Part of looking at movies does involve the business side of show business. We try to have a little fun with it, as each week Tim makes his predictions as to how movies will perform at the Box Office. Then, on Sundays, we look at how Tim’s predictions fared. We’re trying to get back into the swing of things around here, which means this week we had some predictions from Tim. As usual, he got... 

You’ve heard Tim make his weekly predictions on our podcast, guessing how the box office numbers are going to play out as we discuss each week’s estimates. Now we’re putting them down in text just to see how good Tim’s track record winds up. Tune in each week as we compare Tim’s predictions against the actual numbers from the box office weekend, as Tim takes on the Box Office. Well, I’m... 

This week’s not-so-clever title refers to the fact that none of us had seen Prometheus at the time of recording (which has since been remedied, at least by Rafe). While we don’t have our own review to talk about, we do discuss the different reactions from our two writers, Thomas and Doc Rotten. We also talk about the passing of sci-fi legend Ray Bradbury and how his work has been realized... 

Prometheus is a multi-layered, fascinating, visually-stunning sci-fi masterpiece. Ridley Scott channels his inner Stanley Kubrick to realize an intelligent, yet exciting and visceral, thrill-ride. The film resides very much in the Alien universe Scott launched in 1979 but it is also very much divergent from that film and its themes. With Prometheus, Scott transports the audience to another world, another... 

Two scientists (Noomi Rapace and Logan Marshall-Green) are leading an expedition to a far off planet after getting the basic inspiration from several cave paintings they’ve discovered in Scotland. Followed by a boatload of crewmembers, the two of them find mysterious artifacts and controls left behind by an alien race that could potentially hold the keys to finding out the sordid and fascinating... 

It is almost summer once again and fantasy, science fiction and horror films rule the roost. This summer has three strong superhero contenders, each poised to possibly take the crown as the best superhero movie committed to film: a bat, a spider, and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. A famed director returns to the franchise that cemented his name in genre history as one of the greatest directors of his... 

We’re back after an extended hiatus, but for how long? We spend the first part of this week’s show talking about some (fairly obvious) changes that are going on with the show. Please give us your feedback after listening, either by commenting below, sending an e-mail, or joining the discussion on our forums. Other than starting off on a negative note, Tim and Rafe talk about some of their... 

Ridley Scott may have been playing coy with fans and his new science-fiction film, but the ruse is up. For months Scott has evaded questions about whether Prometheus was related to his iconic 1979 science-fiction entry. As pictures have come out, fans have devoted themselves to the idea that this is a sequel or prequel to Scott’s own Alien. Now the first trailer is out for Prometheus and it’s pretty...
