Washington DC – President Trump has threatened to use domain expansion regarding the matter of Greenland. “Well, don’t need to use it on Greenland right now, that’s a bit dramatic,” said Trump, “but tariffs on European countries who want to get in our way is fine by me.” Among the eight countries are the UK, France, Germany and Sweden. “Look, it’s nothing lethal, tariffs is a simple and not-too-harsh technique, but it’s a guaranteed hit,” he added. The president, however, has

Caracas, Venezuela – Former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has won a free trip to the United States. “We’ve copped a lot of flak for shoving people back to places like Venezuela,” said US President Donald Trump, “and I don’t wanna be insensitive to that, which is why I’m giving Nicki here a free trip to our country. And new tracksuits too.” President Trump clarified that the trip is in the spirit of the new year and not because Maduro is a “commie cartel-kissing fat tub

Melbourne, Australia – Young Asians, mostly high school and university students from Southeast Asia, have banded together to protest against knife crime perpetrated by those of Middle Eastern descent. “It’s a disgrace,” said Hac Yu, a student in year 11. “There was a time when it was just Asians who carried knives or meat cleavers and actually whipped them out to use them on people. Now it’s all brown people.” Jon Lee, a commerce undergraduate student, agrees: “I remember a t

Endor (GNS) – Rebel Leader Mon Mothma has confirmed that the recent follow-up strike on the Death Star was “perfectly appropriate” after receiving a briefing and viewing the classified video of the operation. Imperial senators have been questioning the legality of the strikes and demanding the video be declassified and released. Over a million imperial personnel died after the first strike on the massive battle station. When the Empire built a second Death Star around the moo

Washington DC – US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced Operation Southern Spear on Thursday. “We’re calling it that because we’re gonna shove spears up the out-holes of the cartels,” said Hegseth. “And let’s be honest, it’s not just them, it’s also for those who traffic children, launder money and rig voting machines. Funny how no one talks about them.” Meanwhile, former Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi has announced an operation of her own. “Just bec

Washington DC – A man is disgusted that his information regarding Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa, the current Syrian president, will not be rewarded by the State Department. “There’s a $10-million bounty on this guy,” said the man, “and I couldn’t believe he was on TV with President Trump at the White House. I rang the State Department right away and told them he’s at the White House so go get him now.” The State Department stated that they are “pretty sure” that the bounty has been

Intriguing utopian-dystopian premise and setting in which the boy has to leave the utopian city and go underground. Well-produced but the plot lacks substance and is somewhat bland.

Good production but lacks an intriguing plot. There are a few cool scenes but not enough.

DS9 (FNS) – Many starships have gathered near Deep Space Nine to protest the expulsion of Cardassians from Federation and Bajoran space....

Despite a number of minor issues, a solid series created by Tony Gilroy, the writer of the Bourne trilogy. Nicely shot and edited. Decent pacing and dramatic tension.

Decent production and solid performances. Tension and suspense are not bad but plateaus later. As a cheesy action thriller, it is enjoyable enough even though it could use at least one more set piece.

Earth vs Moon rebels. Starts well enough but worldbuilding and structure are not quite right. Overly ambitious and unfocused.

Effective opening, then takes a quieter approach. Short and tight. Full of tropes which makes it amusing. Some hate it but is not a bad mild sci-fi horror-thriller.

Plot-driven, focused on human and material aspects with the supernatural taking a backseat. Entertaining and, intended or not, even comical.

Interesting 22nd-century sci-fi police/anti-terrorist action that touches on many themes even if it doesn’t explore them in depth.

Starts strongly enough. Relies on the cast to hold it together. Final act could use better writing and way better execution. Meh.
