| Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike.

Are there any films which are going to come out which you guys think look good just post some info and a trailer if so? I really want to see Ironclad it looks so damn awesome. Its a British production about the seige of Rochester Castle (which is 10 minutes down the road from me ) its possibly one of the bloodiest seiges at the time, until lamna corrects me The director wants to make it as gritty and realistic as possible and by the trailer it seems so. |

I don't know about anyone else, but I really want to see the movie "Battle: LA" about an alien invasion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55CgPUu-ENA&feature=topvideos I just hope the aliens aren't humanesque. Though it's easier to make an invasive species that isn't humanesque since the audience doesn't really have to identify with them. |

I thought they were going to make them killer robot things? Thats what they look like from the trailers. Heres another good looking film. Sucker Punch. The writers must have been smoking so much shit to write this its a crack team of really hot women who fight robots,nazis,dragons and samurai with mini guns. Its made by the people who did 300 so lots of awesome one liners and violence Heres the trailerhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSIetIg7O3M |

Ironclad and Battle: LA look good. I've been looking forward to another film about an invasion from space, though this won't be from aliens. In 1945 the Nazis left the earth. In 2018, they are coming back... Oh and speaking of those guys, yes there have been a lot worse sieges. The 29 month siege of Leningrad and the battle of Stalingrad come to mind. I can't wait to see and English subtitled version of the live action Space Battleship Yamato. It looks great in the trailers and other signs show it's going to be good, it blasted away the Harry Potter film when it was released in Japan. Yamato, hasshin!

The up-coming Winnie the Pooh movie will probably fit into this category, hopefully. |

Then it would be the Siege of Baghdad. Nobody is quite sure but the Mongols might have killed a million civilians, destroyed huge amounts of scientific books and documents and so ravaged the land, destroyed dykes and canals that the land still has not recovered fully. |

To be honest it does not sound very nice. It's not an epic battle, it's a desperate, short, poorly fought battle by an incompetent king by an overwhelmingly superior force followed by and orgy of mass looting, arson, slaughter and rape. I'm sure some nob would like to use it to bitch about how violent humans are and try and draw some parallel to the Iraq War, but I don't think I would enjoy it. Back to upcoming films, Paramount are going to be adapting John Scalzi's military SF Old Man’s War for the screen. I need to get around to reading the books, but everyone says they are great. Not quite a film I suppose, but the pilot for Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome is something I'm really looking forward to. Finally we get to see a proper war in the BSG universe. Not always running away and trying to survive, not how the conflict started but fraking battlestars and basestars pounding the shit out of each other with vipers and raiders dog-fighting around them. ![]() Oh and another film about something from the moon that looks good, Apollo 18 seem interesting.

28 Months Later Brave New World and Ironclad sounds good from the description above - I do hope it is realistic... I hate period pieces where everyone runs around with the latest pop-culture fashion hairdoes and modern wisecracks - and stupid things like put black people in 13th century England...

Well it's not entirely unknown for black people to be in England so long ago, heck, there were probably black people living in England before there were English people. But I get what you mean. I was checking up on 28 Months Later and it looks like that's not going to be made, there seems to have been some sort of falling out between the people making it. I'm looking forward to The Hobbit film, I'd wager it's going to be very good. |

Apollo 18 seems interesting, also all those alien invasion films, and I'm also really, really looking forward to the Hobbit film as well. |

I don't want to read too much about Apollo 18, looks like something you want to be surprised by. |
