Your Summer Movie Guide 2008
Hands up who has been indulging in a cheeky little grin at the thought that 
the summer blockbusters are nearly upon us! Hooray! I know I have.
The fabulous folks at Entertainment Weekly have provided a jam-packed Summer Movie Preview in their latest issue (on newsstands right now) so, giving credit where credit is due, we have them and IMDb to thank for some of the following source material. Cheers guys!
Entertainment Weekly claims to have the “inside buzz” on over 100 summer movies, but I’m not going to cover ALL of them. However, I will provide as much as I can on the bigger movies that are planned for the next few months, as well as some smaller films that I think sounded either entertaining, fun or simply cute (because there are always those cute, overlooked movies that don’t get enough buzz). So, strap yourselves in and enjoy the ride....

So much happened in television and movies throughout 2007 that a few of the editors here at FADPOV decided to choose our favorite moments, people, shows and movies of the year.

Cast I’d Be Most Likely to Buy a Round of Drinks For:
Aside from the fact that their series did a big ol’ 180 from the awesomeness of last season, the cast of Heroes continues to be one of the most down-to-earth, fun, enjoyable and fan-friendly shows of many that I’ve fan-girled. From Adrian Pasdar posting videos and responding to comments on YouTube, and Greg Grunberg and Sendhil Ramamurthy playing it to the fangirls with an onstage “kiss” at Comic Con...

Star Trek Books: The Early Years - Part II
What? This was always meant to be part II. Really. Stop looking at me like that. I had notes and everything. There’s no need to revisit part I’s inspired opening paragraphs regarding my love for the written world of Star Trek lore is there? You get the idea that I feel like there’s just something about these books… the ones I filched from my parent’s basement or bought in a fit of gluttony during those and subsequent years. Maybe much of this is long lost nostalgia, but there are some old favorites in there that are definitely worthy of mention, and so here is part II for all of you who are still along for the ride.Read Story

Star Trek Books - The Early Years
It’s hard to describe why I have such a nostalgic love for the earlier Star Trek novels; there was something about them, a level of continuity and in jokes that seemed to go missing for a while. It was all large plots and sweeping stories that liked to kill and maim well known characters, not the least of which was the Enterprise herself. It’s a bevy of tried and true plot twists, sabotage and conspiracies, amnesia (lots of amnesia!) and murder, time travel and alternate universes. While I don’t doubt the later Trek novels - they do tell a mighty fine tale - there is definitely something different about these early stories; stories written and published before an outside hand started sweeping through and giving out guidelines to authors and publishing houses alike. Star Trek, unlike its contemporary, Star Wars, was never originally a firmly held commodity in the written word… at least, not at first. Also, they wuz fun!...

"Heroes" at the Jules Verne Festival
It seems logical to assume that most of the people waiting in line outside the Los Angeles Theater at 4pm on Saturday, December 15th had never been to a film festival before. The gentlemen from France who hosted the evening’s event – most likely the festival’s creators, Jean-Christophe Jeauffre and Frédéric Dieudonné – on the other hand, had quite probably never been to a fan convention before. And yet, when the first LA branch of the Jules Verne Adventure Film Festival invited the cast and creators of Heroes to be a part of the closing night of the festival, it became inevitable that these two worlds would collide.The fact that this was a meeting between two very different cultures, despite both being entertainment related, became evident almost as soon as the event began....
