Warner Bros. has created a new website to promote Batman: Gotham Knight, the direct-to-DVD (and Blu-ray) anime. According to the website, the DVD will feature “six standalone chapters, each with stylish art from some of Japan’s greatest anime visionaries, weaved together into a larger story that follows Batman through his transition from beginner to The Dark Knight.” The website includes an amazing trailer, production videos, a gallery of photos, wallpapers and more. Batman: Gotham Knight will hit stores on July 8 and The Dark Knight will hit theaters on July 18. I can’t wait!

If only Physics class had been more like this…

April 14th, 2008, 2:17 am by Chris "KeL" Adams

Crayon-Intro

In my never ending quest to find cool ways to waste time on the internet, I came across Crayon Physics.  Like all of the best games, the object is simple: move the red ball to the star on the screen.  This is accomplished by drawing squares to create a path and using physics to make it travel that path.  The look of the game is pitch-perfect and really evokes the feel of those bygone days spent scribbling with crayons.  Just like with real crayons, it’s as much fun to mess around drawing different things as it is to actually follow the rules.  It’s a quick and free download, so give it a try and see if it doesn’t make you feel like a kid again.

Scottsdale believes in Harvey Dent! Security guards, not so much.

March 16th, 2008, 4:45 am by Chris "KeL" Adams

As previously reported in Nerdvana, Scottsdale was the site of Harvey Dent campaign rallies on Saturday.  The first rally of the day was to take place at Indian School and Scottsdale Roads. A late start by the Dent’s campaign staff was compounded by a security guard who refused to let the van set up in the bank parking lot he was patrolling.

Anti-Dent

Is there no limit to the depths of which Gotham’s political machine will stoop to prevent an honest man from getting his campaign off the ground? Read the rest of this entry »
