Welcome to another episode of SFP-NOW in which Marx and Ian discuss their pick of genre television shows and the occasional movies. For this episode, Marx provides his final thoughts on the first season of Disney's animated X-Men 97 series, which pretty much picked the story up from where it left off when the original X-Men series ended. Also discussed is the new Dark Matter series on Apple TV, which is another mystery box-style series that involves alternate universes and lots of hightened drama. To close out this episode. Ian gives his reviews and thoughts on GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE and GODZILLA X KONG: THE NEW EMPIRE. Given that both films mention an Ice Age and have the words Empire in them. We ponder the question of whether Hollywood is trying to forewarn us about a new ICE AGE and a pending FROZEN EMPIRE.

Welcome to another episode of the SFP-NOW and a change of Format as they guys look at putting out two shows every couple of weeks instead of one every month.  For this episode, Ian and Marx discuss Doctor Who and Star Trek: Discovery and we talk briefly about the renewal of a certain Netflix series.  We start with our thoughts about the opening two episodes of the newly rebooted Doctor Who. Marx and I agree that the silliness of ‘Space Babies' was fun, but we felt that ‘The Devil's Chord' was the strongest of the two episodes.  When it comes to Star Trek: Discovery we both agree that this series has probably been the strongest and it is in part thanks to the writers lending from a previous Star Trek story. However, we both still feel that the single story over one season model is perhaps not the right model for Star Trek.  Finally, Ian shares his thoughts and goes Ape about ‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes' and somehow manages to do so without giving out to many spoilers. 

Welcome to another exciting episode of the SFP-NOW reviews show. Having returned from their epic weekend at Dragon Con. Marx and Jeff have a fair bit to share about their weekend of panels as well as good news about their book sales. As far as TV reviews go. We take a less is more approach this week as we discuss Ahsoka, which continues the adventures of the popular character from Star Wars: Clone Wars and Rebels. In fact Ian says that it might as well be called Rebels season 5 because it uses many of the popular characters from that series and kind of picks up from where that series left off. We also take a rather critical look at The Wheel of Time, which once again suffers from some rather iffy pacing when it comes to unraveling the story. And finally. Marx and Jeff sing loudly about the new Netflix drama One Piece, which is a feature adaptation of the popular long-running anime and manga series created by Eiichiro Oda. This show follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy and his pirate crew as they search for the ultimate treasure known as "One Piece" in a vast and colorful world filled with pirates, marines, and powerful devil fruit users.

Welcome to a somewhat belated episode of the SFP-NOW reviews show. After what has been a little break. Marx, Jeff and Ian return to talk about a host of shows as well an epic chat that goes over the final four episodes of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds in which Ian and Marx hold a slightly different view point to Jeff. We kick things off by catching up on what everyone has been up to before diving into the reviews. First up Jeff talks about Twisted Metal, which he claims is one of the funniest science fiction shows to come out in awhile. Marx having not seen the whole series largely agrees with this assessment. We move things quickly along as Ian tries his best to give as spoiler free review of Babylon 5: The Road Home as possible, but adds that the film has inspired him to re-watch the original series through again. Before getting onto Star Trek. Ian briefly talks about Apple TV's adaptation of Foundation and says while it is not for everyone. It does do a pretty good job of adapting something that is difficult to do given the epic told in the books. To finish off the show. The guys engage in a Star Trek: Strange New Worlds chat that takes up at least 45 minutes. During this chat there is a spirited debate about the morality of a certain episode between Ian, Marx and Jeff who do not share the same perspective. So if you'd like to hear the discussion and comment. Hit play and tune in for this episode as it will be the last one we put out until around 20 September.

Welcome to another episode of the SFP-NOW reviews show. This episode sees us talk about a number of TV shows and movies. We kick off the show with our review of Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny and then move on to the new season of Almost Paradise, which dropped last weekend on Amazon's Freevee channel. The show, which stars Christian Kane as retired DEA Agent Alex Walker is a rare blend of action and comedy and is somewhat of a throwback to TV shows that populated the networks throughout the 1980s and 90s. Jeff thinks this show is Christian Kane's best work to date. Whereas Ian loves the blend of action and comedy. Next up Marx talks about Silo now that he has viewed most of the show and expresses some concern as to were the show might go in its second season now that one of the key mysteries has been revealed. Next up Jeff gives us his thoughts on Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One and enjoyed how the film uses A.I. as the main part of its story. He was particularly impressed with Hayley Atwell in her role as the thief Grace who gets in over her head with a certain group of IMF agents. We round out the show by talking about Heels, which is a show about a group of professional wrestlers as they struggle to keep their franchise going. Heels stars Stephen Amell who is best known for his role of Oliver Queen in CW's Arrow. And finishing off. Jeff, Marx, and Ian give their thoughts on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds episodes Charades and Lost In Translation. So tune in. Zone out and have fun while we take you through a variety of TV shows with some really bad puns and awful jokes.

Welcome to the sixth episode of The new SFP-NOW review show in Which Marx Pyle and I discuss all of our favorite TV Shows and movies. We kick this week's episode off with Marx's review of the new Dungeons & Dragons movie in which Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, and Regé-Jean Page kick some dragon butt. Marx feels that this version of the film is a big improvement over the 2000 version. As it pulls in more from the various different settings that feature in the D&D Table Top Games. Our D&D Chat sort of moves over into a movie discussion in general where we discuss the DC movies and how all the different films seem to be somewhat disjointed from each other. As the movie chat moves toward Superman. We move into discussing Superman & Lois and do a quick catch-up on some of the more recent episodes. From Superman. We move on to Gotham Knights, which sees the group get called The Gotham Knights for the first time. We discuss some of the mythology that this show is using from the comics and how much fun the writers seem to be having with The Court of Owls. Boldly moving on we chat a little about episodes 7, 8 & 9 of Picard but focus mostly on the episode 'Vox' in which it is revealed that Jack is connected to The Borg. We chat a lot about the closing few moments of the episode in which we see The Enterprise - D for the first time in nearly 30 years and how that made us feel. We also chat about our disappointment at the death of the dipshit from Chicago. Staying in the science fiction realm. We move on to The Mandalorian's penultimate episode in which Grogu gets his own robot body suit. And have a bit of a laugh about some of the things we can see Grogu saying with his new toy other than Yes and No. We also talk about the return of Moff Gideon and discuss whether there could be a traitor among The Mandalorians. The final TV Show we discuss is the new series The Power, which premiered on Amazon earlier in the month. We talk about some of the show's more interesting characters and chat about how it will likely flip the tables by showing us a world in which women become more dominant in this world thanks to the Powers that they seem to have developed as teenagers.

Happy Friday and welcome to another episode of SFP- NOW's ongoing reviews show. In this episode, Ian & Marx give their initial thoughts on the new CW series Gotham, which is a show set in a universe where Batman has been killed. Our initial thoughts are that the show is kind of meh and has room for improvement. So tune in to hear exactly what we have to say. Moving on. We also give our first thoughts on School Spirits and focus on the show's pilot episode 'My So-Called Death', which introduces us to the tone and characters of the series. In this discussion, Marx compares this show to 'Dead Like Me' only with less sarcasm. Staying on the theme of supernatural series. We also discuss Wolf Pack and zoom in on the penultimate episode titled 'Lion's Breath' which has a few big plot reveals when it comes to Ramsay and her true nature. We also discuss how gorgeous the show's cinematography is when it comes to one shot in particular. Moving into the realm of science fiction and fantasy. We discuss the new season of The Mandalorian and recap events from 'The Mines of Mandalore' and 'The Convert'. We also briefly discuss a few shows from Star Wars past as well as touch on the infamous Holiday Special via a discussion about a new documentary film about that. So set your lightsabers to maim as many Ewoks were sacrificed to make this episode. We close out this month's show with a recap of Star Trek: Picard's fifth episode 'Imposters', which not only saw the return of Ro Laren from TNG. But also used her character as a means to link the A and B plots together as more is revealed about The Changeling Plot to undermine Starfleet and The Federation. We also speculate somewhat as to where this could go and discuss how Paramount Plus could use this season of Picard as a Springboard for other series that could reintroduce characters from TNG, DS9 & Voyager as well as continue the adventures of some of the new characters such as Captain Shaw and Ensign Sydney LaForge. So please tune in for another packed reviews episode and feel free to comment about any of the shows we cover or even suggest shows and movies you'd like us to discuss. If you enjoyed our reviews show. Then please consider subscribing to our Feeds on Spotify and iTunes.

Welcome to SFP-NOW and our new TV reviews show that we'll be looking to roll out every two weeks. For this series, Ian Cullen is joined by Marx Pyle of GenreTainment to discuss episodes of various genre television shows. This week's episode takes a look at episode three of The Last Of Us, which seemed to stir up mixed reviews from fans of the game versus those fans that have just tuned in for the series. Get our views on the Bob and Frank storyline. Also, we have a look at the new Netflix Series Lockwood & Co, which is somewhat of a surprise package with its story of an alternate future in which ghosts are a very common occurrence, but can only be hunted down by teenagers. Staying on the theme of supernatural series we also take a look at the new Paramount Plus series Wolf Pack, which is somewhat of a comeback for Buffy's Sarah Michelle Geller who interestingly doesn't have a huge role in the show's pilot episode. Moving from horror. We jump to some time travel for some fast and dirty comments on the new Quantum Leap series and the episode titled Leap. Die. Repeat. which kind of played out a little like Groundhog Day. And Finally, Marx talks about his recent experience of being a panelist on a massive Buffy The Vampire Slayer Rewatch and talks a little about what he considers to be the best episodes of the show's fourth season.

Welcome to a celebration as SFP-NOW and GenreTainment Cross their Streams to discuss their top picks for Television, Movies, Comics, Books, and Video Games of 2022. With another year coming to an end. SFP-NOW's Ian Cullen and Genretainment's Marx Pyle invite guests, Jeff Burns of SuperGeekeduo and Fantasy writer Katharine Dow, to share their top three Television, Movie, Book, Comic Book and Video Game picks of 2022. Indeed 2022 has been a great year for genre television and film and started off with a bang as DC unleashed Peacemaker on an unsuspecting audience when it hit HBO in the USA and Sky Atlantic here in the UK. After this, the year continued with a steady stream of TV shows and movies, which included such hits as Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Stranger Things, Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Game of Thrones: House of The Dragon and much more. Insofar as movie releases went. We were totally spoiled with a mixed bag of genre movies ranging from the out-and-out stylized madness of Bullet Train to the surprise hit Prey, which instead of enjoying a big cinema release got released via streaming thanks to Hulu and Disney Plus here in the UK. The year also saw its fair share of sequels as well with the much-anticipated release of Enola Holmes 2 and of Course Black Panther II: Wakanda Forever. When it comes to comic books. It was a great year for Star Wars as we saw the story of Crimson Dawn get fully fleshed out as it crossed over the entirety of the Star Wars comicsverse. Whereas more individual titles such as Something is Killing The Children and The British Paranormal Society also got a look in. So tune in to listen to the shows, movies, and books that we discuss and if you have a few picks you'd like to add or have us look at. Please feel free to leave in the comments and we'll try and circle back and discuss those too. In the meantime, we wish all our listeners a happy and prosperous 2023 in the hopes that things will get better for all.

It was another exceptional year for television and movies, which gave us much to chat about.

Welcome to another creepy episode of SFP-NOW. Being served up for this episode is the second part of our interview shows for the new Anthology Book Tales of Monstrosity: Monsters, Myths, and Miscreants. Joining us Marx Pyle and me for this installment will be the following writers: Marisa Wolf, Colten Fisher, Victoria L. Scott, and Sophia DeSensi. All four of these writers have stories featured in the new Anthology, which has managed to raise its target on Kickstarter with change to spare for some to cover next year's Halloween Decor. Victoria L. Scott has the ultimate can-do attitude and is a Jedi when it comes to Latin. Victoria shares in our love of the Harry Dresden novels while teasing her story, which is about a headless horseman who is a descendant of the original Headless Horseman. Marisa Wolf talks about her story, which is titled 'An Old Favor' which is a detective story that has a few clever twists. Colten Fisher talks about his contribution to the book, which is titled 'Hexpad Blog: A First-Timer's Guide to the Big City'. This story focuses on a young person who encounters the big city for the first time and decides to write a Blog about it. After all. One can never tell what one can find in the big city. And last, but by no means least we have Sophia DeSensi who talks about her new story 'Ghouly Girl' which explores what happens when a quirky young Ghouly Girl moves in with two human roommates. Head over to the book's Kickstarter to Learn more.

Welcome to a new episode of SFP-NOW. For this monstrous edition of the show. We bring news of a new Kickstarter campaign for a new anthology book called Monstrosity: Monsters, Myths, and Miscreants. In order to help get this campaign up and running. We speak to the series creator and sometimes contributor to scifipulse.net Marx Pyle about the book and also learn about some of the stories contained within its monstrous pages. In this first set of writer chats, we speak with Scott A. Johnson about his story El Cucuy, which is about a Mexican boogie-man that uses shadows like hallways and eats naughty children. Then we chat to Michael La Ronn about The Brazen Skull, which focuses on a necromancer living in the ghetto is hired by a warlock to seek the brazen skull, a magical artifact imbued with the spirit of a dead warlock... Then we hunt down and catch up with Marx Pyle about his story Rebel With A Cause, which tells the tale of a Shapeshifter who is hired to gun down a Fae gang... After which we interrogate Jeff Burns about The Adventures of Elena and Ned, Gargoyle P.I. The clue to the story is in the title as it focuses on a Gargoyle private detective. And rounding off this first round of interviews. We chat with J.C. Mastro about MagicLand Mischief which looks at what happens after hours in the world-famous Magic Land amusement park... You can learn more about Monstrosity: Monsters, Myths, and Miscreants here at their Kickstarter.

This time out we chat about his latest book 'Escape From New York: The Official Story of The Film', which has been selling so well that Titan can't print them fast enough. Over the course of our conversation, John explains how the book came about and teases a few details about the book. Additionally, we even discuss our favorite elements from the film while discussing the casting, special effects, and everything else, which are all discussed in full in the book. Also, we discuss our mutual appreciation for the late Donald Pleasence who to many horror fans is best known for his role of Dr. Loomis. However, we talk about his role as the corrupt President and how he was initially reluctant to play the part. Added to this. We also discuss a few of John's films. Specially Toryboy, which has a few interesting parallels to the corruption that is depicted in Escape From New York. And to end with. We chat about some of the movies and TV Shows that John would love to work on if given the opportunity. To listen to all of what was discussed hit play on the audio player and enjoy as John and I totally geek out about what is regarded as John Carpenters best movie.

Welcome to a very special edition of SFP-NOW on SciFi-Pulse Radio. In this episode, we are joined by special guest John Walsh who is a huge fan of science fiction and fantasy. An acclaimed filmmaker and writer as well as a Trustee of the Ray Harryhausen Foundation, which preserves and displays the work of the legendary special effects artist and filmmaker. In the episode. John takes us through his early career and how he found friendship with the late filmmaker who created memorable monsters such as Medusa and the Kraken from the original 'Clash of The Titans' and many more. He also talks in-depth about many of the things that can be found in his book 'Harryhausen: The Lost Movies', which I highly recommend to fans of genre film and television. As it gives insight into the many things that Ray Harryhausen would have liked to do. But never got to due to budgetary reasons. John also discusses the incredible journey that he went on. When putting together his Flash Gordon book 'Flash Gordon: The Official Story of the Film'. Which is an incredible story to listen to and well worth the time in the telling. In short. When John wrote the book and it came time to look for images from the film. He learned at the last minute that the studio didn't save anything. So he had to source images and production stills from the fan community and some of the people that worked behind the scenes on the film. Added to all of this great stuff. John also previews his new book, which is due out in September, which is called 'Escape From New York: The Official Story of the Film'. So if you enjoy retro movies and appreciate classic genre entertainment. Tune into this episode because we cover a hell of a lot of stuff.You learn more about John Walsh and his work at johnwalshfilmmaker.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Tis the season and we here at SciFiPulse Radio and SFP-NOW wish you a merry one. In this special episode, which we recorded in early December. Ian, Ben, and Raissa discuss episodes of Star Trek: Discovery, The Mandalorian, and more.

We also discussed Ahsoka Tano and speculate a little about how she may be used in future Star Wars projects. Additionally. Given the time of year. We also discuss a few of our favorite Christmas Movies and TV shows. So ho ho ho and all of that. Apologies for Ben's sound in this episode.

We speak to filmmaker, writer and director Jon Silverberg about his movie Woodland, which is part psychological horror movie and part character study.Over the course of our Chat Jon talks about the great team he managed to put together for the movie, which included Richard Harmon who is best known for his role in 'The 100' and acclaimed actor Philip Granger who plays the role of Sparky in the film and formed a very strong friendship with his co-star while making the film.Jon also talks a little about how his career thus far has allowed him the opportunity to get to work with the likes of Stargate SG1 and Sanctuary star Amanda Tapping, who has moved more towards producing and directing herself. We even learn that Amanda plays a small, but somewhat important role in Woodland as the radio operator who is Sparky's only contact out in the civilised world.We also learn a little about some of the technical challenges that Jon and his team faced while making the film as well as a little promo for the great location where the film is shot.So if you have an interest in independent cinema then tune in to hear what Jon has to share as well as some updates on what he is working on right now.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/SciFiPulse-Radio.

This episode sees Raissa and Ian give their thoughts on 'Star Trek: Picard', which finished its run late last month on CBS All Access and Amazon Prime.

We also discuss History Channel's 'Project Blue Book', which ended its second season on a fantastic cliffhanger, but also introduced some intriguing new characters and themes to the show. And we wrap things up with Ian's thoughts on the UK version of Disney +, which launched in the UK on March 23 and has been a godsend while everyone has been in lockdown due to Covid 19.

We also touch on the animation style, which put me in mind of a more slick and modern take on the work that 1970's animators Rankin/Bass who were famous for their Christmas animated films as well as The Wind in The Willows. We also discuss the potential of the game to evolve and branch out into other genres while retaining it puzzle elements. When it comes to other games that Fast Travel Games have in the works. We will see Budget Cuts 2, which is a collaboration between Fast Travel and Neat Games, which will be hitting VR Headsets in December. VR fans will be able to play 'The Curious Tale of The Stolen Pets' on 14th of November and we highly recommend it as a game that all ages can enjoy.
