SF Tidbits for 10/9/07

• Reminder: Subterranean is still gradually posting the contents of the Fall 2007 issue. Thus far, free fiction is available from Chris Roberson, David Prill, Jay Lake, Kealan Patrick Burke, and Livia Llewellyn.
• SciFi Weekly’s Scott Edelman responds to Stephen King’s recent “Tall Tale of Short Stories.”
• Interviews:
  • Fast Forward Radio podcast-interviews Tobias Buckell, author of Ragamuffin.
  • Mumpsimus has Geoffrey Goodwin interviewing horror writer Thomas Ligotti. [via The Swivet]
  • ActuSf interviews Steven Brust. [via Locus Online]
  • SFX interviews Zack Slatter, Executive Producer of the online episodic graphic novel The City Of Thamesis which is set in a dark parallel London.
• Orbit Books is giving away a Near-Future Dystopia Survival Kit comprised of items from ThinkGeek: an RFID-blocking wallet, a Lazer Tripwire set, a hidden wall safe, a super ear to amplify sound, and a Ninja TV remote. Check out the Orbiteer newsletter for details.
• A remastered version of the original two-part Star Trek episode “The Menagerie” will screen in select movie theaters around the country in a one-night event on Nov. 13. I only hope this isn’t a warm-up for a theatrical release of “Spock’s Brain”.
• Cinematical lists The Worst Stephen King Adaptations.
• Illusion TV lists The Top 10 Sci-Fi Mutants.
• PoeTv has video of a Darth Vader hot air balloon. I guess this is how the Empire had to travel after Luke blew up the Death Star.
