‘WRECK-IT RALPH’ TRAILER: Nostalgia-powered faux-throwback.
One of the neatest things about Wreck-It Ralph is that it has absolutely no claim on our childhood. Despite that, it is working its best to worm its way into our nostalgia. This latest trailer keeps up that movement, driving its sugary stake into our childhood, a place it never came from.
iPHONE 5 ANNOUNCED, MAY/MAY NOT CURE CANCER OR STOP UNIVERSAL ENTROPY.
Seems redundant to even mention it, since every site in the world has covered both its announcement and its specs. However, there is a new iPhone! My dong drips at the idea of purchasing one.
Cosplay: CAITLIN FAIRCHILD from ‘GEN 13’ is the source of my teenage feelings.
I wish I could successfully elaborate on how many times a rogue right hand of mine touched my crotch over Caitlin Fairchild when I was a teenager. God bless this throwback. Hit the jump for the glory.
MIKE from ‘BREAKING BAD’ playing Ben’s dad on ‘PARKS AND REC.’ Hell yes.
Pop culture convergence of enormous boner magnitude! Mike from Breaking Bad is going to be all up in Parks and Rec. We haven’t earned such a momentous mash-up, but we’ll take it.
The Dude’s High 5s: TV Criminals
Last week I covered TV cops. This week we’ll hit the second part of the equation. The Crooks. These are the guys that break the law, yet in some odd way, we root for them.

So here we go. My top TV criminals.
Rumor: ‘INDEPENDENCE DAY’ SEQUELS tots have titles. Welcome to 1996!
This has to be weird. Will Smith is probably going to be in a sequel to ID4. But, being a member of Scientology, isn’t the dude going to be going to arms with pretty much his brethren? His intergalactic soul mates? I could be wrong. I’m probably wrong. I’d just like to see a sequel where he switches sides, and rolls deep with the aliens.
JUPITER does us a solid, saves us from potential DEVASTATING impact.
If you’re a space geek like me, then you know that Jupiter is essentially Earth’s bulwark. It saves us from a fair amount of shit that comes floating through the shooting gallery that is our solar system. Recently the Enormous Bastard may have extended this solid yet again.
LARRY FLYNT offering $1 MILLI bounty for Romney tax info.
Info warriors! To arms. Larry Flynt is willing to give you a pretty penny if you can scavenge out Mitty Romney’s tax information.
JOSS WHEDON spits about ‘AVENGERS 2’ calling it “complex and difficult” and other jazz.
After Avengers, just let Joss Whedon do whatever the fuck he wants. Let him. He has earned it. He turned your skeleton of a script into the best comic book movie of the past few years. Now he should be given the keys and told to have the car home by…whenever the second movie is due out.
