logansrunsmall.jpgAccording to the Hollywood Reporter, the long-stalled remake of Logan’s Run is back on track at Warner Bros. Pictures.

Commercial director Joseph Kosinski will make his directorial debut on the sci-fi thriller, which is being written by Tim Sexton.  Joel Silver is producing through his Warners-based Silver Pictures.

The film will be low-tech science fiction in a futuristic setting and much closer to the book than the 1976 movie.  The new film will tackle idea of the greater good and people devoting themselves to an ideology blindly,  while keeping the novel’s concepts of runners,  Sanctuary and gangs outside the system.

consoleyourselfws21.pngFinally as we head towards September, the games have started trickling in ready for the busy season and Microsoft have even confirmed that prospective 360 owners in the UK will finally see the price cut that has been promised to the rest of the world as well as the eventual release of the Elite version of the system. All of which should help keep the 360 as the UK’s best-selling next gen system despite the rampaging Wii gaining ground at a rate of 3 sales to 1.

And if you’re looking for a game to show off you new cheaper machine then look no further than the spiritual successor to the System Shock series, Bioshock, a game that the industry is fast running out of superlatives for. Personally, plaudits for engrossing narrative, great art direction and atmosphere you could cut with a harpoon gun are all well and good on their own - but when you look at pictures, play the demo and read all the features, you’ll begin to get a composite picture of a game that brings everything together into an experience that’s been described as ‘virtually unassailable’ by 1up, and IGN have called an ‘essential gaming experience’.

joancollinssmall.jpgThe News of the World reports that Joan Collins will play a Doctor Who villain in the upcoming series of the hit sci-fi show.

The 74-year-old Dynasty star is reported to play The Doctor’s arch-nemesis ‘The Rani’.

The character first appeared in the show back in 1985 and was played by Kate O’Mara. The Rani is a renegade Time Lady, an evil scientific genius from Gallifrey who has been known to enslave entire planets. Like the Doctor, the Rani has a fully functional TARDIS with the addition of a working chameleon circuit, which enables it to disguise its appearance wherever it lands. In the classic series, a relationship is hinted at between the Doctor and the Rani but not elaborated upon, although it is established that they are the same age.

Hulk Is Hero. It has been a long and hard two years for director Louis Letterier. To bring The Incredible Hulk to the screen was not only only a huge task in terms of scale but also in terms of a media and fanbase who were protective over a character they felt had been misconstrued [...]

The Impending Oil Crisis

quote I am a little leary of the situation. The truth will come out when, and if the US economy, and the dollar begins to strengthen. If prices remain high, you’ll know someone is lying. Either OPEC doesn’t have the supply they claim they have, or Analysts are incorrect when they say demand has decreased. Personally, I don’t buy the claim that demand has decreased. Population is ever increasing, so, the the demand should always be increasing. quote
