The Week in Geek Issue # 134
Greetings dear readers! Lunchtimes at the writer’s job have been a lot more fun of late, as he’s got his department at work hooked on playing Apples to Apples. He’s hoping to introduce them to the white knuckle terror of a game that is Pandemic soon, but that will have to wait till we finish the Doctor Who jigsaw puzzle we’re working...
The Week in Geek Issue # 133
Greetings dear readers! The writer hasn’t done much this week outside of writing his Eyecon module, which means he’s been watching swashbuckling movies, reading swashbucklers and occasionally talking in an atrocious French accent. It’s pretty much business as usual for him, to the occasional dismay of his wife. Zombies have been in the news a lot this week, with the Canadian parliament...
The Week in Geek Issue # 132
Welcome dear readers! It’s been a quiet week - the writer has submitted his game for Eyecon 2013, which is the only thing he’s done of note this week outside of scouring YouTube for power metal versions of ‘Over the Misty Mountains Cold.’ Excitement Central, that's my life. This week saw the Superbowl, which for those of you who’ve not heard of it, is an event that somehow manages to squeeze in an American football game between the advertising and the halftime...

The Week in Geek Issue # 131
Welcome dear readers! In a shocking break with Australian tradition, the writer didn’t spend his Australia Day long weekend passed out in an alcoholic haze, but in accordance with his traditions, it was spent gaming. As far as he’s concerned, it was a far more interesting way to spend his time, but he’s odd that way. It’s official: Disney have confirmed that JJ Abrams is directing the next Star Wars movie. Not sure how I feel about that – he’s far from...
Interview: Hansel & Gretel 3D Director Tommy Wirkola and Producer Kevin Messick
When it comes to clever horror, Tommy Wirkola, Director of the extremely cool zombie-Nazi movie Dead Snow, knows how to put it all together. The Swedish-born, Australian-taught filmmaker was in Sydney to promote his latest movie, Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters. Joining him was Producer Kevin Messick – another Aussie ex-pat. The pair are fronting one of the most outrageously brutal and hilarious horror-adventure films of recent years - a reimaginging of the classic Hansel...

The Week in Geek Issue # 130
Welcome dear readers, We'd like to apologise fo our absence last week - the extreme heat forced the writer to retreat to his dank, dim cave, aka his house. For a dank cave, it's nowhere near as awesome as the Batcave, but all my stuff is there. Moving on... For your amusement and edification, we present a selection of songs that the writer is banned from listening to while driving. It’s a long list and includes the following: Judas Priest – Breaking the Law Metallica...
