You Can't Take The Sky From Me

I love Mondo and most of their limited edition posters...I really do. Now you are waiting for my big BUT.... BUT..most of the time, you have to be the fastest at the keyboard with the fastest, no fail internet connection and a healthy bank account to own a slice of Mondo goodness. The industry at large has noticed this empty space in your collections and have been doing their damnedest to dress your walls with all manor of zazzy art on the swankiest of papers, dipped in the shiniest of inks. Quantum Mechanix is one such purveyor of geektastic wonders and today...well today is the day the Browncoats get their piece of the action.

Firefly 10th Anniversary Celebration Art Print : September 20, 2002. That was the day that the American space western TV series Firefly premiered on the Fox network, bringing to life the adventures of Captain Malcolm Reynolds and his renegade crew aboard the spaceship Serenity.

Suffer the Poor, Defenseless Toys

I swear...if this continues I'm going to commission a mournful infomercial showing the toys left battered, broken and unloved after a rampant Toy Raping has occurred. We've touched on this subject in the past, but it seems the same three individuals are still at work in my area, so I thought I might shed a blinding light on them once more in the hopes Toys R Us, Walmart, Marshalls, Target and K Mart will actually keep an eye open and catch these fantastic asshats in the act. Here are the latest victims and our profiles on the attackers. Police sketches courtesy of Photoshop...



Code Name: Swapenshizer

Crime: Most likely buys a set of figures, takes out the figures and pieces of figures he wants and replaces those items with others.

San Diego Comic-Con 2012 : Day 4 Diary

Titled Henchman Ed Hardy Han Solo

You win some..you lose some. My Friday was packed with ParaNorman interviews, the casts of Total Recall and Looper answering my questions and free t shirts on top of it all. Sony & Focus Features sure did show me some love! Unfortunately, the Warner Brothers press conferences were jam packed by the time I had started begging for a spot, promising to stand in the back to film with no expectation of getting a question off at all. Hell I would have sat UNDER the table to be in the room with the cast of The Hobbit. The movie gods were not swinging things in my favor, freeing up my day for further toy shooting and another run through the show with the hot, furry, insanely geeky HOBACCA!! Yes, Mika was dead set on getting the most out of her sexy Chewbacca costume, but I was not looking forward to another day in that thick Han Solo shirt, so we made a compromise. The people of San Diego had not yet gazed upon the glory of my 2011 Birthday present from Leenie...my HENCHMAN HOODIE!! Hand stitched in half a dozen places and show accurate, save a couple of antennae we couldn't figure out how to create, this thing was a beauty and I was intent on proudly wearing it to the biggest geek show on the planet...so I wore it under my Han Solo vest creating Henchman Ed Hardy Han Solo. It made perfect sense. Before I could storm the con floor, I had an important task to perform.

ParaNorman Crew Talk Undead Details

While running the gambit we call San Diego Comic Con, I took full advantage of moments where I could sit, enjoy functioning air conditioning, and chat with film makers and the actors that bring their creations to life. This weekend, we get to take in one such project. Paranorman, the instant stop motion masterpiece from the mad geniuses at Laika, promises to elevate the art of stop motion animation to new heights and, on a simpler level, make you smile like crazy. Here's the skinny...

Jaws Blu-ray Reviewed

I’m a bit of an odd duck. When I really love an older movie, I prefer to not own it, as this provides me the opportunity to run into it accidentally whilst flipping through channels some random day. It’s the most excellent of surprises. Occasionally, there is that rare instance when film makers put forth a Herculean effort to create the perfect Blu-ray transfer which then gets my attention…but a dilemma still exists. I am so used to watching the “safe for TV” version of a film, it becomes burned into my brain and the theatrical version is long forgotten. Such is the case with Jaws, a film with numerous scenes extended in the TV version; one of which has become my favorite.

Hot Spanish Super Mario Love

Here in the states, we have mega stars getting acquainted with Siri; the omnipresent voice of their iPhone... with fairly idiotic results. These commercials are so dim, they have spawned a Twitter called Zooey Asks Siri, in which a parody Zooey Dachenel asks Siri such gems as "Siri, where can I find a purse made from bells?" or "Siri, find me a list of superpowers that no one has yet."or my current favorite "Siri, make a note: A store that sells hats from the Olympics." To give credit for being there first...however you can do that in a world where celebrity endorsements have always been around...Nintendo were sort of the originators of celebs talking lovingly to their hand held devices. Take from that statement whatever visual you need to get you through your day, but note that if this were, at the very least, the cinemaxish porn the setting would normally suggest, the ending would be waaaaay different. Tip of the hat to Bleeding Cool for the heads up!



Of course none of this makes me want to buy another game system, adorable Spaniards or not...but I thank Nintendo UK for two hot ladies rolling around playing video games. For some folks, that's more than enough.

Adventure Time Candy Zombies Attack

With the cartoon series Adventure Time reaching new heights of popularity, kids of all sizes are looking for more toys and merch from their favorite show...and are still coming up short. While Jazwares promises new toys are on the way and several t shirt manufacturers are conjuring AT goods as we speak, one crew has combined our love of this quirky cartoon and the bitey undead to create a memento allowing one to relive the moments when the Land of Ooo was almost engulfed in a ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE!!! Sure..the danger was coming from adorable undead candy people..but they were starting to munch on fleshies and that would have quickly transformed the nearly squeaky clean cartoon into a gory horror fest. I dream of what could have been. At any rate, dig Changes new Adventure Time zombie group shot T shirt, available for pre-order NOW at Entertainment Earth.
