Four years ago, J.J. Abrams reinvigorated the “Star Trek” franchise with a dynamic, fun take on Kirk, Spock and the rest of the Enterprise crew.
While not marking as significant a step to boldly go where few science fiction sequels have gone before, Abrams makes a very entertaining one with “Star Trek Into Darkness.” More

2013 FF: By 2009, “Star Trek” had become too familiar and too dated and the random movies lacked that sense of wonder and amazement that science fiction fans were seeking. Enter J.J. Abrams, who decided he was going to do what was starting to become unthinkable — he was going to make “Star Trek” cool again.
Forget everything you thought you knew about “Star Trek” and beam down to your local theater to see the latest take on the adventures of Kirk, Spock and company which is poised to be the movie event of the summer, if not the entire year. More

If you’re a “Resident Evil” fan and have grown increasingly more frustrated with the live-action films that may as well be subtitled “Milla Jovovich Rockz!!!” some welcome relief has come with “Resident Evil: Damnation,” which is easily the best cinematic installment of the series and despite being a computer generated film, features better acting and a more faithful spin on one of the most successful video games franchises ever.

Abrams and Benedict Cumberbatch (Back L-R) Noel Clark, producer Bryan Burk, actor Karl Urban, writer Alex Kurtzman, writer Roberto Orci and producer Damon Lindelof attend the UK Premiere of “Star Trek Into Darkness” at The Empire Cinema on May 2, 2013 in London, England.
The stars of the year’s most highly anticipated science fiction film “Star Trek Into Darkness” came out May 2 for the London premiere. From actually paying attention to these now, I know how rare it is for the whole cast to be together after filming so I thought it was pretty cool for fans to see all of the significant cast make it out for this premiere.
Here’s some of the pictures from the big event. More

While it’s fine to disagree on politics, religion, sports, the sexiest woman in the world and the ridiculous non-holding call in the Superbowl (yes, I’m still bitter and no, I’m not gonna let it go) there is one thing we can all agree on — The Empire Strikes Back is the best Star Wars film. No other answers will be accepted. Thanks.

As he’s beginning the promotional rounds for “Star Trek Into Darkness,” a sequel to one of the better reboots in the last decade, J.J. Abrams is in the unfamiliar territory of people more curious about his next project than the one he’s just completed. Course it’s not every day you get tabbed to take over one of the most revered franchises in movie history.
I’ve said it before, but there was no better choice to handle the next era of Star Wars films than Abrams, a brilliant filmmaker who excels at exceeding audience expectations.
In a recent interview with Playboy (who knew they can still get exclusives these days?) Abrams shared some insight on his direction for what is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated sequels ever. More

Jack (TOM CRUISE) patrols the ruins of the Empire State Building in “Oblivion.”
I feel it’s only fair to let the rest of the 2013 cinematic offerings know that there are only nine slots available in my Top 10 Films of 2013 now that I’ve seen “Oblivion,” the brilliant new sci-fi adventure starring Tom Cruise. More
