MEDIA TRACK
Our media panels tackle science fiction and fantasy on the large and small screens.
Ghosts of SyFy Past
Come reminisce about the actual science fiction SyFy used to show, and talk about the network's plans to get back to its science fiction roots.
Visual versus Textual Reading/Intelligence
Most movies/shows are judged by critics on their textual intelligence - the plot, the dialogue, etc. But visual intelligence is also important, and often missed in professional criticism. Tumblr memes spend days going over the tiniest visual cue in Captain America, while Pacific Rim is called "a dumb movie" - how can we improve our visual intelligence?
Where're OUR Superhero Movies?
The recent announcements of the Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel movies are exciting, as are the reveals of the Black Panther and Cyborg movies and Jason Momoa as Aquaman, but how do we remind Marvel and DC Entertainment that this a great start, but not adequate representation overall?
