Clearly, those of you who haven’t seen the movie won’t get the reference, but those of you who have? How awesome is this?

It took me a moment to connect the dots on the Season’s Greeting tape (which I’m still not sure was in the movie?) but in any case it references the time frame. And in addition to being a cool idea, the tattoo itself is just incredibly well executed, and looks like it’s literally popping off his back in three dimensions.

I dare you to try to find something that tops this.

This is yet another project that just makes me say, “Why?” but now that I’ve been doing this site for a year now, I’m almost starting to get used to stuff like this.

Why would anyone want to make a shot-by-shot remake of that one song from A Goofy Movie? I have no idea, but I do know that it’s awesome, and just might be the best live-action adaptation of something animated I’ve ever seen. Though to be honest, not many other examples are flashing through my head right now.

True story: When I was five my mom made my friend and I walk out of A Goofy Movie because the kid was being disrespectful to his father. I think this is why I review R-rated movies and play M-rated games for a living today.

Have you ever watched a SyFy original movie?  To call them absurd would be an understatement.  Don’t get me wrong - they can often be sort of fun to watch - but drama isn’t really the calling card of the SyFy network.  I wish they’d get their act together and put some decent movies in rotation (sort of like how Comedy Central has done with movies like Office Space and Hot Rod), but it looks like the network instead opts to churn out formulaic original movies where a handsome guy and a hit girl confront some sort of computer-generated beast.

Below, take a look at 10 particularly ridiculous scenes from 10 ridiculous SyFy original movies.

As much as I love Gerard Butler, this movie definitely needs a dose of The Fett. I would also go as there’s probably now at least a 70% chance that Jennifer Aniston either gets frozen in carbonite or fed to a Sarlacc, both of which are situations I would pay $10 to see.

Side note, has anyone ever notice how weird Boba Fett’s cargo pants are? Who has pockets there? Sure from the waist up he’s got wicked Mandalorian armor, but the whole denim baggy pocket thing really isn’t working down below there.

Can a person simply standing there, looking at you, be the most terrifying thing in the world? According to this video? Yes.

A Chinese girl tried to emulate a million different Japanese horror movies by standing in a random place staring at people as they came into a building. The results are way, way more hilarious than you’d expect.

The girl literally does nothing at all but stand there, yet each person who comes in is progressively more terrified than the last, and she eventually scares people so much they fall over. And the last guy? Just…wow. Watch.

I love the way she laughs after each person passes. I bet those Japanese ghosts in the movies probably did the same thing after no one was looking.

There’s something eerily prophetic about the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie The Last Action Hero, as since the time of Arnold, Sly, and to an extent, Bruce, a true, masculine, action hero has yet to emerge in the world of film.  Action movies have changed significantly since the 1980s and early 1990s, especially with the advent of computer generated imagery as a substitute for great stunts, but these movies still call for a charismatic leading male who is both convincing as a bad ass and as someone you want to root for.  A few actors had potential to be the next big action star, but their failure coupled with this current crop of mundane leading males has me convinced that it’s going to be a long time before we see a true action star again.

When I was younger a very common practice I would engage in would be the repeating of awesome lines from a movie I had just seen.  In fact I still do this.  Most of us moviegoers do this.

However, before the advent of Youtube and clip editing from home all you really had was just that one line to repeat yourself.   Nowadays one liners and catch phrases are edited and made into beautiful concoctions of clips and melodies that we can be entertained by.

OK maybe some of them aren’t so beautiful but they are definitely entertaining.  Here are 5 that caught my eye.  Warning NSFW Language.

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

So earlier today, Natty posted a rather excellent gallery of celebrities and their wax figures. I was pretty surprised to not see the Twilight kids there yet, so I’m posting this picture in case the wax sculptors are waiting for some inspiration.

When designing Taylor Lautner, you would think the abs are the most important part, but you’d be wrong. Rather, you need to really capture his alpaca-esque essence to really make it a realistic depiction of the actor. The short nose, the furrowed brow, it’s all right there, just waiting to be turned into wax!

Also, in researching this post, I found out that alpacas and llamas are totally different. Who knew?

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.
