What Halo Fans Want To See In Steven Spielberg TV Show For Xbox One
Halo is a much-loved franchise that leapt from the computer screen to books, comic books, and even a successful web series, Forward Unto Dawn. But now it's going to be a television series, one produced by multi-award-winning (and Forbes-listed billionaire), Steven Spielberg. It's an excellent choice.
The Xbox One Looks Like One Wonderful System–With Two Caveats
A PlayStation fangirl admits it: Today's reveal of the Xbox One kind of blew the PlayStation 4 reveal out of the water. Even the name, Xbox One, rather than the casually monikered Xbox 720, is surprising and different. The PS4 reveal was centered on the games (and yes, the graphics capability of the PS4 seems superior). But the Xbox One focused on the integration of the Xbox with all of the media in your living room, making it "one" system. Obviously, a tech demo held at Microsoft's headquarters in Redmond is less proof and more proof of concept, but if the Xbox One is everything Microsoft claims, it looks like science fiction made reality.
13 Geeky Items To (Secretly) Wear To The Office
Nothing shows your alliance to your favorite geek pastime like, say, a Batman t-shirt. But not everyone works in a Silicon Valley, where employees can roll in to the office in streetwear. And although dress has become more casual since the Mad Men era (ties for men, matching shoes and bag for women), some offices prefer business dress for their employees.
Review: Star Trek Into Darkness
Let’s cut to the chase. Unlike the misfired Star Trek (2009), Star Trek Into Darkness (STID) is an extremely good Trek film. While not perfect, STID gives us a well-paced and action-filled 132 minutes with all the characters we know and love (Captain James T. Kirk, the Vulcan first officer Spock, the cantankerous doctor McCoy, and the rest of the crew), along with moments film-goers are hoping to see…and more than a few they won’t see coming.
Return Of The Star Wars Film Crew: Star Wars VII To Go Back To U.K.
When I think of Star Wars, I think of fabulous space mystics with swords that go “whoosh.” And when I think of Star Wars locations, I think Tunisia, Death Valley, and Elstree Studios, one of several studios in Elstree and Borehamwood, England. So does Kathleen Kennedy, George Lucas’ heir to the Lucasfilm throne. Kennedy and company have announced they’ll be returning to the studio where most of Lucasfilm’s movies were shot.
Paramount Explains Why ‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ Will Be Released Early
You have but to google the words “release date” and “Star Trek Into Darkness” to learn that the highly anticipated sequel to the 2009 reboot of Star Trek will be released on Friday, May 17. But you—and Google—would be wrong. Recently, Paramount announced that the general, non-IMAX, release of Star Trek Into Darkness has actually been moved up to May 16. (The IMAX release remains at Wednesday, May 15, at 8pm.) Here’s why.
What’s Terribly, Horribly Wrong With EA’s Upcoming Sequel To ‘Star Wars: Gungan Frontier’
According to Fusible, Lucasfilm registered multiple domain names on the same day that EA’s exclusive deal to produce Star Wars videogames was announced, leading many of us to believe these domain names are future game titles...which gives us time to craft the perfect excuse for why we’ll be out of the office for each launch day. But EA will need time too, to resolve a very real problem that one upcoming game will have.
Neil Gaiman Promises Dangerous New Cybermen In Upcoming ‘Doctor Who’ Episode
Neil Gaiman, the author of the famed Sandman comic book, as well as such novels as Coraline, American Gods, and many, many others, became a writer of Doctor Who last year, with the episode “The Doctor’s Wife.” His second time around the TARDIS, the fabulously titled “Nightmare in Silver,” will be airing this Saturday on BBC/BBC America. In a conference call, Gaiman spoke about his love for the long-running British show…and how he put his own particular twist on the Doctor’s old enemy, the Cybermen.
