JUGGALO RYDA SONG NUMBER 6
04/04/12, 00:42
I love that his own comment announcing his latest songs (which he describes as "better") got voted into oblivion. Whoop whoop, indeed.
Also, is his nose trying to run away from his mouth, or are his upper teeth unusually tall? |

What Adult Swim did on April Fool's Day this year
04/04/12, 00:38
Xeno, implying that I am even mildly enthused that Seth MacFarlane's animated abortions get airtime is an insult akin to being challenged to a duel. He's a one-gag comedian that's been riding the same formula for years and for some reason he's allowed to get away with it.
The Toonami gag manages to be just about as un-funny, but without the queasy feeling that one needs a shower after seeing "Family Guy" or its many clones. |

After having done altogether too much research on this, as I understand it, bringing back this Toonami robot-guy-thing was the joke. I vaguely remember them getting rid of him as a mascot (maybe the whole Toonami block?), so I guess having him re-appear was somehow supposed to be funny.
So... ha-ha, I guess. I'm sure the Cartoon Network switchboard was afire with confused and panicked viewers. |

So the Total Recal remake trailer is out.
04/03/12, 22:08
If it's not green, it's teal and orange.
And EVERYTHING is CGI now, even movies/TV that don't really need it since the real world is what they're trying to show in the background. Some of them can't even get it right, like "The Walking Dead." I enjoy that show, but it has characters standing in front of some of the fakiest skylines and horizons I've seen this side of a painted canvas backdrop in a stiff breeze. |

"The original?" Have you read the Philip K. Dick story? It shares a title, a place where you can get implanted memories, and kinda-sorta the concept of an undercover agent who worked on Mars who may or may not have had his memories erased. From there, they've got about as much in common as Star Wars and Apollo 13. |

I would love to see some of Dick's post-apocalyptic work adapted, but by and large, his better stories are basically sci-fi LSD trips. They still plan on adapting Ubik to film at some point, I think.
"Imposter" with Tony Shalhoub wasn't bad, overall. Not a big-budget blockbuster, but not awful. |

Michael Ironside can't fix everything. See:
Highlander 2.
Heavy Metal 2000.
Starship Troopers (yes, one could enjoy this film, but it's was pretty fucking stupid). |

From what I gather, the answer is: Yes.
They're planning on incorporating some tropes from the Ah-nold movie (the tri-titted prostitute, for example), but whether or not it's more like the PKD story depends on how they handle what's "real" and what's from Rekall.
If it's more of a mind-screw, it's closer to Dick's story, I guess. Given how short it was, it's kind of hard to even stretch the original to a feature-length film, let alone one that involves a ton of action. |

So it's a happier-looking version of a "Tool" video? |

The original was more like "The Lathe of Heaven" than a sci-fi adventure. Anything they put into Quaid's head became reality, and each time it threatened the Earth.
The "original movie" is nothing like the story. |

Kinect Star Wars - 'I'm Han Solo'
04/02/12, 22:49
Jeeze. Lucasfilm is doing to Robot Chicken what the GOP is doing to the Daily Show; it's getting so that you really can't really tell what's parody and what's official. |

Kinect Star Wars - 'I'm Han Solo'

George Lucas, our generation's tribute to Howard Hughes.
I can't wait for whatever wacky projects he's going going on in his basement to come to light after he dies. |

Future Force - Robot Arm
04/02/12, 11:40
It's just like modern video games, actually. It's a fine representation of:
Press X to not die.
Press X to not die.
Press X to not die.
Press X to not die.
Press X to not die.
Press X to not die.
Press X to not die.
Press X to not die.
END CUTSCENE. END GAME. BEGIN HOLLOW FEELING THAT YOU BELIEVE CAN BE FILLED WITH MORE MODERN WARFARE OR TF2. |

To be fair, after "Twilight," who doesn't want to see Robert Pattinson blow his own hand (or other body parts) off?
Watching brawls won't get you a visit from the 4chan party van.
More videos of police brutality will hopefully lead to less tolerance of it from the public.
And Anchorage is in Alaska, which elected Sarah Palin governor, until she quit. Is anyone surprised the state is at least half full of idiots? |

Prop 5 - Daycare
04/01/12, 23:03
I logged in to also post in favor of Izzard Day Care. My stars for you.
And for those people who disagree, I'd ask where they'd want their children to learn the importance of the choice, "Cake or Death?" From the hoodlums on the streets? |

Ouch My Russia - bad branch break

Ouch, indeed. But I must question the title. No branch actually broke. |

Santorum's Freudian slip
03/30/12, 13:32
I have a friend that will swear up and down that there's no difference between Republicans and Democrats, then turn around and tell me why he's (still) voting solidly Republican, in spite of the party being run by religious nutters.
I'm sorry, but even if both parties are corrupted by money, one of them revels in it while the other at least makes an effort at reigning in what the monied interests are doing (though their opposites across the aisle kill any attempts). Only one party wants to give the uber-wealthy more tax breaks and kill off what little social safety net threads are still present. Only one party will propose regulatory legislation that might curb some of the economically destructive bullshit that's been going on for the past forty years, and so on.
Obama's not perfect, and neither are the Democrats. But holy mother of fuck, the GOP is an insane asylum where they play Ayn Rand audiobooks over the muzak system 24/7, except on Sundays where they all worship Supply-Side Jesus for half the day. |

Yeah, but it sucks someone took all the trees. And the clouds.
Shit, is this one of those "Star Trek" planets? |
