More Droid 2, Droid X details surface in leaked commercials
Posted on June 14, 2010 | No CommentsWe've already gotten a pretty good look at both the Droid 2 and Droid X and some of their purported specs, and it looks like we can now fill in a few more gaps thanks to a set of leaked slides for some new Droid commercials. The most interesting of the lot is the slide / script for a Droid 2 commercial pictured above, which not only confirms an expectedly sci-fi-themed ad for the phone (Gattaca-esque, to be specific), but Exchange support and a 1GHz processor (not 750MHz, as previously rumored). There's comparatively fewer details in the pair of Droid X commercials, but they do offer yet more confirmation of a 4.3-inch screen, and our first indication of a new EyeCon app that will apparently come pre-loaded on the phone and let you access and control media on your home network -- the script for the ad actually mentions a "720 dpi" screen, but we're going to chalk that up to adspeak rather than Motospeak. Hit up the link below for a closer look at the complete set.

Stargate Universe episode 113 Faith Trailer [update]
Posted on April 16, 2010 | No CommentsTonight’s Stargate Universe episode – Faith – seems like it might be a classic Stargate episode. The team finds a random Earth-like planet that’s seemingly normal. But there has to be something wrong with it. Either it’s all a dream some sort of simulation controlled by an aliening being. Either way, a redshirt crew [...] -
Yes~! There will be Independence Day sequels, Will Smith will be all over them
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No CommentsNice, another sci-fi movie story. 'tis a grand day, indeed. The story is a two-parter: one, there will be an Independence Day 2 and Independence Day 3. That's insane enough. Two: Will Smith will be in both. Loving the creativity coming out of Hollywood these days.

Battlefield: Earth writer says sorry to all of Planet Earth
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No CommentsContrition is a wonderful thing. Now, I'm not the biggest sci-fi guy here, but even I know that Battlefield: Earth ranks among the worst films ever created—some would even say that it is the single worst movie in the history of cinema. That may well be, but the gentleman who penned the original script has now, on the record, officially apologized to mankind for helping to create the movie. That's called integrity, folks.

Toyota’s bad luck the result of cosmic rays?

Should we even bother going after cyber-criminals?
Posted on March 5, 2010 | No CommentsAt what point do you stop trying to track and prosecute cyber-criminals? Obviously, you can't let criminals run around willy-nilly, but when you look at the resources involved in bringing those guys to justice—and are you really nabbing the right guys in the first place?—it's worth at least talking about. Is fighting cyber-crime about as futile as fighting the war on drugs?

Posted on December 30, 2009 | No Comments"Baby, let's blow this popsicle stand." That's the snappy dialogue you can expect to see in the screenplay I'm writing about a man who takes up Escape From Earth 2012's offer. You see, there's a company out called there EcsapeEarth2012 that's offering you the chance to leave this dumb planet before everything explodes in an orgy of stardust and iPhone cases come December 21, 2012.

An asteroid almost smashed into Earth, and we only knew about it 15 hours before it happened
Posted on November 12, 2009 | No CommentsDid you hear the news? An asteroid passed within 8,700 miles of the planet on Friday. The craziest thing is that scientists only knew about it 15 hours before it flew by. So if you have any confidence that this planet is safe from giant space objects smashing into the surface, possibly destroying all life in the process, well, think again.

Nokia N900 ad suggests a history of mental illness
Posted on November 10, 2009 | No CommentsThe DROID might have started us down the road of dark sci-fi phone ads, but this new Nokia N900 spot takes things to the disturbing next level. We have no idea of what any of this means -- and we're not too sure Nokia really wants to suggest that its new flagship device is the cellphone manifestation of Twitchy McSanity here. You'll see what we mean -- video after the break.
P.S.- Are we the only ones who see this as a nightmarish dystopian remake of Pump Up The Volume? Is that just us? Okay.Continue reading Nokia N900 ad suggests a history of mental illness

Second Verizon DROID commercial stealth attacks America
Posted on November 3, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, Motorola, Verizon Wireless
Looks like those iDon't ads aren't all Verizon has in store to promote the DROID: this new spot, called "Stealth," just leaked to BGR. Again, we can't help but notice that Big Red's taking a nerdier sci-fi approach to things with these ads, but that seems to suit the DROID, if you ask us. Video after the break.
