Steven Moffat interviewed by his son

January 7, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fan-made Robotech live action trailer

January 3, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There is no Robotech live action, that I’m aware of, but this juicy fan-made trailer shows you clearly what it might look like. There are certainly plenty of Robotech anime movies. Mankind uses technology claimed from a crashed alien starship to design mecha, transformable mechs, to help fight off not one – but three – […]

Star Trek: The Next Generation blooper reel

December 31, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Over 10 minutes of out-takes, bloopers and gags from Star Trek: The Generation season 2. The original ST:TNG was shot in 35mm film and so this collection has been cropped to YouTube’s 16:9 to enhance the experience. It’s not clear whether this is an official collection or not.
