From the Depths

Posted by Zardoz on Wed, Oct 7th 2009, 1:37 pm

The Man From Atlantis surfaces, whether you want him to or not. I remember watching and enjoying this show, but then I watched a lot of garbage in the 70's.

Biddy-biddy-biddy-BUCK!

New Who Goes By "DW"

Posted by Zardoz on Tue, Oct 6th 2009, 10:22 am

The BBC has just unveiled the new Doctor Who logo that will be used when new Doctor Matt Smith takes over next year.

It's OK, I guess - made better with sound and motion (and some lens flares for Starbuck). I wasn't all that attached to the flattened oval one we've been using since the relaunch anyway.

Bat on Wheels

Posted by Zardoz on Fri, Oct 2nd 2009, 9:14 am

Why they chose this design over a replica Adam West Batman suit I'll never understand:

Produced under license from Warner Bros. Consumer Products on behalf of DC Comics, the Universal Designs Dark Knight Motorcycle Suit is a stunning recreation of one of the most iconic movie costumes of all time. The Dark Knight Motorcycle Suit comprises a full-leather jacket that includes lightweight interior lining, as well as molded-leather and Kevlar armor sections; pants that include heavy-duty, four-way stretch Spandex inserts and CE-approved armor; authentic gloves and boots that replicate the amazing on-screen design.

Grand Unification Theory

Posted by Zardoz on Thu, Oct 1st 2009, 10:05 am

So at least one person is attempting to explain all of Superman's varied powers through a single "ability" which might account for all of them.

The article is fine, but I'm personally impressed that "Super Hypnosis" is covered by the time it reaches the fifth comment/response. As usual, the comments section trumps the original post.

Proud? Ashamed? Not Sure.

Over at Rotten Tomatoes They've compiled a list of the 100 Worst-Reviewed Movies of the Last Ten Years that they're calling:

The Worst of the Worst

(Note that they do not include the hyphen in worst-reviewed thereby changing the meaning somewhat.)

ANYWAY! I'm not sure how to feel; I have only seen one of these movies. Not that I necessarily want to see Daddy Daycare, but there are a number of sci-fi films on the list. I have tried to watch two more of them but was unable to bear them. I'm so weak!

So. (Read more...)

Seriously - what the he** is a "Nittany"?

Posted by Starbuck on Sat, Sep 26th 2009, 11:29 pm

Just got back from a homebrew blowout (shout out to Marktoberfest 3- 2nd anniversary party commemorating Marktoberfest 1!) where I got to rub the Iowa-Penn State result in the faces of a bunch of Golden Gomers. They were all up in my grill about "almost losing to UNI" and I was like "dude- they're pretty good! Ever hear of Kurt Warner? And besides- it was a wake-up call!" And they were like "Gophers have much more history." and I was like "maybe in the 1930's!" And then like after the game they were all like "wow- maybe Iowa is pretty good." And I was like "so was your mom" and then they like all looked at me and said "dude- so not cool."

So- like thanks for not embarrassing me at a party Iowa, I can to that by myself- Go Hawkeyes!

No Open Flames Please

Posted by Zardoz on Fri, Sep 25th 2009, 2:09 pm

A UK man has constucted a life-size Dalek out of 480,000 matchsticks over a period of two years.

"I spent an hour or maybe two on it at a day because I have a bad back and it is difficult sitting still for such a long time," said Mr Croucher, a retired electroplater. "Besides, it can be a tedious business."

Tedious or not, he's selling it if you're buying. More below:
