As just one example, fans have been worried about the "Borderlands" movie for quite some time. Now that critics have gotten their first look at the completed movie, their reactions have us even more worried than before.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Epic science fiction is often referred to as “space opera,” because the stakes are so large and so absurd that we can’t help but think of it as the opposite of a soap opera. The stakes are almost always the entire universe, the entire human race, or oddly, even bigger. From the early Lensmen series in the pages of Astounding to Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, and of course, to Star Wars, the galaxy is the stage for these kinds of adventures.

It’s not a set scene, it feels more ‘real’.” I’m playing the demo for The Crush House, a reality-TV-inspired dating game developed by Nerial and published by Devolver Digital, and I’m trying to appease a specific kind of audience: voyeurs. Daly is watching me play via Discord stream, and chiming in with his expert knowledge as I attempt to craft a hit series.
