8. May 2011

1 Comment

Over at the website of Electric Sheep, Dan Lester posts up his comic review of Besson’s Adele Blanc-Sec movie. Adapted from Tardi’s brilliant original, I’ve heard good and bad things about it so far. And as yet, haven’t been able to get along to a screening. However, at some point I will, I’ve promised myself. [...]

From Smart’s blog: “I’ve drawn nearly twenty spreads so far, but with loads still left to do (I’m on this for the next year or so). I’ve taken on Weeping Angels, Sontarans, Judoon, drawn the [...]

(The Millennium Falcon, the fastest ship to ever make the Kessel Run, here illustrated by the one and only Cam Kennedy for Star Wars: Dark Empire) Yes, it is May the 4th and that means Sith and Jedi and even non-believers who’d rather have a good blaster at their side than rely on a hokey [...]

I know Richard had a special Doctor Who themed Art for Art’s Sake yesterday ahead of the (brilliant!) return of the show to our screens last night, but I was sent this link by Cultural Gutter after Doctor Who aired, followed by the brief but moving tribute to the late Elisabeth Sladen, My Sarah Jane [...]

“A tear, Sarah Jane?”

“A tear, Sarah Jane? No, don’t cry. While there’s life, there’s…” The last words the late, great Jon Pertwee’s third Doctor spoke to Elisabeth Sladen’s Sarah Jane Smith before regenerating. I think a lot of Doctor Who fans of a certain age will recall that scene and understand the sad relevance of it tonight: it’s [...]

Rise of Planet of the Apes trailer

15. April 2011

Comments Off

A short trailer for the Rise of the Planet of the Apes movie has appeared online; doesn’t show a huge amount, but certainly does look more promising than the frankly awful Tim Burton ‘re-imgagining’ of the original Planet of the Apes a few years back:

Green Lantern Wondercon Trailer….

You know, I really can’t decide on this. The first minute or so looks like a video game advert (you know the bits where they stick the phrase “not actual game footage” on screen?), and that stupid little mask is just plain ridiculous, but towards the end there’s a little feeling that this might just [...]

“It’s the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs.”

7. April 2011

It can only be the Millennium Falcon – maybe not as powerful as the USS Enterprise, as unusual looking as a White Star or as dimensionally amazing as a TARDIS, but for my money it is still one of the all-time coolest spacecraft designs in science fiction. Unrealitymag has the blueprints, check them out (link [...]
