This isn’t even new. This video is dated 2008… but it’s new to me so I wanted to share. Perfectly balanced, this mashup is 50% Wall-e and 50% Terminator and manages to be something greater than the sum of its parts. Now, now, before you question whether this concept could even work; as yourself one […]

100,000 paper airplanes
This video was arranged by a fellow called Rob Bliss as his entry into the 2009 ArtPrize. He’s an event planner. A few seconds into the vid you can see just how much plannning an event like this would have taken. the music is “Olsen Olsen” by Sigur Ros. It’s just perfect for the video/artwork. […]
Is it a Death Star or is it a watermelon?
We don’t mix Star Wars and food often enough. Okay. Let’s try this then. A simple game inspired by Kuriositas (go there to check out a larger collection of pictures). Are these Death Stars or are they watermelons? What?? Since when were stupid questions banned from blogs?
U900 – the amigurumi band
Certainly worthy of Geek Native’s growing collection of amigurumi posts are U900. Not only are U900 cute amigrurmi, they’re animated by stop motion and video and they’re a band. No ordinary band either; no, U900 make awesome use of the Japanese Ukulele!
MIKA’s Kick-Ass music video
What we have here is MIKA doing the official Kick-Ass music video. I know it’s not cool to say so but I rather enjoyed MIKA’s debut album, especially the single Grace Kelly. To my untrained hears he did manage to remind me of Freddie Mercury. I can only imagine this video is part of MIKA’s […]

Since it’s launch GUMSHOE has picked up other big names; including Kenneth Hite who produced a new version of Call of Cthulhu called Trail of Cthulhu with […]

The vampire heroine leaves Harris Publications to join the likes of the Green Hornet, Zorro, Armies of Darkness and Red Sonja at Dynamite. As you’d expect of a vampire – Vampirella is quite old. The comic first appeared in 1969 with a black and white cover by […]
SyFy moves us Three Inches
The SyFy channel (still called SciFi here in the UK; for now) has commissioned a 90 minute pilot of a “super” hero show called Three Inches. Remember when people poked fun at series 1 of Heroes? People with un-super powers? Well. That’s Three Inches. The pilot focuses on Walter, a daydreamer who gets hit by […]
Joost owners Adconion promote Hunt to MD and drop anime from roster
The two moves are unlikely to be related but Adconion Media the network darling that bought struggling video on demand site Joost have been busy with changes. The former Head of Video from Adconion’s Australian operations Matthew Hunt has been promoted to Managing Director. He’ll replace Mike James who left last year. The video connection […]
Dawn of the Dreadfuls trailer – the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies prequel
Have you read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies yet? It started off something big. I’ve a copy of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter behind me. So, unless Final Fantasy XIII catches me, there might be a review of that on Geek Native soon. It turns out that we’re not dine with Pride and Prejudice and Zombies […]
