that's because one of those heads seems to be Red Hulk - aka General Thunderbolt Ross (Betty's father, and lifelong nemesis of the Hulk).

I've started working on a couple of minecraft mods recently, and really I'm not having too much trouble with stuff by way of Forge. Sure it would be nice to have the core game support a mod API directly, but Forge has done all the legwork for most people now. Even end-users have it easy now.. just drop the zip/jar…

That's because this isn't actually a He-Man movie at all, but a Superman-Vs-Darkseid script (ever wonder why Skeletor arrives versus Boom Tube?) that got repurposed (with incredibly minimal effort) into the He-Man film at the last minute. Gwildor was never meant to be based on Orko, he's Metron.

In the extended universe, it's heavily implied that humanity looks like Gallifreyans because, as one of the oldest humanoid species in the universe, their morphic field laid down the pattern for the other species - and the reason he likes Britain so much, is because we resemble the Timelords so much.

fine, have it your way, but remember only if she's English. that part is inviolable.

gotta remember, those first transformers were rebranded Takara Diaclone toys, which were designed to have human pilots (kinda like ZOIDS). ever wonder why optimus prime's cab folded down, to reveal a driver's seat?

I think you've kinda nailed it there as far as where the 'ick' factor really comes from.

I think it's pretty heavily implied that B4 was not overwritten by Data, but just given his memories. Although not overtly stated, the implication is that Data rejected the option of taking over B4's mind, but gave him his memories to give B4 a leg-up at having the life that had been denied to him by being left…

"That has to be the shittiest power ever!"

for the longest time back on alt.tv.doctorwho , the favorite fan theory was that the Master was the doctor after his 12th regeneration, gone mad with desperation over never having accomplished his true goal, and convinced that he should steal the life of his prior incarnations to 'do it right' in a twisted version of…

yep, pretty sure that's mean to be 'floors'

actually, plenty needs to be said about it - like how did you know the script was taken from a cancelled 'Superman vs Darkseid' film? yup. makes a LOT more sense now doesn't it?

Lungbarrow is a little bit more than trope-ish 'chosen one'. more along the lines of how one rebel accidentally creates the society he's rebelling against, in one massive universe-spanning ouroborous. if there's any choosing going on there, it's that the doctor chose...himself.

"I'm Thor"

It'd been noted on a few occasions that the aliens in signs, make a lot more sense if they're seen as a Demon invasion, interpreted as "Aliens" by modern rationalism, considering the rest of the movie, this theory does seem to gel a little more - and of course, if anything is going to exist without watery cells, you'd…

well, they didn't think they were altering themselves to look like transport machines, they thought they were blending in with the native mechanical lifeform of earth (cars).

hah, me too, I worked over in Security at Wireless - always thought the simulated dialtone was a bit...odd... still, I came to this article just to post about this same bit of trivia too.

dammit Kotaku, when do I just get to +1 comments, instead of having to reply to them? Oh well, here we go. I was very confident that this remake would be good.. I was there at PAX East when they went "yeah, we can add the soldiers with the Guile hairstyle back in as DLC!" (thanks to a question from the audience, no…

Let's not forget the other rather nifty story about RADAR while we're on the subject. To throw the germans off the scent of their new detection technology, the war office circulated stories of how their pilots were eating more carrots, to improve their night vision. Disinformation become urban legend for mothers and…

Yeah, the nonsensical 'people as batteries' thing is explained away in the Animatrix pretty well. The machines can't bring themselves to actually wipe out humanity, but they realize that they can't allow us to live amongst them either. The Matrix is basically a massive wildlife preserve for humanity. The whole…
