When does Game of Thrones Season 3 premier?

Thanks HBO.

Elder Scrolls Online sneak peak

As you might have inferred from the title this is a sneak preview of the upcoming Elder Scrolls MMO. It looks really really cool. After watching it I was really thinking about adding it to my short list of games I want to play but then I realized how much I hate games with no conclusion. I never even finished Skyrim and that game is supposed to have an actual plot (although I couldn't tell you what that plot is exactly). I'm pretty sure I would get sick of this MMO after a couple of months of dungeon crawling and leveling up.

Lets all go to Gotham High!

Here's a fan made trailer for Gotham High, a fictional movie about going to high school in Gotham City. I like it because it uses a lot of footage from 10 things I hate about you. More romantic comedies filmed in Seattle please!

Taylor Swift: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together

Friday morning means it's time for Rock out with your "oh my god I can't believe Kevin actually listens to this garbage" out. Today I'm going with the latest pop earworm that WILL NOT GET OUT OF MY HEAD! Taylor Swift's We are never ever gettiing back together. She wears big glasses in the video so it's totes nerdy, right?

The 100 Best Links

The 100 Best Video Games of All Time. It's pretty much impossible to put together a definitive list of the best video games ever, but this one isn't too bad. I like that instead of ranking them 1-100 they just go by the dates they were published. My only real big complaint is that they snubbed Red Dead Redemption which is still my favorite game of all time (sorry Ultima IV).

Real Names in Games Mean More Money for the NCAA, Executive Argued. In my mind this is a big story that's getting very little attention. Former UCLA star Ed O'Bannon and a handful of other former student athletes are suing the NCAA for improperly licensing the names, images and likenesses of former D-I football and men's basketball players in various commercial ventures without the players' permission and without providing them compensation. Yeah, I copied and pasted most of that. The gist of it is that the NCAA makes a ton of cash from companies like EA who put the likeness of the athlete's into their videogames. I'm shocked it's taken us 20 years of college sports video games to get here and I hope in the end the players get their fair share.

Cowboys & Aliens Comic Writer Fred Van Lente Live-Tweets First Viewing of the Movie. Spoiler Alert, the movie turns out so boring he doesn't have much to say. Still an interesting little anecdote.

26 Examples Proving Spider-Meme Is The Best Meme. My son has yet to get into Spider-Man cartoons. We watched one a couple weeks ago and he was pretty ambivalent towards it. He's still all Thomas the Tank Engine and Wonderpets. This morning he did ask for "robots" so I put on an episode of Transformers. If he really likes it maybe in a week or two I'll write up a big review for seasons one and two of the original series.

Mama said knock you out

Here's some grainy cell phone video of real life Seattle superhero Phoenix Jones knocking a guy the f out. Despite the terrible resolution it's pretty entertaining. I guess Washington State has a standing law allowing “mutual combat”, meaning if two people want to go at it, they can if they both agree to do so in front of authorities.

I'm a little upset that at the end the cop didn't yell out "finish him!"

Oh hi there Wasp in Iron Man 3

Fire up the speculatron, rumors are flying fast and furious today that Stephanie Szostak will be playing Janet Van Dyne, aka the Wasp, in Iron Man 3. Hit me with your best shot The Mary Sue:

First: Szostak is one of the top-billed cast members, which indicates that her character is going to have a larger role than the absolute lack of information Marvel has released about her so far would indicate.

Second: The mysterious Roger Wardell tweeted that “When Stephanie Szostak’s role is for Iron Man 3 is announced, fans will go crazy.” Wardell has made a habit of tweeting “Insider News” related to the Marvel films, and while he’s not that credible a source ScreenRant notes that he tweeted about the Falcon being in Captain America: The Winter Soldier before it became official. A tipster at ComicBook.com has also claimed that Szostak is playing the Wasp.

Third: Marvel’s given us a lot of information about Iron Man 3 so far, from tons of new armor designs to hints about the final battle. They’ve got to have an ace or two up their sleeve as far as surprising fans is concerned. ‘Tis the Marvel way.

Four: It’s already been rumored that Ant Man, a.k.a Hank Pym, will make an appearance in the Iron Man 3 post-credits sequence. Since Ant Man is the Wasp’s partner and, later, husband, introducing them both in Iron Man 3 would make sense.

Ok, that's far from conclusive evidence but since my post about Joseph Gordon-Levitt being the Joker in The Dark Knight Rises got tons and tons of hits, I'm just going to go ahead and pretend this is fact. It makes sense, Black Widow was introduced in Iron Man 2, why not introduce another Avenger in Iron Man 3? Plus the Wasp is a founding member of the Avengers she kinda got hosed by being excluded from the movie Avengers.

Adam West ftw

These are actual scans from the Yellow Pages in the town that Adam West lives in (at least that's what Reddit says). In conclusion Adam West is awesome.
