Geek and fan favourite Felicia Day has the staring role in a Syfy original werewolf hunting movie. Once again those lucky blighters at Comic-Con got to watch a trailer but unlike those slyly recorded copies which are YouTube leaking over the weekend – the SyFy Channel very wisely decided to publish their trailer. The movie […]

Smallville RPG published by Margaret Weis Productions
Over at DriveThru RPG you can now buy the PDF version of the Smallville RPG. Margaret Weis Productions has the license for the game – they seem to do well at pitching and winning for this sort of license – and the 192-page, full-colour, hardcover rulebook is expected to be out in August 2010. That […]
Watch before it’s yanked: The Walking Dead trailer
We’ve already had Captain Jack’s Comic Con address make it online. Now we’ve got a long trailer for The Walking Dead air at Comic Con and make it to YouTube. I can only imagine the crowd was asked not to record the trailer. Maybe not. Whatever the situation; we do now have 4 plus minutes […]
Priest Trailer – this was a vampire attack!
It seems to be a gamble turning any graphic novel into a film. Sometimes they get them so wrong. Sometimes they get it so right. What you can’t do is judge the film by the trailer. Rubbish trailers are made for great films. All too often, great trailers are made for poor films. That said; […]
Awesome DC Universe Online Trailer is the awesome
I’m not sure if the title is clear enough; this trailer of the DC Universe Online is awesome. It’s like watching a beautiful train wreck. You can’t believe what you’re seeing and yet it happens. You don’t want to watch any more and yet you can’t look a way. As with any great trailer you’ll […]
Um. Yeah. The Assault Rife controller
I’m really not a shooty-shooty type of gamer but I do like controllers that add to the game play. Mario Kart, for example, was so much better with a steering wheel. It’s not surprising that there are controllers out there to try and get your attention for smash hits like Call of Duty. I’ll just […]
Tron Girl
Got to say it; Tron Girl might be my favourite Barely Political music video. Just to set the record straight; Tron Girl is slyly timed – we’re all set and ready for the next Tron movie. Comic Con is apon us. Just the whisper of Tron will get us interest. Check out the Tron Girl […]
Watch it before it’s yanked: Captain Jack Sparrow addresses Comic Con
Yup! That’s right. The marketing machine around Pirates of the Caribbean 4 – due out in 2011 – is impressive and in full source. Johnny Depp stars as Captain Jack Sparrow, in full costume and in full swing, in a “get involved” pitch to a happily amused Comic Con audience. You can tell it goes […]
PS3′ inFAMOUS 2 oozes graphic novel goodness
PlayStation and Sucker Punch have posted a video that shows off the impressive 2D cut scenes in the forth-comng inFAMOUS 2. It really does give me the “well written comic book” vibe. I’ve not even played inFAMOUS – but did watch a few minutes of it being played; enough for me to recognise a quality […]
Brad Pitt wins bidding war over zombie movie World War Z
MTV have a good scoop on the future of Max Brooks‘ World War Z series. The author confirmed that Brad Pitt would be doing the movie. The rights to the novel had been in a bit of a bidding war between Plam B Entertainment (Brad Pitt’s company) and Appian Way (Leonardo DiCaprio‘s company). Judging from […]
