Geek Media Round-Up: March 17, 2009

17 Mar 2009  Media

Art

    Halo Covenant Vampire
  • Game of the Art has posted a gallery of Stunning Concept Artwork from Halo Wars definitely worth a gawk.
  • Naldz Graphics has posted a gallery of 40+ Beautiful Robot Characters Illustration.

Film

  • The folks over at TrekMovie have put together a video of Star Trek title logos, starting with the original 1960s television series and continuing through all of the eleven movies, including the upcoming JJ Abrams prequel.
  • Nattyb over at UnReality Magazine counts off 10 Little Kids in Movies That Really Piss Me Off, starting with that destroyer of franchises, Annie Skywalker. The article is a follow-up to 10 Little Kids From Movies That Rule.

Internet

  • If you haven’t noticed yet, Google Books has released a century’s worth of Popular Mechanics back issues. Apart from their retro-chic entertain value, they’re a great do-it-yourself resource, explaining any number of home repairs.

Literature

  • Are We Headed Toward a Post-Literate World in which reading and writing are no longer necessary?

Television

  • After 16 years, Sci Fi Channel is changing its name … unless you say it aloud. The NBC Universal-owned Sci Fi cable network will become SyFy starting in June.
  • Is the media clouding the issue of Global Warming. [YouTube] Stephen Schneider of Stanford University thinks so.
  • Lost will have a two-hour season finale, which is great news. Of course, what I’d really like to see is a two hour interview in which the writers explain, point-by-point, what the hell this series was about. Somehow, I don’t think that’s going to happen, though. I just know that the ending is going to leave us more confused than the end of Donnie Darko.
  • Neil Gaiman was on the Colbert Report last night. You can catch a recap on the Colbertnation website.

Video Games

  • GameRadar picks the Top 7 Games you either Love or Hate, starting with Assassin’s Creed.
