My thoughts exactly! Why bother with a a galaxy full of rocks and dust and boring biological ephemera when you can explore a nearly-infinite range of simulated possibilities?

It's all a plot of the Mad Deadly Communist Gangster Computer God! Wake up, you Frankenstein ear-phone radio slaves and know the truth!

Fifth one down looks remarkably like a gek-a-gek from Clive Barker's Imajica.

Naturally, if the entire hypothetical Homocosm (my own name for the virtual spaces running inside a hypothetical matrioshka brain) were running on one single piece of hardware, a fatal error in that hardware would necessarily take out the entire virtual species in one microsecond. However, why would you even *begin*…

By the 23rd Century, 99% of humanity will exist in the form of digital emulations and replicas endlessly proliferating within an infinity of virtual realms. The 1% that remain will huddle on what's left of the Earth, living little better than animals and wondering why the Sun is turning fuzzier every year.…

Best zombie novel I've ever read. It even beats out World War Z, and gods know I'm one of the biggest World War Z proselytes out there. Whitehead does a brilliant job of exploding all the preconceptions of zombie fiction which have grown so stale with overuse and one-ups World War Z in prettymuch the same way WWZ…

I've seen the Apollo 18 footage—I ALREADY KNOW WHAT'S UP THERE!

I'm still interested enough to see what the full feature will be like. Hopefully it will have a budget to make the monsters look at least a LITTLE better than SyFy-Channel Saturday-Night-at-9pm fare...but I don't have much hope for that. Nonetheless, if they stick with the atmospherics of the early part of the film…

Now that sounds like MY type of giddy, pointless, but fun alien-invasion flick! The dumber the better. :)

Wow. That just...blew. The cinematography and costume design were superb: the opening scenes really conveyed a palpable, frigid sense of dread—but the special effects and the execution of the final scene just ruined it. I don't object to the "creature" designs: I rather like the "walking trees" concept of the Black…

By Zeus, that looked bad-assed! I see we've got kyklopes, the khimera, Titans, and what looks like a double-bodied soldier loosely inspired by the bipolar "primordial" humans of Platonic fable. And a fire giant! Bitchin'.

BITCHIN'. Equal parts Cronenberg, Clive Barker, and J. K. Potter.

That was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

O. M. G. I laughed like an IDIOT at the trailer for Sasquatch Porn! This may be the best indie comedy since Never Been Thawed!

MUST.

Oh really? I'm no mindless advocate of Drexlerian nanotechnology magix, but we're surrounded by nanotechnology everyday—we're MADE of nanotechnology—and it does some pretty damned amazing things. It's called *life.*

I'm not a big fantasy reader—not *this* type of fantasy, anyway—but I've read enough to know that this is one prodigious work. Mad props to the creator!

These guys *do* realize that biotechnology and nanotechnology prettymuch allow us to go beyond basic biology, right?

You, sir, have prettymuch summed up my thoughts on the singularities perfectly!

Damn...the kid didn't explode—nor did the priest bite its head off. Still...I'm sold. But, then again, I just happen to love demon-possession films.
