I rarely get star struck anymore, but I couldn't help myself this time. I recently attended the red carpet for the Spike TV Video Game Awards in Downtown LA, and Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill stopped by to chat for a few minutes. While trying to ignore memories of reading...

Singer Mya has just entered the final three on Dancing with the Stars, along with Kelly Osbourne and Donny Osmund and she's thrilled to be a part of this group.  Mya was being honored at US Weekly's Hot Hollywood party as one of the “Hot Steppers of the Year”, along...

Karl Urban plays Bones in the reboot of the Star Trek franchise, and if you are anything like me, you think he was perfect for the role.  In his upcoming film, Priest, he plays Black Hat, a warrior/priest turned vampire.  Scuttlebutt says that it's going to be a bit different...

On Monday night, I was invited to participate in the red carpet event celebrating Tuesday's release of the Star Trek DVD/Blu-ray.   Not only was it at the Griffith Observatory, somewhere I've always wanted to go, but the legendary Leonard Nimoy stopped to chat with me.  I couldn't help myself.  I...

I'm always thrilled to find fellow geek girls.  I watch Stargate Universe and I absolutely love it.  So you can imagine how excited I was to find out that Ming-Na is a geek!  Star Wars, Star Trek, Dungeons & Dragons...

I also got some info on what's coming up...

Amanda Tapping as Dr. Helen Magnus.

Just when you thought sci-fi legend Amanda Tapping couldn't get any cooler...for eleven years, she starred as Lt. Colonel Samantha Carter in Stargate SG-1.  Colonel Sam also appeared in twenty five episodes of Stargate...

I just saw a screening of The Road, and I have to say, I haven't been this affected by a film in a very long time.  Based on the best-selling book by Cormac McCarthy, The Road is the story of a man and his son (they are...

Misha Collins plays the angel Castiel on the hit show Supernatural.  And Castiel isn't your run of the mill, harps and flowing robes sort of angel.  Supernatural's higher beings kick some serious butt.  Castiel has dragged Dean (Jensen Ackles) out of hell, has no problem killing innocents for...

I love alien movies.  Really, it's the only genre that can still scare me.  I'm not saying that other spooky things don't give me pause or make me jump.  It's just that there is really no mystery left.  Sure, movies about serial killers make me triple check the lock on...

Stargate and Smallville fans alike went crazy when the news broke that Michael Shanks would be appearing as the beloved winged DC Comic Book character, Hawkman. Twitter has been abuzz with speculation about his appearance, and how the character would be handled. As a comic book and Stargate fan, I...

I just got a chance to chat with Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic, stars of the hit show Castle. And I have to say, if you're not watching it, you should be. Great chemistry, laugh-out-loud dialogue, and an awfully pretty cast. You've seen Katic on 24, Heroes and in the...

I normally write about film and television. And even then, I stay on the geekier side of things. But today I'm talking about my first love: theater. The subject is near and dear to my heart. I have a BFA in Musical Theater from Syracuse University, I met my husband...

The season premiere of The Big Bang Theory airs this Monday, and in honor of that comic event, I got a chance to chat with Simon Helberg, who plays nerdy engineer/clothes horse Howard Wolowitz. Not only is Helberg starring in one of the coolest shows on television (I'm a fan...I'll...

I just saw a screening of Quentin Tarantino's new film, Inglourious Basterds, Friday night. I'm not covering the film for my usual outlets, but after what I saw, I couldn't resist the urge to put my two cents in. I know this is a...

Science fiction/fantasy author Alan Dean Foster is known, not only for his prolific genre work, but for a stunning number of major motion picture novelizations, from Alien to Transformers to the newest version of Star Trek. Most recently, he's written the official movie novelization of Terminator: Salvation. I got a...

Bradley James plays Prince Arthur in the NBC show Merlin. Yes, I said "Prince". In this version, Arthur's father Uther (Anthony Head) is still alive. This British import is a very different take on the Arthur myth, with Merlin (Colin Morgan) and Arthur as...

It seems like Pixar just can't fail. Up is released May 29th and it's bound to be a hit. It rips your heart out, stomps on it, and then makes you laugh so hard your eyeliner will run. It easily grabbed a place in my top 10. The marketing department...

Nobody can deny that the new Star Trek film has silenced most of the critics. Fanboys (and girls) and newcomers alike have fallen in love with the re-imagining of Gene Roddenberry's beloved characters who "boldly go where no one has gone before"....

Emmy winner Michael Emerson plays the conniving Ben Linus on ABC's Lost, a character everyone loves to hate. The season finale airs Wednesday, May 13th and I got a chance to chat with Emerson about the show. He lets us in on his feelings about his character, making time for...
