saturn awards logo

It was a few short months ago that I shared the nominees for the 44th Annual Saturn Awards. It was my very first time showcasing these particular awards in our narratives but with my continuing to serve up as much of the proper geek stuff in our Pop Culture focuses, this celebration fits right in. The winners were all revealed yesterday so check out who won out in the eyes of the votes in this committee. That’s the folks from the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films in case you forgot. To make this an easier list to digest, I’ve left the nominees rundown in as well so you can see who won big out of the batch. It’s very likely that some of your favorites won while others did not. Let’s check it out. I’ll come back at the close for a few additional thoughts.

The End Is Nigh: “Star Wars Rebels” Season 4 Official Trailer Arrives

If you’ve been enjoying “Star Wars Rebels” for the past three seasons, I am sad to inform you that while we now have the trailer for Season Four, that it will be the shows final season of the series. As a big fan of the “Star Wars” mythology myself, I was sad to learn this news but with my having missed the first two seasons will be watching it somehow once its all run its course. Now let’s take a look at the Season Four trailer that was recently revealed.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Sadly I never got around to seeing any of the seasons and here we are at the final one. With that said, I guess it will be a little easier to binge watch when I can find the time. I’m one of those viewers who will NOT begin a series in the middle but maybe you are different in that regard. What did you think of the final season trailer? Have you been watching all along? Chime in down below in the comments section. As before, I’ve added the Amazon.com links for those who want to add the series to their video collection. May The Force Be With You 🙂

PiercingMetal Thoughts: So like I said, I haven’t seen any of the previous two seasons and will hopefully be able to either get copies of the Blu-ray for a reasonable sum or borrow a friends (hint, hint, hint). I don’t know if they are airing on Netflix at this time but maybe DisneyXD has an On Demand that will let me begin from the very start. It does look good and I am not usually a fan of these kind of shows. What did you think of the third season trailer? Are you already watching or will you be looking to do some DisneyXD and chill in the near future. Chime in down below in the comments section. I’ve also added the Amazon.com links for those who love adding these series to their video collection.
