Rewriting the plot: A look at Eureka Seven AO part 2
In my review of Eureka Seven AO p1 I mentioned I hadn’t seen the first series, liked the anime but struggled to get into the characters. Part two is different for the obvious reason – I know the characters better now. It’s also different for the less obvious reason – the great big gun that […]
Base.com leaves Comic Con deals running
I wasn’t at Comic Con London but Base.com clearly were. The retailer put on range of big anime discounts on some popular titles. It’s the sort of deal you hear about when it’s too late and kick yourself. Good news; either by accident or by design, this Friday evening, the special Comic Con page is […]
Worth a shout: Basic Adventuring 101
I watched the pilot episode of Basic Adventuring 101 and then wanted to watch another. It was then that I discovered the series was pending the outcome of a Kickstarter.

Don’t blink: Arrow features in this Flash trailer
While I’m waiting for Arrow s2 to drop onto Netflix UK the CW team are teasing us with their next project. Flash has been associated with Arrow in the TV show… and this helps. Flash feels like a tricky show to make work but the Arrow team have proven their skills. What do you think? […]
SyFy step up the sci-fi with Dominion
Rather than starting at the beginning so every one can catch up – SyFy have done the mature geek thing of launching a series that follows on from where the movie left off. The catch? I don’t think I ever got around to watching Paul Bettany in Scott Stewart’s Legion film even though it ticks […]
