The working title for this project still seems to be Defiance although I’m sure it was announced as One Earth at the start of the year. The TV Defiance series is being produced by Universal Cable Productions, written by Rockne O’Bannon – who’s worked previously on Farscape, Warehouse 13, Alien Nation and DSV. The MMO […]

Terminix channels Lovecraft horrors via the TV
I love the Scottish summer. It’s my favourite week of the year. One advantage of Scotland’s weather is that there’s far less pesky insects. There’s nothing that’s really going to eat your house. We’re not all so lucky. Over in the States there’s a company called Terminix that earns its income from helping homeowners deal […]
The Church of Omega [Doctor Who, Speculation]
At the start of the year, before series 6 of Doctor Who, this blog speculated whether Benedict Cumberbatch would play Omega in the new series. That would mean Geek Native thought Omega might be making a return. The argument – and other bloggers have also made it – is a simple one. This is the […]
Blade – the daywalker’s anime trailer
Madhouse, Marvel and Animax have teamed up to put together an anime version of Blade. Is it about time? Did you know Blade first made a comic book appearance back in 1973 when he appeared in The Tomb of Dracula #10? Wikipedia could be tricking me for all I know; he feels a far younger […]
The Doctor Who anime
This is a fan made Doctor Who anime that shows that a quality, non-CBBC, Doctor animation could work. The vid is about 13 minutes long but it’s best thought of as an extended trailer that shows lots of the plot rather than an actual mini-clip. Our Doctor is the Third Doctor and we have daleks, […]
Doctor Who – huge spoilers for episode 13
If you’re worried about the risk of spoilers then stop reading this. Go back here and read something else. This post is just speculation but it reaches towards sources with better and more official connections in the search for insight and solutions to the “I can’t cope with the suspense” problem. The 13th episode of […]
Doctor Who – A Good Man Goes to War prequel
Have you caught up with Doctor Who and “The Almost People”? There’s quite a cliff hanger at the end of it… and the next episode will be the last for a while. Annoying, this series of Doctor Who is split in the middle and the show picks up again towards the end of the year. […]
Karigurashi no Arrietty / The Borrowers Arrietty
Based on the classic book The Borrowers, Studio Ghibli‘s latest film is Karigurashi no Arrietty. The good news is that the anime will get shown at a number of UK locations before its general release. The Barbican gets the film on the 6th of July and on the 18th and 20th of June, as part […]
Who is Madame Kovarian? [speculation, spoilers]
This is a blog post about series six of Doctor Who. It contains nothing but speculation and widely commented on factoids. If you’re allergic to spoilers – or rather, the possibility of spoilers – then stop reading now. This post contains no actual spoilers (unless you’re behind in your Doctor Who watching) as it contains […]
In the Skin of the Universe
I’ve only just found this rather cleverly made Doctor Who tribute video. It’s made from season 5 parts and pretty much keeps the focus on the Doctor and Amy. The video is also wise enough to keep “the silence will fall” warnings as a common theme. What a fantastic bit of fan editing! What do […]
