According to Engadget’s live coverage of Apple’s “Let’s Rock” event today, NBC and iTunes have ended their feud and are now making with the TV again. In HD to boot. A quick check shows that as of right now there’s still no BSG in the iTunes store, so I’m guessing that we’ll see NBC’s content [...]

To commemorate our 100th GWC podcast, we’re going live — bringing GWC Podcast #100 to you in real time via TalkShoe.com at noon central time tomorrow, Saturday May 17th, 2008. Why? Because we feel like the GWC community is largely responsible for the podcast growing from a couple of people talking in a room to [...]

As reported by the Associated Press (and all ’round the ‘net), Gary Gygax passed on this morning. He was 69, and is survived by a large family. This is where most writers would insert either a humorous bit of RPG-speak or relate their own D&D-playing-teenager experience, I’ll just state the obvious:
Gygax indirectly affected my life [...]

A new Iron Man trailer is making the rounds, offering a longer glimpse at Tony Stark’s early attempts at flying and a pretty good feeling as to how the story’s going to flow. My take: it’s a lot better than the teaser, and has me more excited about checking it out this summer.
(Thanks, Yorick! You [...]

Those of you who’re fans of the Starship Troopers franchise will want to check out the new Starship Troopers 3: Even More Starship Troopers trailer making the ‘net rounds this week. Highlights: moving footage of the new bugs and lots of fun, cheesy “join the Federation” PSAs.
And speaking of the Federation, everyone’s favorite bare-backed Vulcan [...]

It looks like WonderCon BSG coverage is starting to dribble out of San Franciso, including this bit from Great White Snark, who attended Richard Hatch’s talk today. Besides confirming that Hatch is still is normal “pervy” self — talking to his pants and again suggesting that his character should get laid — he also mentioned [...]

The Vancouver rumor mill says Battlestar Galactica may begin shooting March 24th, says local radio station News 1130. Obviously Canadian crew are ready to put the strike behind them and resume work.
This rumor bodes well for both a complete fourth season and a possible pre-2009 series conclusion.

The kind folks over at TV Squad are reporting this morning that the studios and writers appear to have some to an agreement on contract terms. While the negotiators must still present the proposal to the union leaders, this might mean a short end to the current strike. More importantly, it might mean an end [...]

Just a quick note to let you know what we did indeed record a podcast for this week. It’s currently held up by an technical glitch from our hosting service Libsyn. Libsyn’s been wonderful to work with and has always been incredibly helpful in resolving any problems, so we imagine they’ll have things crankin’ again [...]

Because Razor brought in so many listener calls — which we didn’t get to at all last week — we’ve bumped the re-watch schedule back one week to allow us to take calls in this week’s ‘cast. So if you’re wondering what’s on the schedule for this week (or any other week), check out the [...]

GWC listener TighGetsPunchedALot swiped this image from Galactica.TV’s awesome interview with Gary Hutzel, visual effects supervisor on the re-imagined BSG series. The interview contains all sorts of interesting information about the process designers followed to create the new/old CGI’d cylons, but as you can see, GWC listeners had a bit more fun coming up with [...]

Since we’re officially waiting until April for new post-Razor Galactica, we decided to “unpack” the re-watch schedule a bit, giving each episode its own week instead of stacking up two-part episodes. We’ve updated the schedule in the official calendar over in the forum.
Immediately — GWC “immediately,” not Sci-Fi “immediately” — this means that next week’s [...]
