Geek Media Round-Up: October 2, 2008

1 Oct 2008  Media

Art

  • What I want to know is, if this is a “Steampunk Tree House“, where are the cannons?

Comics

  • Build your own Iron man reactor for Halloween.

Film

  • The next Transformers, Revenge of the Fallen will be be shot in IMAX format.

Internet

  • Print out your own Zombie in my Pocket solitaire card game at BoardGame Geek.
  • Would you pay a hundred dollars for a Storm Trooper hoodie? Yeah, me too. That’s why I’m going to be living with my parents until I’m forty.

Literature

  • 5 Great Science Books to Expand Your Mind.
  • Author Kim Stanley Robinson has been named a Hero of the Environment 2008… and if that leaves you confused, remember: they didn’t specify which planet’s environment.
  • Free Fiction: Listen to “Crystal Nights” by Greg Egan at Transmissions From Beyond.
  • Free Fiction: Read “Catch ‘Em in the Act” By Terry Bisson at Tor.
  • Free Fiction: Read the vintage story “Children of Tomorrow” by Arthur Leo Zagat at Manybooks.
  • I personally think that the Dune series should have been included in i09’s list of The Longest Science Fiction Books of All Time, because while the story may technically be series, you have to admit they all tend to run together into one blur.

Television

  • The Aquaman pilot was a flop, but someone thinks Robin should get his own series? Pppppppppppp!

Video Games

  • Den of Geek runs down a list of the 13 PC games they can’t wait to play in the next 12 months. Personally, a sequel to StarCraft could fill out all thirteen slots of my own list.
