Secrets of Zelda: Best and Worst Movies of 2009

This post is coming to you a bit late, but you know what they say…

So this is the second installment of the ZELDA compilation, a.k.a. Best and Worst movies of 2009. In my mind, 2009 will always be the year of Avatar, and if you’re not a fan, then I’m… not so sorry because I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. It’s also the year of The Blind Side, a.k.a. Sandra Bullock’s first Oscar, which she totally deserved, and I was happy that she finally chose a good role to show off her talent.

And hey, she played in the Proposal too! She was on fire in 2009.

Time Travel, Part 1 (History)

When you think about the future, what do you imagine? I know I do that often enough to be called a science fiction nerd. If you think about it, science fiction is not just about space and aliens. Sure, I’m as excited as the next person to find life, more so intelligent one, outside of our planet. Like it is said in Carl Sagan’s classic Contact (1985), ‘It would be a terrible waste of space otherwise.’ But science fiction is about so much more than space travel and alien life! It’s about things that could be, and maybe even will be one day.

Are we going to live high in the sky and fly around like in The Jetsons? Is the future going to be a fatalistic kind of Dystopia? Or are we going to discover that reality is actually an illusion like the Matrix? And for the big one:

Are we EVER going to be able to travel in time? Seriously. I want to know!

To answer these questions, let’s take a look at what’s been done so far.
