World War Z trailer

November 9, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The trailer for World War Z is dividing people. Some folk reckon it looks cool – a strong zombie film with an engaged military. Others dislike it. Some worry that it’s too much of a departure from World War Z by Max Brooks. There are those that see the zombies as too much of a […]

November 9, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

MCM Expo manage to grow London Comic Con every year. With the rise of the convention it comes as no surprise that the amount and quality of cosplay also increases.

Wizards of the Coast’s owners, Hasbro, deny Disney rumours

November 9, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

After the news of Disney buying Lucasfilm and beginning work on three more Star Wars films there were whispers that Disney was also interested in buying Hasbro. Buying Hasbro would make some sense for Disney because of the rights the toy company owns. For example, with Marvel on board Disney has a modern day Universe […]

Review of Under the Dragon’s Tail

November 8, 2012 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

Under the Dragon’s Tail, by Maureen Jennings, is a Murdoch Mysteries novel and historical whodunit of around 300 pages. The first Murdoch Mysteries novel I reviewed was “Except the Dying”, and you can find it, if you wanted, a couple pages back on Geek Native. Suffice to say I enjoyed it, and was looking forward […]

Mortal Kombat Vs Gangnam Style with The Super Zeroes

November 8, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There are still some Gangnam videos worth sharing because they’re surreal, weird and entirely geeky. This Mortal Kombat Vs Gangnam Style video from The Super Zeroes is certainly one of those. The Super Zeroes feel like a group worth watching. They’ve already done a Marvel themed flash mob before this and I suspect we’ll see […]
