Hubble Image Of A Black Hole TEARING Apart A Star. So Good.

That vague picture above is a poor rendition of something that is probably beyond the comprehension of our fat simian grey matter. It’s a black hole literally tearing apart a star.

Face of a Franchise: SNL Fat-Guy
[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]
In my humble opinion, Saturday Night Live has had two periods that can both accurately described as classic – the late `70s and the early `90s. Both of these eras stand out because their respective casts were absolutely stacked, filled to the brim with a wealth of members whose individuals talents rocked but whose combined efforts fucking murdered. I mean that in a good way. And yet, even with such commendable collaboration, both casts had a fan-favorite.
From 1975 to 1979, John Belushi explored comedic territories on SNL that have barely been ventured into since. Belushi was the epitome of what it meant to push sketch comedy to the limit. Sure, he could do impressions and characters, but he’d also go on emphatic tirades and put his body on the line in the name of his art. Before his time on Spaceship Earth was up, he’d immortalize himself not only as an original SNL cast member, but also as the star of Animal House and one half of the Blues Brothers.
However, Generation X had their very own SNL fat-guy. Perhaps even more winsome as his predecessor, Chris Farley was beamed into the homes of millions every week. Not only did he make us gut-bust, but he also inspired us to feel good. Yelling into the camera, falling through tables, warming our hearts with a smile, Farley possessed that intangible comedy attribute. While he undoubtedly stole the show with features such as Tommy Boy and Black Sheep, the man proved his worth as a supporting player with Billy Madison and Dirty Work.
I know this week’s dilemma is a little different. And truthfully, I don’t think I can decide. So it’s up to you.
Who’s better – John Belushi or Chris Farley?
China Bans Time-Travel Movies and TV. Amazing.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth: time travel is real. It has to be. It is the only reason I can think of that China would pull off what they did recently. Motherfuckers banned time-travel movies and television.

Oh hell yeah! The Mass Effect-related Dope Train continues chugging along today.

Which means of course, there’s going to be a goddamn blowout in the issue. It promises to have “12 pages of exclusive info, screens, and art that no Mass Effect fan should miss.”
You bet your fucking ass I won’t.

Rumor | Duncan Jones’ For ‘The Wolverine’?
Moon was fucking phenomenal. Source Code was good, fun, solid sci-fi. Duncan Jones is a current favorite of mine. Now he could be doing ‘The Wolverine’?
‘The Hobbit’ Shooting With James Cameron Future Technology.
A couple of months ago James Cameron was blabbering with his babbling lips about the future of movie technology lying in shooting at 48fps. I dismissed Cameron’s blathering because he’s in that rarefied league of blowhards like George Lucas who just gab and spew bullshit. At the time, “shooting in 48fps” translated to “creating 3D that didn’t look like strobing, dark, bullshit.”
But Peter Jackson is now shooting ‘The Hobbit’ with these cameras, so I’m sort of paying attention.
‘Mass Effect’ Getting Anime In 2012. Pants = Lightspeed!
I’m a total slut for anything Mass Effect. I love me the franchise, in fact it may be my current favorite. I’m doing shit I swore I would never fucking do with a video game series: read the novels and the comic books. Condemn me! So fuck yeah, I’m stoked at the announcement that there’s going to be a Mass Effect anime.
Fuck yeah!
