Red Dwarf X, the trailer

I'll be honest I completely forgot that they were doing a tenth season of Red Dwarf. I'm surprised how good it looks. I mean everyone involved looks awful. When did they all get so old? Lister looks like he's 70!

I guess when I think about it I shouldn't be surprised. I remember the first time I ever saw an episode of Red Dwarf I was playing with Legos. I don't know why, but that memory is seared into my brain pan. Kinda like the night I stole that chair from Cinema 12. Good Times...

The Evolution of PC Games

I had a bunch of Batman stuff queued up to go this morning but given the horrible shooting that happened this morning I didn't really feel comfortable posting it. So here's a 2 and a half minutes of old computer games (and a few new ones).

I stopped PC gaming at the right about the 2:05 mark. When did you stop?

Cowabunga

Hey Nerds, do you have 35 dollars burning a hole in your pocket and a girlfriend who doesn't mind if you dress her up like a g-d Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle? Well you're in luck because Etsy seller sceeneshoes has the handpainted Bra for you.

Seriously, whoever buys this is either totes awesome or a complete freakshow. There's just no middle ground here.

It's true because Neil deGrasse Tyson says so

If you're anything like me you spent most of last night watching reruns of Nova while trying to fix your computer using parts from 2 dead computers (one of which actually has scorch marks on it). After watching all that Nova you can imagine my pleasant surprise this morning when I saw this video of astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson proclaiming the original Star Trek Enterprise to be the greatest space ship in sci-fi history.

If tomorrow morning I see a video where Brian Greene declares who would win in a fight between Batman and Captain America my mind grapes might just explode.

BTW, I'm on twitter now (look right). Follow me.

Low bandwidth links

The Biggest Winners and Losers of Comic-Con. I'll tell you who won, Robert Downey Jr. Seriously, I think he should just change his name to Tony Stark and the pentagon should start developing him a real suit of armor. How much do I love you? THIS MUCH TONY!

Of Course ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Is A Liberal Plot To Make Mitt Romney Look Bad. Duh. Go ahead and click through to read the whole story, but to quickly recap: Uber-conservative tub-bag Rush Limbaugh believes that the villain Bane in the Dark Knight Rises is meant to sway people into voting against Mitt Romney. So yeah, some people are idiots.

20 Things you didn't know about Batman Begins. Fact #21, we have visitors in the office today and they're sucking up all the internet. I can't look up this link I saved yesterday to verify if it was really any good or not. Hopefully you have better luck!

7 Ways Grocery Stores get you to spend more money. On my first trip to Safeway after reading this I tried to walk through the store from left to right. I got so turned around I had to shoot a flare up for help. Lesson learned; Safeway does not appreciate it when you shoot off a flare gun in their stores.

2012 Comic-Con Cosplay; Small Screen Edition

It's sort of become tradition around here that after every San Diego Comic-Con I put together a post full of awesome/crazy cosplayers. I have a TON of cosplay pics from this year's Comic-Con so to help keep everything fresh and a bit more digestible I'm going to break them up into special categories. The Small Screen edition, highlights cosplayers that have taken their inspiration from classic geek TV shows like Firefly, Doctor Who or The Lone Ranger??

big time bonus for including the horses heart

the family that adventure times together stays together

Daphne A+, Fred shave that beard

Johnny Depp would have put a bird on it.

more after the jump!

Gather up your Juggalos

Yesterday if you had told me that this morning I would watch (in it's entirety) a 20 minute commercial for the 2012 Gathering of the Juggalos and be totally sold on the event, I would have called you a dirty dirty liar from whore island. But here we are...
Seriously, I'm not even typing in an ironic hipster tone here. This sounds awesome. From Kool Keith to Bobcat Goldthwait to Colt Cabana vs Vampiro to Violent J's Beach Boys BBQ Blowout! Bash! Blast! this thing has it all. Who wants to head out to Cave Rock, IL in mid August?

Thomas Jane can't stop, won't stop, Punishing

Apparently Thomas Jane has been paying attention to all the sweet movies Marvel has been producing lately and wants back in on the action. From what I hear he bankrolled this Punisher fan film called Laundry Day all by himself. It's pretty impressive, definitely better than the first Punisher movie.

I've said ad nauseum, but I really think Marvel should be doing more of this. 10 minute short movies either placed before their feature films or included on the DVD. They literally have thousands of characters, most of which don't really deserve the feature film treatment, but would rule in a 10 minute short film like this.

Nova, I'm looking in your general direction.
