What If Quentin Tarantino Wrote Disney Movies for Samuel L. Jackson? (6 photo)

Check out this somewhat disturbing series of movie posters for several classic Disney films if they had been written by Quentin Tarantino and starred Samuel L. Jackson. Even though I grew up watching these movies, and I thing they're great, this direction is so much more interesting, and would prove to be crazy entertaining. Thanks to Buzzfeed!

NINJA TURTLE Designs with More Traditional Ninja Armor (5 photo)

Here are a couple of great concept designs from artist Danny Mora that feature Michelangelo and Leonardo brandishing more traditional ninja weapons and armor. We have yet to see what the Turtles will look like in Jonathan Liebesman's new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. If they look like something along these lines, I will be very pleased. I think armor and clothing would give some nice weight to the CG characters. I'd much rather see some progressively scuffed up clothing than pristine turtle skin the entire movie. Particularly in the Michelangelo design, you can also see that there's this romantic quality the flowing fabric adds to the piece -- much like Batman's cape in the comics and the Nolan films.

Honest Trailer for IRON MAN 3 (1 photo + 1 video)

“See Iron Man how you’ve never wanted to see him before. Insecure, anxious, and paralyzed with fear.” The gang over at Screen Junkies set their sights on Iron Man 3, and they brutally tear it apart. If you didn't like Iron Man 3, then I'm sure this honest trailer will make you hate it even more. I enjoyed the movie, but they do hit on some really solid points of ridiculousness.

MACHETE KILLS Has a New TV Spot (1 photo + 1 video)

We've got a new TV spot for Robert Rodriguez's Machete Kills, and if you were hoping to see some new footage from the movie, then you're in luck! The first Grindhouse style film was ridiculously over the top, and this looks like it's going to be even more insane! I'm sure it will be awesomely entertaining. Danny Trejo leads the ensemble cast that also includes Lady Gaga, Mel Gibson, Cuba Gooding Jr., Vanessa Hudgens, Amber Heard, Michelle Rodriguez, Zoe Saldana, Edward James Olmos, William Sadler, Mark Zaror, Demián Bichir, Charlie Sheen, a.k.a. Carlos Estevez, Sofia Vergara, Alexa Vega, and Elle LaMont .

New AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN Teaser (1 photo + 1 video)

"Coven" features a great cast of actors that include Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Sarah Paulson, Frances Conroy, Gabourey Sidibe, Denis O'Hare, Patti LuPone, Evans Peters, Taissa Farmiga, Lily Rabe, and Emma Roberts. Coven tells the secret history of witches and witchcraft in America. Over 300 years have passed since the turbulent days of the Salem witch trials and those who managed to escape are now facing extinction. Mysterious attacks have been escalating against their kind and young girls are being sent away to a special school in New Orleans to learn how to protect themselves. Wrapped up in the turmoil is new arrival, Zoe (Farmiga), who is harboring a terrifying secret of her own. Alarmed by the recent aggression, Fiona (Lange), the long-absent Supreme, sweeps back into town, determined to protect the Coven and hell-bent on decimating anyone who gets in her way.

This is one of the best and coolest Star Wars cosplay outfits I've ever seen. This Wookie cosplay is the character Tarfful from The Revenge of the Sith, and it's jaw-droppingly awesome. The video comes from YouTuber plaigeous, who says:

Steampunk IRON MAN and OPTIMUS PRIME Helmets (4 photo)

The steampunk look is so cool, but it seems like it would be an expensive scene to get in to. Especially with those amazingly detailed costumes and gear. Etsy user Captain Bayley has created a couple of radical steampunk helmets for Iron Man and Optimus Prime. I love how they turned out!

15 Art Pieces of WONDER WOMAN and CAPTAIN AMERICA by Des Taylor (16 photo)

Des Taylor (known as DESPOP) has created some wonderful art. The team of Wonder Woman and Captain America is among my favorites, and that is perfectly encapsulated by the recent commission piece he did featuring the two of them, which you can find featured in the slideshow below. The art itself is fantastic, but above that, I personally believe that Steve and Diana would make a much better fit than she and Clark do. As tempting as it is to make this post nothing but a rant on that particular subject, I will resist and instead focus on Despop's lovely art style. Check out the gallery to see more of his Cap and a lot more of his Wonder Woman, and if you enjoy it, you can find more of his work on deviant art or his official store.

Tom Hiddleston Teaches Cookie Monster a Lesson (1 photo + 1 video)

Here's a great video from PBS that features Tom Hiddleston teaching Cookie Monster a lesson about self-control. Maybe waving a cookie in front of Cookie Monster's face isn't the best way to start this lesson out. Like a true villain, Hiddleston just sits there teasing him with a cookie the whole time, but good things come to those who wait. Well... that's what I heard!

The 5 Least Likely 'Breaking Bad' Spinoffs (6 photo)

AMC’s hit show ‘Breaking Bad’ is drawing to a close. Perhaps to the dismay of some selfish fans out there, ‘Breaking Bad’ creator Vince Gilligan correctly refused to produce integrity-killing plotlines (i.e. like how Pam and Jim get married on ‘The Office’) to further line his pockets with more dough. The only scenario more doubtful than Gilligan extending the life of his masterpiece would be creating a series of spinoffs. Below are the five least likely ‘Breaking Bad’ spinoffs.

2013 NY Fashion Week: 14 Men's Styles We're Glad Never Got Popular (14 photo)

Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week 2013 began this week and that should mean absolutely nothing to anyone reading this website. Here is the basic idea — a bunch of designers you can’t afford show off clothes you’ll never own to a crowd of famous people you’ll never get to meet. Occasionally, there are naked boobs. Instead of showing pictures of the absurd 2014 clothing lines, we went back into the archives to check out the awful styles of the past. Sadly, any of this stuff would work on the runway today. Here are fourteen men’s styles that thankfully never filtered down to your local Target.

Jack Nicholson Announces Retirement at Age 76 (1 photo)

We really can’t handle the truth: Hollywood legend Jack Nicholson is retiring from acting. Nicholson, 76, quietly stepped down from a 50-year career. “Jack has — without fanfare — retired,” an insider told Radar Online. The rationale behind his decision has to do with his aging. “There is a simple reason behind his decision — it’s memory loss. Quite frankly, at 76, Jack has memory issues and can no longer remember the lines being asked of him,” the source revealed. “His memory isn’t what it used to be.” Nicholson, who was nominated for a record 12 Academy Awards for acting (winning three), will continue enjoying the spotlight — just not starring in it. “Jack has no intention of retiring from the limelight,” the source said, noting the Oscar winner’s regular courtside Lakers games and Academy Award presentation with First Lady Michelle Obama in February. “He’s not retiring from public life, at all. He just doesn’t want a tribute,” the source said. “He’s happy to tacitly join the retirees club like Sean Connery.” We’ll miss you, Jack!

Lady Gaga May Pull Double Duty as Host + Musical Guest on 'SNL' (1 photo)

Lady Gaga will reportedly appear on ‘Saturday Night Live‘ for the third time come this fall, but unlike her past appearances, Mother Monster will be acting as both the host and the musical guest during an episode of the long-running comedy program. This will put Gaga in the same ranks as Justin Timberlake who recently did double duty on the show in one of the better episodes, as well as Justin Bieber, who was reportedly a good sport. A rep for NBC refused to comment on the reported lineup. Gaga has previously acted in small sketches on the show, including a digital short with Timberlake and Andy Samberg and a face off with Madonna as herself. She will also make her acting debut on the big screen next month in the purposeful B-movie ‘Machete Kills.’ She’s not going into this completely blind. Basically, the 39th season of the sketch comedy show is in for an interesting year. Even more so if Lindsay Lohan says yes to hosting for her sixth time.

Step Inside The Grandiose & Extravagant Theatres Of Paris (7 photo)

Paris is recognised throughout Europe and most of the world, as a city famous for love and it’s passion for art and theatre. So what better place for gifted photographer Franck Bohbot to create his series ‘Theaters’. In it he takes you deep inside some of the most majestic and opulent theatres and galleries in Paris, to admire their beautiful designs and architecture. It’s a sight few if any get to see. Normally each theatre is awash with the movement & endless chatter of hundreds of patrons or plunged into total darkness during a performance. Frank’s imagines, are as beautiful as they are unique – it’s not everyday you have an entire Parisian theatre all to yourself. You can take in all the other theatres from his series here as well as purchase limited edition prints of his work. In the meantime, let him give you a private tour of the very best of Paris and it’s love of the arts.

Yes, indeed, ladies and gentlemen you have read the title above correctly. Somewhere in Portland Oregon, there is a man in a kilt, riding a unicycle, dressed as Darth Vader, playing the bagpipes, which occasionally spit fire. For your edification and enlightment, here is Darth Vader, on a unicycle, playing Star Wars music on a bagpipe. That occasionally shoots fire.

'Breaking Bad' Best Show Ever, Says Guinness (1 photo)

Walter White, he knows all about your operation, your “TV show.” His partners tell him that you’re producing a series that’s 70% great, if you’re lucky. What he stars on, Breaking Bad, is 99.1% masterpiece. “So?” you might be asking yourself. “So,” Walt responds, “it’s grade-school T-ball versus the New York Yankees, but, like, the good New York Yankees, not the current limping New York Yankees. They’re terrible. What I am is classic Coke.” “Who the hell are you?” all other TV shows ask. “You know exactly who I am. Say my show’s name.” “Do what…? I don’t, I don’t have a damn clue who the hell you are.” “Yeah, you do. I’m the star of the greatest TV show of all-time, according to Guinness World Records.” “Bullsh*t. What about Homeboys in Outer Space?” “SAY. MY. SHOW’S. NAME.” “Breaking Bad.” “You’re goddamn right.”

The 16 Best Lines From The Season Premiere Of FXX's 'The League' (9 photo)

New station, new night, same old The League. Last night’s premiere of the FXX series may not have been as good as some of the best episodes of the series, but it was good to have the gang back in our lives (and as importantly, it signaled the arrival of fantasy football season). The premiere tried to do what last season’s rape joke episode did in taking something that would seem off limits, in the case AIDS, and turn it into a recurring punchline. The results were mixed to good, although the episode — as usual — hit its highs when Rafi was onscreen. He got an assist from Seth Rogen’s Dirty Randy (and Rob Huebel) and the Domination League (making us all the more excited for Dirty Randy and Rafi’s episode later this season). Here were the 17 best lines from the episode, and as always in The League discussions, if you leave a comment or share the post, you get a The League badge.

What's The Fox Say? The Most Informative Music Video Has The Answer. (1 photo + 1 video)

Please enjoy (or at least stare confusedly at) this music video, “The Fox”, from the Norwegian talk show I kveld med YLVIS. It answers the question, “What would happen if you made a schmaltzy pop song with high production values then devolved into silly animal sounds?” Nobody asked the question, but they answered it anyway. Sketch group Ylvis is the brothers Bård and Vegard Ylvisåker, who have been making surreal and funny stuff like this for the past 13 years. (Sidenote: “Bård Ylvisåker” is the Norwegianist name that’s ever Norwegianed.) Once in a while, something they make starts going viral outside Norway, like their “voice controlled elevator” pranks. This absurd video seems poised to be a crossover hit. The top YouTube comment is, “Play this at my funeral” and we’re inclined to agree.

Yahoo!'s New Logo Isn't As Good As Its Fake Ones (4 photo + 1 video)

In case you’d forgotten, or more likely hadn’t noticed, Yahoo! is rolling out a new logo today, after spending thirty days showing off “old” logos. Yes, they’ve wanted us to get excited over typefaces, and I write “us” because I’ve had a Yahoo! email address for more than a decade now. And above is the end result. First of all, it is kind of condescending to try and get us hyped up over a logo. “Here, get excited about a signifier for a brand that few people will actually care about, and as a brand, barely even qualifies as a logo!” Secondly, a month of demanding attention for this? This has an announcement video, because of course it does.

Scientists Prove Video Games Actually Keep Your Mind Sharp (2 photo)

According to a new study conducted by cognitive scientists at the University of California, your mom was totally wrong about the whole “video games rot your brain” thing. In fact, it would probably do her some good to pick up a controller herself. And it’s not just games that make iffy-sounding claims about “training your brain” that are beneficial — this latest study has found that pretty much any game that requires a lot of multitasking can make a brain think younger… Basically, the scientists at UC created their own simple video game in which you have to drive a car while paying attention to certain signs that pop up on screen. Initially younger players in their 20s did better than players in their 70s or 80s, but with a bit of training the codgers became just as good at the game as the kids. In fact, most actually became better at the game than your average 20-year-old playing it for the first time. Even more interesting, these old people continued to “think young” and function at a higher cognitive level even after the game was shut off. The effects of mastering the game also lasted for a long time — up to six months. Oh, and video games aren’t just good for dusty old-person brains either. Another study has shown that multitasking-heavy video games can also help young people ignore distractions and learn. So wait, a game where you drive a car while also paying attention to roadside distractions improves brain function? Roadside distractions like oh, I dunno, screaming pedestrians, cops and health-restoring hookers? Well, I don’t see any way around it — now that we have this new information it would be a crime against brains to not install Grand Theft Auto V in every old folks home and school in America.

Scarlett Johansson Is Marrying Not You (14 photo)

Unless, of course, you’re ScarJo’s future husband Romain Dauriac, in which case: hi, I hate you. Anyway, according to every celebrity website ever, Dauriac, a French journalist who looks comically small in this photo, recently put a ring on it, “it” being Scarlett Johansson’s finger, “Scarlett Johansson” being not my future wife. People spoke to an anonymous source who revealed, “I can confirm that Scarlett and Romain are engaged. They haven’t chosen a date for the wedding.” (At least we know the informant isn’t Ryan Reynolds.) In related news, here is an important collection of important Scarlett Johansson GIFs, which is the best we normal people are going to get for now, except for Dauriac, who gets to spend the rest of his life with a living GIF.

Watch Bill Hader's Impression Of James Franco At His Roast (1 photo + 3 video)

Bill Hader sat down with Jimmy Kimmel last night and pretty much never got up, doing an extended interview and then playing sidekick during a Richard Simmons visit. It was all great and if you’re the Hader fans we are you should watch every second. There’s getting stranded in Martha’s Vineyard at Seth Meyers’s wedding, people having sex during He Got Game, and geeking out on famous directors during “Laser Cats.” But most importantly and hilariously of all there’s Hader describing the scene at James Franco’s Comedy Central Roast and how he goes way back with James. That starts at the 1:45 mark above in Part 3 of the interview but gets top billing because it’s perfect.

Delicious Confectionery Beautifully Organized By Color (10 photo)

Who doesn’t like the odd chocolate bar or fizzy candy every now and then? Just like the rest of us, visual artist Emily Blincoe is partial to the odd sugary indulgence but whilst we’re all unwrapping and munching on them, she’s opted to create this wonderful collection of visuals titled “Sugar Series”. In it, she’s carefully selected all manner of different types of confectionary and then organised them solely by colour. Apple greens, tangy oranges, citrus yellow and raspberry red are just a few of the colour schemes she’s used. The end result is a selection of colourful boards brimming with delicious items that almost look too good to eat. You’ll be pleased to know she’s going to be producing posters of these shortly, make sure you’re the first to know by heading over to her website.
