Alice in Wonderland
Mar 10th
Alright, so I got a bit lazy when it came to writing this review. I went to check the movie out for opening night. Yes, at 12:01 on a Thursday. It’s now Wednesday, and I honestly don’t really feel like writing it. How do you write a review about a mediocre movie that was as mediocre as you thought it was going to be? I guess we’re about to find out. Hit the jump for the entire review. Some spoilers ahead. More >
Tron Legacy
Mar 10th
Finally a movie I can be excited for. Even though it’s just a sequel to a great classic movie I grew up on, I don’t mind it so much because it looks freaking amazing. Jeff Bridges reprises his role as as Kevin Flynn in this one, albeit it doesn’t look like he’s the main character this time around. Apparently he’s got a son, who decides to follow in his daddy’s footsteps. I saw the second trailer when I went to the opening of Alice and I was blown away. The bikes look awesome, the races look awesome, pretty much everything looks bad ass. And as much as I was an opponent to 3D, it’s actually starting to interest me. Especially with this flick. Click the jump for the second trailer. More >
World of Papercraft
Mar 8th
These World of Warcraft papercraft sculptures just crit my visual cortex for wtfpwn. It takes some serious skill, or at least some serious basement dwelling to come up with such detailed paper art sculptures. All I can say is WTB, but then again if I ever showed something like this to anyone I’d probably never hear the end of it. Check out more here, or just head on over to the creator’s blog to check out the whole lot. Hit the jump for a few more examples. [via Walyou]

Avatar Daggers
Mar 8th
Grab your loincloths and tighten your braids. For those of you that cant get enough of Avatar and the Na’vi, you can finally have your own set of Na’vi replica daggers. Now you can placate your desperate need for all things Avatar with some pretty sweet gear. Just try not to use them on yourself once you remember that Pandora isnt real. Hit the jump for couple more shots. More >
Bacon Rocket
Mar 8th
What do you get when you cross bacon with a rocket? A bacon rocket of course. Some resourceful chaps from the UK (I’m assuming) decided to find out how well a rocket made out of bacon would fly. Not very well, it turns out. Maybe ham? Someone jump on it. Honestly, I don’t get the whole craze about bacon. Maybe because I was never raised on the stuff. I do know a few people who would kill over bacon. Something for everyone, I suppose. The song was fun though. “Bacon and rocketry, in perfect harmony!” [via Geekologie]
Germaphobe
Mar 7th
Here’s another video from the Fully Sick Rapper. I really love this guy’s stuff. His videos and lyrics are kind of weird, and the beats are sick. Here’s to the guy getting better, but hopefully even if he does he’ll continue making videos.
Mega Shark vs Airplane
Mar 5th
Somewhere, someone thought it would be a great idea to make a film which involves a giant, and what i can only assume is magic, shark. Oh, and a giant octopus too. Can’t forget that. It stars Lorenzo Lamas of Renegade “fame”, and although I haven’t seen it and probably never will, I can assume it’s probably a horrible, horrible movie. Now, I don’t mind watching movies that are cheesy and over the top, but from the following clip, this thing looks neigh unwatchable. I don’t even think the MST3K guys can make me want to watch something as stupid as this. Check out the clip of the magic shark eating an airplane after the jump. [via Boing Boing] More >
Cute Overload
Mar 4th
What do you get when you combine a cute little Asian girl with an insanely awesome Voltron costume? This pic. I kind of wish I had more info about this, because the costume is pretty kick ass. I just wonder where her helmet is, or if they even made one. [via Geekologie]
Vampire Fight
Mar 4th
I’m sure if both of these guys were real, this is exactly how it would go down. Dave Chappelle said it best.
And then they had to nerve to put a pimp on there. They didn’t go out and say it, but I knew he was a pimp. They called him the count. You could just see him pimping. “Bitch where is my money? You’ve been late FOUR times. I’ve been counting. How many times must I smack you before you learn? One *psh* Two *psh*. Two smacks. Ah ha ha ha haaaaaa.”
