Back to the TARDIS

Posted by John Farrier in Entertainment, Science Fiction on January 14, 2012 at 3:11 pm

Christopher Lloyd was a great Doc Brown, but I can’t see him as the Doctor. Yet deviantART user Ratgirlstudios’s re-imagining of a Back to the Future Part II poster prompts us to consider the possibility.

Beyonce’s “All the Trekkie Ladies”

Not sufficiently retro for you? Then you could try the Andy Griffith version of “Single Ladies.” As for me, I think that we should start an Internet movement to summon Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner, and LeVar Burton together to present a real-life version of this video.

Star Wars, Episode I: The Time Lord Menace

I’m having trouble following the plot of this Doctor Who episode. I mean more so than usual. But also like a Doctor Who episode, it’s great fun even when it doesn’t make sense. Rick Kelvington, maker of the excellent Doctor Who/Star Trek mashup, brought the Doctor (#1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11) into Episode I of Star Wars.

Walt Disney’s Sin City

I wondered “How is he going to handle Nancy Callahan?” With a clip from The Great Mouse Detective, which was rather clever. Disney movies now seem to be a bit risqué.

Starry Night is Everywhere!

Posted by Miss Cellania in Art, Crafts, Features, Neatorama Exclusives on October 7, 2011 at 5:22 am

Starry Night is a painting by Vincent Van Gogh that has proved to be an enduring iconic image. Painted in 1888, the scene shows a night sky filled with stars swirling over the French countryside, which includes a view of the village of Saint-Rémy. Since 1941, the painting has been at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. But everyone wants their own copy, or some version of Starry Night. We’ve seen a lot of them.

Suzy Myers used quilled paper to recreate Starry Night. You can see the process and closeup views at her site.

Back in April, Mattel unveiled a set of “fine art Barbies.” The collection includes a Da Vinci Mona Lisa model, another honoring Gustav Klimt, and this Barbie honoring Vincent Van Gogh with a Starry Night dress. See them all at If It’s Hip, It’s Here.

Tabitha Ballard made an award-winning cake that reproduces the Van Gogh painting.

Mashup of Lost and Gilligan’s Island in LEGO

Posted by John Farrier in Entertainment, TV on March 16, 2011 at 2:46 pm

Really, Lost and Gilligan’s Island are just ripe for a full-length parody mashup. Until then, we’ll just have to be content with Gilligan and the Skipper discovering the hatch, as Flickr user Legohaulic has imagined.
