IDW Wants You To Trade-In ‘Twilight’ For ’30 Days of Night. Do It!
IDW has a most righteous promotion going on this weekend at Comic-Con. They’re encouraging people to trade-in Twilight in exchange for their own copy of 30 Days of Night. The promotion is called Sparkles For Blood. I love this.

‘The Avengers’ Teaser Trailer Leaks.
Bootlegging is bad and awful and also the reason I’ve been able to see the teaser trailers for The Dark Knight Rises and The Avengers early. If you’re like me and can’t wait, hit the jump for a bootleg capture.
It’s dope.
I promise.
Joe Johnston Wants To Make A Boba Fett Movie.
It’ll never happen, but it’s worth imagining anyways. While promoting Captain America: The First Avenger, director Joe Johnston mentioned off the cuff that he’d like to make a Boba Fett flick. And then it was like a thousand geeks orgasmed at once.
THIS WEEK ON True Blood: I’m Alive and on Fire
When we last left True Blood, Eric was a brainless twink dream, Jason was getting raped by a pack of werepanthers, Sookie was probably doing something, and Bill was sentencing dudes to death in-between knocking boots with that lawyer. Whatever could come next! Let’s find out, shall we?
BioWare Reveals New ‘Mass Effect 3’ Character, James Vega. Super BroDude Woah.
Mass James Vega, a new character to the Mass Effect franchise. Vega is known around the galactic community for excessive amounts of hair product, the smell of whiskey and pussy on his breath, and his overall asstastic character design. BioWare should have just named him “Gears of War Guy” or my preferred name “Super BroDude”.
Hit the jump for the entire image.
In The DC Relaunch, Superman Is A Single, Flightless Orphan. Frown!
It seems that DC is going all out in their shaking up of Superman’s mythos for the DC Relaunch. The Clark Kent we’re getting in September is going to be markedly different than the one we get right now. Kent is going to be an orphan twice-over who initially can’t fly, and isn’t tapping any Lane booty. Dude’s sufferin’.
Also interesting is that the Superman titles will be taking place in different points in time.
Here’s The Official Release Of The Teaser For ‘The Dark Knight Rises’.
When I went to see Harry Potter, I thought that I was just as excited to see the trailer for TDKR. Some sort of conspiring Universal force broke the fucking projector, and the only preview I saw was Sherlock Holmes. So here’s my chance, and yours too! to catch an official copy of the trailer.
Face of a Franchise: Izzza Mario!
[face of a franchise presents two individuals that’ve fulfilled the same role. your task — choose the better of the two and defend your choice in the rancor pit that is the comments section]
One of the most celebrated rites of passage in the Nerd Realm is engaging in the Greatest Hero debate. Would Luke Skywalker’s Jedi powers confound John McClane, or would he manage to best Tattooine’s favorite farmboy even after getting an arm chopped off? How fast can Neo read universal code if Professor X is mind-molesting him? Can Wolverine’s healing factor work quickly enough to thwart off the three-count after Hogan delivers the atomic leg drop?
Fun questions to ask, no doubt. But only in a purely academic sense. Because, if you really think about it, everyone knows who our generation’s greatest hero is.
Super Mario.
I can’t even begin to think of a hero that’s done more than Mario. Every few years he hunts down a dinosaur, beats the shit out of him, and then brings his girlfriend home to bang her out. Oh, and by the way, she’s a princess – so you know she’s packing a high-quality rump-roast. When he’s not out hunting prehistoric menaces, Mario finds enjoyment in high-octane deathraces. He gets his broke-ass brother jobs. Oh, and the muthafuggah’s got a PhD.
With such crazy credentials, it stands to reason that it takes a real boss to portray Mario. Luckily for us, we’ve been graced with performances by two absolute masters. The only problem lies in determining who did the better job.
Friday Brew Review – iniquity (Imperial Black Ale)
It’s my pleasure to inform the faithful OL readership that the FRIDAY BREW REVIEW has been generating a lot more traffic lately. Some of these new visitors may be arriving via word-of-mouth, the pleasant words you share about a weekly-drunkard’s semi-coherent review acting as safe passage. Others are being transported here by means of Internetdimensional-portals, such as that provided by the (fabulous) Reddit beer community. And still others, well, I suspect they’re here because it was the closest place they could find after escaping that hitchhiker who promised a blowjob but offered only a knife-wound. How rude.
No matter how you’ve arrived – welcome.
Before we go any further, baby, allow me to offer a warning to the uninitiated: what follows is certainly a beer review. But the Friday Brew Review is also part diatribe, short story, philosophical meandering, science fiction journey, and drunken affirmation.
Please proceed without caution.
New Cast Poster For ‘Captain America: The First Avenger’. It Looms! It Looms.
With only a week left until super soldier eerily Aryan looking yet fighting Nazis wunderchild Steve Rogers debuts on the big screen, there’s a new cast poster to chew on to kill the time. Chew it! Chew it up. Swine.
