When the movie Stargate came out I loved it. I was about 17, so perhaps I was easily impressed at the time but having recently rewatched it, I still think it stands up. When the TV show spin-off first aired I was very disappointed and abandoned it after only a few episodes. This turned out […]

Well done costumers. Nico should always be topless. So far my fave dancers are Lisa, Allie and the aforementioned Shirtless Angel of Crimped Mohawk Hotness. I also kinda like Izaak even though the judges keep shitting all over him. Perhaps partly because of that. Although I think it’s mostly his cute awkwardness that I find […]

You guessed it, I’m taking a break. I won’t be updating Waste Island for a while because I’m currently working on another project that is also related to WI but will not be shown on niqueworks. That’s right, it’s a secret project. A super secret project. Oooh cryptic. But in the meantime I’ll review Coraline, […]

Everybody knows I’m a huge Star Trek fan.  Maybe to a point that is even… unreasonable.  But there it is:  I take this shit seriously.  In my defense I was 11-years-old when I first became a fan so my tastes were less refined than they are now (slighty at least) and hell, it was the […]

Ok, deep breaths… I’ve had a long session with the ship’s counselor and I think I’ve overcome my rage.  By exercising Vulcan levels of self-discipline I think I have come to the point where I can accept what they have done with this reboot of the Star Trek license.  Because it really is a reboot.  […]

Nique’s editor’s comments are in italics. Well it was entertaining. The various nods to fans and inside jokes were well-done. And I personally have been saying for awhile that a reboot (using time travel or alternate universe) would be a good idea. But this is not what I had in mind. Ultimately what they came […]

So, so, so disappointing.  What the hell happened with Christian Bale?  He used to be so awesome but then he started talking in a gravelly voice to be Batman and now he won’t let it go.  I know he’s a good actor because I’ve seen his other work, but he makes a shitty John Connor.  […]

I hear so many conflicting rumours about new shows that I don’t know what to believe.  Virtuality and Caprica are both pilots for sci-fi shows and I’ve heard they are/are not being picked up so often I just don’t know.  But I sure hope they both get greenlit because they’re both pretty good.  And they both […]

Fantasia begins this Thursday so you’d think I’d take a break from movies beforehand but nope, I went to see Moon today in a proper theatre and it was time well spent. Sam Rockwell is on a station on the moon and… stuff happens.  To say anything else would be giving it away but I […]

I don’t think I would actually want to live in Japan, if only because it seems to be a rather more overtly misogynistic society than the relatively respectful Canada I know and love (emphasis on word overt), plus you know, the whole I don’t speak Japanese thing, but damn it sure would be a cool […]
