Apologies about posting a little late this week but I’ve only just managed to compose myself after the worst weekend of TV for a long time. Ok so I’ll kick things off with Strictly on Saturday night… Unbelievably, Ally Bastian was given the boot sending Chris and Ricky through to the final. This was after Ally [...]

We’re now a month in since the release of Modern Warfare 2 and after racking up nearly a full days worth of play time I think I’m ready to post a few thoughts about it. Infinity Ward have done something that Epic and Bungie (the first time round) failed to do, and that’s deliver a sequel [...]

How cool is this! I found it over at thinkgeek.com, it’s a sleeping bag based on the Tantum from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back I’d be well chuffed if this found it’s way underneath my tree this year. Full link here: http://www.thinkgeek.com/homeoffice/gear/bb2e/zoom/

Fangoria has reported that the sequel to the Zombie-tastic Spanish horror flick [Rec] is due to be screened at New York’s Spanish Cinema Now festival at the end of December. This is great news for Zombie fans because it surely means that there won’t be too long before it gets a full international release. The [...]

I picked up a copy of Beatles: Rock Band a couple of weeks ago and in between heavy bouts of Modern Warfare 2 I’ve just finished it and thought I’d post my thoughts on the game. So what’s good? The game looks and sounds great. Like really great. The trippy sequences as you get further in [...]

If you don’t fancy lining Simon Cowell’s pockets even more this Christmas and can’t stand the way that the X-Factor bags the Xmas single every year without being in the slightest bit festive, make a statement and purchase Rage Against the Machine’s single ‘Killing in the Name’ next week. The single will be available to download [...]

The next time you’re in work or at home bored surfing through YouTube and fancy an alternative to watching teenagers lip-sync their favourite song or skateboarders failing jumps, check out the Sixty Symbols channel: It’s run by the University of Nottingham and is a series of short videos given by scientists on a range of [...]

I watched the second episode of the fantastic Gavin & Stacey last night and if you haven’t yet caught up on what’s been going on in Barry and Billericay, be sure to jump on before this final series finishes airing. James Corden and Ruth Jones have proved that the tricky third series can indeed be every [...]

Has Jeph Loeb Ruined Hulk? (Spoilers Ahead)

The Short answer is – YES! I’ve just finished reading the third volume (Hulk no more) in Jeph Loeb’s run on the Hulk re-boot and I’m really not impressed. The first edition of Hulk began with the murder of Abomination seemingly at the hands of Hulk, but Bruce Banner was locked up in a secure Shield [...]
