The Un-Official Angry Birds Movie Trailer

Posted by Zeon Santos in Entertainment, Gaming, Video Clips on December 9, 2011 at 8:32 pm

(YouTube Link)

This Angry Birds parody trailer looks like it was made by Guy Ritchie, and really has nothing to do with the video game aside from the whole “pigs snatch their eggs, so the birds get revenge” dynamic. But it’s sexy, funny, and really slick looking for a comedy short.

Toadwart’s Advanced Guide To Power-Ups

Posted by Zeon Santos in Art, Art & Design, Book & Literature, Design, Entertainment, Film, Pictures on November 29, 2011 at 10:53 pm

This visual guide has been released in order to prevent confusion when you discover these magical items in the world of the Mario Bros. Created by Juxtapop, this nicely illustrated guide was inspired by the Harry Potter universe:

I finally got around to watching every Harry Potter film.  Never saw them before, never read the books.  Then it hit me.  They have all the same powers as Mario.

So, while they may have the same powers at their disposal, Mario totally pwns Harry Potter in every way.

Care Bears In Real Life

Posted by Zeon Santos in Animals & Pets, Art, Art & Design, Living, Photography, Pictures on October 25, 2011 at 11:07 pm

There’s something about these Care Bears that’s not quite right. Maybe it’s the massive fangs, or sharp claws, or the fact that the symbol on the bear’s stomach seems to be running. Something tells me these bears don’t want to hug and sing songs!

Dora The Explorer, All Grown Up

Posted by Alex in Video Clips on October 11, 2011 at 6:23 pm

Every parent who has little kids would appreciate this: "Dora The Explorer" for adults, a spoof by Greenstorm Film. The Fiesta Trio would've approved.

But don't let your kids watch this, hmm? For reasons of gory violence and premature termination of childlike innocence.

Pokemon Parody By Creator Of Adventure Time


(YouTube Link)

When Pendleton Ward, creator of the Cartoon Network hit series Adventure Time, and animator Natasha Allegri want to tell a joke they use an adorable animated short to deliver the punchline, a short that happily spoofs Pokemon with tongue-in-cheek reverence.

Watch as Ash shows Pikachu the rules concerning passing gas in public, and be amazed when your normally stoic expression softens into a toothy grin!

Consider… Pee-Wee Herman

Remember those ads actress Melissa Leo did in the weeks leading up to the Oscars asking members of the Academy to consider her for the little gold man? Well, it’s back – but this time it’s Pee-Wee Herman preening by a pool in a faux-fur coat. The pitch-perfect spoof is a little reminder that alter ego Paul Reubens’ Pee-Wee HBO special is up for an Emmy.

On June 3, 1981 Harlan the Monkey became the first primate to ever walk on the moon. Harlan died on November 18, 2009 of an apparent Tang overdose.

How do you improve the runaway sleeper hit Paranormal Activity, which was made on a budget of $15,000 and has grossed nearly $90 million so far?

Add goats.

The 30-Second Bunnies Theatre Library

Posted by Queuebot in Comics & Cartoons on January 28, 2009 at 4:11 pm

Re-enacting a movie in 30 seconds, needless to say, is tricky. But these crazy bunnies certainly have the imagination.

From Casablanca to Snakes on a Plane, one thing that the folks at Angry Alien Productions sure doesn't lack is a great sense of humor.

Mail Order Husbands

Posted by Alex in Blogs & Internet on January 12, 2009 at 1:55 am

Guys have been able to erhm, order, a mail order bride from Russia and Asia for quite some time now. But what about the ladies? Fulfilling an obviously under-served niche is this fantastic website, Mail Order Husbands.

This one to the left is "Steven"

I’m definitely a classic romantic. I like a candlelight dinner, some quiet background music, and a couple hits of ether. I prefer a woman that has insurance and a car would be great as I need to make the occassional trip to Mexico to pick up "souvenirs".

I’m sure this is the foremost questions your mind:

Q: What does it cost the parties involved?

Art: It all depends on the demand. We have an excellent variety of quality bachelors, and the highest demand is for men around 30 years old with lots of hair. For example if you want to order a 52 year old bald man who has bad psioriasis, well then maybe $600.. but say we had a candidate that looked like a young Erik Estrada, well that kind of product doesn’t last long, we typically charge around $9,000.

Don’t forget to take the compatibility test! Link – via Rue the Day
