Battlestar Galactica ‘No Exit’ on Hulu
Joss Whedon has appeared on TV Guide answering a few questions regarding his new sci fi series, Dollhouse. It’s a four part interview but as yet only part one has been posted. Watch it to gain a fair bit of insight into Whedon’s ideas for the characters, particularly the main character as played by Eliza Dushku.
After what seems like an eternity, on January 16 the Sci Fi channel will commence airing the final half of the last ever season of Battlestar Galactica. There are eleven episodes in total and from all accounts, they promise to be nothing short of superb.
The series has been brilliant from day dot, but whether you agree with this statement or not, there is one thing that is absolutely certain – there are a lot of unanswered questions yet to be resolved. No, Battlestar Galactica hasn’t been like Lost, where every answer just continues to lead to another unanswered question (I concede, this may change with Lost’s final season). But its storyline has been deep to say the least, and with such depth comes many loose and tangled ends.
Executive Producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick have teased fans with an exclusive interview over at TV.Guide, where they state that questions will be answered…with the caveat word of ’sort of’, and add a few tid bits of information regarding the upcoming Battlestar prequel, Caprica. I don’t really know what ’sort of’ means, but I’m sure roughly 12 weeks from now that’ll change.
In the meantime, go have a read of the interview at TV.Guide, it’s short but interesting.
Watchmen featurette with commentary by director Zack Snyder. This is going to be one awesome movie.
If you’ve read Stephen King’s The Dark Tower then you’ll no doubt be happy to hear that Lost and Star Trek producer J.J.Abrams has alluded to his involvement in bringing the novel to the big screen.
The Dark Tower is an epic of seven books that took Stephen King more than two decades to write, and amongst fans of fantasy it is, as they say, a classic. Recognising this fact, Abrams has acknowledged that producing a movie version of The Dark Tower will be, in his words, “every bit as daunting an adaptation as the Lord of the Rings trilogy must have been for Peter Jackson, except we’ve got seven books we’re looking at.”
Fans who are pleased with this news may need to take a breathe though, for Abrams has many projects underway and has categorically stated The Dark Tower will have to wait for him to wrap up both Lost and Star Trek.
“The idea of doing that at the same time Carlton and I are bringing “Lost” to a close is simply not viable,” Abrams said.
But the news is enough, for its a fairly sure bet that most fans of Stephen King and anyone else who has read the series has been waiting to hear this for a very long time.
