What would it be like to fight with Cloud’s Final Fantasy VII sword?

February 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

It turns out that weilding the Buster sword isn’t very easy. However, on the plus side, if you can swing it then the weight alone will do damage to anything you manage to hit with it. Which would you rather enter melee combat with? This sword of a knife? For the purposes of this question […]

X-Men: First Class mashup with Star Wars

February 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The trailer for X-Men: First Class has been out for about a week. Despite concerns about the franchise you can tell there’s real interest in this movie based on the speed at which blogs leapt on the video. You can also judge the interest levels because of the amount of First Class mashups out there. […]

Tempted by watching Disney’s latest animation Tangled? Not sure why? Perhaps you’ve seen one of their promo posters or caught a glimpse of this still in their TV trailers. That’s right. It looks like the word “sex” is hidden in Rapunzel’s hair. This isn’t the first time people have suggested Disney have done this trick. […]

Wolverine Vs Frank Miller’s The Hand

February 16, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

The Hand are the creation of Frank Miller. They’re a cross between an organised crime gang and a mystical cult. They’d not normally have anything to do with Wolverine. The two have fought in the past. In the Woverline sequel we’re expecting Mr Clawy to be involved with a bunch of ninjas. What we have […]

Pictures of Felicia Day as Dragon Age’s Tallis

February 16, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Looks like we may well have a Dragon Age video series. Felicia Day – of The Guild fame, Buffy and Dollhouse – is to thank. Day has teamed up with EA/Bioware to head up Dragon Age: Redemption. In the show she’ll play an elf assassin called Tallis, hired by the Qunari to find a rogue […]

Best Valentine’s Day card? – Fallout inspired

February 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The internet is full of geeky Valentine’s Day cards and gestures. Here at Geek Native we might have posted a song or two. Today Reddit helped surface this rather fetching Valentine’s Day 3D Fallout papercraft. In a seperate but equally popular there’s this fetching Valentine’s Day story. We were staying at a hotel this weekend […]

Crysis 2 story trailer

February 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I did not play Crysis but I’ve heard a lot about it. I heard two things; it destroys your machine and if you survive that then it is a lot of fun. The game seems to be a bit of a cross between Mass Effect and Borderlands in style. Let me justify that; there’s a […]

Sucker Punch teases with TV slots

February 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’m really looking forward to Sucker Punch. The heritage of the film speaks volumes – The 300 and Watchmen. Surely Zack Snyder has a masterpiece on his hands? Emily Browning plays Babydoll – locked away against her will but determined to survive. Together with Sweet Pea (Abbie Cornish), Amber (Jamie Chung), Blondie (Vannessa Hudgens) and […]

Bubblegut the terror of cupcakes

February 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Chris Ryniak creates monsters and critters. He’s very good at it and I encourage folks to check out his gallery. This week he created Bubblegut. This cute little monster is expected in his store but the release date and price info isn’t yet available. Chris does warn us that Bubblegut may eat all your cupcakes.
