If you haven’t heard about this yet, don’t get too excited. This is not our Invisible Man. Instead, this will be a sequel to H.G. Wells’ original story that focuses on the British nephew of the original Invisible Man. The story is to be set during World War II. David Goyer will write and direct the film.
Well, I don’t think I need to tell you that I think Universal totally missed the boat on this one. They own the rights to our Invisible Man and yet they choose to ignore it and make a film that is a sequel of the original. What a shame.

Well, it took them four months, but The Invisible Man bboard is back on SciFi.com! If you’re a new reader and don’t know what the heck I’m talking about, please refer to my January 28, 2007 post entitled Urgent: The Sci Fi Invisible Man Forum Needs Your Vote!
You’ll be happy to know that I-Man had the most votes and beat out all the other shows in the poll. Way to go I-Man fans! Now I’m hoping (hint, hint) that there will be lots of support for the I-Man bboard so that we don’t run the risk of losing it again like we did before because of disuse.
What’s really cool is that the administrators are asking the fans of each show to create the introductory message for their show’s forum. Here’s a message explaining about that from Admin1 from the Sci Fi forum:
Welcome to our new forums for some long-time favorite shows. We invite you to work together to create a 30-word-max message that introduces your show and invites forum members to participate. For example, Doctor Who’s message is “Fancy a trip in a TARDIS? With ten Doctors and countless Companions to choose from, you’ll have plenty to talk about here in the official Doctor Who discussion forum.”
You might want to use this thread as your working area, then, when you’re reading, PM your proposals to admin and admin1!
If you’re interested in helping to create the introductory message for the I-Man forum, I hope you’ll go to the “SCI FI Favorites” thread and we can brainstorm together!

Posted in "The Invisible Man", Interviews, Videos, Vincent Ventresca at 1:24 pm by Amanda Rogers
A few years back there existed a really great website dedicated to Vincent Ventresca called vincentventresca.net. The site was attractive, well organized, and a fan could find virtually everything about Vince’s roles and career there. Danielle, a very talented fan, created and ran the site.
Well, life got busy for Danielle and the website is no more, but a whole slew of her videos she either saved or created are residing on YouTube for our enjoyment. Danielle was kind enough to let me post links to her videos so that you can easily find and enjoy them too. She’s got a great assortment of videos.
To start things off, here’s the actual trailer used to advertise the pilot of The Invisible Man.

Here’s a great interview with Vince where he answers questions from the old Invisible Man bboard. The audio seems to be a bit out of sync and it abruptly stops after seven minutes, but it’s still worth watching.

Danielle created a whole slew of I-Man music videos that are a lot of fun to watch.

Here are a few little known facts about The Keeper that you might find interesting.
- Claire’s name was originally supposed to be Kyle. Yes, Kyle. I kid you not. Somewhere along the way it was changed to Claire.
- The Keeper is an expert in Animal Defense Mechanisms and is a D.V.M. Makes sense since she had all those animals in her lab.
- Claire is also a M.D., a specialist in neurotoxicology and cellular biology, among other things.
- Matt Greenberg established from the beginning of the series that The Keeper knew Darien’s brother, Kevin, well (even though we didn’t find out until the episode Brother’s Keeper). In fact, Matt had intended that Darien would eventually find out about the relationship between Kevin and The Keeper.
Did you learn something new? Well, stay tuned and I’ll share more Invisible Man Fun Facts in future posts.
