Who Almost Got Cast In Your Favorite Movies? [13 pics]
It's always interesting after we fall in love with a movie to learn which actors and actresses were originally cast but didn't make it into the film. I just read today that O.J. Simpson was originally cast in the first Terminator movie in 1984. Whoah!! Did someone have a premonition back then or w ...
Is Inception A Rip Off Of A McDuck Comic?
I saw Inception the other day and found that it was one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time. I enjoyed it so much that I am actually considering watching it at the cinema a second time just to get all the details right. The concept of the movie is very interesting from a multitude o ...
Zelda On Paper: Stop Motion Twist Of The Classic Game!
Zelda is one of my favorite games of all time, and I played it until I finished it back in the days of the Nintendo NES console. The excitement of this classic game is yet to be surpassed, but for now, my memories of the NES are about Zelda and Super Mario. Everything that has to do with Zelda alw ...
Another Intellectual Game Created for the Blind
Here we go again. Designer Xiang Pan recently created the next "intellectual person's game." Great. This is yet another game to make us regular people feel dumb. I get confused even reading the directions for how this is to be played; however, it looks fascinating, so I wanted to share it with y ...
Celebrate the Release of StarCraft II – Lego Style!
I used to be a huge gamer. During the summers when I was at university, my friends and I would stay up all night long for weeks playing video games. It was truly an obsession. We would only put our remotes down long enough to make a box of Kraft mac-n-cheese after we realized we hadn't eaten for ...

Inception: Explained In Infographic! [Spoiler]
It debuted as the second most successful sci-fi genre movie of all time. Only "The Matrix" scored a higher grossing first weekend. Leonardo DiCaprio certainly knows how to pick his movies. I haven't yet seen the movie myself, but it sure looks like a nice little brain twister. However, when look ...
Alien Swarm – Now Free!
Team co-op games have always been fun and in the past few years there have been a good few "greats." Borderlands and the Left 4 Dead series are perfect examples of this. These 4 player co-op games go against the forces of whatever, with plenty of guns and a large amount of either blood or goo. Fr ...
The Ultimate Karaoke Prank – Jewel Fools Everyone!
I'm probably the only person on the planet that has never seen live karaoke before. It's definitely on my to-do list; I just haven't gotten to it yet. Clips of the worst karaoke singers always seem to end up on the Internet somewhere, and they are so much fun to watch!
This one; however, is han ...
This Cardboard Warfare Video Kicks Any Action Movie’s Butt!
I think I have just seen a piece of movie history being made. It's true, and I am prepared to stand by my words. I never thought a bunch of guys running around in the woods with cardboard guns, rifles and grenades fighting each other could be so thrilling and intense. I mean, they even have a car ...
Meet Gary – The Cutest 8-Bit Costume You’ve Ever Seen
This is just the geeky kind of project that would be a dream come true for me. Wouldn't it be fun to make one of these costumes one weekend? It would make for an inspiring Saturday afternoon!
This particular 8-bit costume was created by Kiel Johnson and Klai Brown for a Toshiba commercial. Hmm ...
Microsoft .NET vs. Java – The Movie Trailer
What can I say. Sometimes the people behind these spoof/marketing ideas really do their homework and create something really cool and funny. Usually they just "do" it in order to get the money and be done with it. Left behind is a product that is boring and without any appeal whatsoever. However ...
How You Know A Drummer Is At The Wrong Gig
Usually you know when a band is complete and in perfect symbiosis. Everything about their music is great, and it's an experience just watching them perform. There are a great many bands that truly mesmerize their audiences to the point of almost ecstasy, if not all the way. Then we have bands tha ...
Share Cupcakes with Friends on FaceBook
Do you have a sweet tooth? Do you envy your friends who are great in the kitchen? I have an office mate who bakes the best cupcakes on earth. She always brings so much joy to us when she comes to work with a batch of freshly baked goodies in hand. The cupcakes are amazing. They are soft, moist ...
Nike’s Ballman vs. Coca-Cola’s Coke Man at the World Cup
I love it when big brands try to compete and outdo each other. We all get to benefit from their best creativity and originality when that happens.
Well, of course, Nike could not be outdone by Coca-Cola, right? The gigantic red Coke Man was getting a lot of attention at the World Cup until, you ...
Cartographer Creates Full Map Of LOST Island
I have to admit that I am not a LOST fanatic like so many people out there today. However, don't for a second think I am in any way dissing the show, quite the contrary. I decided early on that I wasn't going to follow LOST cause I would lose too much time and not be able to keep up the high pace ...
