Enlarge. | Via.
We’re all celebrating Neptune’s first birthday here on Earth. You know, since we discovered it. We have that habit, us humans. Deciding that when we find something that’s existed that it’s some sort of achievement. Anyways, to celebrate Neptune’s first birf-day, Hubble dropped some pictures to celebrate.
ModernWarfare3.com Redirects To Official Battlefield 3 Website. Amazing.

Activision and EA are going at one another big this winter. Battlefield 3 is getting released around the same time as Modern Warfare 3, in a direct challenge of CoD’s sales dominance. Some interesting side-battle cropped up this week. You see, ModernWarfare3.com now redirects the surfer to the official Battlefield 3 website.
Corporate slap fight!
Watch Kids Command A ‘Star Wars’ Battle On Giant Touch Screen. Dorkgasm.
For two years, Arthur Nishimoto has been working on an enormous video game project. The project dreamed up by the University of Illinois at Chicago graduate student is a game that looks a lot like controlling the glorious destruction of a Battlestar or Star Wars battle on a friggin’ enormous multi-touch surface. So swoon.
It’s goddamn gorgeous.

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Teaser Poster Is Here. Oh Yes.

Last night I made the mistake of rolling into bed around 10:30. I don’t know when I became such an old bastard, but I need my sleep. When I awoke today and browsed the interwebz in traffic, I discovered to my horror that whilst I slept there was an official teaser poster for The Dark Knight Rises released.
You’ve already seen it a thousand times, but here it is anyways.
THIS WEEK ON True Blood: If You Love Me, Why Am I Dyin’?

Alright, this is what I’m talking about. I dug last night’s True Blood more than I had any episode in recent memory. On a relative scale, nothing really happened. Everything was par the True Blood course. Couples fought. Vampires fucked. Melodrama was as melodrama is. However by slowing down the episode and giving characters time to interact on a personal level, the show hit with a funny, charming episode.
Today Is The First Anniversary Of Discovering Neptune! In Neptune Years.

Happy birthday! Or something. Today marks the first anniversary of us intrepid human beings discovering Neptune. First anniversary…in Neptune years.
Monday Morning Commute: Scream Sayonara!
Ahoy! Welcome to the MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE – this is the spot where I share the bits of entertainment detritus that I’ll be rolling in over the course of the next few days! Sometimes it’s neat and tidy. Other times, it’s gross and ewh. In either case, after you stomp through my mind-muck, it’s your duty to hit up the comments section and detail what you’ll be up to.
More ‘Captain America: The First Avenger’ Hi-Res Pictures? Sure!

…because I’m really excited about Captain America: The First Avenger. Hoping that it’s going to be the film to deliver me something fucking memorable this summer. Crunchy popcorn style memorable. Empty fun memorable. I promise that previous sentence wasn’t a contradiction.

‘Fear Itself’ Continues Ripping Off ‘Blackest Night’ With The Mighty.

I acknowledge that all comic book storylines are a bit incestuous. There’s only so many world-beaters you can tackle and events you can make the best of before everything stars to bleed together. However if you’re one of those people (hi!) who feels like Fear Itself is so very Blackest Night, you’re going to find this amazing. Introducing The Mighty, from the pages of Fear Itself.
Cliffy B Says ‘Wii U’ Haters Talk Shiz, Will Buy It Anyways.

Dude Huge has been spoutin’ off lately, and I’m all for it. The new object he’s aiming his Lancer at? Nintendo haters. Cliffy B hast seen the Wii U, and claims that those running their mouths about it are full of shit. They’ll be snagging it anyways.
