When Cadillac nearly drove off a cliff a decade ago by allowing the brand to become irrelevant to younger buyers snapping up BMWs instead of Sedan de Villes, it slammed on the brakes, sent its designers to the woodshed and produced the Cts, a radical stylistic departure with more angles than a Stealth fighter that reinvigorated the carmaker's entire line. Cadillac effectively tossed its land-yacht legacy down the memory hole and reemerged as a plausible competitor to Mercedes, BMW and Lexus, the troika that had been eating its luxury lunch. Cadillac’s remarkable U-turn away from the brink was

China's reported to have finalized its own stealth fighter prototype, tested in taxi runs last week. Simultaneously, Japan is rumored to be mulling its own Gps solution, to mitigate over-reliance on American tech. It's East meets West, technology style.

J-20, China's Stealth Fighter

The publication of some photos online, and official confirmation (by way of military contacts with Japan) reveal that China has been working to complete its own stealth fighter--something a little larger than the now-retired but famous U.S. F-117 stealth aircraft, and designed to compete with the newer F-22.

The J-20's existence was certainly long suspected by military observers, driven by China's rapid technological development and the fact that it had no modern stealth aircraft to rival the F-117 (which first flew in 1981) or the ultra-modern F-22 Raptor. The unveiling in state-released imagery, and confirmation the vehicle took part in taxi-tests is a fascinating trick, however,...

Alien-invasion movie offers 'top-notch visuals to rival those of any big-studio film,' one critic chimes.

An alien-invasion flick likely will top the box office this weekend ... but, no, it's not called "Skyline." Rather, it seems that "Megamind," the animated tale of a big-brained baddie with a secretly soft heart, is going to reign supreme for the second week in a row.

"Skyline," meanwhile, will compete for ticket buyers' bucks with Denzel Washington's runaway-train action movie, "Unstoppable," which also opens this weekend. "Skyline" leapt out of Comic-Con with a surprising buzz — a film no one had really heard about that, after the convention, was firmly on the fanboy radar. Universal has since taken a gamble and declined to screen the movie for the media, choosing to let the fans themselves decide if the flick is a worthy addition to the alien-invasion genre.

We're used to hearing freaky, eerie, chill-inducing news about UAVs, because they're sci-fi-esque machines of war and spying. But check this out: New research into damaged Uav flight may end up saving lives.

Rockwell Collins has been using scaled-down models of military aircraft to perform research into cutting-edge Uav automated flight control, which is nothing new in itself: Most UAVs fly themselves to some extent, and the remote "pilots" basically tell the aircraft where to fly, where to orbit or hover, and where to spy. But this new research will amaze you since it gives the fly-by-wire systems the ability to fly the aircraft when big parts--like half an entire wing--are missing.

Fly-by-wire systems have been in military and civilian aircraft for years, replacing the direct muscles-to-control surfaces link that every earlier aircraft used to use (picture comedy footage of pilots physically wrestling with the stick in a diving 'plane...

Arriving at the height of the 3-D craze, Dreamworks’ How To Train Your Dragon is set to surprise a lot of people. Dragon is a dizzy and thrilling adventure and I’m well prepared to suggest that much of it will have the same impact upon young audiences that movies like Star Wars had on me in the 80’s. Everything about it has been very meticulously designed and planned and when you look at the screen you are seeing a fully realized world.

Recently, I got a chance to sit down and have a phone conversation with the two men responsible for heading up this vision as it came to the screen, Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois (Lilo and Stitch). Both very spirited and satisfied with the film they have made, the boys talked about what it was like to work with Gerard Butler, the tricks of catching those flying...

Yes, the King of Pop has gone to meet the Emperor of Pop, and taken much of his patented weirdness with him.

Hulu Ad Time Now More Valuable than Primetime

Defying all conventional wisdom, Hulu is commanding almost double the ad rates of the Fox network during primetime, says a new study by Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. Advertisers are willing to pay more for ads that appear online because there are fewer spots per episode that inundate viewers, and in surveys, Web viewers recall the content of ads they see more accurately than traditional TV watchers. Whether or not that's a function of the younger demographic watching Hulu remains to be seen,...

Back in January we told you about the first BSG props and costumes auction that took place, and last weekend, the 2nd Battlestar Galactica Props and Costumes Auction took place. And lucky for you we had a spy lurking about and snapping some intelligence pics for Screen Rant! (Here’s a shout out to that spy, regular Screen Rant reader “790″! Thanks bud.)

The auction took place at the Pasadena Expo Hall, May 8th through 10th, presented by Propworx.

The auction had some awesome static props for your eyes to gaze upon and I wish that:

A. I was there.

B. I had more cash and space for some of these things.

It’s always good to have a Centurion stand guard

Amongst the props was Starbuck’s Viper Mark II, a Cylon Raider, the Blackbird Stealth Fighter, a full size Cylon and a skin job resurrection chamber...
