Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

Just another heads up...

Sky 1 is showing the series of Tripping The Rift at 10.05pm from tomorrow night.

The scifi channels site is here http://www.scifi.com/tripping/
more info here http://www.sadgeezer.com/tripping/

Original (Pre pilot) movie from here http://www.ausgamers.com/files/details/html/738

There are going to be offensive areas on this site - so be warned.

I've only seen the pilot and the original animation that the series is based on but I thought they were quite funny.

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

I don't know if anyone has said about it / seen it but, just for info, Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars is showing on Sky One, starting on Sunday (16th) at 9 o'clock.

Having missed it originally, I'll be tuning in, so this is just for info

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

i had just got round to watching all 4 seasons of farscape and while i think some of it was real cheap and poorly acted most of it was magic the main dudes are great and the way its got a constant story line is superb - i also really enjoy Johns use of earth terms to all the aliens as he pretends his name is Luke skywalker etc i watched peacekeeper wars last week and it was good - shame we didnt get another few seasons

A few recent snippets;

* The new Dr Who is now expected to air at Easter. The first two episode titles are Rose & The end of the world. The Dalek(s) appear around about episode 6.

* The firefly film Serenity is now not going to air until the end of September 2005.

* The 9th season of Stargate SG-1 has been ordered (20 eps). Production starts in March 2005.

* The 2nd season of Stargate Atlantis has also been ordered (20 eps), again production starts in March 2005.

* Another Babylon 5 movie has been ordered and begins production in April 2005 - it is believed to be set in 2062, just after the defeat of the Shadows and Galen (known mainly from Crusade) will appear in it.

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

ok,

here's a question to test the true fans out there: anyone here been to an actual sci-fi convention? i've been to several, and am going for the first time in three years in a couple of weeks time

i last went when i was 18, and my other half (who i've managed to convert into being even more of a star trek fan than she used to be) wanted to see what it was all about.... i warned her that it would be scary, but she wanted to go, and plus it's around my birthday - so we got tickets. and, fortunately, that means we get to see patrick stewart for several hours in the afternoon, lol!

Not an actual sci-fi convention, but I went to the Discworld convention last year.

Is that Redemption?

If not, you may be interested: it's for B5 and Blakes 7 fans...

In the Total Film magazine, it said that the ETA for it was in November 2005. The official site states 30.9.05, but that probably will be the US release date.

I hope it gets a full release, not just one cinema in a 100 mile radius.
