Things We Saw Today: Google Salutes Amelia Earhart

by Jill Pantozzi | 5:02 pm, July 24th, 2012


Google celebrates what would have been Amelia Earhart’s 115th birthday with their beautiful Google doodle.  

  • The Frisky shows us what a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle bra looks like. Hint: it might scare people off if you flashed it.
  • Susan Juhl, wife of the late Jerry Juhl and Jim Henson Company writer, remembers the late Sally Ride in a lovely piece.
  • I had completely forgotten Syfy was going to do a Booster Gold TV series so it was a nice surprise to read writer Andrew Kreisberg is turning in his script next month. (via MTV Splash Page)

You’ve seen the ultra-realistic Avengers Loki and Black Widow statues and perhaps you were saving up money for them. You might want to wait on that. They’re making one for Agent Coulson. This is our teaser shot. (via Topless Robot)

  • A plethora of Batman-related news. Firstly, Warner Bros. are planning to donate a substantial amount of money to the victims of the Aurora shooting. (via Digital Spy)
  • Like his director and fellow actors, Joseph Gordon-Levitt has released a statement about the tragedy. “”My most sincere sympathies go out to the families of the victims in Aurora,” he wrote on Twitter.
  • DC Comics have announced they’ll be delaying the release of Batman Incorporated #3 due to some imagery they feel is inappropriate considering the circumstances. (via MTV Geek)
  • Christopher Nolan wrote a goodbye to his Batman franchise the foreword to The Art and Making of The Dark Knight Trilogy. ” I will miss the Batman. I like to think that he’ll miss me, but he’s never been particularly sentimental,” he writes. ComingSoon has the full piece.

Once again, Leonard Nimoy proves how awesome he is.

    That Geekosystem article about the Portal 2 thing? It makes it clear they think it might indeed be the Space Core (voiced by geek-favourite Nolan North, by the way) rather than Wheatley.

    This makes a lot of sense.

    That’s not Wheatley, it’s the space core! Spaaaaaaaaaaaaace

    Nemoy comes cheap or he doesn’t come at all!

    You know, my mind kept remembering another site that said it was Wheatley while writing this up. Totally my bad.

    It’s alright, totally understandable considering how much Wheatley is loved by the fans.

    Space Core rules, though. Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacccccccccceeeeeeeeeeeee.

    Sixth Scale Loki from Sideshow Collectables is already preordered. He’ll look quite nice next to the Sixth Scale LImited Edition Boba Fett I got my husband.

    I could see Nimoy, after someone’s performance, raising an eyebrow and saying: “Fascinating.”
