D'oh! Lego Simpsons

I ran across this video over at AmyOops. I'm not even a big fan of The Simpsons, but I still found this to be freakin' awesome.

People do some amazing stuff with Legos these days. Its a far cry from the lame Lego creations I used to make as a kid.

The Hunt for Gollum

The first of two Lord of the Rings prequels, The Hobbit, is slated for a 2012 theatrical release. Luckily for LOTR geeks, though, they don't have to wait that long to get a satisfactory LOTR fix.

That satisfactory fix can be found in the form of fan-made film The Hunt for Gollum. 

Yes. A fan film. And trust me, it really is that good.

The Hunt for Gollum is a 40-minute long film that was released online via its official website earlier this month. Its visual style is heavily inspired by Peter Jackson's work on the trilogy. Its Wikipedia page best explains where this story fits into the LOTR timeline.

It was made by director Chris Bouchard and Independent Online Cinema for around $5000. That's amazing considering most films with millions of bucks in their budget aren't half as good as this flick.

If you're a fan of The Lord of the Rings then I highly recommend that you check out The Hunt for Gollum. And would you look at that? I've made it easy for you to do so by conveniently including the film right here in this very post.

Any theories on this case, House? I conifer it out. <rimshot>

That's What She Said

Not Long Ago in a Supermarket Not So Far Away ...

I saw this video a year or so ago but had completely forgot about it until I ran across it over at Phil's Place earlier. I'm sure you've all realized by now that we're usually not gonna pass up the chance to post some kickass Star Wars-related content, especially when it's as awesome as this video.

Where'd You Go, Debbie Gibson and Lorenzo Lamas?

Actually, this isn't a new installment of "Where'd You Go?", but it does answer that very question about not just one but TWO famous faces from the past. The celebrities in question are '80s teen pop music sensation, Debbie Gibson, and the Renegade himself, Lorenzo Lamas. (The title of the post was a dead give away for those of you that are good with context clues.)

So, what does one have to do with the other and, more importantly, where'd they go? Well, try not to get too excited, but they're starring in an upcoming movie together!

Hell yes! Only in my dreams did I think I'd get to see Deborah Gibson (yeah, Debbie grew up and changed her name) and Lorenzo Lamas sharing the big screen. Fucking awesome!

Okay, I confess I've never had that dream or one even remotely similar to it. And maybe we're not exactly talking about the big screen either ... well, unless you happen to have a really huge ass television because, unfortunately, it's a direct-to-DVD flick. However, the fortunate part is we don't have to wait long because the DVD hits store shelves tomorrow. (Side note: I also found May 26 listed as a possible release date, so who knows?) 

The name of this sure-to-be DVD mega-hit: Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus. (mega-hit ... mega shark ... see what I did there?) Sounds like an action-packed underwater adventure, huh?

Yes. As far as I can tell, this trailer is legit, and Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus will indeed be released on DVD tomorrow. 

Strangely enough, the trailer has taken on a viral life of its own over the last week or so, spreading quite rapidly throughout the Interwebs. So, don't be surprised when this flick is recognized as a cult classic in a few years. In fact, this movie might even give Kurt Angle's End Game some competition as the "Best Movie Ever Made."

As for Deborah "Don't Call Me Debbie" Gibson, judging from this trailer, she still looks pretty damn hot after all these years. That fact alone is reason enough to buy rent this DVD.

Michael Bay's Next Epic Film

Cereal for Breakfast ... if it were directed by Michael Bay.

It could use more Michael Bay-esque explosions. Otherwise, this could be Bay's best work.

By the way, YouTube user ChrisCapel1998 is the creative genius behind this video.

Megan Fox Hearts the Boobies

Hollywood hottie Megan Fox is making headlines (and heads spin) again by teasing her possible love for the fairer sex. 

Reportedly, during her interview for the June issue of Esquire magazine, Fox hinted that she might be just a little bit bisexual. Now, replace the words "might be just a little bit" with "is". 

A quote from the interview goes something like this: "I have no question in my mind about being bisexual."

Damn.

Apparently, Fox goes on to discuss other things in the interview, such as her intelligence and ... ah, who cares? She's bisexual! Fuck yeah!

The star of Transformers and the soon-to-be-released sequel, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, has raised eyebrows, along with other things, before by making similar comments.

In an interview with GQ last year, she discussed being in love with a Russian stripper named Nikita when she was younger. In the same interview she called actress Olivia Wilde, and I quote, "so sexy she makes me want to strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands." So, that's what the kids are calling sex these days? 

If you could only see the mental images I've got going through my head right now ... OMFG. It's very possible that my brain is going to explode from bisexual Megan Fox mental image overload. 

Those Geeks and Their Badassed Tattoos

For all its pictures of cats and sunsets, Flickr still ranks as a treasure trove for quality photographic content of virtually any description -- even the rarely documented octopus fetish (Link NSFW).

While browsing Flickr the other day, not necessarily for cephalopodic erotica, I discovered the 'Geek Tattoos!' group -- a gallery of geek badassedness that boasts over 1,100 photos strong.

Here are links to 10 of my personal favorites, but this selection is but a tiny slice of the Live-Long-and-Prosper Pie at 'Geek Tattoos!,' so be sure to surf through the group's pool at your leisure.

10. As you might imagine, there is a mountain of tattoo tributes to the Caped Crusader. This one, which includes a Joker cameo, made me say, "Holy Pwnage, Batman!".

9. Three words: Robotic arm, bitches.

8. Like Batman, Spidey is livin' large in the world of geek ink. The classic comic book style puts this one among the best of the best.

7. Alien conspiracies, the paranormal and a dash of paranoia make great themes for geek body art. Of course, so would a pin-up style tat of Agent Dana Scully, but whatev.

6. Star Wars probably pushes more weight in the world of geeked-up tattooery than any other franchise, but this one puts a different spin on the forces at play between Rebellion and Empire. As one Ewok-squashing commenter put it after seeing this tatt, " ... MY HEAD HAS EXPLODED."

5. Buckner & Garcia didn't even take it close to this level. Poseurs.

4. Because, really, how many Vision tattoos does a person actually see in a lifetime? My guess? One, maybe two if you are a regular comic con attendee.

3. Q: What do you get when you cross a traditional Japanese Koi tattoo and that three-eyed fish from The Simpsons? A: An epic win.

2. "T-U-R-T-L-E Power", sayeth Partners in Kryme.

1. Nintendo knuckle tattoo is hardcore.

Monster Backflip

I saw Travis Pastrana attempt this same stunt on MTV's Nitro Circus not long ago. He failed miserably.

This begs the question: Why was I watching MTV? Don't worry. I don't make a habit out of it. After watching him participate in the X Games for so many years, I've come to find Pastrana entertaining, so I catch his show from time to time. Dude is fearless, as are the rest of the Nitro Circus cast. Fearless makes for good television ... sometimes.

Anyway, the guy in this monster truck succeeded where Pastrana couldn't. Of course, this dude probably can't land a double backflip on a motorcycle. Better yet, I bet he can't backflip a Big Wheel either. Advantage: Pastrana. 

Still though, this is quite impressive.

I never realized that ninjas could be this fuckin' hot since, with all their sneaking around and disappearances in clouds of smoke, they're rarely seen ... well, except when they're demonstrating their various martial arts skills by kicking asses. 

Stealth and the ability to pierce your heart with a throwing star are apparently sexy. Who knew?

Happy Star Wars Day ... or Something

I'm pretty sure that anyone could take one quick look around this blog and find it obvious that Duke and I are big Star Wars fans. Hell, there's some sort of Star Wars-related post on almost every page.

So, with May 4 being declared Star Wars Day, it would almost be blasphemy if we didn't at least mention it. I'll have to admit, though, I think this might be the dumbest idea for a "holiday" that I've ever heard. Thank god all holidays aren't based on bad puns.

Anyway, as stupid as this sounds ...

Where'd You Go, Randy Savage?

If for some unforeseen reason you happened to miss the first two installments of "Where'd You Go?", not only should you be ashamed of yourself, but you also have some catching up to do. So, be sure to check them out as we looked at the careers and recent whereabouts of comedic icon Pauly Shore and Up All Night sex symbol Rhonda Shear. 

As for today's edition, we'll be discussing the Madness ... the Macho Madness, that is. I've made mention before that I'm a lifelong professional wrestling fan. So, it goes without saying that I've been following this dude's career since I was a youngster. Actually, when I was very young, he kind of frightened me because he seemed just a little off his rocker ... and I still wouldn't swear that he's not. So ...

Where'd you go, "Macho Man" Randy Savage?

How we know him:

During his wrestling career, he was a 6-time World Champion -- twice in WWE and four times in WCW.

He coined the kickass catchphrases "Oooh yeah!" and "Dig it!"

As a spokesman for Slim Jim, he encouraged all of us to "Snap into a Slim Jim!"

He portrayed fictional wrestler Bone Saw McGraw in Spider-Man. (Useless trivia: Did you know that the wrestler Peter Paker faced in the comic books was Crusher Hogan, not Bone Saw McGraw?)

Where he went:

When his WCW contract expired in 2000, Savage entered semi-retirement. He made a return to professional wrestling in 2004 for TNA Wrestling, however this return was short-lived. Upon leaving TNA, he again entered into semi-retirement and hasn't been seen in a wrestling ring since.

In 2003, Savage released a hip-hop album entitled Be a Man. Yes, a hip-hop album! I'm guessing you've never heard of it, which is a good indication of how successful this endeavor was for the Macho Man. Maybe he should've titled it WTF, because that's the first thing I thought when I heard about it.

Aside from his lone musical venture, the Macho Man has also done some voice work in animation, including appearances on King of the Hill and Family Guy. In fact, he also landed a role in Disney's 2008 animated feature film, Bolt.

Father Time has body slammed Savage, as well. At 56 years of age, his trademark brown beard has turned completely gray, as seen in the photo to the left which was taken at the Bolt premiere in November of last year. Maybe he should get some of that Just For Men hair coloring stuff that Emmitt Smith keeps shamelessly promoting.

In June of this year, WWE will release a 3-disc DVD set of some of Savage's greatest matches, presumably including his epic match with Ricky Steamboat at Wrestlemania III.

Where he should've went:

Savage should go back to WWE for the sole purpose of dropping the Flying Elbow on John Cena ... repeatedly ... while Cookie Monster twists Cena's ankle.

Your New World Heavyweight Champion ... Cookie Monster!

There can't be that many opportunities for a blue, cookie-craving monster on Sesame Street. More often than not, Cookie Monster is overshadowed by an overgrown yellow pigeon, a dirty green garbage-dweller, and an irritating red dude with a tickling fetish.

That's why I suggest that he packs his bags and leaves Sesame Street to pursue a career in professional wrestling. With a wacky gimmick like his, he'd be WWE Champion within a month. 

I know I'd never miss an episode of Raw if Cookie Monster were beating the shit out of that annoying John Cena every week.
