Leonard Rosenman Memorial
From TrekMovie.com Comments Off - Star Trek
On Sunday, April 28th, I was fortunate enough to attend the memorial for composer Leonard Rosenman (who passed away in March). It’s no secret that Rosenman was one of the composers of the Star Trek movies but this event proved to be even more Star Trek-centric than I’d anticipated.

Brian Austin Green Now A ‘Sarah Connor’ Regular
From SyFy Portal Comments Off - Terminator
Not only is "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" back for a second season on Fox, but now it's getting Brian Austin Green full-time. The former "Beverly Hills 90210" actor was featured in the first season in the recurring role of Derek Reese, the uncle of John Connor (Thomas Dekker) and brother to Kyle Reese who impregnated Sarah Connor in the original "Terminator" movie in 1984. Green joins Dekker along with Lena Headey and Summer Glau as series regulars. Headey plays title character Sarah Connor while Glau will continue in her role as the friendly neighborhood Terminator known as Cameron. Fox, as expected, gave the series a 13-episode initial order, with the possibility of a nine-episode expansion for its second season. The show, while losing more than half of an inflated initial ...

Fox Confirms Renewal For ‘Sarah Connor’
From SyFy Portal Comments Off - Terminator
It wasn't too much of a surprise, but Fox made it official. The network known for axing shows like "Alien Nation" and "Firefly" well before their times took a rare step by renewing a science-fiction series, namely "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles." Michael Ausiello of TV Guide reported rumors of the pickup last week, but others say it wasn't too much of a stretch since the show didn't do horribly in the ratings (it did lose 50 percent of its premiere, but that premiere came after highly rated playoff football), and it's attached to a franchise that is preparing to put out its first movie without actor and governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. Fox has ordered 13 additional episodes for a second season of the show, but it's still not clear whether it will move to the fall, or take ...

Expect More Action In ‘Sarah Connor’ Season 2
From SyFy Portal Comments Off - Terminator
This story contains MINOR SPOILERS for the upcoming second season of "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles." More action, less drama? Or more drama, less action? It's like a real bad beer commercial, but an important balance the writers and producers behind Fox's "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" is trying to strike. But yes, expect more explosions, gun battles, car chases and other visual pockets of ecstasy when "Sarah Connor" returns for its second season in the fall. "I think we will be incorporating more action this year," executive producer Josh Friedman told news outlets including SyFy Portal during a telephone conference call Tuesday. "This is something that the network and I have been talking about about how much action versus drama, and versus special effects. ...

Ten Forward: Pets In Space
From SyFy Portal Comments Off - Star Trek
My life has been overrun by animals! IÂve done something to offend higher powers, and now I must pay my penance by living in a house where puppies and kittens rule. Since one of my cats vomited on the kitchen table this morning, I began to ponder how Klingons deal with vomiting targs, or how Vulcans react to their sehlats peeing on the kitchen floor. Was PicardÂs fish the former ruler of a distant planet? Did Spot ever shred DataÂs ankles with her claws? Despite some of the exotic animals from different planets that appeared or were mentioned in some version of Star Trek, most of petdom in science-fiction in the past 10 years has been rather mundane. Still, there may be some deeper issues to consider when it comes to sci-fi pets. I present the following list of ten series from the last 10 ...
