I Think I’ve Played This Doctor Who RPG, No Wait, I Just Lived Through It [VIDEO]

by Jill Pantozzi | 1:16 pm, April 4th, 2012

So far, the Matt Smith era of Doctor Who has been a huge hit, both in the U.K. and the U.S. but some long-time fans of the sci-fi series are of the mind that his have been some of the most confusing seasons ever. To show us why, College Humor have put together another one of their fantastic RPG-style videos (you may remember their Battlestar Galactica one). Check it out after the jump!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Here Are Some Green Women Who Probably Aren’t Irish.

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:30 pm, March 17th, 2012

Green is a very popular color for skin in fiction, didn’t you know? It seems that green is the default color when it comes to aliens but it seems to me there are just more green characters than blue, purple, red, etc. So to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, we’ve rounded up a few icon green women who may or may not be Irish. That’s ok, everyone’s Irish today!

The Jurassic Park Theme, Played on the Melodica

by Jamie Frevele | 1:16 pm, February 1st, 2012

The melodica, also known as a “blow organ” and “key flute,” is a harmonica-style instrument that features a tube through which to blow air and a keyboard to create distinct notes. It looks like this. Now, witness a glorious, sometimes aggressive version of the Jurassic Park theme song written by award-winning composer John Williams, played on the melodica. And then try not to laugh.

“They do move in herds …”

Tom Hanks Is Developing an Animated Sci-Fi Series to Be Streamed on Yahoo! — Yahoo? Yes, Yahoo!

by Jamie Frevele | 12:31 pm, January 9th, 2012

Two elements of this story are very interesting, indeed. The first part: Tom Hanks, under his production company Playtone, has created an animated science fiction series called Electric City. That’s fun enough all by itself, because if there’s anything we know about Tom Hanks, it’s that he creates great science fiction. We’re kidding. Actually, it’s the tiniest bit surprising, but in a good way! The other interesting part: it will make its debut exclusively on Yahoo!, the “internet portal,” marking the first venture of this kind. Which means Google is totally going to try to get George Clooney to do something with them, probably immediately.

Watch Simon Pegg Learn About Physics From Brian Cox [Video]

by Jamie Frevele | 1:17 pm, December 30th, 2011

Simon Pegg was on the BBC show A Night With the Stars recently, and while he was there, he was treated to a physics lesson by the British equivalent of Neil DeGrasse-Tyson, Brian Cox, and physicist Jim Al-Khalili about why atoms have so much empty space. Part of this experiment looked a lot like jump-rope, and it is as cute as it sounds.

Warner Bros. Is Making a “Live-Action Hybrid” LEGO Movie, Not Totally Sure What That Means

by Jamie Frevele | 10:59 am, November 14th, 2011

Warner Bros. announced that it has officially greenlit a LEGO movie, calling it a “CG-animated/live-action hybrid.” Um, we kind of don’t know exactly how to interpret that or how the famous Danish building toys come into play, but we’ll know for sure in 2014, because that’s when it’s coming to theaters. What we do know is that the LEGO set based on the LEGO movie will be the most meta tie-in that ever meta-ed.

White Luke Cage Is the Best Worst Idea (For a Comedy Sketch and Only a Comedy Sketch) Ever [Video]

by Jamie Frevele | 1:14 pm, September 9th, 2011

You know it’s crossed the minds of some people who have really bad ideas, but even for those of us who don’t see race, a white Luke Cage would be a bad idea. But a sketch about how bad of an idea? A good idea.

Julie Newmarr Purrrrrfers the Batman Series She Did With Adam West, Thankyouverymuch

by Jamie Frevele | 3:32 pm, September 6th, 2011

Julie Newmarr thinks that Batman these days is just too scowly and dark. The first woman to play Catwoman on TV (Lee Meriwether played her in the 1966 movie), Newmarr longs for the days when the Bat was a light-hearted, silly crimefighter played by Adam West who had fights festooned with comic book-style violence bubbles. And while she thinks Anne Hathaway will do a fine job in the role, she had a few choice words about some other latter-day Catwoman portrayers.

Now Disney Has a Live-Action Snow White Movie, But It’s Not as Snowy or White

by Jamie Frevele | 9:34 am, August 4th, 2011

Not to be outdone, Disney has been working on its own live-action movie based on Snow White, but rather than be like those other two movies — Universal‘s Snow White and the Huntsman and the still-untitled movie from Relativity Media — this one isn’t going to be your typical Snow White story. In fact, her name won’t be “Snow White,” the seven dwarves won’t be dwarves, and a lot of it takes place in China. And also, it’s not going to be about Snow White all that much. But it’s still totally going to be known as “Disney’s live-action Snow White movie.” And it already has a director!

Wearing a Cast of Your Pet’s Nose Around Your Neck: Sweet or Mild Torture??

by Jamie Frevele | 2:28 pm, July 3rd, 2011

We love weird jewelry. We also love pets. And looking at these custom pieces by Jackie Kaufman of Rock My World, Inc., we’re just wondering if wearing a sterling silver cast of the nose of one’s dog or cat is the ultimate sign of affection and tribute, or if it’s just super weird. Since one of my favorite jewelry pieces is a hippo with a fishtail and a woman’s torso inside its mouth, I’m going to err on the side of “kinda adorable.” Because, come on: noses! … Except for that whole “is this animal cruelty” thing.
