Black Friday is approaching, fellow readers. No, I'm not talking about some sort of economic free-fall or any apocalyptic event that we might see in 2012 . I'm talking about the shopper's paradise/nightmare that is the day after Thanksgiving, where all the hot holiday items are paraded about with slashed prices galore.  

A man left with half a head after an attack by thugs has got a new skull – made of titanium. Steve Gater, 26, became a Bionic Man after being fitted with a special plate to replace the forehead he lost after the savage assault. Titanium is superstrong, light and rustproof and was used in Concorde and nuclear submarines.  

'Planet 51' – one of those animated movies filled with all-star names in the cast – is a bit of a misfire with critics. Voiced by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson , Jessica Biel and Justin Long – there is a reason those names come first, it's to distract from the story and script – 'Planet 51' is set in a faraway world where an American astronaut Capt. Charles T. Baker (Johnson) lands. Twist is, he is the alien in a world inhabited by green people in a 'Leave it to Beaver' version of 1950's suburban America.

Leave it to LOST and Alias mastermind J.J. Abrams to reboot one of sci-fi's most beloved franchises without too much bitching from the diehard Trekkies. Star Trek ($13-$20) was easily the year's best science fiction film, and one of the most successful re-launches in recent history. Travelling back to before Capt. James T. Kirk was even in Starfleet, the new Trek will keep you on the edge of your seat with a storyline worthy of its predecessors while setting the stage for more exploration in the inevita  

How could you take a British series that ended on such a dark, strange, emotionally powerfull note and completely neuter it? Don't get me wrong -- our version of the limited run British series "Life on Mars" was pretty solid, with Jason O'Mara ably taking over for John Simm as Sam Tyler, a cop who wakes up in 1973 after getting hit by a car.
