The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment.
- It's Watch Dollhouse Week! Know what you should do this week? Watch Dollhouse!! (Via various)
- The makers of Wolverine found a way to try to get people into theaters after all: "they've included multiple after-the-credits endings spread across several prints of the film, meaning folks will have to visit multiple theaters in order to watch them all." More details on this from the director. Also, a talk with Hugh Jackman about the film.
- The complete G.I. Joe: Resolute aired on TV this weekend; you can watch the final episode here. Here's a great review of the thing, which might be slightly NSFW.
- Star Wars characters start new careers in advertising. (Via)
- A painting of the Scooby Doo villains and an interesting reinterpretation of the show: Shaggy is the only real character, and everything else is a figment of his bad drug trips.
- This whole swine flu thing is getting a little scary. A particularly disturbing element: Barack Obama was in Mexico when the outbreak began; a man he met there died the next day of the flu.
- Sci Fi Wire talked to Leonard Nimoy about Star Trek and Fringe. Speaking of Star Trek, this is interesting: the nine questions asked of the audience at a preview screening of the film.
- Grimlock as a waiter. (Via)
- Zoidberg strikes! (Via)
- Researchers may have found a way to save the bees. (Via)
- Monkeys water skiing and driving speed boats! Sort of. They're actually on wave boards, and the speed boats are remote controlled. But still.
- The "true" story of Rudy the Undead Hound. (Via)
- Cinematical gives us Tribeca in 60 seconds.

- Activision and Gibson have settled that Guitar Hero patent lawsuit.
- It looks like a Final Fantasy VII poster makes a cameo in Caprica.
- The film adaptation of BioShock is apparently in trouble due to budget concerns.
- Storyboards for Terminator: Salvation.

- That huge model rocket we posted about earlier launched successfully the other day. Click through for pics and video.
- Scientists have bred transgenic puppies that glow red under UV light. Glow-in-the-dark puppies! Why? Because we could! Actually, the point is apparently to show that "cloning and transgenesis can be applied to a wide range of mammals." Also, this gives us another potential tool to understand disease. Somehow or other. Whatever; some scientist's kid clearly just wanted a glow-in-the-dark puppy.
