Remember when Sarah Silverman was in Star Trek: Voyager? We salute that and 9 other ace guest turns in the show...
Star Trek: Voyager does not share the good reputation of its predecessors The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine, with some fans disappointed that the inherent conflict between Starfleet and Maquis characters was not explored further, others perhaps put off by the really rather dull and occasionally ridiculous second season. However, Voyager was as capable as any other Star Trek series of producing memorable stories and excellent performances, and for those of us for whom it is our favourite branch of the Star Trek franchise (yes, we do exist) it is worth celebrating some of the things it did really well – in this case, the actors and actresses who came to join the show for guest performances.

Skyline 2nd PosterThe newest trailer for Skyline is fantastical, as an alien species rips through the human race with no emotion, or regard for life. Showing several more frames of footage, this Skyline reel also shows some of the strategies used by the aliens to harvest their human subjects.

The teaser trailer for the brothers Strause’s “Skyline” was … teasing, but intriguing nonetheless. This full trailer for “Skyline”, though? The sheer number of money shots spread throughout the two-plus minutes? Spectacularly awesome stuff, man. It’s so spectacular and awesome that I’m tempted to call it “spectacularly awesome shit”, but being that there might be kids reading this, I will refrain from calling it that. You’re welcome, parents. In the sci-fi thriller Skyline, strange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, drawing people outside like moths to a flame where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth. Starring Eric Balfour, Scottie Thompson, David Zayas, Donald Faison, Brittany Daniel, Crystal Reed, Neil Hopkins, J.

Skyline PosterFreud stated that there were three great revolutions in the development of consciousness: Copernicus' discovery that the earth orbits the sun, that humans are developed from apes (Darwin) and the influence of the unconscious (21st Century). This reviewer believes that next hurdle for consciousness will be the discovery of the existence of beings from another planet. This is also the premise of Skyline, which is debuting a new poster for the film here.
This latest poster shows in brilliant blues and the little black dots in the foreground are people being taken in to large ships. The tagline is "don't look up" and Skyline shows the technical possibilities of an advanced race. Rewatch the trailer for this stand out sci-fi feature below until released November 12th.

Skyline Movie StillHere is a likely premise: signals from Earth, sent in to space, attract extraterrestrials, who are a lot smarter and aggressive than humans. Then, the less intelligent are harvested for God knows what. This is the plotline for the brothers Greg and Colin Strause's Skyline, which launches in to theatres November 12th. Aliens will run the show and Skyline shows why S.E.T.I, or the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence might want to turn down the volume on radio transmissions. Have a look at the trailer inside.
