Woot always has pretty good shirts for its daily sales, but I saw this one this week that really stood out. It combines two of my favorite films that you would think have no business crossing one another, Memento and Finding Nemo.

But Dory’s memory problems echo Leonard’s plight, and this is a fantastic image. I think it works more as a comedic single panel than an actual shirt I’d wear places, but that’s just me. Unfortunately since these are daily deals, you can’t buy it any more, but check out other stuff from the designer here.

Japanese folklore has progressed past tales of daring samurai and into some less..traditional stories. A woman in a metal suit fighting aliens, a robot boy with a robot dog, a hero of time. But what would happen if each of these stories used the more traditional art style of their folklore predecessors?

You’d get a series of prints like these from illustrator Jed Henry. He’s taken Samus, Mega Man and Link and given them the “Japanese woodblock” treatment, and I have to say the end result is pretty killer. Check out the full series below. Who do you think he should do next? Mario seems too obvious. I’ll go with Street Fighter. Continue Reading »

Being an actor is a dangerous job, and rather than risk their own life and limb on set, they have people to do that for them. Stunt people are probably the most underappreciated folks in movies, as they get little glory despite taking enormous risks for our amusement.

I do not know who assembled this gallery originally, but these pictures were sent to me and it’s a really neat selection. It’s a collection of celebrities and their stunt doubles, and many are as trippy as the one you see above.

For every Zoe Bell who gets their moment to shine in a film, there are countless more whose faces are never seen. Check them out below. Continue Reading »

We don’t often have dopplegangers on this website but I must admit this one was pretty awesome.   Considering the kind of “old school” icon the Sam Adams logo is, it’s a little weird that a present day person would have such an accurate look. I can only assume he dresses like Sam Adams for every single Halloween party he goes to.

If not, that’s a colossal mistake.  Just another quick word of advice for this guy.   Get a haircut dude.

The last thing I would ever consider this site to be is a celebrity site.  However, given that we love our movies, television, and entertainment, celebrities do technically fall under that category.  And that’s why I just had to post these pictures.   I mean have you ever been in horrible lighting in some weird bathroom?  We all have.   Well imagine your face looked like that all the time.

Celebrities:  they’re just like us!   And just like us normal people, if you take a really close up shot of them, they’re going to look super weird and super scary.   I think you guys are going to like these pics.

Personally I thought Mick Jagger’s was the scariest.  Who do you think was?  Pictures after the jump

Between my review and Dave’s post, this is turning into Diablo 3 day here on Unreality. And I can’t say I can complain about that.

Nor can I pass up this combination of Game of Thrones and Diablo, which further illustrates the point I’ve made about how the Auction House feels like cheating, even if it isn’t. It’s a lot more satisfying to get your own gear from kills (the paying the iron price) rather than buying it outright from someone else who did the hard work (the gold price). That said, the AH is now an inherent part of the game, and is almost necessary to progress in later difficulties unless you want to spend a few extra hundred hours hoping that the gear you find surpasses your own.

It’s just a…strange system, and I’m not sure how I feel about it.

I’m not a die-hard Community fanboy like many others who are constantly comparing its imminent demise to the death of Arrested Development (but it keeps being saved from that fate), but there are a few select episodes of the show that are some of the best 20 minute comedy spots that have ever appeared on television.

Paintball (the first one) is an obvious choice, but last week’s “Digital Estate Planning” was simply fantastic. Nearly the entire episode was filmed like 8-bit video game. What other show could possibly pull something like that off?

And of course, like any good Community episode, there were Easter Eggs. Here’s something a quick-eyed fan caught as Abed was scrolling through the dialogue options of a local village maiden. Freaking. Awesome.

Why the hell did they fire Dan Harmon again? How does that make ANY sort of sense?

This is an incredibly funny way to look at some of the best video games you’ve played in years past.   Imagine for a second that all the game you used to love as a kid were as easy as you sometimes wished they would be.   Well imagine them as being easier than that.   Imagine them being so easy that it’s comical.

See how funny these iconic video games would be if their difficulty level could be switched to an extra-easy mode.  With a little help from photoshop the pictures to follow will show you just that.

Check out the fun after the jump….

Often the overlooked brother, Luigi is sick and tired of being player two. This piece of art from Garrenh shows what it might look like if he got a little more intense, and a little less subservient to his brother.

The backstory behind this painting is actually pretty hilarious. I’ll let the author explain:

“My friend once had a dream in which there was a gigantic conspiracy going on involving shoe smuggling, and as he unraveled it, it turned out that Luigi was behind the whole diabolical plan. The shoe smuggling just turned out to be a diversion so that nobody would notice that Luigi had trapped his brother Mario in an alternate universe, and the cops were sniffing around.

So I imagined the moment you are shoved into a dark room to meet the boss, then all you see is the spark and glow of a match as Luigi himself lights a cigarette and glares death at you, and the room seems to get colder…”

His hand is kind of small.

Want your Game of Thrones a little more literal? Then how about making the show into an actual playing card deck? It’s a very cool concept, and one executed very well by Jim Tuckwell. He’s taken some iconic GoT characters and given them their own face cards as you can see above and below.

Unfortunately no, there are not 52 cards you can sift through covering every major and minor character, but there are two more to be seen that have Tyrion as the Jack of Diamonds and Daeneyrs as the Queen of Clubs. I would have said hearts, but that’s just me. Theon Greyjoy can be the two of spades for being a turd.

Check out the rest of the cards below, and more of Tuckwell’s work on his blog. Continue Reading »
