REVIEW: Serenity (Major Spoilers)

Posted on by Chris McQuillan

Without a doubt the most anticipated movie of the autumn, “Serenity” is the sci-fi epic from Buffy creator Joss Whedon. A spin-off of the brilliant, if somewhat short-lived series “Firefly” that was cancelled prematurely, Serenity is a low-budget movie designed to bring some closure to the series, and also to bring the possibility of a greater re-birth in some form.

After 44,000 people struggled to get tickets for the World Premiere at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, the movie started attracting plenty of media attention, culminating for the moment in the Premiere last night… Sci-Fi Heaven.net was there in the first audience ever to see the movie.

Here’s how it is.

Quiet times

Posted on by Chris McQuillan

In general, the sci-fi world is very quiet at the moment.

With most shows (except Stargate and Battlestar Galactica) on summer hiatus, not much is happening. Exciting, isn’t it? We’re not dead, but the genre is sleeping at the moment. ;-)

Never fear though, Sci-Fi Heaven will have some exciting new treats coming up to break the tedium. Keep checking back for new competitions, caption contests and editorials.

SG-1 Game Cancelled

JoWood Press Release

JoWooD regrets to be forced to cancel the development agreement with Perception, the Australian developer currently responsible for the Stargate-SG1: The AllianceTM license title. “The title in its current form, initially scheduled for an October 2005 release, does satisfy neither our quality requirements nor the fans expectations. We will not release anything that does not do justice to this well known license” says Albert Seidl, CEO JoWooD Productions Software AG. “In recent months we have invested a lot of time and resources in helping Perception finish the development, but we now simply have lost confidence in their ability to finish this project in time and sufficient quality.”
