Inhumans trailer – do you have a favourite yet?

June 29, 2017 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Game of Thrones: fan theories that have gone the distance

January 16, 2017 by Guest Writer Leave a Comment

Like it or not, the sense that GoT is building to a crescendo as it nears its final few seasons is growing pretty much by the episode these days. We’re now officially ahead of where the books ever took us up to, and so there’s something of a teetering inevitability to the idea that the […]

Devil Lord class: A review of Trinity Seven

January 10, 2017 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I rather liked the look of Trinity Seven from the preview Geek Native posted back in 2015 but watching it left me uncertain. The premises is kinda cool. Arata Kasuga finds himself in a world of trouble after a magical apocalypse happens and it is probably his fault. In fact, the very world we have now […]

Doctor Who: BBC releases a regenerated The Power of the Daleks

January 6, 2017 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Doctor Who fans know that the BBC destroyed early Doctor Who episodes. The sci-fi series is so old it comes from a time in which no one thought to preserve things. It sounds like madness today. The Power of the Daleks is one such collection of Doctor Who stories. Until now it was gone entirely; […]

Not pants: A review of Punch Line

December 26, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve not had great success with some of my recent anime watching. My last two reviews, one for Wish Upon the Pleiades and one for When Supernatural Battles Become Commonplace, didn’t score a recommendation at the end. They weren’t for me. I think they were better suited to teen girls. In Punch Line if the […]

What are the titans up to? Attack on Titan season 2 trailer

December 24, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

After a long wait we finally have a trailer for Attack on Titan season 2. It’s full of action and raises a host of questions. We only get to see a little of Eren Yeager but there’s plenty of Titans. In fact, it looks like there’s new special Titans insofar as they’re fighting others. There’s […]

Subaru, Subaru: A review of Wish Upon the Pleiades

December 23, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This anime didn’t hold my attention. It’s pretty and shows promise but tells the story too slowly. Earlier fears and motivations from the characters might appeal to a young girl and so its safe to theorise that I’m firmly not the target market. Weirdly, the thing I liked most about the anime was the clever […]

Fans make a Futurama live action fan film

December 22, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

That’s right – an episode, nearly, of Futurama – entirely as a fan made live action. This is some impressive stuff. Made by Cinema Relics the film makes use of sound-a-likes and some clever tricks to bring favourite characters to life. The plot is entirely what you’d expect with the crew sent off on some […]
