Competition: Jag in Space – A Just Determination

June 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

We’re a fan of Jack Campbell here at Geek Native whether it’s for the Lost Stars series or whether he’s using the pen-name John G. Hemry. It’s the Hemry name that Jag in Space appeared under. Have you watched any of the TV show JAG? You’ll kinda know what to expect. JAG stands for “Judge […]

Short film: The Rush

June 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A tribute to StarCraft from Freddie Wong and Rocket Jump. The name of the piece comes from “Zerg Rush”. Google it. The Rush is often an effective tactic in Starcraft and I suspect that’s true of how it’s deployed here as well. Rush over to this teleport link and swarm your way to a random […]

New Supergirl trailer sets out some of the plot

June 27, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The first Supergirl trailer got people talking – some with heat, drama and tension in their voice. Why? This new superhero TV series didn’t look like it would double down on the dark and depressing. Melissa Benoist stars as Supergirl and in Global’s new trailer we get a much better idea of the plot. In […]

June 27, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s nearly 4 million people subscribed to The Piano Guy’s YouTube channel and at the time of writing nearly 2 million have watched this video. Despite being a more relaxed version of John William’s now iconic tune this piece really takes me back. The video is set in Crawdad Canyon and you may get to […]
