Lenard Nemoy

  • Mario and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles meet, with tragic results.

Film

  • Could Twilight Bring About a New Buffy The Vampire Slayer Movie? Only if there’s a god.
  • Lenard Nemoy makes a cameo appearance in the New Trek Trailer.
  • Sony Pictures has released an awesome animated poster for Terminator Salvation.

Internet

  • Fantasy Magazine warns those of you who aren’t teenage girls about Ten Things You Should Know About Twilight.
  • io9 points out the monster in the new Star Trek trailer looks very similar to the Cloverfield monster. Is this a sign Abrams, the director of both, is running low on material or that he’s developing the playful habit of inter-linking his works.
  • ListVerse runs down the Top Ten Star Wars Spoofs.
  • Star Wars: A New Heap Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Death Star is a tour of visual elements of the original Star Wars trilogy.

Literature

  • Free Fiction: Listen to “Bury the Dead” by Ann Leckie at PodCastle.
  • Free Fiction: Listen to “Portrait in Ivory” by Michael Moorcock and more at StarShipSofa.
  • Free Fiction: Read the romantic fantasy novella “Glad Yule” by Pati Nagle at QuasarDragon.

  • Interview: The Omnivoracious blog to read Jeff VanderMeer’s interview with Charlaine Harris, best known as author of the “Southern Vampire” book series
  • The Crotchety Old Fan counts down the The Top Ten Collectible SF Magazines.
  • io9 rounds up a list of the Ten of the Kinkiest Science Fiction Books You’ll Ever Read.
  • To mark the Thanksgiving holiday, Cinematical compiled a list of Terrific Turkeys, some of the worst films release in the new millenium.

Television

  • Slice of Sci-Fi shares a few theories regarding Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Personally, I don’t think that there is going to be so much depth to this story that fans need to start theorizing on underlying motivations.
