Dragon Age: Redemption – Episode 1

October 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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 […]

Felicia Day’s Dragon Age Redemption trailer

October 7, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s perhaps not right to say “they’re making a Dragon Age web series”. It feels more like Felicia Day is making the series. SHe’s a co-writer, co-producer and headline star. In fact, it was via Felicia Day’s Google+ stream that I was first made aware of this trailer. That was a few days ago. Minutes […]

What’s so great about Doctor Who?

October 1, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A shout out to Deviant artist Wallabri for this quick, effective and funny Doctor Who comic. You should check Wallabri’s Deviant Art collection though; I especially like this Portal 2 image. Anyway; on with the Who!

Pictures: The Wedding of River Song [spoilers]

September 27, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The BBC has released pictures from the Doctor Who series finale: The Wedding of River Song. A few days ago a Spanish site called Pizquita was able to publish a leak of a bunch of pictures – but although the pictures looked real, I was worried about a site that tried to auto-download software so […]

Firefly fandom may turn a college professor into a criminal

September 27, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Respect to James Miller, a professor at teh University of Wisconsin-Stout. Miller had a poster on his door that features Mal and a quote from Captain Tightpants himself. It was torn down by campus police. Miller was warned he was risking “disorderly conduct” and that any future posters would be treated as such. His response? […]

Beyond the Mythbusters trailer

September 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I wake up to the TV switching on the Discovery Channel. It’s a pretty good way to ensure there’s something decent on that is capable of pulling the sleepy brain into the world of wakefulness. The Mythbuster trailer is particularly good. It’s good because it sings “hallelujah!” at me and because I’m looking forward to […]

Will Doctor Who be cancelled?

August 29, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 4 Comments

Doctor Who makes the British red top newspapers often. Why? It’s an easy way to gain attention from blogs like Geek Native and even much bigger blogs that could drive some traffic. In fact, I might even speculate that the offline readership of these right wing rags contain enough people who either see Doctor Who […]

Doctor Who: Prequel to Let’s Kill Hilter

August 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The BBC have published a prequel clip to Let’s Kill Hilter. The teasers to the first half of the season where tiny little things; you’d sometimes just get a few seconds of play. That’s not the case this time around; we’re sneaking towards the two minute mark.
