Josh Reviews the film 2010: The Year We Make Contact!
On Monday I wrote about Arthur C. Clarke’s magnificent novel 2010: Odyssey Two. After completing the novel, I couldn’t resist taking another look at Peter Hyams’ film adaptation, with the revised title of 2010: The Year We Make Contact. (It’s a film I had o
Josh Reviews the novel 2010: Odyssey Two by Arthur C. Clarke!
Last week I wrote about Stanley Kubrick’s film 2001: A Space Odyssey, as well as the novel by Arthur C. Clarke! I enjoyed both of those so much that I decided to continue onwards with the rest of the series of novels (as well as the film sequel). 2010: Odyssey Two is one of my

On Monday I wrote about Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 film, 2001: A Space Odyssey. After re-watching that film last month, I was driven to pick up Arthur C. Clarke’s novel 2001: A Space Odyssey off my book-shelf to re-read that as well. I had read all four of Arthur C. ClarkeR

Twenty Years of Next Gen!! Josh Reviews The Sky’s The Limit
2007 was, believe it or not, the TWENTIETH anniversary of the launch of the very first Star Trek spin-off, Star Trek: The Next Generation. The pilot episode, “Encounter at Farpoint,” is terribly clunky when looked at today, but as a kid watching that very first episode I

Click here for a terrific three-essay series that delves into the first three Indiana Jones films. These are all really well-written pieces, filled to the brim with love for the cinematic adventures of Dr. Jones. Clever tourists wrecking the world one monument at a time. Don’
Adventures in Hollywood!
After my lengthy series of posts about Star Trek novels from last month, I bet people think that’s all I read. And, its true, sci-fi novels make up the bulk of my regular reading list. But every now and then I do branch out, and I’d like to share several great books I&
