Awesome or Off-Putting is a weekly delve into cryptozoology, ufology, aliens, medical marvels, scientific wonders, secret societies, government conspiracies, cults, ghosts, EVPs, ancient artifacts, strange facts, odd sightings or just the plain unexplainable.
Back in the sixties the USSR did a pretty good job of shrouding their space program in secrecy. In fact – as we understand it they even made their cosmonauts mop their way up the flight ramp so the press would just think they were janitors. That’s very subversive.
Really though – they did keep it pretty well hidden. And when a bunch of orbiting, thick accented human beings died in at least 3 separate incidents the world at large didn’t even know about it.

Well don’t tell Jodie Foster, but she needn’t have made that one movie where she made love to her dead alien father on an other-planet beach. That’s because the premise of that movie – Contact we think it was called – was about how the world would react if it ever received contact from another planet.
Problem is that film was made 20 years after the fact.

Die Hard 4, Rocky Balboa and the new Indiana Jones were really all just warm-ups for one almighty action comeback movie – Under Siege 3.
Yeah, you heard. Buoyed up by the recent success of his peers, Steven Seagal has decided that he’s going to follow suit and make Under Siege 3. And there’ll be none of this ‘acknowledging the aging process’ malarkey, either – if Steven Seagal gets his way, then Under Siege 3 will be set in outer space where he’ll get to kung-fu a bunch of evil aliens.
So that’s Under Siege 3, coming soon to a theatre near you. Provided that the theatre nearest you happens to be the theatre playing inside Steven Seagal’s wonky and somewhat deluded brain.

Golf games tend to be great fun, when they’re done right at least.
But they can be a bit boring and samey – even the cutesy titles like Everybody’s Golf have far too many identikit competitors these days. So it’s nice to find a golfing game to wile away the minutes that offers something different – golf in space.
Gravitee plays a very simple but strikingly addictive game, seeing the player attempting to swing a ball around the gravitational pulls of numerous planets to land it through a ring. It’s great, and it involves some physicsy/mathsy type stuff too, which is nice.
It also lends itself nicely to compulsive players, constantly challenging you to beat your own high scores as well as those of your opponents. Not that hecklerspray fall in to the trap of being over-competitive, oh no…
Waste Some Time Here:
