The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you.
- These are supposedly the leaked release date and system requirements for Diablo III. (Via)
- The hilarious and horrifying Taco Town taco, as imagined by SNL. It probably won't surprise you to learn that somebody actually tried to make one of these things. (Via)
- Variety looks at the fascinating similarities between Watchmen and Monsters vs. Aliens (via Angela); a Dr. Manhattan cocktail (via Sarah); Nerd World's pseudo liveblog of the Watchmen experience; plush versions of Dr. Manhattan and Rorschach; and an interesting video documenting a still photographer's adventures on the set of Watchmen.
- The Invincible Super-Blog presents "Silver Age Stories That Are Significantly Less Erotic Than Their Titles Would Imply, v.1."
- A gallery of Wired's favorite aerodynamic cars, and a gallery of forgotten electronic games.
- Sweet new RF-based remote controls are on the way.
- A special musical performance by Joss Whedon? We're intrigued.
- After having just painstakingly pieced together our schedule for the Philadelphia Film Festival manually, we have to say, B-Side's Festival Genius sounds fantastic.
- Cinematical takes a look at some memorable title sequences.
- The first image of Daniel Radcliffe in character for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
- New pics from Prince of Persia and Wolverine.
- Here's a website that's unfortunately very apropos in the current economic climate: Stuff Unemployed People Like. (Via Ross)
- Firefox has 100% market share! In Antarctica.
- Behold! The Super Mario corset.
- How about some free music? XPN has Architecture in Helsinki and Bell X-1 for you.

- GamePro magazine is launching an independent game publishing label dubbed GamePro Labs. It'll focus on titles for the iPhone and XNA platforms.
- A new Pac-Man game is in the works.
- Nerd World picks the top 10 graphic novels of all time. This Phillyist is sad to say I'd never even heard of three of these, I've only read three (although admittedly all three were very good), and of the rest, there's one (Jimmy Corrigan, the Smartest Kid on Earth) I know I'd hate, even though I've never read it, because it's part of that whole genre of pointless, depressing, and irritating indie books that are all about pain and shame and self-loathing.
- Sounds like they're just going to go ahead and reboot Fantastic Four. Probably for the best.
- Underwire takes a look at Ray Harryhausen's recent picture book about his long career in the movies.
- The latest Star Trek trailer remixed with video from the original TV series. Also, John Cho on his role as Sulu in the movie.

- Ooh! Gradius ReBirth is up on WiiWare!
- Super Punch has the usual collection of amusing stuff, including a Flickr photo set of a pet AT-AT, a creepy illustration of Uatu the Watcher, and the dark truth behind the Amish computer virus.
- Boba Fett mouse! (Via)
- PA legislators have been discussing the possibility of a violent video game tax.
- The guy who directed the cinematics in Resident Evil 5 is in talks with Capcom to develop a live-action film based on one of the company's properties. And speaking of video game movies, rumor has it John Woo's Stranglehold could be headed that way soon. Which seems kind of pointless, as the game was essentially based on John Woo's movies in the first place, but whatever.
- An interview with Lucy Lawless on her role in the web series Angel of Death.
