Ford have come up with an interesting use for the humble garden zombie. You can use one to demonstrate the security advantages of their cars to other cars. This is an American ad. It would be illegal to air on UK TV. Why? Not because of the use of zombies (I don’t believe they even […]

Cute underworld street art
This impressive set of pictures comes to Geek Native via one of those Russian language LiveJournal blogs that spring up over night, post a lot of impressive pictures and then vanish. These blogs, if you can find them, are a great way of surfacing great content. They’re rubbish at giving credit to the original artists. […]
Eclipse Phase RPG wallpaper (via @EclipsePhase)
Just a quick post – but a good post. These sci-fi horror wallpapers come via @EclipsePhase on Twitter. That’s a reason to follow them (oh, and @GeekNative. I think one of the wisest things an RPG publisher can do is to give away wallpaper. If you can get a gamer to install your game as […]
Picture: Crab Gundam
Hurm, okay, so this isn’t really an official Gundam. It may not even be an actual grab either. Photo-shopped or not, this picture is still a visual feast and perhaps a warning not to under estimate your lunch in case it animates and chops your nose off. Or would that make it a Transformers crab?
Lego TV: The Simpsons
The opening to The Simpsons is iconic. I would imagine the music is recognised around the world (mind you; I did meet someone who claims never to have watched a single episode of The Simpons the other day…). This is another YouTube success. At the time of writing this clip was just shy of 6,000,000 […]
The Adventures of Lil Cthulhu (sanity not protected).
I think my favourite line in this 2009 animation about Lil Cthulhu is this; “Uh-oh! Lil Cthulhu is hungry after his long nap. What does he do? He eats his followers! They love Cthulhu and want to be eaten. Their souls make his tummy happy.” Worst joke? That the Crawling Chaos is so-called because the […]
Lego movie: Blade Runner (Tears in Rain)
This is a short clip but so very executed. It’s well worth the minute of your life that it’ll take. Here’s the quote; “I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-Beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be […]
Hello Thunderkitties
Glasgow artist and friend of Geek Native, Steven Anderson aka Seven Hundred is in the geek halls of fame again. This time it’s his excellent working of Thundercats meets Hello Kitty that’s to thank. As ever; t-shirts can be bought. My Mr Bat is now a collectors item.
Topcow meets Disney: the sexy princess series
I love it when things naturally sweep through the geek-o-sphere. I’ve been catching up with my geek reading today. On my Think Geek RSS feed I noticed the Wampa rug and blogged about it. Then as I read through more blogs I noticed it was old news. It had already spread around the blogs. Same […]
Nom, nom, nom – the most comfortable way to be eaten by a shark
I think I have a solution to bed time fears. If your little one is worried they’ll be eaten in the night by a monster then why not have feed them to a giant shark? Okay. Who am I kidding? This isn’t a valid idea for anyone’s kiddies. No. This isn’t for kids. This is […]
