Howl’s Moving Paper Castle

April 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Could you build Howl’s Moving Castle out of paper? Would you? It’s quite a papercraft project. It’s been done! Check out this imgur gallery for the full collection. There’s a sample below. This is a good year to be remembering Howl’s Moving Castle. Some Geek Native readers may know it only as Hayao Miyazaki‘s anime. […]

Day of the Moon clips pile on the creep

April 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The BBC have unwrapped two more trailer clips for Day of the Moon. The second one, in particular, is heavy with creep. The Silence are so very Moffat. The whole last series was, in part, about forgetting people completely – that’s why we have “Rory the Roman”. The Weeping Angels are scary because their power […]

IronDie competition from UnderDiscussion

April 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

The gamer podcast UnderDiscussion (itunes link) is a year old. Their last podcast reached over thousand uniques – that’s traffic many blogs would be jealous of! To mark their first anniversary the team are giving away some IronDie. These are dice cast from solid metal and shipped in from Italy. These metal die are up […]

Borderlands awesome marriage proposal

April 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

I really enjoyed Borderlands. I think Gearbox derserves a second pat on the back for the work they put into this marriage propsal video too. Way cool fan service! I wouldn’t have predicted Claptrap would have behaved like this, though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fii-KPEmcMw If you’re wondering what a fly on the wall would have seen as the […]

Ridiculous Adipose strangulation warning

April 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I was given a stretchy anti-stress Adipose toy for Easter. Well – Easter eggs are so passé! What’s an anti-stress Adipose? It’s an Adipose (introduced in “Partners in Crime, Tenth Doctor, series 4) that can be squished and streched. I’ve named mine Wellington. Wellington comes with some 100% stupid safety instructions. Before we get to […]

Dr Who: Day of the Moon trailer

April 23, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Did you enjoy the Impossible Astronaut? Day of the Moon is the episode that follows – if you’re worried about spoilers then you’re unlikely to want to watch this. If you’re not worried spoilers then this is post for you! What did you make of The Silence? Scary or over rated? Personally, I like the […]

The Caladon Falls for Savage Worlds Indiegogo project

April 23, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We have the PDF for Caladon Falls and have had it for a while. It’s popular, scores an average of 4/5 on RPGNow and has generated a lot of “Can we have it print?” requests. This Indiegogo project is to turn the electronic Savage Worlds supplement from Savage Mojo into a 750 issue limited print […]

Fatality – is this a Mortal Kombat love song?

April 22, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Want a way to check out some of the more gory fatality moves in the latest Mortal Kombat? Want to smirk at the juxtaposition of a violent computer game and a love song? Want to remember Big Trouble in Little China and the computer game franchise it started but rarely gets the credit for?
