Fëanor pours the entire internet into the Recyclotron, and only the best links come out the other end for you to enjoy.
- I am seriously loving Animals With Lightsabers, you guys. The video above comes from this post, and here's a great image that recently blazed across the internet, now lightsaberized.
- The headline is "Banana Thief in Gorilla Suit Not Charged." The story itself doesn't really make things any clearer. (Via)
- A wookiee with a puppy. (Via)
- Need some white noise? Here you go. (Via)
- Kanye West interrupting Taylor Swift at the MTV VMAs blew up into a meme pretty much instantly. Here are a few collections of amusing parodies/mashups. You can also have Kanye interrupt your site using kanyelicio.us (via). Check it out.
- The 25 greatest cult TV shows ever. Some good ones in here, like The Tick, Buffy, Doctor Who, The Prisoner, Firefly, The X-Files, Venture Brothers, Veronica Mars, Farscape, MST3K and Police Squad. I don't really understand why I love Police Squad so much, and yet at the same time dislike the Naked Gun movies, but there you go. (Via)
- A review of the script for Joss Whedon's The Cabin in the Woods. I started reading it, since I was promised it would have no spoilers, but it kind of does, so then I stopped. But I think they liked it. (Via)
- Dollhouse promo photo outtakes. They're not the funny, "Oops, I fell over!" kind of outtakes. They're just more, perfectly good photos that they apparently didn't use for some reason. (Via)
- Using giant light cannons to decorate mountains! Awesome. (Via)
- A brilliant, wonderfully understated poster for Jurassic Park.
- Tim Burton is trying to reassure people that his Alice in Wonderland will be perfectly tasteful and Disney-fied. Ugh. I hope he's wrong, or lying!
- Ridley Scott and John Logan, the director and writer who teamed up for Gladiator, might re-team to adapt a vampire novel to film. Cool!
- I'm shamefully excited about The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Here are a couple video previews of the theme park. There better be a lake with a giant squid in it, or I'm gonna want my money back! Finally, although io9's article about the park doesn't really contain any new information, it does have a truly priceless picture of Putin shaking hands with Dobby, and so I link to it.
- Super Punch is doing a new art contest: the horror of Star Wars.
- Cool Darkseid action figure.
- Looks like Jessica Biel is joining the A-Team.
- The first five minutes of Brutal Legend. \m/
- Wonderful Muppets/Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas mashup. (Via)
- Somebody made a song out of the "WHOSE RESPONSIBLE THIS?" meme. It's pretty good! (Via)
- Pretweeting is a game where you buy and sell stock in Twitter trends. (Via)
- A new clip about Surrogates.
- Bunnies, available in three different levels of fuzziness.
- Dinosaur van.
- Facebook has over 300 million users, and is now making enough money to cover its costs. Meanwhile, Twitter was valued at $1 billion and picked up another $50 million in venture capital. Wait a minute... you can make money on the internet??
- The cover, and the alternate cover, for an upcoming one-shot Buffy comic focusing on Willow. One of the covers features a naked lesbian embrace! Huzzah!
- Proof has been found that Earth-like planets can exist outside our solar system. Sweet! Now we just need to figure out a good way to emigrate to one of them before this planet becomes completely uninhabitable.
- Cute Overload has found the ultimate puppy video, and some fantastic animated gifs.
- Video of the D23 presentation about the revamping of Star Tours, including a thrilling video preview of what the ride will be like. They included that bit of the Star Wars soundtrack that gives me chills every time, so I'm sold.
- Dude killed a robber with a samurai sword. I knew there had to be a practical reason to own a sword!
- A video tour of the Marvel Entertainment offices, hosted by editor-in-chief Joe Quesada. (Via)
- Check out this 90-second teaser of the Fringe season premiere, which airs tonight. Exciting! (Via)
- These must have been difficult and painful to pick out: author Dan "Da Vinci Code" Brown's 20 worst sentences. (Via Dan)
- A video playlist of Mythbusters' 10 strangest myths.
- Dude, you get to have a lightsaber when you become president? I totally made the wrong career choice.
- I've posted a number of these My Little Pony superhero mods before, but some of them are new to me, and they're all cool, so... (Via)
- D&D: The Soda. (Via)
- Scientists have cured monkeys of color blindness via gene therapy. (Via)
- Did you know all these people were doing voices for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs? It's a crazy group of celebs.
- Cool concept art that imagines mutant bugs taking over Moscow's subway system.
- "Future Space Explorers Could Commute On Interplanetary Gravity Highways." Sweet!
- Future visions of today's cities. Dude, where's Philly?
- The top 10 most corrupt mayors from science fiction.
- Mostly positive reviews of Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2.
- Awesome custom toys. (Via)
- LEGO paper and pencil, and LEGO "This is not a pipe."
- Plush mounted animal heads.
- Illustrations of unusual ways in which curiosity could kill a cat. (Via)
- Scientists could theoretically create quantum creatures in the lab - in other words, make a living thing do two different things at the same time. Woah. (Via)
- Now you can order pizza from your PS3. This is a huge step forward in human evolution, people.
- Google has a plan to let you custom-print millions of public domain books. Very cool.
- As everyone knows, there's a ton of music on the internet. But is there an easy way to access it all? Wired found some cool sites in that vein.
- An extremely useful web page, especially today (which has been declared Talk Like Jabba the Hutt Day by Agent_M): the Jabba the Hutt Soundboard! (Via)
- The dollar bill has a Legend of Zelda Easter Egg! (Via)
