Whiz of the Web: Friday Fried Onions

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets.

• This Tribute to Ray Harryhausen doesn't exactly have any of the man's genius, but it is pretty funny, and certainly goes off in directions we couldn't have predicted. (Via)
• All of Bob Dob's paintings and drawings are really quite cool, but of course, it's the Mario and Luigi ones we like the best. (Via)
• It's classic album covers through the ages, animated and fighting each other in a bloody, disgusting war. Now that's comedy. The short was apparently put together for an event called Battle of the Ad-Bands in NYC. (Via)
• Yet more of the Guitar Hero II song list has oozed out onto the internet, and we bring the leakage straight to you. The news is good, friends. Very good.
• X-Men 3 DVDs are flying off the shelves, so make sure to grab yours now, especially since an unknown number of the single disc editions include 21 deleted scenes, instead of the measly 10 that were supposed to be on there (the other 11 were supposedly meant to be held back for a two disc version coming out next year).
• What happened to the competitors from Street Fighter II after the tournament was over and the royalty checks stopped coming? College Humor reveals the sad truth, in what is apparently the first episode of a series - or at least, we hope so. This is funny stuff! (Via)
• Speaking of sad truths being revealed - Kubrick knew Eyes Wide Shut was a crappy film, and blamed it on Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. At least, according to Kubrick's friend R. Lee Ermey, who says the director confided in him by phone shortly before his death.
