I’m a huge fan of Octavia Butler’s work, as she is certainly one of the best science fiction writers to have lived. Here is a selection of clips from a panel she did several years back that I found rather interesting. Enjoy:
It’s unfortunate that this trailer is fan made and not a collection of early production shots for what could be one of the best superhero movies ever made. Nathan Fillion as the Green Lantern is, well, the perfect fit. If they pick anyone else to play Hal Jordan (a.k.a the Green Lantern, or one of them, at least), which they likely will, then I will be sorely disappoint. In any case, here is the video: Special thanks to SF Signal for bringing this video to my attention.
This is a rather entertaining video on the writing of Mark Twain narrated by one of the coolest actors in history: John Lithgow. It’s short and quite cute. Give it a look and let me know what you think in the comments:Who is Mark Twain? from Flash Rosenberg on Vimeo.

(Stolen from SF Signal)I’ve discovered another of those heart-warming science fiction short films that I thought you’d all enjoy. The cinematography in this film is pretty impressive, along with the CG. The story itself, while short, is really wonderful, and I think you’ll all enjoy it. Here it is: World Builder from Bruce Branit on Vimeo.
