POP: The Floating Heads Guy
2008-09-04 14:30:00 This is just gold right here. I've seen this guy do some funny work on the Onion(though I don't know his name). To think someone must have had the honor to place Deniro's and Pacino's heads floating in space next to one another. It's enough to make someone tear up. More About: Floating , Heads
POP: Mythbusters draw the Mona Lisa in 80 Milliseconds
2008-09-04 14:00:00 Yeah I know this has been on the web for a good week now and has been posted everywhere, but that doesn't make it any less cool to look at. Too bad the parallel processing analogy is a bit faulty. Still you have to credit the Mythbusters for putting on such a spectacular demonstration by painting a Mona Lisa in 80 milliseconds using only paint balls. The slow motion video is just incredible. More About: Draw
POP: Sam Kinison in Back to School
2008-09-03 21:49:00 I felt this appropriate considering most schools are now back in session. I had a professor like this who reacted similarly if you ever mentioned your were agnostic or atheist... More About: Comedy , School , Back , Back to School , The Movies
Zack and Miri Make a Porno: Red Band Trailer!
2008-09-03 21:44:00 Ok this one is definitely not SFW but I am getting a good vibe here from Kevin Smith 's latest movie staring Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks. If I am lucky and make it into a rush screening at TIFF I may have a review Zack and Miri Make a Porno this Sunday. More About: Video , Movies , Band , Trailer
ScriptGirl Report for August 29th 2008
2008-09-02 03:51:00 It really stinks that we just got great news that Mark Steven Johnson was no longer adapting Ennis's Vertigo series of Preacher for HBO. Preacher was perfectly suited for HBO even if Johnson was no suitable for Preacher (or anything good for that matter). More About: Film , Comics , Report , August
What I?m Playing: Braid
2008-08-29 18:05:00 I picked up Braid the day it was released on Xbox Live Arcade, with only a tiny bit of knowledge about it. I had heard some conversations via 1UP Yours and via the Indie Games Panels from a Game Developers Conference. I figured it was the usual pretentious indie design where you have beautiful artwork ...
POP: Procrastination!!!
2008-08-29 17:10:00 Here's one of those ironic posts since I have been 'busy' hanging out with my friend Scott who is spending his vacation up here in Toronto (gotta love the FanExpo). More About: Procrastination , Short Film
POP: Red Alert 3 Camp Trailer
2008-08-28 01:14:00 I used to be a fan of the Red Alert series and Command & Conquer as well, but I am starting to feel they no longer 'get the game'. Getting some from Jennifer McCarthy is not a reward. It's a punishment. More About: Gaming , Trailer , Camp , Red Alert
POP: Large Hadron Collider Rap
2008-08-25 14:00:00 This video is as informative as it is creepy. It’s very informative. More About: France , Switzerland , Crap , Large
POP: Toxic Avenger ?Carnality?
2008-08-25 05:28:00 Unfortunately I did not make it to the Lloyd Kaufman Q&A at this year's FanExpo in Toronto, but I felt this scene from Toxic Avenger was appropriate none the less. More About: The Movies
POP: The Geometry Wars Song
2008-08-23 14:00:00 I figured my nemesis (yes, I know who you are) would appreciate this. I kinda feel bad for the guy. I though the green buggers in Geometry Wars 2 were some of the easiest in this Xbox Live Arcade game. More About: Song , Geometry Wars
POP: Baracky 2
2008-08-22 14:00:00 Sometimes people who are into politics have too much time on their hands. It makes me wonder if someone in the Democratic party was paid (or paid for) to have this made. As funny as it is disturbing. I always knew Hillary was a dude. More About: Politics , President , Barack Obama , Boxing , Hillary Clinton
POP: Team Fortress 2?s ?The Sandvich?
2008-08-21 14:00:00 If you haven't been keeping up the good ole boys at Valve and Steam are having another free weekend along with the new Heavy Update. Enjoy the Sanvich! More About: Team , Fortress , Team Fortress
POP: John Carpenter?s The Thing With GI JOE Figures
2008-08-20 14:00:00 Wow! Talk about an attention to detail. I don't even want to fathom how much time they had to put into this recreation of John Carpenter's The Thing . I'm really impressed with the snow effects and general set pieces. This easily the best film recreation I have ever seen with action figures and these days that is saying quite a lot. Great work from Simon Gesrel and Xavier Ehretsmann. More About: Figures , John Carpenter , The Movies
POP: Team Fortress 2 Goes Bankrupt
2008-08-19 14:00:00 If this is what's to come from Machinima we have bright days ahead indeed. More About: Video , Team , Fortress , Steam , Team Fortress
POP: Quentin Tarantino destroys Uppity Film Critic
2008-08-18 14:00:00 This video is a little on the old side, going way back to the release of Kill Bill , and I am totally on Quentin Tarantino 's side on this one. I watch some really graphically violent stuff as a kid and I handled it fine. Heck, my family often had to take me because most of the films I enjoyed were R-Rated (Thanks to my Granny for that 3-D screening of Freddy's Dead and The Crow!). If kids can't handle it, consider it a form of social darwinism. More About: Film , Review
POP: Batman has Tourette?s
2008-08-17 14:00:00 I'll admit that sometimes my sense of humor can be pretty low. And for this... I appologize. More About: Batman , Tourette , The Movies , Tourettes
POP: Time for the 1st Will Wright Minute
2008-08-16 14:00:00 I have to say this is one of the best(if not the only) idea that G4 has ever pumped out. Will Wright is a great speaker(just check out his TED talk on Montesorri schools) and I look forward to his minutes of somewhat useless though definately interesting trivia. More About: Time , Minute , Sims , Will Wright
What I?m playing : Soul Caliber IV
2008-08-16 03:37:00 Don't get me wrong here, I love breasts and everything, but there is something about the massively distracting cleavage that screams 'too much!'. It even makes me ponder what this says about Japanese male culture. More About: Xbox , Soul , Fighting , Yoda
Trailer: Hell Ride
2008-08-15 14:00:00 This might be one of the few times where a film has Quentin Tarantino's name preceding where it actually looks like he may have had a hand in its production. You've got Michael Madsen and David Carradine with Larry Bishop directing this grindhouse-like flick. You might recognize Larry Bishop as one half of former comedic partnership with Rob Reiner and as the sleazy Larry Gomez in Tarantino's Kill Bill Volume 2. More About: Video , Trailer , Grindhouse , Ride , Hell
Soapbox: Does Ledger?s Joker Deserve an Oscar?
2008-08-14 14:30:00 Also most people who have been part of these discussions forget we haven't even gotten to the Oscar movie season yet. If anyone remembers Road to Perdition it got screwed out of many awards because A. It was based on a graphic novel and B. It was released in the Summer. Most Oscar voters suffer from severe alzeimers, so forgive them if they forget every movie released prior to September. More About: Heath Ledger , Comics , Dark Knight , Joker
Trailer: The Informers
2008-08-14 14:00:00 Ok, The cast for this movie looks fantastic and I really dig Easton Ellis 's work (at least when it comes to being adapted to film) . Gregor Jordan however hasn't really directed anything of much worth. This could break him out. More About: Video , Trailer
Trailer: Appaloosa
2008-08-13 20:04:00 Being both a fan of Harris and Mortensen I am really looking forward to this Western . Not to mention I am a huge Western fan and it seems that even though we don't get many Western genre movies these days that when we do they tend to be excellent. More About: Video , Trailer , Viggo Mortensen , Ed Harris
Because Dancing Star Wars characters are inherently funny?
2008-08-13 14:00:00 Trites and I once made a music video years and years ago parodying Star Wars using the MMO Star Wars: Galaxies where we had his Rodian dancer... dancing to Bonnie Tyler's Holding Out For A Hero. When I get the chance to rummage through my hard-drives I'll take a look for it. More About: Dancing , Funny
POP: Words Cannot Describe this work of genius
2008-08-12 14:30:00 Being Canadian, I'm not quite familiar with Taco Johns... but I wish it. More About: Humor , Work , Words , Genius
POP: Is barack Obama Neo or just Moses?
2008-08-11 14:30:00 McCain is sure digging one hell of a deep hole(maybe he is tunneling to North Korea). Funny how this attack ad says more about the attacker than the one who is attacked(Barack Obama ). Last time I checked it was McCain who is from the Bible belt... More About: Humor , John
POP: Anthrax Attacks an Inside Job?
2008-08-10 14:30:00 Is the Bush Administration beginning to look like the Hindenburgh? This definately does not bode well for Mr. McCain. More About: Inside , Inside Job , Keith , Anthrax , Attacks

POP: The Olympics are a Trap
2008-08-09 14:30:00 I know this is hilarious but is anyone else other than me expecting something really bad to happen during the Beijing Olympics? Yeah, I'm a pessimist. More About: News , Politics , Sports , Humor , Pop
