It’s Wednesday as I write this blog post. A rather fantastic trailer for StarCraft II – Ghosts of the Past has just appeared on YouTube. It’ll be Friday when this post goes live (I’m always busy on Friday but do like to have the blog post something after lunch) so we get to play the […]

Become slave Leia in the kitchen – or Darth
This is why it makes sense to keep an eye on the Star Wars shop. They will upload awesome products. The shop seems to be on a kitchen spree. First they had the Star Wars asteroid monster as an oven mitt. Now they take both Princess Leia and Darth Vader into the kitchen. Slave Leia […]
Pictures: Darth Vader robs bank
Crime does not pay, okay folk? Nor is crime cool. However,if you wanted to have a go at a crime which could pay – you might try robbing a bank. If you wanted to be cool – you could rob a bank dressed as Darth Vader. Hey! It’s a valid tactic. People would be confused. […]
Half-Life film: Beyond Black Mesa
Okay, for legal reasons, I think it’s best to call this a movie inspired by Half-Life. It’s a fan made production and isn’t official at all. However, it looks pretty darn good! They had a budget of $1,200. It’s taken two years to get this far. I don’t know about you but I’m already rooting […]
First Pictures: Doctor Who’s new costume
We’re doing quite well with the photographs from the Christmas Special filming at Cardiff Coal Exchange. We’ve had a sneak peak of Michael Gambon heading in for filming – good to see Dumbledore on Doctor Who. Now we’ve got access to early pictures of Matt Smith, as Doctor Who, and wearing a new jacket. There […]
Sci-fi Air Bender, oh, and Fire Bender, Water Bender and Earth Bender
Imagine a war torn future. It has man eating aliens. Weapons that can destroy planets. Can you imagine what the Air Bender from that world would be like? Can you imagine what that sci-fi Fire Bender would be like? Well! Imagine no more. Using very clever algorithmic analysis, combined with probability curves and projection theory – we […]
Optimus Prime will crush!
Check this out! Optimus Prime, a giant Optimus Prime, is alive and well in China. He’s huge. Actually, this is the size I think good old Mr Prime should be. Don’t you?
Empires of the Deep pictures
Since today is a fly to London day I’ve prepared a post to keep your attention. I thought atheletic people wearing very little clothes might do the trick. Since this is a geeky blog let’s make those people mermaids and brave aquatic warriors! These pictures are from the set of the 2011 movie Empires of […]
Star Wars’ Millennium Falcon car sun shade
The niche retail site BigBadToyStore.com has a rather fetching car sun shade. Imagine you’re looking through the windscreen of the Millennium Flacon. Okay; imagine you could get into space – you have a spacesuit – and peer inside. Yeah. Now you’re there. Star Wars car sun shades are simply awesome. If only I had a […]
Ready for Kinect, ready for tomorrow – new Xbox ad keeps the focus on motion control
It’s interesting but perhaps not surprising to see that Kinect features in the new Xbox 360 ads running in the UK this week. The new ad showcases the appearance of the new device while mentioning the hard disk size, its wi-fi and the claim that it’s “Ready for Kinect”. My old Xbox 360 is ready […]
