7 of the most annoying gamers on the internet

December 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I love playing computer games online with friends. I almost hate playing online games with anonymous groups because one of them is almost certainly a little shit who has spent the school holidays learning how to ruin the game for everyone else. I sense Dorky feels my pain and knows of 6 more annoying gamer […]

The Amazing Spider-man 2 official trailer

December 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

They pitch The Amazing Spider-man 2 as his “his greatest battle” and this trailer seems to back that up. There’s Andrew Garfield playing Peter Parker/Spider-man and Emma Stone as Gwen Tracy. Up against them is Jamie Foxx as an Electro who appears to be far more powerful than his comic book alternative and Paul Gimatti […]

The Alien Xenomorph plush that cuddles and bites

December 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is cute. And deadly. This plush Xenomorph actually has a set of attack teeth that shoot out from its mouth, Alien style, when you give it a cuddle and squeeze it. Why? Perhaps it is a reminder not to go around squeezing aliens? The mouth is plastic and the rest is all polyester. The […]

Pick your side: Knight & Dragon review

December 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Knight & Dragon is a full colour comic book with a twist from Improper Books. The bar was set high by Improper in 2013 with Butterfly Gate – a “silent” sci-fi that threw a brother and sister into a tough sci-fantasy world. Knight & Dragon is also “silent”. That’s to say there’s no written dialogue; […]

Demon bloodlines: A review of Blue Exorcist part 1

December 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The action kicks off pretty quickly in Blue Exorcist. Here’s how it flies for quick-to-anger but basically well-intended Rin Okumura. First, he finds out that a little girl being terrorised by “bad fairies” isn’t making it up; they’re real and he can see them. He next finds out that his quirky father isn’t just a […]

December 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

300: Rise of an Empire isn’t just a sequel to 300 nor is a prequel. It’s both. This movie, directed by Noam Nurro and starting Sullivan Stapleton, Eva Green, Lena Headey, Hans Matheson, Jack O’Connell, Callan Mulvey, David Wenham and Rodrigo Santoro, takes place before, during and after the action in 300. This is a […]
