STAR TREK
Update: Friday's box office numbers officially make this latest STAR TREK adventure
the largest box office opener of the franchise. The film pulled in an estimated $24.0
million on its first full day of showings across the country and when combined with
the $7 million it took in from its Thursday night debuts, Paramount Pictures has a
domestic tally of $31.0 million.
The previous record holder was STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT, which pulled in $30.7
million on November 22, 1996. Insider speculation has the film to doubling that
mark by tomorrow's box office report with the Abram's relaunch expected to pull
in $67+ million.
HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE
After being delayed from last November, Warner Bros.' HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD
PRINCE, the sixth installment of J.K. Rowling's best-selling adventure series is finally
being released in just over two months, and the very first television commercial has
been seen and posted on YouTube, but you can watch it at the link below.
HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE opensin conventional and IMAX theaters on
May 15.

BILLY SMOKE
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Jeffrey Nachmanoff (Traitor) will direct BILLY
SMOKE, an adaptation of the Oni Press comic book, for Warner Bros. Matthew Fox (SPEED
RACER, LOST) is attached to star in the assassin thriller, with Basil Iwanyk's Thunder
Road producing along with Oni's Eric Gitter, who is producing through the company's
film arm, Closed on Mondays Entertainment.
The story centers on an elite hit man who is nearly killed during a botched job.
He realizes that his only way to find redemption is to rid the world of all assassins.
The comic book series, written by B. Clay Moore and illustrated by Eric Kim, will be
published by Oni this year.
SATURDAY, MAY 9, 2009>br?
FLASH FORWARD
According to the Hollywood Reporter, ABC has officially picked up drama FLASH FORWARD.
The show, which already is being promoted on the network, received a 13-episode order
Friday night. Based on Robert J. Sawyer's novel, the Joseph Fiennes-starring series
chronicles the aftermath of a global event in which everyone in the world blacks out
for 2 minutes, 17 seconds and has mysterious visions of six months into the future.
David Goyer and Brannon Braga co-wrote the pilot for "Flash," which Goyer directed.
WEEKEND BOX OFFICE
This weekend should be a battle for the #1 science fiction picture -- bringing the new
STAR TREK movie up against X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE.
STAR TREK pulled in an estimated at $7 million in an early launch fueled by "preview"
performances scheduled at most of its 3,800 locations between 7 p.m.-midnight Thursday.
The practice of adding prior-night grosses to Friday grosses has been criticized by
distribution execs from some rival studios. But it continues a recent trend, after
Par last May bow "Iron Man" with Thursday showtimes and lumped those grosses into
its Friday tally for the Marvel Studios-produced tentpole.
Last week, Fox unspooled its X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE with more than 1,500 midnight
Thursday screenings to fetch more than $4.5 million in witching-hour coin. WOLVERINE
rung up $85 million domestically over its entire first weekend and was positioned to
cross $200 million in worldwide boxoffice by the end of Friday.
INVASION OF PRIVACY
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Christopher Lee has signed on to the cast of
IINVASION OF PRIVACY for U.K.'s Hammer Films. Lee will act alongside Hillary Swank
and Jeffrey Dean Morgan in the film that centers on a woman who moves into a Brooklyn
apartment, after leaving her husband, and discovers she's being watched. The film,
previously titled THE RESIDENT, will mark the directorial debut of Antti J. Jokinen.
No production schedule was given.

DEAD AIR TO SCREEN AT CANNES/FANGORIA CONVENTION
Press Release:
Los Angeles, CA - May 2, 2009 - DEAD AIR, the Bill Moseley and Patricia Tallman
starrer chronicling a radio team's fight to stay alive and on-air in the face of
a bioterrorist attack, will screen at both the Cannes Film Market and Fangoria's
Weekend of Horrors in New York City over the next few weeks. These special screenings
launch the film's major sales push following its completion this February.
DEAD AIR, directed by television star and horror film veteran Corbin Bernsen, and
written by Kenneth Yakkel, marks a rare turn for lead actor Bill Moseley, who plays
a heroic family man instead of his usual role as a villain. Moseley plays Logan
Burnhardt, a hard-edged talk radio host whose on-air bluster is put to the test
when faced with a real emergency he can't talk his way out of. The film's story
echoes horror favorites like 28 Days Later and classic George Romero zombie movies,
but sets the action in a modern context amid heightened fears of international terrorism.
"We wanted to make a movie that wasn't just a maniacs-on-the-loose-killing-everyone
movie, although we certainly have that, but one that strikes a deeper chord of what
people are really scared about today," says Bernsen. "You take swine flu, take 9/11,
whip that together into a real doomsday scenario, and that's the kind of event Dead
Air explores."
Although the film depicts an attack on the US, universal concerns about terrorism
should help it play well to overseas audiences. Furthermore, despite the US being
the victim country, the film is not unabashedly flag-waving, as US bioweapons research
is blamed as inadvertently providing weapons to the film's terrorist villains.
DEAD AIR is represented internationally by Sean Haley of MultiVisionnaire Pictures.
The Cannes screening will take place on Monday, May 18 at 11:30 AM, at Palais D of
the Cannes Film Festival.
The New York screening at Fangoria's Weekend of Horrors will take place on June 6
at 6:00 PM, at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. Fangoria is the leading name
in horror-cinema journalism, and the convention is expected to attract 3000-7000 fans
over its three days. Josh Feinman, a co-star of Moseley's in the film, will be in
attendance.
RANGER REPORTS
BRUCE BOXLEITNER
Ranger Anne writes that Bruce Boxleitner made a return visit to CHUCK this past
Monday night (4/27), in the season finale "Chuck Versus the Ring." The episode
featured the wedding of Chuck Bartowski's sister Ellie to Devon (aka Captain
Awesome), and how evil Ted Roark & his agents from Fulcrum wanted to stop the wedding
to steal the Intercept (Chuck), with the threat of killing Ellie. Bruce reprised
his role of Devon's father Woody (from earlier in the season).
PAT TALLMAN
Ranger Morjana reports that the SciFi Channel is airing STAR RUNNERS on Saturday,
June 13 at 9pm, and it's repeated Sunday June 14 at 1:30am. According to TrekTrak.com,
STAR RUNNERS was a failed pilot for USA, and that Patricia Tallman co-starred in
it -- from 1998!
Patty is one of my favorite B5 people -- so it will be fun to see her on screen
again -- mark your calendars.

DISCUSSION TOPIC - STAR TREK
We have about one month before the new STAR TREK bursts upon the big screen. There
have been a lot of trailers and pictures about the upcoming movie. Personally, I
can't wait to see it. I loved the original STAR TREK, but it got a bit threadbare
at the end. With the various spin-offs, it will be good to get back to the basics
and learn more about the origins of the characters we all loved. Chris Pine and
Zachary Quinto seem perfect in their new roles. How do you feel about having a new
STAR TREK soon? Are you looking forward to it? Do you intend going to see it?
Send in your comments to sgbruckner@aol.com. I'll post your selections our
discussion page for all
readers to share. I'll post some of my comments in my blog -- see below.
BABYLON PODCAST
Welcome to Show #154!
Tim has joined the modern Internet age, and has a real Internet connection! His
FiOS line makes him sound a lot closer than the transfer point off Io, doesn’t it?
Jeffrey waxes poetic about “Erth Day” and having two shuttles on the launch pad at
the same time… and after that who knows where we went. Can something really run off
the rails if you’re not sure the rails were ever there to begin with?
Deep Geeking: This week, the Deep Geeking covers “The Very Long Night of Londo
Mollari”. The introspective journey that Londo takes, and the one that Lennier is
about to take, all start here.
Discussion: Welcome to the Dead Tech segment of The Babylon Podcast!
Paul in Vegas comments on the Crusade soundtrack (he didn’t like it), and waxes
nostalgic over the B5 laserdiscs, which leads to Summer’s rant about WB’s handling
of the laserdisc releases and into George’s email about laserdisc players; Jeffrey
still has a (working?) Betamax deck and wonders if B5 episodes were released on Beta…
how many dead formats exist that B5 was released on? Mike thinks he can find old
RCA 2" tape cart promos for B5, and Summer seriously considers asking Mike to
download them, but we’ll settle for picture proof of existence.
Jahi in Ithaca liked Gary Cole’s portrayal of Gideon in Crusade, and had no problems
with “actor baggage” from other roles… there are a lot of people out there who want
more Crusade, a bit of story closure no matter what the medium. What could be the
chances of having a new trilogy of novels based in the Crusade universe?
Jeffrey is frightened at the prospect of 3 more years of doing the podcast, but
it’s only because he didn’t realize just how much material is still left to cover,
and potential interview subjects to track down and talk to!
Second Life Info: FarPoint Media’s Second Life space is now the penthouse suite
of Third Life Books. You can find the castle at

and more!
Babylon 5 Information Gathering: If you know of a dead or abandoned B5 related
website that may be in need of a new home, let Summer know! Maybe we can mirror
it here or house it on a sister site.

SYNOPSIS
On the fourth season of THE CLOSER, murderers are not the only ones giving Brenda
a hard time. An ambitious newspaper reporter interferes as he tries to get a story
on the Priority Homicide Division, resulting in disaster for the squad. Although
Brenda and her team chalk up a string of successes (including catching a child’s
killer, a drive-by shooter and an arsonist who sets L.A.’s Griffith Park ablaze),
the reporter’s unflattering tell-all marks the end of the PHD. But viewers shouldn’t
ever count Brenda out. She brings her staff to the newly formed Major Crimes Division
for assignments with expanded jurisdiction that extends to con artists, kidnappers,
predators and, of course, killers. All of L.A.’s worst are going to meet L.A’s best.
REVIEW
This is one of those series that just gets better the longer it is on the air. I have grown
to love Brenda and all of her quirkyness. Kyra Sedgwick is just perfect for this character
and this role. As good as she is, her supporting cast is equally as good. The chemistry of
all the characters is a marvel to watch.
This season you see Brenda solve more cases and she finally gets married as well. I am always
surprised by this series. Unlike so many cop shows, the quality is in the writing. Money
doesn't go into special effects -- it goes into quality writing and production.
If you haven't seen the previous seasons of this fabulous show, you may want to start at the
beginning and see these relationship grow.
SCOOBY-DOO WHERE ARE YOU VOLUME 2: BUMP IN THE NIGHT
Available on DVD: May 5
Official website: www.kidswb.com
Vol. 2 sniffs out and serves up Episodes 5-8 – in the order aired – of Scooby-Doo’s
original Saturday morning series. When prize-winning show dogs begin to disappear,
the crafty canine becomes a Decoy for a Dognapper. A spell-casting ghost goes a-haunting
until Daphne, Velma, Freddy and Shaggy figure out What the Hex Going On? It’s far from
all quiet on the set when Daphne’s moviemaker uncle hires the gang as extras in a
horror flick and they soon learn you Never Ape an Ape Man. And then what could be
scarier than exploring an abandoned amusement park with a short-circuited robot
named Charley in charge in Foul Play in Funland. For cheerful chills and frightful
laughs galore, this is a rrrun-rrriled ride!
FREAKAZOID SEASON 2
Available: April 21, 2009
Official website: www.kidswb.com
Synopsis:
Dexter Douglas is a mild-mannered teenager who, while logged onto the Internet one
Christmas, is thrust into a horrible crash on the information superhighway and
transformed into an electrifying superhero. He's average, predictable, the middle
of the bell curve and the center of the silent majority, which most consider completely
dull and boring; the type of person who just blends into the crowd. However, all this
changes when he turns into the Freakazoid, a lightening haired superhero who wears red
underwear who uses his new abilities to fight evil and do battle with villains such as
the Lobe. That is, unless Cosgrove, his best friend and chief of police, can suggest
something better to do. With his many trusted sidekicks, his fabulous Freakalair and
his girlfriend Steph by his side, he?s ready to save the day; that is, unless there's
something better on TV.
TINY TOON ADVENTURES: SEASON 1, Volume 2
Available: April 28, 2009
Official website: www.wbkids.com
Synopsis:
This April, BBC Video brings the world’s most popular car entertainment show to DVD
for the first time in North America with the 3-disc release Top Gear 10. One of
the top rated shows on BBC America and BBC Canada and broadcast in more than 100
countries, Top Gear follows hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May
as they attempt some of the most ambitious, and often outrageous, adventures on
four wheels including a race through the Kalahari Desert in three 20-year-old
clunkers and an attempt to break Sir Richard Branson’s record by crossing the
treacherous English Channel in a fleet of amphibious cars. Rounding out the team
is the silent and mysterious racing driver The Stig, who pushes cars and celebrities
to their limits on the Top Gear test track.
REVIEW
If you enjoy cars and British humor, I've got a show for you. TOP GEAR, is one of
those shows where you can easily get caught up in the humor and hijinks of the hosts.
Highlights of this DVD are:
- A roadtrip through Europe to find the greatest driving road ever in a Lambogini,
Porche 911 and an Aston Martin (so much funnier than it sounds)
- Three attempts at making an amphibious car
- A race between a fighter jet and the fastest production car in the world
- Watch the three hosts cross the uncrossable desert in three african cars that
cost $1000.
- See the birth of Motorhome racing
The show is VERY diverse -- crossing generational boundaries as the three hosts wander
the world to bring you absolutely stunning adventures.
And yes, this is season 10 of the series. So if you like what you see on this series,
you'll want to look for the previous seasons -- just to see what you've missed.

BABYLON 5 MUSIC VIDEOS AND TRIBUTES
I found this message on the Babylon 5 moderated newsgroup this morning and just
had to post it so that others might enjoy the marvelous music videos created by
John Hudgens.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
As some of you may know, I was hired by Joe Straczynski back in the
day to create Babylon 5 music videos for him to use at science fiction
conventions, and later to promote the show to networks. Eight were
produced over the run of the series, not including the memorial videos
I did later for Rick Biggs and Andreas Katsulas.
For the longest time, the only way to see these was if Joe or I showed
them at a convention, but now, after numerous requests from fans over
the years, Joe has given me permission me to post these online.
- This is the extended version that I did for Andreas' widow ater the
original cut was released on the net. It's never been seen online
until now.
For those of you who've never seen these, I hope you enjoy them - and
for those that have (and emailed me many times over the years about
releasing them), I hope they're as good as you remember. Working with
Joe on these videos was one of the highlights of my career, and I'll
be forever grateful to him for the doors these have opened for me. I'm
proud to have them on my resume.
