The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. This is pretty funny—one or more people covered a poster for Twilight in the NYC subway with spoilers for the rest of the series. And a penis drawing. For more Twilight hilarity, check out this rejected screenplay (via). And finally, in all seriousness, it is kind of neat that the film had the best opening weekend ever for......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. Sad news: author Michael Crichton died Tuesday of cancer at age 66.

You may have seen the vaguely amusing, Risky Business-style commercial for Guitar Hero: World Tour starring......

We have the date for the North American release of No More Heroes 2, and sadly it's way the hell......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. Terrence Howard's being replaced by Don Cheadle in Iron Man 2. This is sort of good news, insofar as we really love Don Cheadle, but we also feel oddly sad to see Howard go. He really seemed to want to put on that suit. Ah, well. Behold, the hottest movie-related Halloween costumes of 2008! We're happy to hear that "slutty Playboy......

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. At least some of the images included in Microsoft's "I'm a PC" ads appear to have been produced on a Mac. D'oh! The relatively new blog ThingsWithApproximatelyAsManyPeopleAsWasilla.com kind of explains itself. (Via Phillyist Contribute page) Defective Yeti has put out part one of his Halloween Gaming Guide. Woo hoo! Cinematical has what appear to be images of the......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. If you, like this Phillyist, went to see The Incredible Hulk this weekend and were completely unable to spot the Captain America cameo, even after staying through the entire end credits sequence, well... there's something you should know: the director recently revealed that the cameo scene he'd promised us in a previous interview had to be cut out because it was......

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. Friend and famous local tech dude Tom Boutell has unveiled the public beta of his alternative to iSEPTA. It provides scheduling data on SEPTA trains, subways, trolleys, and buses, and supports not just the iPhone, but pretty much any web-enabled phone. It's called septime. Check it out. (Via) Enjoy a hilarious video critique of the worst DVD ever. If you have seen the......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. Sony Electronics Inc. and the National Cable and Telecommunications Association have signed an agreement with a group of cable providers (including Comcast) that will allow viewers to get rid of their set-top boxes, but still receive advanced "two-way" cable services (like pay-per-view movies). Awesome. We hate those damn boxes. (Via Sarah) Did you know that there is a World Superhero Registry, listing all......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you.

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you.

Well, as all things must these days, the portraits have a blog, which lately chronicled their visit to Philadelphia. The world is a strange place... (Via Megan) Um... what? We're a......

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. It's finally official: Guillermo del Toro will indeed be directing the movies based on The Hobbit. Hoorah! (Via Ross) America, prepare to be stimulated even earlier than you expected! Btw, we hear the government is considering following up the free money with some free bread and circuses. (Via Sarah) Warren Ellis has the normal collection of weird, interesting, and mind-blowing stories today. We......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. In response to all the buzz over the botched box art for the Wii version of Okami, Capcom is offering to replace the art with one of three different designs. Go here to get yours. Apparently, the Lost Boys sequel is going directly to DVD (boo!), and you can see the cover art for said DVD here. Speaking of DVDs, apparently the deluxe......

We're sure you'll be missing these, now that the Primary is over.......

Terrell Owens just may have shown up in the background of a photo from a hardcore porn shoot (which is, disappointingly, pretty safe for work). (Via Sarah) Penny Arcade points out that there are some things you really just don't need to put on Twitter. Don't mess with the Goddamn Batman. He knows lawyers. Heh heh. Apparently Uwe Boll got in......

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. Today is Tax Day. If you're not feeling so jolly about paying your income taxes, Irving Berlin and Danny Kaye can help (via Jill). If you're still depressed after that, just go get yourself a free donut at Dunkin' Donuts; they're giving one out today to anybody who buys a coffee. Speaking of taxes, we're depressed that digital......

Provocative documentary director and activist Morgan Spurlock is at it again, this time turning a critical eye (and lens) on Al Qaeda with Where in the World is Osama Bin Ladin? After years of hype, chase and dire predictions of imminent showdowns, this public enemy #1 is still on the loose, and we're apparently no closer to apprehending him (or blowing him away). Not content to buy the Bush administration's rhetoric on the subject, Spurlock......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. Those guys at Google are freaking hilarious. (Via Jill) New Iron Man photos! Take a look at Movie Blog's copies quick, because Paramount has already gotten the site that originally posted them to take them down. If you head on over to the Adult Swim site, it appears that you can now watch the entire Aqua Teen Hunger Force Movie online for free.......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. Dolph Lundgren is writing and directing a film called Command Performance, which he describes as "Die Hard at a rock concert." He stars as an ex-Marine drummer for the warm-up band of a big American performer giving a concert for the Russian premier. Bad guys break up the show and the drummer goes into action.

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. As we're sure you've heard at some point, Guns N' Roses has been promising to put out a new album called Chinese Democracy for years and years, but the thing has yet to materialize. In order to speed things along (and, yeah, for marketing purposes, too), Dr. Pepper has promised it will give a free can of soda to everyone in America—except for......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. Muxtape looks like a cool idea (although beware—it seems to be a bit unreliable at the moment, perhaps due to its sudden popularity). Upload some MP3s and then anybody else can listen to them as a streaming playlist. There are no issues of legality because there's no way to actually download the songs. We're really enjoying this particular muxtape at the......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. Looks like Paramount Pictures wants Sam Raimi to spearhead a revival of the Jack Ryan franchise. Clint Eastwood is going to direct and star in a film called Gran Torino. Details are being kept under wraps, but the rumor is the film might be a new entry in the Dirty Harry series. Feeling lucky, punk?! We're not a huge fan of the work......

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. The last Harry Potter book is going to be adapted into two separate movies, to be released in November 2010 and May 2011.

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you.
