Watchmen International Trailer

Thursday, December 11th, 2008

I’m getting really hyped-up about the forthcoming Watchmen movie – maybe because I’m nearly done reading the graphic novel at the moment and I’m loving it… but then again everything I’ve seen from Zack Snyder‘s cinematic adaptation looks amazing.

Here’s the latest offering from the Watchmen movie – the International Trailer… the movie is due to hit the big screen in March 2009.

Woah… Watchmen Trailer

Monday, July 21st, 2008

Ok… Zack Snyder is quickly becoming one of my favorite directors… not content with a fucking awesome reboot of one of the best zombie movies ever made, as well as bringing 300 to the big screen with such visionary style… the director is bringing Watchmen to cinemas next year, and the trailer looks amazing:

Oh and for reference, the dude at the end of the trailer isn’t me! lol

The Real Iron Man Suit!

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Iron Man hits our shores in just under a month’s time… and while the masses gear up for it, there is currently a real life version already developing in Utah… its called the XOS Exoskeleton.

My mate Dave advised me about this from Popular Science… and holy crap it looks awesome!

Here’s a segment of the article on Popular Science:

He could easily knock a nearby coder to the floor, or fling one over a desk—but even more impressive, he could do it all day. To show off his superhuman endurance, he walks over to a weight rack and yanks down a bar loaded with 200 pounds. Then he does it again. And again. He stops somewhere around 50, but he’s been known to rip through 500 reps in a row. Even then, he quits out of boredom, not fatigue.

Click on the jump to see the video of the suit in action.

Ninty! Give this man a job!

Monday, March 31st, 2008

This is an amazing presentation of a head tracking display for VR desktops using the Nintendo Wii remote… why this dude hasn’t been employed by Ninty is beyond me!

Thanks to Gethin for mentioning this to me – god knows why I hadn’t seen it before.
