The last thing I watched which was directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts was Kong: Skull Island. That was one of my favourite Kong remakes. I think this trailer for the new Destiny game is even better. If that Exo whipping the new Guardians into action sounds like Nathan Fillion then it is because he is. Fillion […]
Sneak look at the Firefly FFO and trailer

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters trailer
The trailer for Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters is out and it looks good. The distribution strategy seems to be a bit of a mess, the main sites carrying the news are using a geo-locked embed (it’s not as if the movie will only air in the States) and YouTube is a glut of reaction […]

Respect to James Miller, a professor at teh University of Wisconsin-Stout. Miller had a poster on his door that features Mal and a quote from Captain Tightpants himself.

Dr. Horrible, act 1, as 8-bit NES sim
A geek with the funky moniker of DoctorOctoroc has propelled himself to geek god hood by taking the time and skills to recreate act 1 of Joss Whedon‘s Dr Horrible as a (theoretical) 8-bit NES game. He’s even letting you watch in HD or download the soundtrack from a specially created microsite. It’s a great […]
