Are you sick and tired of hotel rooms? Don’t they all look the same? I think so. On all my business trips the hotel room is always the same thing; same model alarm clock, same TV, same branded bottled water, same, same and same. Why not do something different… you know; like a plane.

Huzzah! TopCow joins DriveThruComics
This is good news. I’m almost never at any comic shop. I’m certainly never able to go get a comic when I feel like reading one and we’re still waiting for Graphic.ly to get up to speed. In the mean time, TopCow; who manage WitchBlade, Wanted and Heroes star Ventimiglia’s new Berserker line, have joined […]
New The Karate Kid trailer
I know, I know… we’re all surprised. This is the second trailer for the new The Karate Kid movie and it still doesn’t suck. When you heard the news of the remake what was your first reaction? You thought “It’s going to suck!” didn’t you? I did. I don’t mind admitting when I’m wrong, though.
How to Train Your Dragon (not tame)
The movie’s called “How To Train Your Dragon” but I’m not the only one to hear that as “How To Tame Your Dragon” when they first caught the trailer. The good news is there’s a new trailer which is even better – and it certainly has more emphasis on the training. The movie is actually […]
Kirsten Dunst in cosplay music video (a little ecchi?)
One of the very first blog posts on Geek Native was a photograph of ex-Spider-man star Kirsten Dunst in cosplay. We new McG was involved. Now we’ve got the whole video – and when I say “we” I mean you and I. This is a project from McG and Japanese “pop artist” Takashi Murakami. What […]
Scotch tape dragon and other funky sculptures
Scotch, the company that makes some of the stickiest sticky tape, is holding a competition to see who can design the best sticky tape sculpture. It turns out some people have more tape talent than they should have. Surely the Scotch tape dragon will finish in the top three? (Via Buzzfeed)
Footage of Simon Pegg & Andy Serkis filming Burke and Hare in Edinburgh
Taken with an iPhone from the sidelines of the Burke and Hare filming shoot – nearly one glorious minute of heroes Pegg and Serkis running down a close in Edinburgh. You have to imagine there’s a great big barrel or similar rolling down behind them – that helps explain why there’s someone shouting “bounce, bounce!” […]
Mass Effect 2 collectible models
It’ll be many months before you’ll find any of these Mass Effect 2 collectible figures in shops buy you can order them online already.
I find Mass Effect 2 thoroughly addictive. What about you? Anyone want to place a guess on the most likely publisher to win the paper RPG license?
Graphic.ly grows, buys iFanBoy
Graphic.ly is making waves in the digital comic world. They’ve bought the popular community site iFanboy. This means that iFanboy will become a division of Graphic.ly and they’ll be integrating it into the iFanboy site. My real-life job tells me they’ll have a hurdle if they attempt to switch domains and, at the very least, […]
Lord of the Rings prequel: Born of Hope full length video
Born of Hope is a full length prequel to Lord of the Rings. It’s entirely fan made so let’s hope it has more support than the Nintendo (squashed) or Games Workshop (squashed) videos. Greatest of respect to uber-fan Kate Madison who spent her life savings to make this film. If you’re not certain you’ve the […]
