When we say that we’re a geek blog for geeks and want to take the word geek back, we aren’t kidding. That’s why it’s our duty to warn you about THE FAKE GEEK GIRL!
Okay, this is just a fake movie trailer for done in the style of a drive-in B-horror-movie but who doesn’t love the campish awesomeness of vintage B-movies.
If there’s one thing that I look forward to in every Marvel Comics movie, it’s the Stan Lee cameo. I know that’s a weird thing to look forward too but it’s usually a laugh-worthy moment. Thanks to this video, you don’t have to sit through a whole movie for a couple of seconds of Stan. You can get them in one handy dose.
In their ongoing video series highlighting cosplayers, games developer Red 5 Studios examines how cosplayer Crystal Graziano built her Commander Shepard outfit. The video goes through which materials Crystal selected and some of the design and construction process that went into making her FemShep.
The geniuses at Waterloo Labs have outdone themselves this time. Using modified go-karts, RFID chips and on-board and trackside computers, they’ve done an amazing and faithful recreation of Mario Kart in real life. This isn’t the same thing that French comedian Remi Gaillard did with Mario Kart. This is bananas spinning you into walls and knocking people out of the way with stars Mario Kart.
I’ve never head of robot band Compressorhead but having listened to them cover some Motorhead, I’d say they’re better than 90% of the so-called “artists” making music right now. This three man robot band consisting of a guitarist with 78 finger, a bass player and a drummer with four arms laid down a damn good cover of Ace of Spades.
As an added bonus, Compressorhead’s fans are called meatbags. If you don’t get it, play KOTOR.
Britain’s legendary wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey TV series meets the classic American time travel movie in this amazing animated mashup. The Doctor is Doc Brown, Rory is Marty and Amy is Jennifer in this cross between Doctor Who and Back to the Future. And, yes, there is a DeLorean TARDIS.
The Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series launched in 2008 with the animated movie that was generally panned by critics. That wasn’t a harbinger for things to come for the TV series itself. Star Wars: The Clone Wars is in its 5th season on the Cartoon Network in America and is expected to keep going strong. There’s a slight irony to the length of the series as Star Wars canon holds that the Clone War lasted only three years.
Anyway, to mark the milestone, Lucasfilm Animation put together a look back at the first 100 episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. (Spoiler alert, naturally.)
What would it look like if Crash Bandicoot platformed his way through real life. YouTube user Mat’s Films answered that question with this video that’s a great piece of nostalgia for Crash fans from the glory days under developers Naughty Dog. I wonder whatever happened to those guys.
The gag reel produced for the Second Season Blu-Ray collection includes a number of highlights including laughs with Lt. Worf, intimate moments with Commander Riker (and his beard), Data having some un-android moments and Captain Picard having trouble with doors. Who doesn’t love a good blooper reel?
