I’ve always loved Sci-Fi in general, but I think that crazy Doctor in the big blue box rubbed the concept of time travel into my cerebral cortex so deep that I am attracted to many films that focus on the topic. Timecrimes is not just a time travel movie, but a damn good one that zones in on the concept of time loops, and how things connect. But it’s a convoluted plot, so pay attention!

| The Martians Invade Classic Lit (Or Not) In ‘Mars Attacks: Classics Obliterated’
Last year saw the 50th anniversary of Mars Attacks, and during its celebrations the Martians have invaded the pages of several IDW comic book series, like KISS, Transformers, the Real Ghostbusters, and more. Now, this Summer, the aliens are set to invade classic literature!!!! In what quite possibly could be yet another early April Fool’s Day joke from IDW (much like last year’s Mars Attacks Broadway), the publisher announced today (two full days ahead of April 1st) that next Mars will attack the literary worlds of Moby Dick, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, and Robinson Crusoe in Mars Attacks: Classics Obliterated. The issue is even available now for pre-order at TFAW.

Last year, we posted an image from the upcoming Star Trek: The Video Game revealing what the Gorn would look like in the game, which will be available for Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and for Download starting April 23, 2013. The Gorn species was introduced in the original Star Trek episode “Arena” and has since become a fan favorite. In the 1967 episode, Captain James T. Kirk, played by William Shatner, is forced to battle the Gorn captain to the death. Now, in a new video created to promote the upcoming video game, Shatner has a rematch with the Gorn, reenacting their classic melee. Watch the video here below!
