Heh. I thought the exact same thing when I saw the aquaman headline yesterday.

I'd actually argue that Combat Basketball was even worse than Shaq Fu. But that might just be my Lambieer hate talking...

"Tron will never meet CLUeless"

As you can see, I ENJOY CAPITAL LETTERS!

FYI, the Kindle version of Daniel Abraham's FUCKING AMAZING new epic fantasy THE DRAGON'S PATH (which George Martin and others have very rightly raved about) has the WHOLE NOVEL of LEVIATHAN WAKES as bonus content right now. Both books for $9.99 is a pretty sick deal: [amzn.to]

Nice companion piece to the last one. The tables are turned!

Yeah, I was geeked when Monster Brains put these up.

Awesome. I'm curious, though, about the tech used to do this. Some parts (esp. the dancer in the beginning) look computer-ish. If this wasn't done with 40s tech then in some sense it's more of a 'version' of Destino than an actual Dali/Disney team-up. Still cool, but maybe a smidge less organic-looking than a 40s

Heh. I was about to post this shitty X-men toy commercial form c.1990 where this fucking obnoxious kid goes "Lost again, Magneeeeto!" and argue that *that* was Magneto's most depressing defeat. But when I went to look for it online, I found it had already been written about - by some crafty, presicent sumabitch

"One of the reasons that I've always liked the first one was that all of the characters in it were a little off...

Here's an idea - if producers are so hot to 'upgrade' (ie, ruin) the most distinctive, original aspect of a movie - the thing the movie is *named after* - maybe they should just MAKE A NEW FUCKING MOVIE instead...

Updating PV is especially dumb b/c the character's awesomeness came from being a relic of a bygone era. He was the Universal-to-Hammer years of horror incarnate, washed up in the age of the 80s slasher but then redeemed. The movie's *named after* the character's TV show, ferkrissakes! Not that any of that will matter

Meh. Colin Farrell in a wifebeater =/= scary. And Chris Angel instead of an old-school Hammer Bros style star is just annoying. 'Update' is not the same thing as 'upgrade.'

It's really just a flower petal, and formerly underground animator Bakshi slipped in this ill-advised two-second snorting gag. Parents lost their minds and the show was canceled.

Now playing

Don't forget the 1.5 secs of Mighty Mouse that outraged the Just Say No parents of the 80s...

"For the most part, the news it good. Only 68 attacks have been documented in the last one hundred and nine years."

"Grand Theft Picnic Basket"

Gi Joe sorta kinda almost did that one already...

Before I even read the comments I knew this thread would have at least a few 'Oooohh and these primitives are about to have nukes' comments.'

Stupid link won't work. Anyway, I was *trying* to say that I've played that RPG before...:
