X-Men: First Class mashup with Star Wars

February 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The trailer for X-Men: First Class has been out for about a week. Despite concerns about the franchise you can tell there’s real interest in this movie based on the speed at which blogs leapt on the video. You can also judge the interest levels because of the amount of First Class mashups out there. […]

Star Wars Valentine’s Day

February 14, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Here’s a set of rather cute Star Wars Valentine Day’s art work. Looks like Han and Greedo make up (though I’m not sure how) over ice cream. Is ice cream like the Force? There’s the light type of ice cream and the dark type of ice cream… and, er, um, something about all that bacteria […]

AT-AT walker made from recycled PC parts

February 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I don’t think official Imperial Walkers were made out of recycled parts. Perhaps they should be – this $450 Etsy product looks pretty cool – and it’s made entirely out of old PC parts. The main body was built out of power supply boxes. The head was forged from floppy disc drive housing and the […]

Bloopers and cut scenes from “The Force”

February 9, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This week Geek Native was one of the cthuzillion blogs who ran the Volkswagen “The Force” video. We’re at it again. Watch as we climb on the Volks bandwagon and bring you the bloopers and scenes cut from “The Force”. Volkswagen would call this “The Making of”. My question is; aren’t all kids a little […]

Volkswagen’s “The Force” Super Bowl ad

February 3, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The TV ads which run during the Super Bowl (some sort of ball throwing festival, as far as I understand it) are big business. The Super Bowl attracts the attention of very many eyeballs and so advertisers spend big bucks and showcase their very best campaign messages. I hereby dub this little fellow as “Volksy […]

Alternative Star Wars is sexy and tattooed

February 2, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The photographs in this blog post are a collection from Robin Cook. These are just a sample, just enough to tempt you to go check out his blog and admire the rest. Interestingly, he calls these “Part 1”. Still not a fan of tattoos.

Lego Star Wars movie: Black Stormtrooper

February 1, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Donald Faison plays Turk in Scrubs. I think he’s in Skyline too. Turns out he’s a bit a geek, perhaps even a geek native, at the very least he’s a Star Wars fan. Faison wrote, directed, edited and, get this, animated this entire Lego Star Wars movie. It’s nearly 3 minutes long. In it the […]

The Old Republic: Operation Flashpoint Taral V

January 31, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This video for Star Wars: The Old Republic looks pretty neat. A crack team of experts go in to rescue a Jedi. Star Wars: The Old Republic is a MMO RPG from BioWare. How old is the Old Republic? It’s set thousands of years before Darth Vader. Initial press releases for The Old Republic said […]

Star Wars Bookends: The Mos Eisely Cantina in your home

January 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

These bookends are awesome. Then again, at nearly $500 from Amazon, you’d hope they’d be mega awesome. If you fancy one and you’re in the UK then Giant Busts (what a name!) is the ony supplier. The cost? Currently, £225. They’re sold by a vendor called Gentle Giant and rather frustratingly their site seems to […]
