Remember how engaging that first trailer for The Orville was?  This is one of those few times where the show lives up to the stylized view. If you liked the trailer, give the show a chance. Don’t let it fall into the FOX curse. Two space series, both alike in their presentations, are fighting for your […]

As so often happens with films and TV, two shows both alike in their spaceships are competing for viewers this fall. The first, a brand-new offering in a tried-and-true franchise, CBS’s Star Trek: Discovery. The other, new kid on the space block, FOX’s The Orville. Comparing the first trailers of STD (no, really, that’s Discovery’s acronym) and Orville recently for […]

Hot off the success of the most Lynchian tv series that isn’t Twin Peaks, Legion creator/writer/director Noah Hawley announced some big news at SDCC.  During the official FX panel for Legion, Hawley broke the news that he is currently developing a Doctor Doom film for FOX. This news comes as a surprise, as after the multiple repeated attempts […]

What would the world of comic book adaptations be without the word mutant? The Marvel Cinematic Universe! I kid, I kid. But really, FOX’s The Gifted is a television series based around the struggles of muggle parents when they learn their children have mutant abilities. The series hails from Burn Notice creator Matt Nix, who is […]

When we say “Marvel Films by Fox,” you know that means X-Men and co., right?  Not Iron Man? Not The Avengers? Just making sure.   The folio of Marvel comic titles that Fox still owns the film rights for is massive and mutant-tastic, meaning that as long as interest for funny paper film adaptations keeps […]

When the news first came down the pipeline that FOX was revisiting it’s popular series The X Files, feelings were mixed.  Did we (the fans) really need a revisit of the 9 season series, and the two films?  Of course, the network went with “yes”, hedging all it’s bets on the returning core cast and crew […]

After 17 years of X-Men films (and one franchise reset but not really because they KIND of took it back), we’re going to get more of the Phoenix Saga. For X-Men: Apocalypse, several of the key former X-Team were recast in the vein of X-Men: First Class, bringing younger actors into already existing roles.  Like James McAvoy […]

Fox is making sure that at least some actors impacted by recent series cancellations won’t be on the unemployment rolls for too long. The upcoming supernatural drama, The Passage, has tapped six of it’s cast, including show lead Mark-Paul Gosselaar (Pitch, Saved by the Bell, Truth Be Told). Also announced castings are  Saniyya Sidney (American Horror Story), […]

FOX is jumping back into science fiction hardcore with their upcoming series The Orville from writer/creator Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy).  The show, on the outside at least, resembles some kind of mashup between Star Trek and greatest-Star-Trek-film-ever Galaxy Quest, with pretty bitchin’ sets.  FOX just released the first trailer over on twitter: Join @SethMacFarlane and the rest of the crew aboard […]
