This isn’t our first tango with the terrifying idea of bringing cartoon characters to life, but it is undoubtedly the scariest.

While those were mere pictures, what we have here are two full size busts of Beavis and Butthead crafted by professional makeup artist Kevin Kirkpatrick. I don’t know if this is for some new skit MTV is doing, or  just for the hell of it, but in either case, I think these things should be burned before they come to life and start murdering people.

But serious, awesome job.

Today’s featured artist is the talented Saki Michan, though I don’t know if I spaced out those words correctly. He (or she?) is a talented digital painter with a passion for the same sorts of games and movies that many of us have.

They have a whole series of character art that’s really worth checking out. This is probably one of the best artistic renderings of Link I’ve ever seen, but in the rest of the gallery are equally impressive versions of Princess Mononoke, Dante, Chun-Li, Aragorn and many more.

Check them all out  below:

Behold, the best crossover of the year. Artist Aviv Or has taken the cast of Community, and cast them as various X-Men heroes and villains, and I have to say, the selections are spot-on.

Community loves doing themed episodes, and I’m tempted to tweet this to the cast to give them a few ideas. At the very least, they could all have Halloween episodes for next season (which hopefully is going to exist).

Dean as Emma Frost? I can’t stop laughing.

Check out each individual character below:

It’s been a great year for discovering new television shows, and I mainly have the Brits to thank for that. I discovered teenage superhero comedy, Misfits, which I found to be distastefully delightful. I’m working my way through six seasons of Doctor Who, which is really starting to grow on me. But finally, I’ve discovered yet another British show that is far and away the best new program I’ve seen out of any country in the last few years.

A modern day reboot of Sherlock Holmes sounds like a bit of a boring venture, as I hate procedurals with a passion. I can’t stand shows like CSI or Law and Order that have one mystery per forty minute episode, and everyone stands around looking at hair fibers until they can prove one of the four people they interviewed is guilty.

It’s beyond formulaic, and generally painfully dull. I was worried that perhaps the Brits were looking to us Americans for a change, and would set this new Sherlock to be clever detective that solved a mystery an hour and that would be that.

I know I’m pretty devoted to movies and TV shows, but this is taking things to a new level entirely.

This fan happens to have pretty much all the same interests as I do, but has gone one step beyond, crafting bits of movie and TV memorabilia for a collection that is most impressive. It’s fun to search through this seemingly random pile and find items you recognize. I can’t figure out a few, but the vast majority are instantly identifiable.

I can’t place the child molester poster or the missing Casey Tatum one either. And when was there a free crack giveaway?

Another year, another time when I watched exactly zero seconds of the Golden Globes, but I know some people are curious to see who won what.

The award show covers both movies AND television, so you have the potential to get doubly pissed when your favorites don’t win things.

Surprises? For me, it was how weak the Best Dramatic Motion Picture category was, though I suppose I really should see The Descendants now. Also, the fact that Homeland and Claire Danes both won awards for Best Show and Best Actress in the drama category for TV. Granted, I still have to watch the last three episodes of the season, but I thought what started off promising got derailed by an increasingly crazy plotline that was too far fetched to make sense, and I truly hate Claire Danes’ character on that show. In fact I hate most of the characters. And now I hate it further because it beat out Game of Thrones.

Anyway, check out the full list below, and now prepare yourself for the REAL awards, the Oscars, coming up in a month or so.

Alright, half of these are from TV shows, but that would have messed up my title alliteration.

Artist Kevin Henry has created this rather cool series of minimalist posters that focus on the most iconic vehicles in film and television history, along with the year in which the movie came out. Or when the car was made, not sure which.

I think he’s covered most of the ones you’d think of. I would include the Bullit Mustang, Gone in 60 Second’s Eleanor and  perhaps the Fast and Furious Supra. I loved that car. Check out the full gallery below:

I honestly couldn’t fault you if you made Skyrim your game of the year and Sons of Anarchy your show of the year. A case could be made for either, as both are masters of their respective genres.

So naturally, someone had the idea to combine them. This t-shirt design is available on Red Bubble, but sadly not in leather jacket patch form. But if you buy it, be sure to get it printed on the back.

It’s been a “it’s probably going to happen” rumor for a while now, but according to Kiefer Sutherland, a 24 movie is going forward at last, and it’s set to start shooting this April.

For 24 fans, this is generally cause for celebration, as the series finale was left a cliffhanger for the sole purpose of such a movie existing, and now that it does, it’s something to cheer about.

But in eight seasons, 24 has done plenty of bad things to offset the good, and it’s going to need to be very careful in order to craft an effective film here.

Of all the childhood crushes I had growing up, I can’t say that either of the Flintstone women, Betty Rubble or Wilma, ever ended up  making the list. Hell, I even had a crush on Gadget from Chip and Dale’s Rescue Rangers, but these ladies just didn’t do it for me.

But now, of course, I’m being tempted to change my mind. Pro cosplayers Rekuuu and Yorie have taken it upon themselves to bring the two prehistoric ladies into the modern era. Though it’s not the most complex cosplay costume in the world, they did hit every little detail they could, and these are expertly made and shot.

Check out a full gallery below, and no, you won’t have to see any barrel chested men as Barney and Fred.
