Some day, it just doesn't pay to inform others on what history holds for Science Fiction ... but that doesn't make our genre any less charming! Truth is: it doesn't pay at all, and I still do it! For now, it's only three entries; but as my library continues to grow, I suspect it'll be much larger this time next year!

I think the biggest reason that I admire what Aliens did following on the heels of the first Alien picture is that it seamlessly re-invigorated the franchise by being true to the original but seeking out almost entirely new narrative territory on its own. The two films are uniquely different, but watch them together and marvel at how they complement (or is that compliment?) one another. It's genius filmmaking done back-to-back nearly a decade apart.

Wow. That first Robocop movie? Paul Verhoeven's classic take on man versus machine? Just wow. If you haven't seen it, then I revoke your right to call yourself a Geek. Get off your duff, get down to the local video store, and get it done. Your move, creep.

I don't know about you, but I certainly can't imagine what quality genre entertainment would be without the participation of the legendary Terry O'Quinn. Even today, he continues to pop up in the most unlikely places, but here's my tip to Mr. O'Quinn: stay away from convention drama. It's just not in your best interest. Genre fans love you best!

You'll have to pardon a very un-Sci-Fi film reference (Stuart Saves His Family) to headline July 13's entry into On This Day In Science Fiction History, but it's late, I'm tired, and it was the best I could come up with entirely in the moment. Whatever. However, don't pass up this chance to take a gander at what lies in our memory banks for this day; methinks you'll be impressed.

Whoa, what a manly day, indeed! Bits and bytes on Escape from New York, the Mad Max franchise, Universal Soldier ... and did I mention my own brave new world vampire saga Rainville (which is pretty much in the same vein) is now available in softcover and ebook formats at Amazon? Testosterone does indeed rule the day!
