Latest Sci-Fi 5

  • Waterworld - July 28, 1995

    Listen to Waterworld - July 28, 1995 Kevin Costner ignored Steven Spielberg's advice about shooting his film in open water, and that led to cost overruns and a notoriously difficult production. But does Waterworld - released on July 28, 1995 - deserve its reputation as a total disaster? Follow Sci-Fi 5 for your daily dose of science-fiction history. Written by Johnny Kolasinski…

Latest YouTube Video

It's summertime and the climbing is crazy. How much of the hard-to-translate arcade cult classic survived becoming a home video game with only a single joystick? Phosphor Dot Fossils ( http://www.thelogbook.com/phosphor/​ ) is one of the web's oldest archives of vintage console, computer, and arcade games; there was also a 2-DVD documentary of the same name, covering the early history of video games, produced in 2008 and 2009 (now available for download at http://www.thelogbook.com/store/​ ). And these days? PDF aims to bring a more laid-back, less-caffeinated, less-profanity-spewing experience to the retro video game longplay video. Check out my other projects and podcasts: eBooks "VWORP!1", "VWORP!2", "WARP!1" and "Fatherhood, Fandom, And Fading Out" available at http://www.thelogbook.com/store/​ and at Amazon!

  • Retrogram #7913: Three Shows, Three Mile Island

    The week of March 26th, 1979: Wales is finally exporting the works of one of its finest storytellers to the small screen.  Britain is exporting interconnected space operas, complete with space Vikings.  And the U.S.?  It’s exporting superheroes and a rare appearance by a genuine comics legend…but it’s keeping the nuclear fear to itself.  (50:16)…
