I just can’t wait until The Last Airbender makes it over here from the States to the UK (I wonder how long it would take Appa to fly that distance?) There are a few new TV slots for the movie airing on US TV in the next little while. The most recent of which has […]

Your cat knows why you need a dragon in the garden
I can’t say where this rather good picture originally came from. I found it on a LiveJournal picture community (now closed) where it was without credit. Shame. The photographer deserves recognition because its such a good picture. I like to think most gardens would be improved with the addition of a dragon or two. This […]
Hellboy artist does Lord of the Rings (aka Francesco Francavilla rocks)
I’m such a fan of Francesco Francavilla’s work. It’s wrong to describe Francesco as “Hellboy artist” if it gives the impression that’s all he does. Heck. He does so much more. However, Mr Nazgûl here and a certain Mr Witch King just happen to say “Hellboy meets Lord of the Rings” to me. I think […]
Shadow Bound by Erin Kellison (@ekellison)
Erin Kellison’s first book, Shadow Bound, is due out this month (in the States, we assume). If you’ve been running a fiction contest then perhaps look for an entry called “Touch of Twilight” as you might have your hands on a copy of the unpublished manuscript. Erin’s site has four short paragraphs to talk about […]
The 83rd Doctor Who hasn’t a clue – is made from Lego
Over at Table Town Online Andrew Summersgill has posted a lego vignette of the 83rd Doctor Who. It’s worth reading the full intro to the 83rd Doctor but here’s the vigentte and then a snippet of the witty intro. The 83rd Doctor was played by renowned sitcom actor Derek Deadman. He appeared in seasons 340-343 […]
Adidas’s footballers invade Star Wars’ famous Cantina scene
Okay, it’s well worth watching this video because it’s very well put together. I’ve had something of a Star Wars day already today so this discovery tonight seems the perfect end. Despite how clever this ad for Adidas is – I’ve mixed feelings. Does this show ball-kicking jocks invading traditional geek native land? This is […]
Will there be an Alan Wake film? What’s up with Alan Wake Live?
Remedy Games has a few people scratching their heads today. The game company behind Alan Wake put a rather interesting video up on YouTube. It’s called “Alan Wake Live” and shows a (very short) live action clip. So, what does this mean? Are we getting an Alan Wake movie? Or perhaps just a short film? […]
Lord of the Rings Online is now free to play
Lord of the Rings Online is now free to play. Although the move surprised many people it as a technique with an established history. Turbine, who run LOTRO, successfully moved Dugeons and Dragons Online to a free model. Money comes from the players buying enhancements and additions. When it comes to LOTRO it isn’t just […]
Some Doctor Who t-shirts (but can I have a Vincent Van Gogh monster one?)
For some reason good Doctor Who t-shirts are surprisingly hard to find. Have you seen one with a TARDIS design, for example? I think this might be due to the way authors have royality rights over their creations and the BBC’s careful protection of the franchise. Turns out that Play.com has a fairly decent collection. […]
Nintendo to produce Mario playing cards
Nintendo – which began life making cards and dominoes – will be releasing some Mario Trump cards and Mario playing cards. As it turns out they’ve sent some bloggers and media some early copies. Now, thanks to andriasang and Anoop Gantayat we’ve got some good photos of what some of the playing card options look […]
