The Amazing Spider-Man 3D trailer

February 7, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Urm… I wonder how guilty we might be of writing off the Spider-Man movie just because it’s a reboot that’s coming to us late in the reboot era? Or perhaps some of us are worried because it’s another 3D hopeful? It’s certainly worth watching this trailer for the movie as it may change your mind. […]

Russian electric power plant explosion is like a sci-fi special effect

February 7, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This video was uploaded to YouTube today. It’ll go viral. The start seems calm and mild enough. We’re in a car listening to John Lennon. Watch the sky first – there’s a flash of bright light and then the huge glowing cloud cycles through colours. As the cars slow to halt the rolling blackout catches […]

Nitroglycerin Hand Sanitizer

February 6, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Now and then, while out checking the web for geeky goodness, this blogger comes across an item that would make for a wonderful LARP prop.

Superheroes on the D&D alignment chart

February 4, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

I think this superhero and villain alignment chart is particularly good. It takes the old school Dungeons and Dragons alignment scale and uses heroes and villains to populate it. The rest is that old D&D geeks get a kick out of the retro chic and the newer native geeks get an easy way to see […]
