Samurai Stormtrooper

This is a random bit of fun. First thing I thought of, was Alec Mapa's stand-up routine in which he talks about Star Wars. I tried to find the clip of his performance, but was unable to. It was on LOGO sometime ago.

Post It Notes

Things you can do with a lot of Post It notes and a lot of spare time. All joking aside, this is simply amazing, of course my first thought was...Somewhere nearby are alot of Reapers... if you don't get that joke don't freak out, I won't hold it against...this time.

Lord of the Rings Plushies

These are just so gosh darn cute! Granted only Gandolf has a mouth....but still!Photos: Nerd Approved

How To Dance

Here is a blast from the past. This is the song How To Dance, performed by the Bingo Boys featuring Princessa. This song was so much fun and the video was absolutely ridiculous. There is no real reason for me posting it, other than, I hadn't seen it in forever. I came across it again recently and it brought back great fun memories...enjoy!

Cristiano Ronaldo Armani Jeans Ad

I cannot resist posting this. There is a teaser ad for Cristiano Ronaldo's Armani Jean campaign. He looks damn sexy, that is all I care about...giggle....

Vampire Diaries Season 2 Begins

Time to kick off the new fall season. First new show (not counting Futurama, since techinically it started in summer) is Vampire Diaries. The second season premiered last night. Ok, I will be honest, I watched it. Why? Well, first off, when I start something, most of the time I feel the need to continue. And 2, no other new shows have started yet.

I got into last season, mainly because of Jasmine Guy. She just rules! But, as it always happens with awesome characters...they killed her off. Well, I am not quite sold on second season yet. Granted I was caught off guard when Damon....

oh...FYI...if you haven't figured out yet, there is about to be a spoiler...

you still reading...

ok...

...when Damon snapped Elena's brother's neck.

Katherine was featured throughout the episode. I am still not sold on her yet. I mean, I get the character and the concept is cool. But I am having a hard time with the actress playing her. I get that the two characters are related and look alike which is important. I just have a hard time with her going from sweet Elena to evil Katherine. So that is all I got. I will continue to watch it, unless something else in the time slot pops up that grabs my attention.

Evie Harris - Shinning Star

Here is a fun video of Evie Harris. Evie's biggest fan joins her as she heads out to clean her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She tells great stories from her....uh I use the term loosely, career in Hollywood. For those of you who do not know who Evie Harris is, you must watch Girls Will Be Girls. Enjoy!

The Human Pac-Man

This is just pretty darn clever. I will admit, at the beginning its a bit hard on the eyes. But once it gets going it is very enjoyable to watch.

Bad Romance

Its no big secret that I am not a huge fan of Lady Gaga. Sorry, she just doesn't do it for me. But I do enjoy this cover of her song Bad Romance. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is just so awesome. Here is his version of the song. Enjoy!

Need More Gay - Kid Stuff

Rantasmo is back. Ok let me start off with, this guy is my hero. I love watching him discuss the gay in his topics. This one is about children's programming. He talks about how conservative groups attack shows like Teletubbies and Spongebob Squarepants, yet ignore other shows with obvious gay characters. Enjoy!

Games of Thrones Teaser

Here is a teaser for the upcoming series on HBO, Games of Thrones. It is based on a series of books by George R.R. Martin. The show is set to start sometime in 2011. Enjoy!

Ellen DeGeneres Works The Runway

Things that are awesome! Here is a clip of the finale from the Richie Rich Fashion Show, Spring 2011. Make sure you pay attention to the whole clip. During the second group of models, there are some pretty smoking hot guys in some smoking hot outfits. Also, now I could be totally wrong, but I swear one of the models looks like Jujubee (RuPaul's Drag Race). Perhaps someone out there has a better eye than me and can confirm that. Anyways, Ellen DeGeneres made an appearance, and she worked that runway.

Captain America Stunt Photos

Here are some photos from the set of Captain America. If you look closely you can tell that it is not Chris Evans in the outfit. I am going to take a leap and assume that it is his stunt man, since he is riding around on a motorcycle.
