Tremors, the first one, was one of my all time favourite movies. It’s my Kevin Bacon film. Now Frank Robnik at the Universty of Applied Sciences in Augsburg Germany has created an animated guide about the graboids (aka Landsharks). Voiced by David Ingram and with music from SEbastian Birkl, it’s a must watch for any […]

More LittleBigPlanet 2 awesome trailer goodness
There can be very little doubt as to the importance of the LittleBigPlanet series is to PlayStation in the West. Over here, away from Japan, the Xbox gives the PS3 absolute hell. Sony’s actually gone ahead and bought Media Molecule the developers behind LBP. It’s no surprise, then, that the effort that’s gone into LBP2 […]
Manta’s Doctor Who
Not only is Adam Hills a great comedian who pops over to this blogger’s home town of Edinburgh for the comedy festival – he happens to have a shown down under called Spicks and Specks. We therefore have both Adam Hills and Spicks and Specks to thank for sharing Manta with the world and their […]
King! review
I’m one of those people who like art – a lot – but have no talent in it at all. None. Not a squat. Show me two classics and I’ll struggle to tell you if they were painted by the same artist. So, when I say the art in King! reminds me very much of […]
Zombies vs Mutants: Animated timeline of nuclear explosions
Just the other day I was thinking about the quirks of running a post apocalyptic RPG. These days the fashionable echoes of the apocalypse tend to be zombies. Zombies that shadow our own death and current cultural concerns about bio-engineering. Roll back a few years and the post apocalytic scenarios tended to be nuclear in […]
Summer time lapse of a life-sized Gundam
Anime heroes tend to come and go. Sure, the likes of Bleach, Dragonball Z or even Pokemon have been around for years – but compare that to Batman or Superman. Compare those to the likes of the Phantom or the Shadow. I’m no expert but my gut feeling is that Gundam is one of the […]
Every lightsaber from every film
Okay; we’re not counting the animations here. That would be insane. Landstrider’s efforts are barely sane as it stands. It took him 6 hours to do this. I think it’s impressively fast. No idea how hard it is to use FCP for editing but he even went on to use After Effects for some colour […]
Not much to see: The Avengers trailer
It’s taken a while for this Comic Con presented trailer to hit the webs. Kinda odd as there’s so little to see. It’s more like an audio trailer for The Avengers. Nevetheless; you can still let us know what you make of it. Are you looking forward to the movie? Or are you so worried […]
Firefly as Star Trek
Here’s one that comes to us via the blog once known as SciFi Wire and now rebranded as Blastr. What we have here is an example of the fine art of photoshop. It’s the Firefly crew as the Star Trek crew. Which Star Trek crew? Not so sure.
Real life aimbot
This is an automatic post. I’m (hopefully) on a train right now and am speeding towards London. Using a script to time a blog post isn’t cheating. It’s (hopefully) good blogging. Using a script to improve your aim or your reaction time in a shooter is cheating though. If you make use of aimbots then […]
