Falling SKies – Mankind trailer

February 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Over in the States there’s been a second trailer for Steven Spielberg’s Falling Skies series. It’s going to air on TNT so I’m hopeful it’ll make its way to the UK. This a DreamWorks TV production and features the likes of Drey Roy, Maxim Knight and Moon Bloodgood. Isn’t that the best name ever? I […]

Anime X-Men trailer

February 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We’ve got X-Men First Class to look forward to and worry about at the same time. There’s also another new X-Men franchise on the way. That’s Madhouse‘s anime version of X-Men for Animax. This is the same pair that produced the anime Ironman and Wolverine. The anime starts on April the 4th. We’re expecting to […]

Pictures of Felicia Day as Dragon Age’s Tallis

February 16, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Looks like we may well have a Dragon Age video series. Felicia Day – of The Guild fame, Buffy and Dollhouse – is to thank. Day has teamed up with EA/Bioware to head up Dragon Age: Redemption. In the show she’ll play an elf assassin called Tallis, hired by the Qunari to find a rogue […]

Lily Cole joins Doctor Who

February 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The BBC have announced the Lily Cole will join Doctor Who. By the sounds of it she’ll be there for just one episode in which she plays a creature haunting a pirate ship. In a press statement issued via the BBC, Lily said; It is a great script and fun character and I’m glad to […]

Kneel before ZOD (er, kitchens)

February 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What if General ZOD made kitchens. Rather than bother Superman with general world conquering ambitions imagine that ZOD was content to build high quality kitchen units. Can you imagine that? Maybe this will help. Makes sense. Right? You’d be certain that the workers in the kitchen unit assembly warehouse worked hard, effectively and had your […]

New Heavy Metal series will be a live action

February 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The animated Heavy Metal movie is a cult classic. I remember it fondly. My ears perked up when I heard that the French company who own the franchise have successfully pre-sold the show, based on the pilot, to more than 20 countries. Variety has the news but also the twist in the story. This will […]

Fan-made Superman animation; short but punchy!

February 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is a very short video. It’s only 2:35 long and most of that is the credits – however, watch to the end because you get a short scene with Robb Pratt, the animator, who reveals extra layers of cleverness. You see, this isn’t just a quality piece of animation. This Superman cartoon is drenched […]

Bloopers and cut scenes from “The Force”

February 9, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This week Geek Native was one of the cthuzillion blogs who ran the Volkswagen “The Force” video. We’re at it again. Watch as we climb on the Volks bandwagon and bring you the bloopers and scenes cut from “The Force”. Volkswagen would call this “The Making of”. My question is; aren’t all kids a little […]

Beavis and Butthead are coming back

February 3, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Huzzah. Beavis and Butthead are coming back. The one-time cult classic animation will be making a return to MTV. In a bizzare twist MTV had Canadian child pop star Justin Bieber break the news in a tweet. I’m not sure why they thought Bieber was a good match for the show. Perhaps they’re trying to […]

Volkswagen’s “The Force” Super Bowl ad

February 3, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The TV ads which run during the Super Bowl (some sort of ball throwing festival, as far as I understand it) are big business. The Super Bowl attracts the attention of very many eyeballs and so advertisers spend big bucks and showcase their very best campaign messages. I hereby dub this little fellow as “Volksy […]
