Naruto Unleashed series 8:1 review

December 18, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fear the spoilers – if you’re not up to 8:1 then don’t read this unless you want spoilers. If you’re beyond 8:1 then don’t give anything away in the comments. I’m a creature of habit. I picked up my Naruto DVD because it was cheap. Now I’ve started to watch the series on DVD that’s […]

Anime version of Dante’s Inferno

December 13, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

EA have teamed up with Starz Media’s Film Roman to do an anime version of Dante Alighieri‘s famous poem “Dante’s Inferno”. I’d hope to enjoy this. Despite EA’s presence you’d think that this has all the ingredients you need for a good thing; games plus anime plus hell. I’m just now that wowed by the […]

What if Michael Bay directed a Victoria’s Secret ad?

December 11, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Michael Bay is the director behind (most of) the Transformer movies. The man who does explosions, machines and fights. Can you imagine what it would be like if he was tasked (and actually did) a Victoria’s Secret ad? Good news! You don’t need to imagine it. Here it is!

New World of Warcraft ad – just annoying?

November 29, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I was sitting in a room of WoW players when I asked about the latest ad campaign. “Have you seen it?” I asked, “Seen it? I’m living it,” came one reply. Check out the video yourself but be aware that this is actually happening in game. As another WoWer said; this is an odd move […]

Star Trek and A-Team mashup

November 28, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I think this Star Trek and A-Team mashup is particularly clever because it’s such a good fit. There’s an A-Team movie coming and, I suspect, we’ll see more of the re-genned Star Trek and so this YouTube hit should have legs long enough for 2010.

November 23, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment
