Watchmen‘s Adrien Veidt Is a Terrifying Presence in This Clip From the Show’s Blu-Ray Release

Adrien Veidt, Ozymandias himself, didn’t do it thirty-five minutes ago—it was decades ago. And he’s not quite the same man he used to be. In an exclusively released clip (via TV Line) from the upcoming Blu-Ray release of Watchmen, the HBO sequel to the classic Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons comic, we get a look…

Star Trek: Voyager‘s ‘Year of Hell’ Episodes Could Have Been a Whole Season, According to Bryan Fuller

If the writers had had their way. Often considered the highlight of the series, the “Year of Hell” two-parter in Star Trek: Voyager’s fourth season injects messy timeline shenanigans and high drama into the series, which typically focused on less serialized, less intense stories than its immediate forebear, Deep Space Nine. According to Bryan Fuller,…

Kit Harrington, At Least, Is Happy With Jon Snow’s Ending in Game of Thrones

It’s been a little over a year since the last episode of Game of Thrones aired, giving us a lot of time to reflect on whether or not we were satisfied with how things ended up. This is true for the actors who brought those characters to life, too. And for Kit Harrington, at least,…

This Time-Lapse Video Showcases a Gandalf Sculpture Ready to Lead the Fellowship

Let’s be real: Gandalf was always the leader. And in a wonderful video (h/t to Nerdist), sculpture artist Steven Richter pays homage to the majestic visage of Gandalf the Grey, one of the coolest characters ever brought to life by Sir Ian McKellen. In a recently shared time-lapse video, he shows the process of creating…

Ronald D. Moore Dishes on the Original, 4-Hour Concept for the Battlestar Galactica Finale

This is a really long finale, said the joker to the thief. At roughly 141 minutes, the three-parter that ended Battlestar Galactica way back in 2009 wasn’t a short ending by any stretch of the imagination. But the original cut, which clocked in at around four hours, was even more extensive. The only problem was,…

In This Tense Short Film, an Isolated Man Chooses How Far He’ll Go to Return Home

The few first weeks are easy. The next couple of months, maybe a bit harder. But after almost four years in space, under deep isolation as part of an experiment, you’d be willing to do anything to return home. In the Black Mirror-esque short film 1460, one man has to decide how far he’ll go…

Ryan Gosling May Be Our Next Wolfman

Soon, we may find out if Ryan Gosling has nards…because he’s in talks to star in a modern spin on The Wolfman. (Who, famously, does have nards, in case you didn’t know.)

The Clow Cards, Ranked

The not-so-secret appeal to the practice of reading tarot cards is that people have always longed for ways of gleaning their futures in spiritual ways. The appeal of a franchise like CLAMP’s Cardcaptor Sakura is that it borrowed heavily from tarot traditions to tell a sprawling story about a young girl’s quest to become the…
