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......

Every weekday of December (except for December 25, that is), Phillyist will be counting down to 2008 with our highlights from the past year and our predictions for the next. If you have a list you'd like to submit, let us know! 10. Jumper - Yeah, I know it stars the whiny Darth Vader, but it's also got Sam "Motherfucking" Jackson, and a screenplay co-written by David Goyer about a war between teleporters and those......

Although The Golden Compass is being compared to the Narnia Chronicles in some of the ads, the series that the book it's based on is a part of - Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy - is really the anti-Narnia: equal but exactly opposite to C.S. Lewis' saga of Christian allegory. Some people are saying that The Golden Compass is anti-Catholic - and they're right. The movie doesn't emphasize it as much as the book......

Judging by the, as of this writing, abysmal freshness rating of 18% on Rotten Tomatoes, a lot of people don't agree with me, but I thought The Invasion was a pretty good movie. It's apparently the fourth film adaptation of a story originally told in a Collier's magazine serial (and which was later turned into a novel), but the only other movie version I've ever seen was the first one - 1956's Invasion of the......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. The internet is a wonderful place where every day you can find people out there inventing ingenious new foods. Take, for instance, these meatloaf cupcakes where the frosting is made of mashed potatoes. Brilliant! (Via Sarah) This appears to have gone up on Thursday last week, but it's the first time we're seeing it, so we'll pass it on to you,......

...Hilarious: It's not celeb news, but dammit, click the (moderately NSFW) link anyway. (Via Gallery of the Absurd.) ...Heartbreak: Say it ain't so! (Via The Superficial.) ...Intestines: Farrah Fawcett should be a-okay. (Via E! Online.) ...Butt Pirates: As if Daniel Craig hadn't been mocked enough during the making of Casino Royale! (Via I Don't Like You in that Way.) ...Pretty Boys: Less vain celebrities just shave their heads. (Via Just Jared.) ...Making Eugenics Make Sense:......

What's new and/or interesting in Philly theaters this weekend. Infamous - The real-life story of Truman Capote and his experiences while writing his book on a real-life murder case, In Cold Blood. Wait a minute, that sounds familiar. Where have we heard of this movie before? Oh, that's right! It was called Capote, and they made it last year! Seriously, what are they thinking putting out another movie about the exact same story barely a......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. Pac-Xon is a combination of two classic video games, and those two games are not Pac-Man and Zaxxon, as this Phillyist had anticipated - with geeky excitement, we might add. Instead, the two games are Pac-Man and Qix, which is nearly as good, and makes for some addictive fun. (Via) Ooh, more exciting His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass casting news!......
