Martin Firrell's Metascifi project--and a look at some of the actors involved...

[sgamadison.livejournal.com]

Martin Firrell is releasing a bit more information about his Men and Women of Sci-fi project that he's been working on for the last couple of years. I ran across this article today and it gives a link to his new website Metascifi--as well as tells a little bit about what it will offer. Unfortunately the link to the site didn't work for me, but it looks very exciting! TONS of actors and actresses from all kinds of sci-fi series are a part of this (I saw David Nykls, Torri Higginson, and Joe Flanigan in this article alone)--and the interview, in which Firrell reveals some details about the project and what it will mean, shares a fanboy moment from his interview with Joe Flanigan. So worth checking out.

It sounds like it's going to be pretty awesome--kind of an ongoing public conversation about sci-fi, with new material being added regularly. I love how dedicated Nathan Fillion was to being part of the project, despite the pressures of filming Castle. But then he's just a big fanboy himself! :D

I've been waiting (im)patiently for Martin Firrell's work for some time now. I've watched (and downloaded copies) of all the little snippets of the actors I love XD

Here's a post (pics + quotes!) I made of some people of interest XD

Awesome! Thanks for putting it all together like that so neatly! :D

I'm a little confused by that, because it's the same link I found in an article about the project last year, when the preview was first loaded, and last year it worked.

The link that doesn't work for me is within the article I linked here. When I click on the Metascifi link there, it tells me my access is 'forbidden on this server.' Not sure what's up with that!

Martin Firrell was tweeting a lot about the project the other day, so I thought there was some new information up. Maybe it's under construction?

I wish he'd release the app already. I imagine he's trying to get a video or theatrical release first, but he announced the app two years ago.
