August is almost here and that means one thing. No, not Jose Aldo fighting again. No, not four solid UFC events with stacked cards. It means Breaking Bad. That’s right, we are only a few short weeks away from witnessing the finale to one of the greatest stories that has ever been told on Sunday
Man, what can I say about Sharknado that hasn’t already been said about the Thomas Jayne version of The Punisher? It had a lot of hype, there was some internet buzz going strong behind it, but as far as ratings go it was a total dud, but that doesn’t keep it from being a guilty
The irony of the virality of this video is not lost upon me, as it emanates from my home state of Rhode Island, which I have not visited in a number of years now thanks to the cost of plane tickets and how I don’t want to pay money to stay in a RI hotel
In comparison, here is the old-school Electro that you may be familiar with. Gone is the silly green costume and equally bizarre yellow spikes coming from his head. Now we have this new Electro played by Jamie Foxx in the upcoming The Amazing Spider-Man 2 that looks surprisingly like Dr. Manhattan from The Watchmen. Nevertheless,
Back maybe eight years ago or so, I bonded with a girl over strange things that we both liked, but what really sealed the deal (seal deal!?) was driving this girl from Connecticut to Rhode Island to my palatial estate (read: parent’s house) and discussing how great the scene from The Good Son where Macaulay
I’ve never had to experience a tornado, but I came close once. I was moving across the country with my family as a teen and we ended up driving through Kansas in the middle of a terrible storm. Our truck swayed back and forth and eventually we were forced to pull over to wait it
President Barack Obama wears many hats. Leader of the free world and commander and chief are the big one’s that come to mind. While those are important, he also sports a head accessory of the nerd/geek variety occasionally, and fear not my fellow Americans—he does put it on every now and then. According to USA
Spiders are one of the most terrifying creatures on the planet. They suck the blood of their prey for sustenance after wrapping them up in what basically amounts to an extravagant silk blanket. They are both deadly and elegant. Classy yet terrifying. These 3-D printed T-8 Octopod Robots sound like something from the Terminator movies
This man is the most altruistic motorcycle driver known to humankind. Not many people would risk death or at least a nasty road rash purely to give someone their porcelain mug from the back of their bumper as they speed down a not very busy street. But this man will risk life and limb for
We don’t know why this guy is easily frightened, but we do know that it’s a pretty horrible idea to make this guy jump while he’s holding a knife or is precisely trying to cut something with a slicing apparatus. Maybe the guy holding this camera should have waited for this line chef to not
When the film adaptation of Alan Moore’s Watchmen was released I was probably the most excited dude on planet earth. For many years it was said to be impossible to translate into the medium of film, but it seemed like Zack Snyder had somehow solved the puzzle. The trailers showed everything you’d want to see
Sometimes a director makes a movie so good that people just want to see him make that movie again. Oftentimes, they either try and fail or go on to make something completely different. Nicolas Winding Refn and Ryan Gosling blew away movie-goers with Drive in 2011 and it looks like they’re aiming to try to
3D was the big thing a few years ago. Hell, it can still be a big thing, but every time I walk into an electronics store, I see a lonely set of foggy 3D glasses near an expensive TV no one is going to buy. So is 3D dead? I talk to a lot of
I call the sleepy suburb of Naperville, Illinois my home town. It’s one of those towns where nothing really happens outside of a stray soccer mom going crazy and killing her kids every 10-15 years or so (seriously). But in the few months since I’ve left good ‘ol Naperville for Los Angeles, things have turned
Actually, I’m lying, the greatest 4th of July video is the original Bootleg Fireworks video, that will never be topped. But this ‘Bullet Time’ fireworks video made by Jeremiah Warren is a damn close second. Damn close. Watch the slow motion goodness and become entranced by the 3D explosions. This is such a perfect idea
I grew up with science fiction, it somehow became really important to me as a kid and helped me to really think outside of the box and wonder what the universe was like. That means reading a lot of Star Wars alternate universe, Isaac Asimov and others as a kid, while still watching tons of
