Yeah, we got scared, like a bunch of pussy-bellied yellow cowards from planet Gutless. And because we got scared we invented stories that we could latch onto and direct our mindless, unconditional belief in. And those stories grew and grew and the more people who believed in them the more they became true until enough [...]

Disney buying Star Wars and the announcement of another three films to be produced by them is the perfect fodder for some internet mashups. And this one is particularly awesome, as characters from both the Disney and Star Wars universes get spliced and diced together. Pluto as Chewy is a highlight and makes you long [...]

If you haven’t watched the awesome Biting Elbows video, this is a homage to that but done with everyone’s favorite sci-fi franchise that went off the boil. A Jedi warrior has to defeat 20 Siths to get to the Sith Lord and whoop his ass too. And for good measure, Jar Jar Binks gets shot [...]

Now here’s a great feature length film to get cosy with over the Easter holidays. In the near future an ex-jewel thief gets a gift from his son. That gift is a robot butler who is programmed to look after him and help him anyway he can. But once a jewel thief, always a jewel [...]

You just gotta love nerds and all their nerdy ways – It’d be nice to have a poke around these guy’s prop cupboard, as they seem to have got their hands on a variety of special weapons that have mystical powers beyond any known discipline of science. But you wouldn’t necessarily want to get into [...]

It’s Friday and that means you don’t have to do any work all day, because the weekend starts here, so go grab yourself some snacks and sit down to enjoy John Carpenter’s and Dan O’Bannon’s sci-fi comedy from the 70s, later rehashed by O’Bannon for his bug-hunt classic screenplay: Alien. And if your boss asks [...]

Two stunt guys give Star Wars fans a geekgasm by acting out a fight scene with lightsabers with one of them dressed as Vader wearing a GoPro. So, just for a few moments, we can imagine what’s it’s like to be the Supreme Leader of the Dark Lord of the Sith, kicking Jedi ass and [...]

We are, as the BBC’s professor Brian Cox likes to say while gazing wistfully at the camera with some lens flare behind him, made of stardust. But this short film isn’t about you and your stupid stardust body, it’s about the unmanned space vessel Voyager 1 launched in 1977 to explore the cosmos. And it [...]

If you’re a fan of retro sci-fi and your ears miss the synth stylings of a John Carpenter soundtrack, then you’ll enjoy this short sci-fi film that swaps showy CG visuals for old school special effects shot in low light, like split-screen, stop-motion, and miniature photography. So much better than some big budget Hollywood cash [...]

So JJ Abrams is due to direct the new Star Wars movies and he can hopefully redeem it from the horrific lows of the Jar-Jar Binks tainted prequels that left an ugly taste in everyone’s mouths. In this lens flare heavy fan-made trailer, the Star Wars trilogy (the original one) gets made over in the [...]

This guy’s not really sure whether men went to the moon, or not. But while he’s not overly unconvinced that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin left their space boot trails on the dusty satellite, he’s also not convinced that it was faked either. So that kind of puts him in a strange position. Because just [...]
