If you’ve ever visited the actor’s tables at a fandom convention in the United States, chances are you’ve met Richard Hatch. You’d most likely know him from the original Battlestar Galactica television series from the 1970’s when he played Captain Lee “Apollo” Adama. Maybe the younger generations would know him from his role in the […]

There aren’t enough words in the English language to explain to you how truly awesome HawaiiCon is.  Sure, there are bigger conventions closer to home you could go to, but why WOULDN’T you want to experience an event in the middle of paradise?  For an event in it’s third year, the loyalty of fans is […]

Well Frak.  Somehow, I keep hoping this project will fall by the wayside, but it keeps moving forward. Universal Studios just officially added producer Michael De Luca (Captain Phillips, Moneyball, American History X) to the upcoming reboot of sci fi operatic series Battlestar Galactica.  TrackingBoard who broke this story is reporting De Luca is being brought in […]

We love Atlanta’s DragonCon.  A lot.  There is no other convention quite like it in the United States, possibly the world!  (I’ve never been to a non-US con though, so I can’t claim that last thing.) This year, the cosplay gauntlet was again thrown down by the massively talented crafters and creators.  Sometimes it’s not […]

There is some kind of special science fiction magic that happened when Ronald D. Moore brought his vision of the classic series Battlestar Galactica to life on December 8th, 2003.  If you’re curious about that particular date, it’s the first night the ‘mini series’ aired on the SyFy channel, back when it was still SciFi.  Needless […]

It has been 10 years since Ronald D. Moore’s reimagined Battlestar Galactica jumped into the scene via SyFy network, and it’s lasting impressions can still be felt today. Many consider Battlestar Galactica to be one of the few truly successful TV franchises to be rebooted, considering it has now known life as 5 different series, and is currently in development […]

One of our favorite parts of any conventions (aside from those panels you wait all weekend for) are the amazing cosplayers. and the combinations you find them in.  No event holds this truth more self evident than Atlanta’s DragonCon.  I mean where else can you see a Leeloo and Diva Plavalaguna from 5th Element posing […]

I am so giddy about this casting announcement, I’m not gonna lie.  Edward James Olmos, known for his iconic roles across the TV and filmsphere, is joining ABC’s Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.  We can only hope EJO will speak to Coulson just once like Gaff speaks to Deckard. Olmos will play Robert Gonzales, whose debut […]
