, seriously. It’s Riddley Scott, it’s in the Alien franchise’s universe. Now the project has HR Giger advising set and costume design, and reports are coming in that an 8 foot tall animatronic Space Jockey is being built. How much more do you need to say “Prequel?” […]
Alien Prequel – DOA

In a bit of good news today, I’m happy to announce that Ridley Scott’s Alien Prequel will NOT be made. Instead he and Damon Lindelof will be making a brand new IP titled Promethius…and the best thing is that it’s still a Scott Sci-Fi movie.
Top Ten Action Flicks for the Testosterone Deficient
