Could Moonlight Rise From The Dead As Theatrical Movie

Many fans were shocked and somewhat ticked off last year when the romantic horror detective thriller Moonlight got canceled by CBS Television.

The series centred on detective Mick St. John (Alex O’Loughlin), who could solve crimes committed by vampires. He was dealing with his own issues with an ex, Coraline (Shannyn Sossamon), who turned him without his consent, and a 400-year-old vamp (Jason Dohring), who butted in with underworld politics. Of course vampire politics aside, the main crux of this show was the burdening romance between Vampire Mick and human love interest Beth Turner who was played by British actor Sophia Myles.

Before “Fan Films” There Was ‘The Fanzine’ – Star Trek & Star Wars Fanzine Collection Acquired By University Of Iowa

Before loyal fanboys and fangirls donned replica Starfleet uniforms, wielded toy lightsabers or squeezed their ample flesh into Batman tights, capes and cowls to bring forth the frenetic fan film, there was the pulpy goodness of the fanzine.

Michael Shanks On The Shifting Nature Of Stargate

The new issue of Stargate Magazine features an exclusive interview with Michael Shanks who is best known to fans of Stargate SG1 as Daniel Jackson. We have a few excerpts of this interview below, which have been provided to us by the good folk at Titan books.

Stargate Magazine: Since it’s been a while, how happy were you with how the two Stargate movies turned out?

Michael Shanks: I was quite content with the process of both. Continuum seems to be the favored one by the people involved. It benefited from the fact that we didn’t have to resolve any ongoing arc issues. The first one [The Ark of Truth] carried a lot of baggage in terms of resolving a two-year story arc. We built up this enemy to such a degree, there was so much story to tell, and they were such a fierce antagonist that to get rid of them over two hours was a bit of a conundrum. It seemed to be a bit of a quick convenient fix to have this device that you magically open and the bad guys go away. Continuum could stand on it’s own. It was a different story and there wasn’t so much exposition. Continuum also seemed to be a lot more fun. The visuals were quite fantastic, with filming in the Arctic and the use of the jet planes. The return of Richard Dean Anderson is always fun, as well.
