by Kellie Foxx-Gonzalez | 5:00 pm, July 11th, 2012


Item 47 will star Lizzy Caplan and Jesse Bradford as a couple who recovers a lost alien weapon and slip into a life of crime. Excited yet? (via Entertainment Weekly.)

I don’t think babies can get much cuter, but put them in this adorable Star Wars bassinet and you might have me convinced. (via Offbeat Mama.)

  • Neil Gaiman has signed a multi-book deal with Harper Collins. He’ll be releasing children’s stories one of which will be a featuring a little panda named Chu that is known for having an outsized sneeze. Aww! (via Publisher’s Weekly.)

Here’s Black Widow kicking ass as usual. (via Frances of Francavilla.)

  • BlackGirlsCODE is focusing on giving young girls of color the chance to get excited about computer science. Yes please! (via Geek Feminism.)
  • Here’s a kickstarter for Geeks and Gamers Anonymous, a webseries about three women joining a gaming addiction support group. Get to the kickstarting!
  • You probably already knew that Daniel Tosh was a bad comedian, but did you know he’s also a sexist jerk? (via The Frisky.)

Here’s a Pacific Rim teaser of its two leads — if only the Warner Bros. panel at Comic-Con would happen faster! (via Bleeding Cool.)

    Not quite sure about that armour (although that’s pretty balanced), but I’m now definitely more interested in Pacific Rim.

    Agreed. It’s a little generic, but Biker-Hamlet’s armor actually looks slightly *more* fan-servicey than Depressed-Girl-From-”Babel’s” armor.

    (For the life of me, I can’t remember their names.)

    Who are those two children in armor? I thought Idris Elba was the star of Pacific Rim.

    It says “two of its leads” in the article above. It’s entirely possible that Idris Elba is the main lead whereas these two are sort-of secondary leads.

    It is a little generic, sure, but at the same time I think it’s quite pleasing to look at. I wouldn’t mind a suit for myself.

    Not just a sexist jerk, but a bully too by the sounds of it.  Had it been me, I would have spoken up too, and if pressed I’d have tried my damndest to get to the stage and punch his lights out.
