You see them every week selling paper (and now printers!), but the cast of The Office does much more than that. I’ve assembled this collection of videos to show what they do outside of Dunder Mifflin, and I think I managed to grab a video of every single recurring member currently on the show.

Some are videos of them before they hit it big, some after. Some are on different shows, some are in movies, some are doing stand-up. I think you’ll be surprised to learn how many of the actors actually have the same names as their characters in real life. Especially Creed, who I now know is literally playing himself on the show.

Check out the video collection below:

This is mainly for people in my generation, who had crushes on girls before we really even understood what crushes were. Most of these shows are in the early to mid nineties, and even though the girls may not have been particularly hot at the time, we still loved them.

Well now it’s fifteen or twenty years later, so I decided to go back and see how everyone progressed over the years. The results? Pretty spectacular actually, and half these girls you won’t even recognize. Do you even know who that lead picture is? No one looked very good in the nineties, though I suppose someday people will be saying that about us today.

Check out the gallery below, and let me know if I missed your favorite crush.

Some of you might remember in a galaxy far far away that select episodes from all Star Trek series were released in box sets organized around certain themes or characters, such as Q, the Borg, Time Travel, and Klingons.  I hope that most of you enjoyed these wonderful collections of weirdness.

But alas, perhaps these boxsets were on to something.  Perhaps there’s room for many more themes and characters to dedicate these boxsets to.  And from the looks of it, many fans have spoken.

The folks at Something Awful asked it’s base of photoshop freaks to come up with some alternative ideas for these boxsets and I’ve gathered the best 15 I could find.

Enjoy

Alright look, don’t yell at me, I’m not being sexist. A few weeks ago, I wrote this post, about the strangest looking actors in Hollywood, and now I’m doing a follow-up with actresses . I’m fair and balanced just like Fox News.

In any case, these are a collection of actress I just find “strange” looking.  Now, that’s not to say that many of them aren’t hot, as most actresses are to some degree, but there’s just something about them that’s almost…unreal, if you’ll pardon the reference. I think you’ll see what I mean as you look through the gallery.

As always, this list probably isn’t definitive, so feel free to shout out any you think I’ve missed.

Normally, when I write a “Where Are They Now?” post, I take a look at what’s happened to the major cast members of movies I’ve grown up with.  For this post, though, I decided instead to take a look at the child actors that starred in classic horror films.  You might think that many of them go on to become screwed up, but you could probably say that about child actors in general.  Fortunately, many child actors from horror films - no matter how ridiculous or traumatizing for a child their roles may have been - have gone on to enjoy successful careers both in acting and through the pursuit of other interests.  Below, check out what happened to eight of the most memorable child actors from classic horror movies.

So it used to be a I wrote a lot of Halo 3 posts on here, but as my interests have changed, so do the posts I write for the site. So we’re leaving alien carbines and plasma ‘nades behind, and we’re now in the gritty reality of Modern Warfare 2.

I do maintain that MW2 doesn’t have quite the same “crazy shit” factor that Halo 3 does, and after you view this post of the best kills I could find in the game,  compare it to this old post, which features some truly bonkers death in Halo.

I also must protest MW2’s inability to save killcams, or its lack of replay in general. For example, when I execute a particularly awesome kill, or a crazy kill happens to me, I would like the ability to quickly press a button  to save that killcam, and then we would see a lot more crazy deaths than what I’ve listed here. As it stands, out of the 149 deaths that populate a given game, only the very last one is ever able to be seen be all parties. That, Infinity Ward, is lame.

Check out the videos below, and suggest your own if you think you’ve found better.

It doesn’t appear that movies about racism exist as much as they used to.  In fact many movies today have more of a “racial undertone” type of approach.  And sometimes it doesn’t even take the form of race against race.  It can be species versus other species.  Take Avatar for example.  Many people argue that Avatar has some racism in it (which I totally agree with).

And overall,while the topic of racism is still somewhat popular in movies and television that doesn’t mean it’s always successful.  My point being, some movies put in racism just to get an effect.  Whereas others base their entire movies around racism.

The following are ten movies where racism is a central theme and I think the movies used it quite well.

So an ongoing debate in our Lost episode review comment section has to do with whether or not the “parallel universe” aspect of the show is a waste of time. I’m of the opinion that yes, I think it’s going to be relevant, somehow, but it’s taking up too much time in the final season with pretty useless subplots that don’t get us anywhere.

I was all set to write an impassioned defense of this theory, and then I saw someone more eloquent than myself did it for me. Meredith Woerner over at io9 has a post title “Five Reasons Lost’s Parallel Universe is a Waste of Time,” and though I usually feature columns from other other sites, I’m going to point you over there as it’s a worthwhile read, and sums up most of my thoughts on the matter.

Here’s a quick excerpt that ties into the picture above:

“Sure, we were all happy to see Martin Keamy’s shit-eating smile again, but what was the point? Same goes for Rose popping up at Hurley’s temp agency. I think we all went, “Hey, that’s cool,” but the enjoyment from these winky little fan nods lasts about as long as our laughter at a cat fighting to get out of a box on Youtube.

Plus, they cheapen some of the past awesomeness these characters went through. Let’s not forget Keamy MURDERED Ben’s daughter in a pivotal, “holy shit, Lost is awesome” moment. Watching him ask Sayid if he wants eggs and then taking a bullet to the chest isn’t rewarding, nor is it really as justified as watching the smoke monster having his way with him after he’s murdered Alex. What is the point? Sure, this is cool, but how about instead of making us some eggs, you scramble up a few answers? There’s no reason why the parallel universe can’t be a question-answering aid.”

True, true. Read the rest of the post here.

We’ve covered movie gunfights and fictional weapons here at Unreality, but we’ve never really given any love to knives.  Knives obviously aren’t as effective as guns, and maybe that’s the reason why wielding a knife as one’s weapon of choice is so bad ass.  There are plenty of knife fights and stabbings in movies, but there aren’t too many characters that carry a knife regularly.

For the purposes of this list, I’m considering only guys who carry some sort of a knife - so you won’t find, say, Mr. Blonde and his razor in Reservoir Dogs.  Watch some memorable knife-wielders in action below.

I’ve seen pictures of faces of actors matched up with the animated characters they voice, but it’s MUCH more entertaining to see it in real time. That’s why I’ve assembled this collection of videos which show real life people voicing your favorite animated characters from TV and video games.

My personal favs are Pikachu and Mario, but nothing beats hearing Mark Hamill do his crazy Joker voice in real life. Check out the video collection below, and if you think I missed any good ones, feel free to let me know.
