Someone’s taken the time to, ahem, take the Blood and Chrome trailer and share it on YouTube. Watch it before it’s YouTube yanked. In Blood and Chrome we follow a pilot with the call sign “Husher”. That’s right – a young William Adama fighting in the first Cylon war. I have to say – based […]

Mythbusters’ Grant Imahara stars in League of STEAM
It’s really worthwhile keeping your eyes open for what the League of STEAM are getting up to. About a year ago they stared with Panic at the Disco in The Ballad of Mona Lisa and a year before that Geek Native featured them hunting vampires. Well. Kinda. What next? This team they’ve managed to rope […]
Shaun the Sheep 3D coming to the Nintendo 3DS
Don’t mock. I actually think this is a good idea. It’s a good way for the 3DS to showcase its 3D capabilities and its a good way to get some cash from the franchise for Aardman. I actually think the Vita has the most to benefit from with this sort of distrubution deal (sans 3D, […]
Electric City, Tom Hank’s animated sci-fi, coming to Yahoo
Electric City is a sci-fi animation by Tom Hanks. It’s about 90 minutes long and the PR for it says it’s full of action and sci-fi adventure. Tom Hanks has been working on it for a while. It’s a future of rubble – expect in the Electric City, which survives beyond the end of the […]
Axe’s Anarchy Girls comic book ad campaign
It’s going to be an ad campaign where taking part could get you added to the graphic novel. The novel itself will be drawn as the campaign involves. The crowd, the Axe fans, get to tell the story.
The Cats RPG LARP or, er, something – alien attack, maybe?
Tom Ska is a YouTube wonder. This could be a LARP based off the Cats RPG. Okay; there are some problems with that; there is no Cats RPG that I’m aware off and the special effects here are rather better than most LARPS. However, if we move on from these problems – surely this is […]
Halo: Helljumper trailer
Helljumper is fan made Halo film. It’s due out in January 2012. Actually, Helljumper is a series of films that follows a single ODST from before the Covenant War to the Fall of Reach. The films are adapted from Tobias S. Buckell‘s short story “Dirt”. It looks awesome. Films like this go a great way […]
Nazgul: The Office
What would it be like to work in The Witch King’s office? I think it would have some perks but I would worry about the tech savvy of The Nazgul. This is the challenge the 10th Nazgul, Frank, faces. He was brought in to help with the Windows Vista upgrade. Yeah. That’s pretty evil.
This is why Sonic Screwdrivers are banned in action movies
Here’s a new series of YouTube vids to keep an eye on. It looks like Lumberjack Films aka Patrick H Willems on YouTube have landed a deal with Bleeding Cool to syndicate their geeky videos. Here’s the first one. It’s called “Sonic Screwdriver” and does a good job of explaining why we don’t get the […]
Dragon Age: Redemption – Episode 1
The first episode of Felicia Day’s Dragon Age is out. I think it’s pretty good. Do you? The debate rages as to whether the production values are high enough. I think they’re good for an online series – in essence this is an angel funded enterprise. I wonder, though, whether a Kickstarter campaign as either […]
