Lounge singer Richard Cheese led his band in this jazzy version of the Imperial March from Star Wars. I love the name for his band: Lounge Against the Machine.

--thanks, Gauldar!

An artist(s?) that goes by the handle Old Red Jalopy made four Star Wars movie posters modeled after other famous movie posters. Pictured above is one mashed up with American Beauty.

Craftster user styupe made this lovely star-shaped afghan in a traditional Spider-Man motif. At the link, you can also see a smaller rug using the same pattern.

This mysterious video appears to be a promotional video for some Mortal Kombat movie or video game. One rumor posits that it's from Kevin Tancharoen's proposed reboot of the franchise. Starring the wonderful Jeri Ryan as Sonya Blade.

Content warning: very gory.

Thanks to Johnny Cat for the tip.

Super Delicious Ingredient Force is a Taco Bell commercial that is modeled after the 70s cartoon Super Friends. Captain Enchilada Sauce, Flex Tortilla, Commander Seasoned Beef, and the others respond to culinary crises. Quickly, to the El Camino!

Well, I guess in lieu of an actual girlfriend....

So what's the combo for a spinning jump kick?

Adam Savage of Mythbusters sang a Gollum version of the Gloria Gaynor song "I Will Survive" at w00tstock Chicago. That's apparently a regular geek musical and comedy festival. Wil Wheaton was there, so I assume that it's good.

Sadly, this is a photoshop. Which is a shame, because Patrick Stewart's recently knighting by Queen Elizabeth would have been all the more awesome.

At least, I assume that it's a photoshop. Maybe it's real. If so, she should have cleaned the right-most tine a little more.

Jim of Jim's Pancakes makes elaborate and fanciful pancakes for his young daughter. Recently, he depicted Tetris in this medium:

This is a pretty accurate depiction of how I play Tetris on my computer too. I’m usually okay until about level 3, then my brain starts to overheat. Luckily when you make tetris pancakes, if you get frustrated you can just eat up the block and make new ones

Being able to outrun and kill zombies in a video game has nothing to do with surviving a real-life zombie attack. That's why the people behind ZombieFit have developed a parkour-based physical fitness program that they claim will prepare users to stay mobile and safe during an actual zombie attack:

The keys to surviving Z-day are simple: Be able to lift and throw heavy things, run fast and for long distances, and be able to navigate obstacles and urban environments in an efficient manner. By following the ZombieFit WODs (workout of the day) and practicing parkour, you will achieve increased fitness through the performance of functional movements at high intensity and find within yourself the internal discipline and mental fortitude necessary to become a traceur.

One drill that I've been doing lately is to wear my bug-out pack and carry a 25 pound bag of dog food in my arms on a 2 mile off-trail run though a local state park. The dog food represents the weight of my toddler, whom I would have to carry during an evacuation. Running on a treadmill isn't bad, but there are better, more realistic ways of exercising.

What do you do to prepare your body to survive a zombie attack?

I don't know who the artist is, but he doesn't have a lot of confidence in Imperial military recruiting efforts.

deviantART user Wolf-Shadow77 takes audio clips from the Half-Life video game series and places them in different contexts in her cartoons. A combine zombie is, you know, a zombine. Right?

Also Franz Beckenbauer, Noel Gallagher, Ian Brown, Ciara, Jay Baruchel, DJ Neil Armstrong. But the best part is Snoop Dogg getting into a barfight.

This 2002 performance by a defunct band that I think is called Ulu presents a jazzed-up version of the Super Mario Bros. theme music. via reddit

The Kor Memorial Scholarship is offered by the Klingon Language Institute in honor of the great Klingon warrior Kor (left). Although one isn't required to be fluent in Klingon to apply, it certainly wouldn't hurt. The award of $500 is offered to full-time students pursuing language studies.
