CAN�T ... OVERCOME ... EFFECTS ... OF SOLAR ... ALIEN: William Shatner recently made headlines with his reality series Invasion: Iowa -- in which he told a small town that he was shooting a cheesy sci-fi movie there, but was actually punking them. Meanwhile, the once-and-future Capt. Kirk has been talking for months about directing Alien Fire, a "drive-in style" Saturday night flick for the U.S. Sci-Fi channel about evil aliens from the Sun (no, not the one you�re reading, the one that makes you go blind if you look at it during an eclipse).

Well, Alien Fire is underway in Hamilton with Nicholas Brendon (Buffy The Vampire Slayer) starring, but Shatner is not involved. John Terlesky is directing the film, which was written by Judith Reeves-Stevens, an ex-writer-producer for Star Trek: The Next Generation. Three possibilities: (a) creative differences, (

Shatner was punking us, or © solar aliens got him.

I think your quote at the bottom sums it up PG "The world is definately doomed". I would see it though just to support him. If all fans supported 100% their Buffy / Angel actors, the ratings would go up, which means they might get carried on leading to possibilities for better roles?

That's my theory anyway!

I think it's been picked up though only a Pilot has been made yet.

It seemed to me to be totally tragic so why she picked up this project escapes me completely. Why on earth is she wearing an eyepatch? After the genius of Buffy I wonder if it is easy to lose focus and a sense of real quality compared to dross. Michelle came a real cropper as well with Eurotrip but hit the mark with Six Feet Under so maybe there is hope. sk http://www.canwestmediasales.com/televisio...met_mother.html

How big is her role? It does seem a little strange but let not forget we are viewing this clip is out of context the programme itself could be good but you need to see a couple of episodes to know whats what. The first time someone told me about Buffy they said she�s a teenage girl who hunts vampires I didn�t get it until I had seen for myself. The rest as they say is history! I'm a little cynical but sometimes it�s easier to get a job once you have as an actor I guess it about staying in the public eye. Perhaps she�s doing this until something better comes along? Maybe being naive but I would have thought after her success with Buffy and things like American Pie Series that she would have a lot of job offers? Good Luck Alyson!

Sarah Michelle Gellar is set to star in and Marcus Nispel will helm vidgame adaptation "Alice" for Universal Pictures. Based on a twisted take of the Lewis Carroll classic, project was originally developed at Dimension. The fractured fairy tale, adapted by Erich and Jon Hoeber, picks up Alice after her home has been destroyed and her family killed....

You mean even more twisted than the Rev Dodgeson's original books? I know he wasn't on acid, but I think there's a telling claret+laudenum mix in there that we should be told about (and what IS that caterpillar smoking anyway?)

'Wonderland' role for Buffy's Sarah
Buffy actress Sarah Michelle Gellar is to star in a big-screen update of Alice In Wonderland.

The 28-year-old has signed up for the lead role in Alice, which follows Lewis Carroll's heroine after she grows up.

But movie giant Universal Pictures is not adapting Carroll's classic books, Alice's Adventures In Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass.

Instead, Alice will be based on a US shoot-em-up computer game of the same name, in which the heroine wipes out the baddies with razor-sharp playing cards, exploding Jack-in-the-boxes and deadly croquet mallets.

The game was released in 2000 and became a worldwide bestseller.

It portrays Alice as a disturbed young woman consigned to a mental asylum following the death of her parents.

She returns to Wonderland and encounters all the old characters, from the Mad Hatter to the Queen of Hearts.

But Wonderland is now a dark and threatening world and she must battle to escape alive.

Gellar, 28, was the star of TV show Buffy The Vampire Slayer and has appeared in films including Scooby-Doo, Cruel Intentions and The Grudge.

Alice will be directed by Marcus Nispel, who was behind the recent remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

This from MSN news.......why does 'normal again' spring to mind
