All those battles and no serious injuries? Come on. All those arcane powers and no side effects? Come on! If you ask me it comes as no surprise to discover that the cast of the Streetfighter have become zombies! Credit goes to Manuel Augusto Dischinger Moura, one of the artistic talents of Brazil, for the […]
Think Jason Momoa could ever look like Conan?
I nearly titled this post “Do you think Stargate‘s Jason Momoa could ever look like Conan?” but I imagine he’s getting pretty fed up of the Stargate pre-fix. I wasn’t sure. I was sure he would be a good actor so I was content with the casting. This picture makes me thing Momoa could well […]
NASA’s breathtaking Aurora Autralis observed from space
On their Earth Observatory site NASA have published a spectacular picture. Viewed from Earth the Aurora Australis is fantastic. Can you imagine what it would look like from space? This picture was taken from the International Space Station and is simply spectacular! Clicky, clicky to enjoy a larger picture.
Leaked pictures of The Shire from the Hobbit set
The German site Herr-Der-Ringe (is there a joke in the name) has managed to get hold of some photographs from the in-production The Hobbit movie. Quite clearly they show the production and construction of Bilbo Baggin’s The Shire. I know its early days yet and everything could change but I think these look spot on. […]
More pictures from the Left 4 Dead fan movie
We’re getting to see some impressive fan made movies. There’s Project London and The Lord of the Rings Born of Hope movie for example, there’s also a fan made movie for Call of Duty and Left 4 Dead. The Left 4 Dead team are doing a good job at making sure there’s a steady trickle […]
Photo-real (and rather cute) goblins
Inspired by the “There was a goblin” (spoiler alert) quote from Doctor Who I went looking for some pictures of cheeky gobbos online. It didn’t take long to find Bill Fleming (aka ~KomodoEmpire) at DeviantArt and his rather excellent photo manipulation gallery of Goblins. Very cute. Go buy the prints, people. :)
Your cat knows why you need a dragon in the garden
I can’t say where this rather good picture originally came from. I found it on a LiveJournal picture community (now closed) where it was without credit. Shame. The photographer deserves recognition because its such a good picture. I like to think most gardens would be improved with the addition of a dragon or two. This […]
King Kong footprints found on Santa Monica beach
Okay, okay, I’m writing about a PR stunt for the King Kong 3D Ride by Univeral Studios. The ride is due to open on the 4th of July and was designed by Peter Jackson. Do you think the crushed car works as well as the footprints? I’m not sure. (Via Jonathan Alcorn.)
Cloud Strife meets cosplay meets papercraft
Just in case there was any doubt that geeks can make 1 + 1 = 3 I give you this papercraft inspired Final Fantasy VII / Cloud Strife cosplay! Can you imagine the creative godmind it takes to come up with such an idea in the first place? We thank you!
20 Pac-man ghosts you might be able to identify
This is a great collection of Pac-man ghosts. I especially like R2D2, Avatar and Sesame Street. I like the rainbow ghost too – whatever it is! Cool points to whoever can name all 20! Now, this comes to me via a blog called Blame It On The Voices – but AVG warns me of an […]
