THE GANG OMEGA’S PICKS OF 2012: Sneaky Pete – An Idiot Abroad
2012 was an interesting year for me personally. As many of you know, I spent a good portion of the year traveling, not only across the country, but across the world. At times OL was my lone tether to the bindings of our magnificently grotesque, yet powerfully addicting culture. That said, I had a profound experience outside of the bubble, much of which I have not taken the time to share, until now.

THE GANG OMEGA’S PICKS OF 2012: R.C.’s Worst Apocalypse Ever Edition
Remember me? No? Okay. I really don’t have a good excuse for my extended absence other than I have the attention span of a gnat.
Anyway, I was at work the other day, doing my thang, when one of my coworkers commented on the fact that the world was going to end the following Friday. Laughing, I told him to shut the fuck up, because the world was supposed to end in December. He gave me a look, one of those ‘you are too stupid to live’ looks, and said, “It is December, R.C.”
When the serious fuck did that happen.
But then the apocalypse didn’t happen and now I have all these awesome end of the world-related one-liners that will go forever unused. Such a shame.
Senate approves warrantless phone tapping for five more years. I see.
Looks like I’m going to have to keep my raging conversations about latex-bound furry scat porn confined to letters with my pen-pet pals. Damn, I was really hoping soon I’d get to hear their breathless inner workings on a phone, but I totally can’t do that with the man listening! Son of a bitch.
Alison Brie x CAPTAIN AMERICA = Glory Be.
Part of me is all “of course she has to have a bare mid drift”, the other part of me is too titillated to care. Alison Brie as Captain America is the photoshop glory.
Watch: Super Mario Bros. 1-1 recreated in ‘MINECRAFT.’ Oh, that game.
I don’t get you, Minecraft. But I want to. Oh, I so do. I don’t get how someone created Super Mario Bros. 1-1 within your walls, but that doesn’t matter. It is still damn impressive.
Kevin Smith hoping to get out ‘CLERKS 3’ for original film’s 20th anniversary. I’m f**king old.
Goddamn! I really hate the fact that Clerks is creeping up on its 20th anniversary. I suppose there will be few more appropriate ways to celebrate my blase and unimpressive existence that Clerks has helped shape so greatly than by catching the epic conclusion to the franchise.
THE GANG OMEGA’S PICKS OF 2012: PATRICK COOPER’S Wild Ride.
Caff: Okay, so Patrick didn’t write an introduction either. P-Rock is a wildly awesome writer and great friend, who spent this year dominating both the blogosphere and print world. He was kind enough to come back to the OL hood for the besties. Check out his Top 10 Films of 2012 over at Mishka while you’re indulging in his righteousness.
‘THE PLACE BEYOND THE PINES’ Trailer: Gosling is all Metallica baby!
I have the sneaking suspicion this movie is going to be good. Gosling, Derek Cianfrance (director of Blue Valentine), Metallica t-shirts. Unfortunately, this trailer does nothing for me. Lock, stock, and generic dramatic barrels. Still though, a nice reminder that the film exists. I’ll be seeing it, regardless of this trailer.
New ‘PACIFIC RIM’ photo features Elba, Kikuchi, and a war room.
Hey! Do you want an inconsequential picture of the promising 2013 jam, Pacific Rim? Then you’re in the right location, you fucks. My sheer excitement for this film outweighs the insubstantial nonsense of it all.
There’s a simulated Mars colony happening in Utah. Lucky Martian devils!
Out in the vast wilderness of Utah, there is a Mars colony afoot! I have no idea what Utah actually looks like, but from the pictures it seems like endless rolling red sand and Martian colonies. Okay, so I haven’t looked at the pictures either. Who the fuck cares. What does matter is that there is a legitimately simulated Mars colony, and we aren’t there.
