Elston Gunn Goes To The 33rd Annual Saturn Awards!!

Brandon Routh? Best Actor? by blackmantis	May 14th, 2007 08:06:47 AM
I mean, I know science fiction isn't known for great performances, but come on, dig a little deeper guys. He was okay, at most just did an acceptable Chris Reeve impersonation. Clive Owen was much better in his thankless role in Children of Men.
2 Masi Okas!?!?!? by dgcrawford	May 14th, 2007 08:17:11 AM
There were 2 Masi Okas there? What, was one from the future?
And the award for best Saturn goes to... by Garbageman33	May 14th, 2007 08:27:33 AM
The Saturn Ion. Here to accept is some poor schlub who can't afford what he really wanted.
Superman Returns? Seriously? by Movietool	May 14th, 2007 09:32:33 AM
Superman Returns was a better Fantasy film that Dead Man's Chest? Brandon Routh's acting tops Daniels Craig's? Bryan Singer's direction is better than EITHER Del Toro or Cuaron? Superman Returns was better written than Pan's Labyrinth? Is this a joke? Who the hell votes for these awards? A panel of eight-year olds?
The link for saturnawards site is by gotilk	May 14th, 2007 09:37:43 AM
www.saturnawards.org .... leave out the "the" and it works. Great report, by the way. But is this videotaped, aired or released in any way?
Eh ! by supersize	May 14th, 2007 09:39:33 AM
Dead man's chest was shite!
Jodelle should have been nominated for an Oscar by CarmillaVonDoom	May 14th, 2007 10:07:09 AM
for Tideland. Her performance is really that special. I was with the whole report, sounded GREAT, all the way up until SR won for best writing. Really??? It was the worst written film of the year last year....oh and Olmos needs to STFU; BSG can and probably will go on for years longer without his presence. Just imo of course.
Best Writing - Superman Returns?? by V'Shael	May 14th, 2007 10:14:06 AM
These awards have No credibility. NONE. Superman Returns wasn't best at anything, except possibly as a cure to insomnia.
No love for THE FOUNTAIN... by Nordling	May 14th, 2007 10:16:06 AM
Sigh.
Wait, they're making a Fear Effect movie? by rbatty024	May 14th, 2007 10:28:19 AM
Like based off of the videogame Fear Effect or just with the same name? I don't play many videogames any more, and most of them are pretty forgettable, but that game sticks out in my mind as having a great plot (a rarity) to adapt to film. Why isn't there an article about this or have I missed it?
How is that the complete list of Saturn Awards? by DoctorTom	May 14th, 2007 11:29:40 AM
The list totally skipped any of the awards for written stories (novels, novelettes, short stories, etc) - the reason they started giving out Saturn awards in the first place - so how is that list 'complete'?

Funny.
SUPERMAN RETURNS RULES by ObiWanCon	May 14th, 2007 11:48:17 AM
SUPERMAN RETURNS FUCKING RULES AND YOU ALL FUCKING KNOW IT. WANKERS
Who the hell is Tobor in Silent Running? by DarthJedi	May 14th, 2007 12:20:20 PM
I thought the robots were called Huey Duey and Louie or Drone # 1, 2 or 3. Is there another Silent Running with robots that I'm not aware of?
OUT OF THIS WORLD by SciFiRules	May 14th, 2007 12:39:15 PM
The show had something for everybody! I was lucky to snag a ticket again... and it was the time of my life. There were not only actors/actresses from all the top shows, but were enough character actors, famous faces, cult figures that even the most discerning film fan would be excited to see. And they all really ENJOYED being there. Plus, virtually everyone BEHIND the scenes was in attendance -- and I got to chat with Richard Donner. Plus, there were so many hotties for males and females alike. Where else can you see Admiral Adama and Quinton Collins clammoring for cool giftbags with The Ghost Whisperer and Danny Trejo and DWIGHT from the Office...
TOBOR... by SciFiRules	May 14th, 2007 12:41:14 PM
Oh, and Tobor is a classic silly-looking but COOL robot from a b-movie... there was a Silent Running drone there as well. Plus, the 100-page program book had a cool cover by an artist named RAGNAR -- which looks like a melding of art deco, retro-50s mixed wtih an Amazing Story cover.
Glad you enjoyed it! by Saturntwin	May 14th, 2007 12:46:05 PM
I was truly honored to have a hand on a show of this magnitude. Like you said, you really have to see it to believe it. It's not a "fan" event and it's not a "commercialized" butt-kisser... everyone who came was so genuine. The peeps from HEROES were a blast. They love their fans and love their show. And young Noah ("Micah") had wide eyes throughout. And come on! Having Dwight and Pam from "The Office" present to Heroes and Galactica was like you said, "OUT OF THIS WORLD."
Brandon R by Saturntwin	May 14th, 2007 12:48:21 PM
I got to chat with Supes himself and he is really a SUPERMAN geek beneath that "S" -- he is dedicated to give his all to make the NEXT SUPERMAN live up to everyone's expectations...
SLITHER by SciFiRules	May 14th, 2007 12:52:22 PM
Yeah... and James Gunn from Slither is a total GEEK in the best sense of the word! He makes that mean something to him -- plus he's got Jenna Fischer -- oo-la-la! And the entire Slither gang are so cool and a real tight-knit bunch -- Michael Rooker and Nathan Fillion -- the new odd couple. Nathan's a super guy and deserves to be a superstar...
Jennifer Love... by SciFiRules	May 14th, 2007 12:54:30 PM
... was a real sport! She was ribbed by the best of 'em Jeff Ross... er, actually Greg Grunberg... and took it and dished some back. You don't see that on the Golden Globes. ;)
Superman Returns was an abomination. by iamnicksaicnsn	May 14th, 2007 02:32:37 PM
Ok, not as bad as Spidey 3, but it still was pretty damn stupid, and had a totally weak Lex Luthor, with thanks to Kevin Spacey for doing the best he could with the utter-shit he was given.
Yeah... by david19	May 14th, 2007 02:56:17 PM
seriously, Superman was disappointing at best. This has no credibility. How do they come up with these choices?
here's the shatner clip-classic stuff! by gunslinger7000	May 14th, 2007 05:28:26 PM

Routh best actor???????????? by Kenny8	May 14th, 2007 08:51:27 PM
You have to be fuckin kidding!! Saturn Awards=Zero Credibility
Routh couldn't attend because.... by Kenny8	May 14th, 2007 08:52:41 PM
...he was in Kansas selling his autograph to pay the rent.
Love Hewitt beating out Kristen Bell & Katee Sackhoff? by Pennsy	May 14th, 2007 09:27:26 PM
Oh, the hugh-manatee. Teh Suck, that choice for Best TV Actress was. :\|
Why don't they broadcast this on TV anymore?! by SnapT	May 14th, 2007 11:19:09 PM
You'd think the SCI FI Channel would pick it up.
I still can't get over it... by Kenny8	May 15th, 2007 02:45:37 AM
That Clive Owen, good actor but he's no Brandon Routh! I mean wtf is a Brandon Routh? Wasn't he all CGI anyway? Routh(whatever that is) says someone else's lines, gets gong Ottoman plays someones else's music, gets gong HUH?? Bryan Singer must be one of the judges.
wow by kwisatzhaderach	May 15th, 2007 05:15:11 AM
superman returns won awards? sometimes I feel like i've strayed into a parallel dimension.
