Over two minutes of Pacific Rim greatness
My expectations are getting dangerously high for Pacific Rim. This is never a good thing. Check out this trailer and tell me if I’m wrong. Add in Guillermo de Toro, Idris Elba, Ron Perlman and even Ellen (Glados) McLain – then tell me I’m wrong? I know! I might be wrong. It could all come […]
Fake girl geek? Er, fake girl bounty hunter?
Dorkly have channeled into the on-going debate around “fake girl geeks” with this Metroid comic strip.

Impressive ogre costume
I’m not sure whether to file this as LARP or cosplay. This ogre costume was created for Halloween and resulted in many prizes for “best costume”. The orgre was created by 6’2″ Scott Carreras who has it on sale at etsy for $2,000 and he reckons a smaller person could wear the suit – but […]
A zombie snuggie
Okay, so the description doesn’t use the word “snuggie”. I suspect that’s a copyright term now. Snuggler blanket is used instead. That doesn’t seem to do justice though. That doesn’t give the impression of shambling around the flat like a zombie. Fall asleep in this bad boy and people will know better to wake you […]
