This remarkable short film Scavenger from Raphael Rogers on Vimeo has been posted as a “proof of concept” for a feature. Whether or not it gets made, we have these visuals to enjoy.
Actual space news, and some recent con cosplay, appear below (along with a sneak preview of Halloween, not for the weak of heart):

The CW superhero shows announced a number of new developments in recent weeks, including:

“Oh, I blame the f-ckin Internet. No Question.” (375)
We still have a couple of weeks for summer reading left, and here’s one from five years ago, the last time Thomas Pynchon published a novel. Pynchon, as always, defies easy description, but Bleeding Edge is enough of a techno-thriller, with elements of the fantastic, to qualify for this site.

HBO has confirmed the new Watchmen series, with some serious talent signed on, including Regina King, Jeremy Irons, Don Johnson, Louis Gossett Jr., and others. The long-discussed show will not be a literal adaptation of the groundbreaking graphic novel, though it will be set in its world and use material from the source.
So what will the show, due to start in 2019, be about?

The planet Mars will pass closer to Earth tonight than it has been since 2003, or will be again until 2287 (though it will pass close-ish in 2020).
Meanwhile, on Earth, Actor Topher Grace has edited The Hobbit into the two-hour film it probably should have been, to much online applause.
See both while you can.
For fun, below: the recent Aquaman trailer and an amusing fan revision of it:

Okay, it has some serious limitations and the price tag is a tad hefty, but Richard Browning’s outfit is the closest we’ve come to a real life Iron Man suit, and you can have one, if you can spare the cash.
True, the suit is not a brand new item (you may have read about the prototype last year) but its more impressive flight-capacity and hypothetical availability appear to be.

I’ll have to get back to you with brief footage of my foray (as a spectator!) into second-tier “Pro Wrestling” later this summer. Meanwhile, we have a range of posts from around the net: new rocket engines, the Tsar’s space program, a Homestar Runner boardgame, a new Buffy, and video reports from San Diego:
