Tennant Leaving

David Tennant has announced that when Doctor Who returns in 2010, it'll be without him.

Goodbye Tennant and thank you, from us the fans, for being the Doctor, our Doctor.

To fans, I say, find comfort in the words of First Doctor:
"... There must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties. Just go forwards in all your beliefs and prove to me I'm not mistaken in mine."

The New Team

As of the soon to released Series One, Five Rounds Rapid shall feature a new co-host, no longer shall you be entertained by Julian and Patrick but also now Edward! Edward, who you may recall form out interview special, is now a co-host, in a Colin Baker manner, a minor character returns in a new role!

Review: Starship Troopers 3- Marauder

What can I say? I've just finished watching ST3, and am now getting through the DVD extras. I'll start with the DVD itself, for $32.00 AUS, I was able to get the DVD, with a signed box, which was pretty impressive. Onto the Film, now I wasn't expecting that much; a somewhat cheap, cheesy and amusing film... And that's what I got, with a bit of gore and nudity thrown in.

The use of the vid-news service worked well throughout the film. The 'It's a good day to die' song is brilliant, as is Stephan Hogan 's portrayal of Sky Marshall Anoke. The previous ST films have made use of satire, and ST3 is no exception, this time making use of religion and events such as the Vietnam and Iraq wars. This film is well worth watching, that's all for now, catch you on the bounce!
