Video: Star Wars text crashes down on Earth like alphabetical asteroids
Posted on February 1, 2010 | No CommentsI have NO idea how the text from the opening credits of Star Wars made its way to our galaxy. It’s supposed to all be far, far away! And what are the odds that it’d find its way into Earth’s gravitational pull, only to come raining down on an unassuming suburb? If only the Starship [...] -

This Star Trek scene makes no sense – and that’s a good thing
Posted on December 7, 2009 | No Comments
Take a scene from Star Trek: The Next Generation, replace the actual spoken words with words that match the movements of the actors’ mouths pretty well, and you have this.
It’s actually entertaining, I promise. There’s some NSFW language – just an FYI.

Ladies, don’t let guys have all the fun – Star Trek perfume is here
Posted on December 4, 2009 | No Comments
When Star Trek cologne was unveiled to the world in late July, the odds were officially stacked against females. How in the world would they be able to resist any man wearing Star Trek cologne? It can't be done. Well, that playing field has been absolutely leveled with the recent introduction of Star Trek perfume.

Captain Kirk’s missing scene from JJ’s Star Trek
Posted on November 24, 2009 | No Comments
William Shatner did have a part in the new Star Trek as it turns out. It wasn't a major role like Leonard Nimoy's, but rather a recording that Nimoy's Spock would give to the younger Spock at the end of the film. It obviously never made the film but I somewhat wish it had.

NASA turns iPhone into chemical sensor, can an App Store rejection be far away?
Posted on November 13, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Apple, Accessories
People have been trying to turn cellphones into medical and atmospheric scanners for some time now, but when it's NASA stepping up to the plate with a little device to monitor trace amounts of chemicals in the air, it's hard to not start thinking we might finally have a use for all those tricorder ringtones. Developed by a team of researchers at the Ames Research Center led by Jing Li, the device is a small chip that plugs into the bottom of an iPhone and uses 16 nanosensors to detect the concentration of gasses like ammonia, chlorine, and methane. To what purpose exactly this device will serve and why the relatively closed iPhone was chosen as a development platform are mysteries we're simply not capable of answering. Damn it, man, we're bloggers not scientists!

Well, Blu-ray.com takes Blu-ray releases and grades them on four levels: Movie, Video, Audio, and Extras. The upcoming Star Trek release scored a perfect five out of five in each category.

Video: Wil Wheaton’s Star Trek cameo
Posted on November 5, 2009 | No Comments
Did you know that Will Wheaton was in JJ's Star Trek? He just went public with the secret cameo voice overs and details the entire experience on his personal blog. If you're even the slightest Star Trek fan, click over and read the whole thing. It's awesome to me that he was so honored and humbled to do just voice over work in the new movie even though he played such a major part in introducing Star Trek to a new audience. The clip after the jump is apparently the only one in the film that's his unaltered voice.e.

Whatever happened to the Klingons, anyway
Posted on October 28, 2009 | No Comments
There was one race conspicuously missing from the J.J. Abrams Star Trek film: the Klingons. They were filmed, but the scene with them questioning Nero was cut for whatever reason. The good news is, in this day and age deleted scenes rarely stay deleted for long. Case in point, SpikeTV just revealed a deleted scene where we do get to see the Klingons, and they ain't happy with Nero. This is of course a marketing ploy, since there's a special edition coming out on two DVD's and Blu-ray this November 17th.

Star Trek communicator cloth one step closer to reality, still won’t beam you up
Posted on October 1, 2009 | No Comments
Many gadgets we use today were inspired by the fictional gadgets in Star Trek. Communicators inspired cell phones, tablet computers were inspired by the datapads that crew members carried, the medical scanners like Bones used in sick bay are becoming a reality as well.
And now some Finns are hard at work at making the badge communicators happen, by making your clothes into the antenna such a thing would require.
