Rumor: Universal and Tolkien Estate planning Middle-earth Theme Park. Walk the boring walk yourself!

Naw, I’m just playing. I want to go to Middle-earth. It seems like a pretty awesome place. Just walking around with your bros, hugging and tickling pretty much on the reg. Fall down some hills, finger vaginal symbols and fear its influence. Command ghost armies. Fly giant eagles like way, way too late into the adventure. Let’s get this theme park going.

‘BREAKING BAD’ creator says ending will be “polarizing” and ‘CASABLANCA-ESQUE’

I’m not going to cry during the ending of Breaking Bad. I’m not. I promise. I’m not. I don’t cry just thinking about Lion King. Oh god. No. No I won’t cry.

Watch: Twenty years of Quinty Tarantino’s pop-culture references in five minutes. Reference GET!

Did you know Quentin Tarantino likes pop-culture references? Yup, it is true. I know this may shock you, but I promise. The only things he likes more than pop-culture references are gesticulating like a wild man, making excellent movies, and looking like a slob at his movie premieres. This right here is a collection of his pop-culture references across twenty goddamn years. Such a wunder-world simultaneously wows me, and at the same time makes me feel like a decaying slab of flesh.

There are more internet-connected devices than residents in the United States.

One apocalypse walks out the door, another does the Randall into the room. There are more internet-connected devices in the world than humans. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that once the AI Hive Mine at the center of Google’s secret laboratory awakens, the first thing it’ll do is actualize these devices into a collective of street-surveying Big Brother networks. But we need Facebook, and Doodle Jump. Frankly, I’m still not certain it isn’t worth the consequences.

NASA thinking about mission to capture 550-ton asteroid and drag it into a lunar orbit.

NASA, yeah! I like their seemingly new approach. Let’s think about wonky things! If I’m reading this story correctly, they’re thinking of putting together a giant fondue bowl of blood and guts on the Moon where gladiators in zero-g suits swing blades and particle rifles at one another! Let’s make it so. If I’m reading the story incorrectly, they’re probably thinking about dragging an asteroid. Which is sort of cool too.

Google chairman making private trip to North Korea. Obvious Illuminati meeting.

Google chairman Eric Schmidt (if that is his real name) is making a private trip to North Korea. This can mean only one (obvious) thing. The Illuminati are meeting up at a new base to discuss their global sterilization techniques via water fertilization, and they need to make sure the global search engine and Skynet progenitor is on board. Right? I can’t be misreading this thing, can I?

Tarantino could make third alternate history movie ‘KILLER CROW’ featuring black US soldiers in 1944

There is a chance that Quinto ain’t done remaking history. In a new interview, the Man Who Shot Hitler 3,000 Times has spoken about a potential spin-off from Basterds that would feature a squad of black US soldiers in 1944.

The Dude’s High 5s: 2013 Anticipations

I know the gang Omega did our Year’s Best articles, and 2013 anticipations were one of the categories.  Well I have a busy week, so I’m going to use this High to both expand on that idea, and save time by not having to pick a category to write about.  So here are the things I’m early awaiting for the upcoming year.

P.S. I know I said Star Trek was something I’m eagerly awaiting, and I am, but it didn’t even make the list.

Astronauts in deep space could face accelerated Alzheimer’s disease. Woof ++

I guess I should reconsider packing my bags and stowing away on the top secret Illuminati flights to Mars. Some of our science-wizardros have proclaimed that astronauts ravishing the deep space solar winds may actually be subject to accelerated Alzheimer’s disease. Not cool, man. Not cool!
