This was your father's lightsaber. He killed several dozen kittens with it. Don't point it at your face and you'll be fine.
Later, Luke Catwalker would attribute the loss of his paw to a great duel against a mighty opponent. Obidog never revealed the truth.
It's a world of sadness, a world of tears, an ugly world full of all our fears, it's a world full of pain and fluids that stain, it's a dark world after all!
This may very well become the theme song for Banksy's newest social commentary creation- Dismaland Bemusement Park, the saddest place on Earth!
Dismaland is a 2.5 acre underground art attraction built on the site of a long derelict seaside swimming resort in Weston-super-Mare, UK, and this time Banksy is sharing his space with 50 other artists to really wow the world.
Banksy is such a household name these days that this park could actually make some good money, but true to Banksy form "The UK's most disappointing new visitor attraction" will be open for five weeks and cost visitors only £3 for admission.

Animators often start out wishing they could tell the world a visual story via their own cartoon show, but that goal is often short-lived because you gotta pay your rent and cranking out cartoons doesn't pay much.
And those who are lucky enough to land a job as an animator, or anything in the realm of visual arts, often feel like their creative job kills their drive to do their own stuff, and the cycle of animated abuse begins.
Each episode of an animated show takes months to bring to life (unless you’re working on South Park, they crank out an episode in a week), and can cost millions to make (Family Guy costs $2 million per episode).
A group of animation industry alum put together an awfully informative article on Cracked that reveals some of the sad truths about working as an animator. Now I'm really glad I still owe tens of thousands of dollars for animation school!

The Looney Tunes have found themselves in all sorts of different universes doing all kinds of strange and exciting things, from playing B-Ball with Michael Jordan to making Brendan Fraser seem funny.
Since DC Comics is part of Warner Bros. Entertainment the animated superstars of the Looney Tunes universe can visit a new world way more exciting than the rest, the world of the DC Superheroes!
Here's more info about this upcoming crossover event:
This November, Superman and many of his fellow DC Comics heroes will find themselves teaming up with the likes of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig and all the rest of the Looney Tunes (including everyone’s second favorite Martian) in over two dozen hilarious variant covers.
GeekTyrant has collected 24 of these DC Comics/Looney Tunes variant covers for your eyeballs to enjoy, now if only they could turn this crazy cool crossover into an animated series...
As a kid I tuned in to the Peanuts animated specials to see Snoopy doing some ridiculously undoglike things, like flying a plane or preparing a Thanksgiving meal, and he definitely stole the show away from Charlie Brown and the rest of the Peanuts gang.
However, Peanuts purists saw Snoopy as the dog who singlehandedly sank the strip.
Peanuts was a much more serious strip to begin with, dealing with the trials and tribulations faced by children and then Charles Schulz started using the Peanuts kids as a mouthpiece for bigger, more adult (and more American) issues.
Then along came Snoopy to silly the whole thing up, which is ironic considering he's had some of the saddest moments in the animated specials (remember Snoopy, Come Home?)
Kevin Wong of Kotaku isn't afraid to share what might be an unpopular opinion about Snoopy in his article How Snoopy Killed Peanuts, give it a read and see if you agree.
If you know anything about Apocalypse Now's creation, you probably already know that it was a pretty strange scene from the start. Even if you know about the drugs, blood and money problems on set, you probably still don't know all the fascinating facts from this great article.
For example, did you know that Robert Redford, Jack Nicholson, Steve McQueen, and Al Pacino were all offered the role eventually played by Martin Sheen, but they all turned it down? Additionally, Harvey Keitel was cast in the role before Sheen, but he was eventually fired.
Check out the rest of the strange and interesting trivia over at Flavorwire.
Pac-Man seems like it has a pretty simple storyline- hungry round-headed dude goes on a munchies tear, which upsets the resident ghosts who have sworn to protect the pellets they use to propagate their unique spectral species.
Oh, and sometimes the ghosts make themselves some tasty food like pretzels or glazed cherries which Pac-Man proceeds to gobble up like a fiend.
Turns out I've had the tale of that Pac attacker all wrong since childhood, because according to this radical strip by SMBC comics the Pac-Man storyline is “like Kafka wrote a Lovecraft story”.
Now I'm going to have nightmares about Pac-Man!

We’ve all seen the alternate Spideysuits being paraded around the interwebs, and bigshots like Iron Man and Wolverine have had plenty of opportunities to show off their extensive wardrobes because they're big shots in the Marvel comic universe.
But what about the small time (and often overshadowed) superfolks who want to show off their awesome alternate costumes?
They're on Ranker's exhaustive list of The Best Alternate Costumes In Marvel Comics alongside the big names, and the list is community ranked and allows you to cast your own vote.
It's like flipping through a comic book costume catalog, and it's a definite must for those thinking about cosplaying or looking for badass Halloween costume ideas.
No matter how realistic video games become there’s one element that will always set them apart from real life- the concept of extra lives.
In video games you can amass extra lives, come back to life and replay the same scene over and over again until you get it right, and survive a barrage of bullets, but in real life it takes only one bullet to kill.
Games that have tried to make character death permanent aren't very well received, because people play to escape reality and not to be reminded of how fragile our human bodies really are.
Julia Lepetit of Dorkly has kindly created this illustrated guide to how long the average human would last if video games were real, to warn us about the unique dangers found in each genre.
There are a lot of celebrity selfies online these days, and a seemingly equal amount of celeb selfie parodies, and since the celebrities aren't likely to stop posting pictures of themselves we can only hope the parodies keep coming!
Those who are thinking about creating their own parodies had better bring the funny, because Australian comedian Celeste Barber has set the bar really high in the Instagram selfie world with her super silly selfie recreations.
Celeste is even willing to risk a self inflicted case of whiplash to entertain the interwebs, now that's what I call commitment to a bit!
In the end there would be no Celeste without celebrity self obsession, and channeling all that Hollywood ego is bound to go to your head.

There are two locations in Malaysia and a new one opening soon in Singapore. JT Network, the company which owns them, already operates DC Comics shops in Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, and Malaysia. Now they're adding food service with dishes inspired by Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. The Bat Burger is wagyu beef with a black bun and a cheesy Batman symbol. You can view more photos of the cafe's foods at Comic Book Resources.

Early movie aliens were strange beings from another planet who mankind learned to fear, but somewhere along the way movie aliens became cute (albeit odd looking) visitors who came to teach us lessons about ourselves.
E.T. is one of the best known movie aliens, but where E.T. (arguably) succeeded in being more cute than creepy others missed the mark by an Endorian mile.
Remember that E.T. ripoff sponsored by McDonald’s called Mac and Me? That alien's stupid face haunted me after I took my little sister to see that movie in the theater, and then my sis had a hard time sleeping because she thought Mac was in her closet!
Check out this totally classic io9 article from a few years back about 12 Aliens That Were Supposed To Be Cute But Are Actually Creepy and see if you agree with their choices.
If asked which movie genre a Legend Of Zelda adaptation belongs in most people would say fantasy, but you’d be surprised how well Link’s adventures would work as a Spaghetti Western!
The creative video minds at Beat Down Boogie made this cinematic short film called “Hang ‘Em Hyrule”, where Zelda proves she don't need savin' and Ganon shows he ain't done misbehavin'.
It’s equal parts ode to Spaghetti Western showdowns and cool period setting where Link and Zelda can prove they’re legends in a whole new way.

San Francisco is home to Fisherman’s Wharf, those cute cable cars, sourdough chowder bowls, the Golden Gate Bridge and, saving the best for last, the Tanner family from Full House.
That’s it, that’s all there is in SF, the whole Bay Area actually, unless you're into sports.
If you do watch the sporting stuff then you’re probably familiar with a certain team that won the 2014 World Series called the San Francisco Giants.
The Giants are apparently big fans of SF’s most treasured TV family, so they decided to recreate the Full House opening credits as a team, to show their Friends Of Tanner Family pride.
Oh, and they’re having a Full Clubhouse night on September 30th where they’ll be giving out snowglobes featuring the San Francisco townhouses seen in the Full House intro. Come to think of it, that’s probably why they made this video!
