Speaking of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (see the recent DVD Releases), here is a few cast photos that I ran across recently. This is good news because it means the new season is pretty close to starting. Enjoy.

I was really mixed on Babylon A.D. and then I’ve seen the recent round of television trailers and it looks pretty good. I’m probably one of those rare few that actually like Vin Diesel most of the time though. The poster reminds me of a Blade Runner and Unbreakable cross-over for some reason.

I keep seeing bits about this movie Outlander, that has old school Vikings fighting an alien (or aliens). Here’s a two-minute clip I found on YouTube that gives you a bit of a feel. Oh, there’s also a good alien played by Jim Caviezel (Passion of the Christ) who’s in the clip being interrogated by a Viking chieftain about what he’s doing there

Here’s the second four of J.J Abrams’ Star Trek character posters from Comic Con. Sulu (John Cho), Scotty (Simon Pegg), Chekov (Anton Yelchin) and McCoy (Karl Urban).

Back when I was a kid in the 1980’s, one of the most amazing shows on television was V. It had something for everyone. Sci-fi action for me and deeper messages regarding oppression, conspiracy, and occupation. The idea was that aliens come to earth and through the guise of helping us, set-up various levels of control. Think George Bush if he was a reptilian. Oh wait…nevermind.

Anyway, the four hour mini-series to V was huge. Everyone saw it. More than 80 million viewers watched that mini-series, and it took a slew of other top spots through the years. Alien Nation (if you remember that one) tried to follow in it’s shoes and didn’t come close. Side note: V is also the first show where I saw Michael Ironside who’s better known as the Colonel from Starship Troopers or the voice of Sam Fisher if you’re a Splinter Cell game player.

So anyway, Kenneth Johnson is the creator of V and he’s trying to bring it to the big screen. Latino Review got a copy of the 145 page script dated September 1, 2007 for V: The Movie and they say it’s great. If you don’t mind total spoilers, then have a look. It’s really not too much different than the original movie and it still can hold up very well. I really hope this gets made.

Harry Potter is just one of those movies I watch and then tend to forget about. I’ve seen them all and I am a fantasy movie lover, but there’s just been so darn many that they all become a blur. Anyway, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince does look pretty interesting and I hope it’s more memorable than the others. It comes out November 21st, 2008 so prepare to see a 1000 Harry Potters at your local mall when it does.

The next movie in the vampire versus werewolf saga Underworld: Rise of the Lycans will be coming soon. It stars Rhona Mitra as Sonja, the secret vampire lover of Lucian the leader of the Lycans. Now that’s a real tongue twister! You can check out a few more pictures at the link below.

One of the movies that I’m anticipating will do very well is Terminator Salvation starring Christian Bale as John Connor. The teaser poster is really just the standard fare though, showing the cyborg skull we’ve all seen before.

This teaser trailer for Terminator Salvation looks much better than I had thought, but I should have known with Christian Bale starring in it. It’s going to be out next year on May 22nd, 2009. Check it out!
