What if one of our friendly Xenomorphs landed in Bambi’s forest and the resulting next generation of alien had that Bambi alien look. What if all that happened in gilt bronze and in limited numbers? The result might be much like this actual Bambu Alien made by Giger and currently up for auction at Waddingtons.
Alien – The Illustrated Story review
Frank Miller said of this book; “Alien – The Illustrated Story might just be the only successful movie adaptation ever done in comics. It’s an amazing graphic novel.” You may disagree with Miller but the comment shows just how good this graphic novel is. Alien – The Illustrated Story is an old one; the original […]
The movie timeline of the future [infographic]
This infographic from Michael Hobson is pretty cool. He’s a designer and illustrator based in London and one of the founders of Digital Sizzle. I’m not entirely sure he’s a fan of Ghost in the Shell. Then again; Cowboy Bebop is on the list so perhaps he’s an anime fan after all. The future according […]
The alien guitar
Gearing up for Prometheus? This alien guitar might capture your attention. Gig Goldstein spent days carving this H.R.

What if E.T. was an alien?
Sometimes cycle around and around on the internet. There’s been a few of these evergreen images on Geek Native before; Sir Ian McKellen’s (faked) Gandalf/Magneto tee or Optimist Prime versus Negatron for an example. Here’s another; E.T. as an… alien. That alien. There are plenty of variants of this image. A busier one; In fact, […]
Ride the Xenomorph
Built from scrap in a Bangkok garage by Roongrojna Sangwongprisarn, the alien motorcycle, actually goes. Sangwongprisarn has four shops, called Ko Art Shop, from which he sells his fantatic creation.

This is the sound at the end of the Prometheus trailer
The web is abuzz for the trailer of Ridley Scott’s Prometheus. The film started life as a prequel to Alien. That notion was then dismissed and denied by 20th Century Fox. Then it became a film in the same universe as Alien – sharing “strands of Alien’s DNA”. Certainly, when you watch the Prometheus trailer […]
Aliens on Ice
I think this proves there is life in the franchise yet. I’m talking about Alien and Aliens but not Prometheus. If you’re not tracking then Prometheus is the “yes it is” and “no it is not” Alien prequel. This video, however, is clearly Aliens. It’s Aliens on Ice.
