Three Minute Superman Musical Is Still Two Minutes Too Long


(YouTube Link)

Beaming to you live from 1975, it's Superman The TV Minute Musical! With cast members like Lesley Warren and Loretta Swit you may be asking yourself "How can such an epic production go so horribly wrong?"

The answer is quite simple-hire a goofy looking guy who needs to hit the gym more than once a month to play Superman. then make it a musical with ridiculously bad lines. Thankfully, Everything Is Terrible has condensed this train wreck of a TV musical into three minutes of hilarity, so you can get the point without suffering from any long term side effects.

Scary Cool Diablo 3 Demon Hunter Cosplay



Who wants another boring old superhero costume, or another suit of Spartan armor, when you can have the allure and mystery that is this little cutie looking badass in her big ol' battle armor?

The white out contacts are a nice touch, as is the bag full of  potion vials at the ready, but I started to wonder what this Demon Hunter looks like without the armor.

Then I realized that Its_Raining_Neon's DeviantART page (link found below) would probably feature some *ahem* more revealing pics, so I checked it out and found out that pretty much all of her cosplay sessions are epic scale goodness. Be still my beating heart!

Easy Way Out Is A Stop Motion Delight


(YouTube Link)

Gotye is taking the world by storm with the heartfelt lyrics and innovative musical style found on his new album Making Mirrors, and his latest music video for the song Easy Way Out gives us a treat made especially for your eyes to enjoy.

What Rage Faces Look Like In Real Life


(YouTube Link)

Rage Faces can be used by certain awkward individuals, who seem to lack the power of speech necessary to express how they truly feel and are therefore forced to express themselves via Faces of Rage.

Watch this video closely so you'll know who to avoid as you make your way through the urban jungle. And you'd better hope that you don't get stuck in an elevator with that guy, because I'm pretty sure he has a smell to go along with his Coolface!

Nothing Happens In Twilight: The Video Game


(YouTube Link)

Want to check out the most boring awesome video game ever made, especially if it's geared towards teenage girls with a vampire fetish? Then you gotta check out Twilight: The Video Game, the game where all kinds of crazy stuff happens, unless you're Bella, in which case you just stand around waiting for someone to come along and tell you what to do while practicing your silently mopey face.

It's a game for people who don't like fun, and it's guaranteed to scare you-with boredom vampires! Brought to you by the good folks at Robot Chicken and Adult Swim, makers of fine snark since a while back.

NYC Wants To Turn Water Tanks Into Works Of Art



New York City wants to teach residents to be responsible with water by turning water towers into public works of art. The campaign is called Word Above The Street, it will take place in 2013 and will feature artworks from a myriad of artists, both famous and not, most of which will have a (surprise!) water theme.

It's a great way to add color to the urban cityscape and (legally) let people see your serious art skills, but I think the water conservation aspect will require a street team to spread the message.

Ridiculously Obvious Identity Theft



When I first saw this picture I thought "When did Jack Nicholson move to Brazil? And why did he change his name?" Then I actually read the article and discovered that this ID card is actually the handiwork of a rather moronic man trying to pass for South America's answer to Jack Nicholson. Here's the scoop:
A man from the northeastern Brazilian city of Recife was arrested today and charged with falsifying public documents after he attempted to open a bank account using an ID with a photo of world-renowned actor Jack Nicholson.

It was one of several ID cards found on his person. The Brazilian news portal G1 notes that the 41-year-old does not resemble Mr. Nicholson.

So, either the guy is totally nuts, or he thought that using a photo of a globally recognizable movie star, especially when he looks nothing like said star, would be a great way to get a fresh perspective on his life. Too bad he didn't try out for As Good As It Gets 2 before getting caught!

Princess Peach Channels Lana Del Rey


(YouTube Link)

You know her as the damsel who's eternally in distress in the Super Mario Bros. video game franchise, but does anybody bother to ask her how she feels about needing to be saved all the time?

Princess Peach channels Lana Del Rey to tell you, in her own words, why she's sick of being an end game prize, and why she longs for the days when she starred as a playable character.

Vaesen Is One Tripped Out Animated Short


(YouTube Link)

The raw talent that most animators bring to the entertainment industry never ceases to amaze me, from their grasp of concepts like timing and weight to the sheer beauty of their illustrations in motion, animators are multi-talented individuals, and they love to show their skills off to the world.

This tripped out animated short, entitled Vaesen, was created as a student film project by Adrian Dexter, Birk von Brockdorff, Arnold Bagasha, Drude Mangaard, Jody Ghani, and Mikkel V. Petersen while attending The Animation Workshop in Denmark.

There is no doubt in my mind that the team members that helped create this beautiful animated short have gone on to do bigger and better things in the industry, but one thing's for certain: this is a student project they can proudly share with the world.

The Only Real Choice For President Is A Puppet


(YouTube Link)

Let's face it, most Presidents end up being somebody's puppet soon after they're elected into office, so why don't we just elect a puppet outright?

Marvin E. Quasniki, Nerdist.com's candidate for President of these United States of America, seems like a great choice with a realistic American dream-lower your expectations, wallow in mediocrity, and be glad that your family members aren't running around hungry for brains!

Join Marvin, and his adorably lazy bulldog, for a good old fashioned fireside chat-for Freedom.

Man Inherits Million Dollar Comic Book Collection

It's a story you've heard before-a cache of Golden Age comics are discovered and end up being worth a bundle. But this collection, inherited by Michael Rorrer from his aunt, contained 44 of Overstreet Price Guide's Top 100 issues, including Action Comics #1, Detective Comics #27 (1st appearance of Batman), and Captain America #2, just to name a few. Here's more on this incredible inheritance:

"This is just one of those collections that all the guys in the business think don't exist anymore," said Lon Allen, the managing director of comics for Heritage Auctions, the Dallas-based auction house overseeing the sale.

The Action Comics No. 1 — which Wright bought when he was about 11 — is expected to sell for about $325,000. A Detective Comics No. 27, the 1939 issue that features the first appearance of Batman, is expected to get about $475,000. And the Captain America No. 2 with Hitler on the cover that had caught Rorrer's eye? That's expected to bring in about $100,000.

Allen, who called the collection "jaw-dropping," noted that Wright "seemed to have a knack" for picking up the ones that would be the most valuable. The core of his collection is from 1938 to 1941.

Man, all the older generations in my family ever did with comic books is throw them in the trash or use them to mop up oil leaks on the driveway!

The Cigarette Smoking Man Is A Waterskiing Champ



William B. Davis is best known for the role he played on the TV series The X-Files-the shadowy Cigarette Smoking Man. But did you know that he's an author, film director, screenwriter and a champion water skiier?

Looks like he wasn't smoking real cigarettes in the show after all, unless he managed to get a top secret lung replacement procedure from an alien unknown source.

If you're keen to find out more about Walter hit the link below, where you can read on and watch an interview that casts him in a much warmer light than his work on The X Files ever could.

Pancake Molds Shaped Like Star Wars Vehicles



I love pancakes, they're one of my faves, but a lot of youngsters don't see the attraction when they sit down to breakfast with the fam. That's where these clever cooking gadgets come in: they're pancake molds shaped like Star Wars vehicles, which will make breakfast more fun for kids, and will probably start some epic pancake battles in the space above the dining room table.

And, don't get me wrong, these obviously aren't just for kids, but I don't think the in-laws will feel the same way about them as you do, unless you're lucky enough to have married into a family of Star Wars geeks!

Kids Swede Monty Python And The Holy Grail


(YouTube Link)

Want to make Monty Python and the Holy Grail even more ridiculous? Cast a bunch of kids who don't really know their lines and let them do their own sweded version of the Black Knight scene from the classic comedy film. I hope they continue to swede scenes from the Holy Grail until they've remade the entire movie, wouldn't that be adorable?!
