SyFy bringing Alien Nation into the new millennium
June 30th, 2009 under Syfy. [ Comments: none ]



SyFy (formerly Sc iFi) is updating the cult movie and it spinoff TV series, Alien Nation for the new millennium according to Variety. Tim Minear, who worked on Angel and Firefly, is developing the newest version of the franchise that will take place 20 years after the Aliens landed in the Pacific Northwest.

By the time the show begins, some time in the 2020s, the alien population has multiplied from a few thousand to 3.5 million. And much of the “newcomers” live their own segregated existence, in what Minear compares to the North African ghettos in France.
“You can take (the original ‘Alien Nation’) a step forward and really do a show that encompasses the clash of civilizations, and the idea of a ghettoized minority,” he said. “You can touch on racism, terrorism, assimilation, immigration. And there’s room for satire.”

If the new show is anything like the one that aired for Fox, I really hope Tim Minear creates a show that SyFy winds up picking up because I loved that show so much! Plus I like that they are not remaking it, but updating it. I am so sick of remakes and thankfully that is not the road that they are going down!

BTWF roles: Jeff Goldblum in Death Wish
June 30th, 2009 under Before They Were Famous, Jeff Goldblum. [ Comments: none ]


Before Jeff Goldblum was rumored to be dead, he had a Death Wish. How weird is it to see the 21 year old with all that hair (kind of like Sanjaya’s) in his first movie back in 1974 as Freak #1!

Jeff Goldblum accepts that he really is dead
June 30th, 2009 under Comedy Central, Jeff Goldblum, Not Dead. [ Comments: none ]


Last week there was story from Global Associated News was heard all over the world reporting that the Earth Girls Are Easy star Jeff Goldblum had fallen 60′ to his death in New Zealand. His publicist immediately squashed the rumor with a statement saying The Fly did not die and he was still alive. That wasn’t good enough to prove that he wasn’t going through The Big Chill, so he made an appearance on Comedy Central’s Colbert Nation to prove that he would still be around to light fireworks on Independence Day. But by the end of his appearance he accepted the fact that he had gone to the big Jurassic Park in the sky.
Seriously if Jeff Goldblum did more funny stuff like that, I would actually watch his movies and TV shows. So on that note, don’t forget to watch him on USA’s Law & Order: Criminal Intent every Sunday at 9p for his final episodes since he is no longer with us. Oh and he is also filming Morning Glory with Diane Keaton who almost joined him yesterday after an on-set accident.
On a non-Jeff Goldblum note, Stephen Colbert is such a freaking genius!!! How brilliant was that bit?
Finally if you see any stories from Global Associated News about a death of a celebrity dying in some horrific way, don’t believe it because the site allows you to create fakes news stories.
