Welcome to Geek Bits, where we share best bits of the Internet with you. Was the destruction of the Death Star an inside job? How do you make a recyclable Iron Man suit? What do you need to hack your cooking technique?

Was the destruction of the Death Star and inside job? See the proof for yourself…

DOCTOR WHO
Peter Jackson said he’d direct an episode of Doctor Who if they give him a Dalek. That’s pretty cheap, because I’m assuming he’s rich enough to buy one from the BBC for ₤3495 (plus delivery) (via Mary Sue)

If Iron Man were made of cardboard then he'd be Cardboard Man…doesn't have the same ring to it. A He-Man sword would be pretty cool, but where's he gonna find a green-and-yellow tiger to ride around on?
A to Z starts in nine days! Most of my posts are written and I'll knock out the rest this weekend.
This geek's guide to cooking – just say no.
Holy crap is Luke's Change brilliant.
Isn't it! He makes so much sense I even believe it.
I'm starting on mine too Alex. It's gonna be an amazingly good time!
Yeah, I don't think the "Invincible cardboard man" has the same ring Pat. If he even rode on a stuffed tiger it would geek me out.
If Star Wars is ever made again, this is exactly the way it should be told.
