One of the things we see in so much Steampunk, is the desire to travel and explore. These gentlemen adventurers discovered lost tribes, hidden ancient islands (with dinosaurs), went to the bottom of the sea – and all the way to the moon and beyond! But in this day and age, our exploration [...]

To post, or not to post – that was my question. Is a raygun Steampunk? Dr. Grordborts Infallible Aether Oscillators certainly talk the talk – they mention Aether, they talk of taking out charging elephants (well, dissolving 7/9ths of them per elephant) and there’s a testimonial from the no doubt formidable Major Alfred [...]

By the same people who made (and sharing several actors with) Batman Begins, this film (of the book) is set at turn of the century, about the rivalry of two brilliant stage magicians, Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale). But, of course, it all goes horribly wrong.
