I love looking through books with production art and set design because I like to get an idea of how different things are between concept and what appears on the screen. This year Pacific Rim: Uprising was released with even more robo-battles and giant monster action than the original. Fortunately, Insight Editions published The Art and Making of Pacific Rim: Uprising so people like me can peek behind the curtain. Continue reading

Equipment: New Jaeger Figures of Gipsy Avenger and Bracer Phoenix from Pacific Rim: Uprising
I have to admit that giant robots will always
hold a place in my heart. Growing up I had television shows like Gigantor and Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot and from the big screen there was Mecha-Godzilla and Jet Jaguar. By the time the 1980s rolled around I had Robotech and Transformers. Now that I am an adult I still have a love for giant robots which is why I am a fan of the Pacific Rim movies. Continue reading

Hard Copy: The Art of Star Trek: The Kelvin Timeline Review
I have been a Star Trek fan all of my life. I wish I
could recall when I watched the show for the first time but I don’t. My father says (though I really don’t believe it) that by the age of 5 I was able to recite the opening monologue from the original series word for word. Seriously though, “Space, the final frontier…” were the words that sparked the fire in my imagination. So in these few sentences you can come to the conclusion that I love the show. Continue reading
