Doctor Who on stage at Glastonbury

June 28, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Last night I saw a couple of tweets suggesting that they had Doctor Who on stage at Glastonbury. I wondered who it was: David Tennant or Matt Smith. Turns out it was Matt Smith – however, he’s the actor. They also had Doctor Who on-stage because, amazingly, they played an electro version of the famous […]

Super cute pet AT-AT video

June 27, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Right now this video from Patrick Boivin has only had 2,364 plays. That’s the count at the time of writing – I’m sure that number will have mushroomed by tomorrow morning. Mr Boivin is quickly making a name for himself as a film maker with his finger on the geek pulse – and, for the […]

Still want? DC Villain plushies?

June 27, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The response to Entertainment Earth’s plushie collection seems to have been positive so far. Geek Native’s Twitter followers like the Lord of the Rings plushies and then the Justice League plushies earned a squee or two. I was starting to believe it was a no-brainer; these plushies were bound to be popuplar. There’s a new […]

Studio Ghibli RPG: Ninokuni looks impressive

June 27, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The gameplay trailer for Ninokuni looks really good. Coming to the PS3 in 2011 (at least in Japan) is an RPG that’s been developed by Level-5 and the famous anime creators Studio Ghibli. The RPG follows the young Oliver, from Hotriot after the death of his mother Arie. A magical doll, given as a present, […]

Will the Yeti make a return for the Doctor Who Christmas special?

June 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Peter McKinstry is an artist and concept designer who’s worked on Doctor Who since new Who series 2, Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures. On his website he’s published a new concept art image. It looks rather impressive. What’s more – the concept art has sparked speculation. Could this be a Yeti? The Yeti were […]

Doctor Who: Aliens and Creatures review

June 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is a review of the RPG supplement Doctor Who: Aliens and Creatures. It’s the first supplement that I’m aware of from Cubicle 7 for their prestigious Doctor Who license. In other words; you need to have a copy of Adventures in Time and Space before you can play this supplement. That said; I think […]

Dr Who: The Big Bang videos

June 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Big Bang is the series finale of the fifth season of the new Doctor Who. It follows on from The Pandorica Opens. A word to the not-so-wise. If you’ve not seen the drama up to the end of the season then these videos could contain spoilers for you. It seems like the Doctor is […]

Oh no: Smurfs movie looks awful

June 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

At the risk of pre-judging something – at the risk of doing the cinematic equivalent of judging a book by it’s cover – the live action Smurfs movie looks awful. Even the music sounds… wrong. I’m not sure that’s the real Neil Patrick Harris. Some sort of android? Or am I being cruel? Watch the […]

First photo from the new Primeval

June 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Primeval isn’t exactly dead. Normally we’re used to the Americans making a great show, exporting it to the UK, getting us hooked – only for the US audience to fall away and the network cancel it. You know; The Sarah Connor Chronicles and the slow to start but great towards the end Dollhouse spring to […]

Starcraft 2 trailer looks impressive

June 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It seems like a hundred years ago when I had a loan copy of Starcraft, played it like mad but had to give it back just before I finished it. I also remember a Starcraft that was a RTS game. In fact, it was probably the last RTS that I enjoyed playing. I’m interested in […]
