There was a sneak peek trailer for Captain America: The First Avenger during the Super Bowl. In it, we got to see a second or so of Hugo Weaving as The Red Skull. The keen eye of Buzzfeed caught and shared that image. Here it is. So what of the actual trailer itself? Surely someone […]

Cowboys & Aliens and the #superbowl slot
Today lots of people will be watching one giant sports game. Sports fans from all across the USA – in fact, all across the world – will sit down to watch two teams of very highly paid sportsmen try and win a ball game. The game is important because a lot of money get thrown […]
The Nicolas Cage Matrix
Not sure this is all together a visually impressive infographic. It’s a clever one though and it’s already provoked some discussion here – that rather proves to me it’s a good infographic. What do you think? Are these  Nicolas Cage films in the right zones in the Nicolas Cage Matrix? Or have The Shiznit put […]
Magic: the Gathering Tactics – Green mana trailer
We’ve already manage to get our geeky native fingers on the black mana trailer for Magic: The Gathering Tactics. Now it’s the turn of the green mana trailer. You know green – it’s all about big and powerful creatures. It can be slow to start but once it is in full swing then it’s very […]
Exalted comic volume 1 review
White Wolf have have just released a PDF of Exalted Volume 1 of the new Exalted comic. I thought I’d check it out. I was expecting to be pleased. The artwork in Exalted has always appealed to me. I was bang in White Wolf’s target market for the game – an anime fan, someone looking […]

Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan told in 60 seconds with puppets
Khaaaan! If you need to remind yourself or quickly sum up The Wrath of Khan to someone who’s been living in a cave for the last twenty years then this animation should, in a pinch, work well for you. Hand-made puppets ooze DIY appeal. I don’t think it matters how the animation actually works out… […]
Heavy metal, lego and fantasy combat – what’s not to love?
Three shades of “We’re not worthy” for Paganomation and their impressive Lego animation. It’s a simple concept – a lumberjack, a humble man, is suddenly granted the greatest power of all time. What happens? Things get awesome! I thought “Paganomation” was a clever blend of the words “pagan” and “animation”. I was wrong. A key […]
I Am Optimus Prime: the music video
Screen Team have applied their tried and tested comedy music skills to the Transformers. The result is a parody of The Time by Black Eyed Peas. As is increasingly common with these YouTube hits you can even buy this track from iTunes if that takes your fancy. What’s to say in reponse to lyrics like […]
Primeval: Extinction Event review
I enjoyed Primeval: Extinction Event far more than I thought I would. This is not the case of me judging a book by the cover – that features the character Abby Maitland, played by the actress Hannah Spearrit and would therefore rate very highly – but me worrying too much about the troubled Primeval TV […]
