Things We Saw Today: Burlesque Princess Leia

A gorgeously done Burlesque Princess Leia from DeviantArt user jazreet911. (via TheBirdandtheBat) 

  • Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith’s daughter Willow recently cut off all her hair. Her dad was totally behind it saying, “She has got to have command of her body.” Read the rest of his wise words at The Frisky.
  • Get this. David Simon, the creator of The Wire, has gone on record saying Buffy the Vampire Slayer was the best show in years. And yes, he was counting his own. (via Kotaku)

Wall-E director Andrew Stanton shares some Pixar family photos featuring the lovable robot M-O. Here he is on a fake picnic with ants in neckerchiefs. Visit Hero Complex for more.

  • Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe told a reporter he would totally play The Flash in a movie. Mostly because there’s not many superheroes left in his opinion. We laugh in his general direction. Plus, I could see him playing someone like Tim Drake instead. (via MTV)
  • Comic related, the hate group (yes, I called them a hate group) One Million Moms are at it again. This time protesting, you guessed it, DC and Marvel’s recent moves with homosexual characters. Don’t read their letter unless you want to go all Hulk.

I’m not one for wall climbing but if you are, this will be a special treat. Now for purchase from Hangfast Adventure Structures are these climbing hold thingies! There’s one made to look like the Millennium Falcon too! (via Gizmodo)

  • Geek Mom gives us 42 occurrences of the number 42 in pop culture.

And in case you were wondering why everyone was talking about towels today…

    Ah… I think I discovered the secret identity of the Bird and the Bat. Sneak TMS…. very, very sneaky…

    I’m confused, wouldn’t it just be easier and save everyone’s time if One Million Moms listed the one or two things they don’t oppose?

    Great news! One Million Moms has a link on their page that lets you send an email to “key executives” at DC and Marvel. I used it to send an email about my support of their recent decisions and urging them to do more. Thanks to One Million Moms for sending out that email for me.

    I start to think that OMM is actually a kind of viral marketing strategy for whatever company needs a boost in sales cause seriously, none of their boycotts ever worked and the internet is buzzing with “OMG we all need to go to company X and show our support!”. Genius! ;D

    “One Million Moms” has shy of 1500 followers on Twitter.

    Just sayin’.

    Today is also the People’s Revolution of the Glorious Twenty-Fifth of May. Wear lilac if you were there.

    Thanks for letting me know about this. I used the form to sent a letter of support too! Mwahaha!

    Daniel as Tim? Oh my god, my brain just imploded.

    Also, I’m thinkin’ about finding a yaoi doujin collection and sending it to One Million Moms. Any ideas?

  • Frodo Baggins

    Surely yuri would be more apropos?
