Some Thoughts on the 2018 Oscars and their appreciation for SFF films
Yesterday was a day of decisions. Germany finally has a new (old) government after SPD members finally approved the coalition contract approximately half a year after the elections, the Swiss voted for keeping their TV license fee and Italy sadly … Continue reading

Star Trek Discovery – Still dishing out Shocking Twists (TM), but at least no one has eaten Saru this week

Star Trek Discovery – Now with even more Shocking Twists (TM) and a Side Order of Fried Rubberhead

There will be no golden age…
So Britain (well, Wales and England minus London) voted to leave the European Union today. I’m pretty pissed off about this, because I rather like Britain, have lived in London for a while and also like to visit on occasion. … Continue reading

Yet more Hugo Debate 2016 – and a bit about the Clarke Awards
The 2016 Hugo debate is still going on, which isn’t surprising, since last year it lasted all the way until the winners were announced in August, whereupon it morphed into a debate of the winning works. For my own contributions … Continue reading
