A New Cinefantastique? It's Rumors Time

Cinefantastique has a web site at cinefantastiqueonline.com. So if you're surfing the web and you discover cfqmag.com, you might naturally wonder if there's another site with a similar monicker. (After all, cinefantastique.com is currently just a blank placeholder.)

And yet: At the cfqmag.com site, there is a note dated November 14, 2009, that reads: "At present, this website is a placeholder for future construction. In the meantime, visit www.cinefantastiqueonline.com for news and reviews of science fiction film and television."

Someone has already posted a response to the site, asking if this means there will be a return to print for Cinefantastique magazine. No response yet. It might, after all, just reflect plans to replace cinefantastiqueonline.com with the shorter cfqmag.com URL. But it's tantalizing nonetheless, especially in this age of a dearth of good science fiction media magazines.
