I’m not a big Team Fortress guy myself, but I’ve browsed Reddit enough to be familiar with all the characters. Though now that I own a desktop and might actually be able to run it, I could see myself giving it a shot.

Anyway, I came across this fantastic piece of work, re-imagining the TF2 crew as pirates, which actually works surprisingly well. You’ll want to blow it up to see all the detail.

The Final Countdown: Movie Flaws Explained in Deleted Scenes, Bad Costumes and a Hobo with a Shotgun

Published by Paul Tassi under Final Countdown

Go here to see movie flaws explained in deleted scenes.

A ton of movies have plot holes in them, even good ones, but sometimes it’s not the film’s fault. They tried to include an explanation for something, but it got cut off for some editing reasons, and they were forced to relegate it to the deleted scenes. Click above to see how LOTR, Terminator, Happy Gilmore and more explain away their missing pieces.

Unreality’s Facebook page thinks Boromir was a dick anyway.

Meet SNL’s New Obama, Jay Pharoah

Published by Paul Tassi under Television,Videos

This is Jay Pharoah, reported to be the latest recruit for SNL, and more importantly, their new Barack Obama.

I guess they got tired of putting Fred Armisten in blackface, and figured there were probably enough black comedians out there who could do the job.

His Obama impression is rather good, and it starts at 6:15 in the clip above. But he’s not being recruited just for that, he’s also got an entire stable of impressions of both black and white actors and musicians alike. Though I kind of doubt they’ll be having him play Owen Wilson on the show any time soon. He’s clearly too tall.

How Hard is it to Be Kristen Stewart?

Published by Paul Tassi under Images,Movies

How unique is Kristen Stewart? Well, average  enough that Jane Plainface here can perfectly mimic her at your local gas station. All she needs to do is get her lip-biting and eye-rolling down, and she’ll be able to sneak onset and start making out with Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner without detection.

Fun fact: Kristen Stewart is totally the boy-ish kid from Panic Room. Go back and watch it again. Err, actually don’t, that movie is horrible. I can’t believe it’s Fincher.

Stewart is a prostitute adopted by James Gandolfini in some new movie, which will surely bring many more opportunities for lip-biting. The only thing I like about this girl is how much she openly despises Twilight and her fans. Props for that.

A Collection of Fictional Business Cards

Published by Paul Tassi under Images,Movies,Television

This is a pretty cool art project from Fro Design Co. It’s a series of fictional business cards based around TV shows and movies you all know. You can buy the entire thing as a print over at the Fro site, but first hit the jump so see what cards they have to offer.

I’m very impressed that I got nearly all of them without even trying. The only ones I’m hung up on are Red Apple Cigarettes and InGen, as I don’t quite get the reference. I understand Sienar Fleet Systems is supposed to be something Star Wars related, but I’m missing exactly where they got that from.

Check out the other companies below:

Nine Examples of Prominent Actors and Actresses Unexpectedly and Quickly Killed Off in Movies

Published by Madison under Lists,Movies

There are plenty of scenes in movies where a character is killed seemingly out of nowhere, but it’s not too often when one of those characters is played by a prominent actor or actress and the death comes early in the movie.  It can be jarring and unnerving to say the least, but it also makes that death particularly memorable.  After all, when a prominent actor or actress is seen early on in a movie and some or all the marketing for that movie indicates that said actors and actresses will be a major part of the story, we expect them to live to at least the halfway point.  You can check out nine examples of prominent actors and actresses being killed off unexpectedly and swiftly after the jump.

I really shouldn’t have to write this, but there will be major spoilers.

Disney Channel’s Idiocy Knows No Bounds

Published by Paul Tassi under Television,Videos

If you’re my age or close to it, you remember watching Disney cartoon reruns alongside Looney Toons a while ago. Sure, some of them might have been years, even decades old at the time, but physical comedy is quite timeless, so we were able to enjoy them in our youth all the same.

Well apparently the same is not true for our newest generation of kids, who are, judging by this video, all morons who even must have something as simple as “bowl hits duck in face” rewound and thoroughly explained to them two or three times.

BLAM! is a new short segment on Disney Channel (they don’t have commercials, other than commercials for other Disney related things), and it takes a classic Mickey and Friends cartoon and gives it a completely unnecessary voiceover narration, explaining to idiot children exactly what is going on.

I weep for our future.

Published by Nattyb under Images

Click for full size

This has got to be one of the cooler cosplayers I’ve seen.  I mean talk about putting in effort.  Not only is this an excellent stormtrooper get up but we’re talking precision here folks.  Hell he got the Samurai thing down cold with those platform shoes no?

When you’re talking crossover this would be my poster example.   But there are others out there who have taken a liking to crossing over with the stormtrooper outfit.

Check out some more storm trooper cross overs after the jump

An Awesome Gallery of Hermetic Art by Alex Andreev

Published by Nattyb under Images

I’m not really how to describe what Hermetic art is.  It’s a concept that Alex Andreev has created and all I know is that it’s incredibly awesome looking.   From what I understand Alex first draws in pencil and ink.  He then uses Corel Painter and Adobe Photoshop to create these other “worldly” type pictures.

Hermetic itself means “The Science or art of Divine Works.”  I’m not 100% sure what is divine about these works but there is this calming presence about them.  And when you put things in mid air like that it could be considered “divine” I suppose.

All I know is that this work is very cool and worthy of being on this site so enjoy the gallery…..
