Fëanor pours the entire internet into the Recyclotron, and only the best links come out the other end for you to enjoy.
- I'm thinking a lot more people would use the Microsoft error-reporting dialog if it worked like it does in this video. Although seeing as how I'm a developer myself, the idea of people being punished by remote users for every bug they write into a piece of code is as terrifying as it is amusing. (Via Howard)
- Apparently Frank Miller is on Twitter and tweeted enigmatically the other day that something called "DINOSAUR" is coming this week. I've mostly lost faith in Mr. Miller, but I have to admit this has me a bit intrigued.
- Seven new clips from Wolfman. Some pretty big spoilers here - you see the creature and everything - so maybe don't watch these if you want to stay pure for the movie. For my own part, having watched these clips, I'm not as excited for the movie anymore. It doesn't really look that great. Corny dialog and not very impressive performances; apparently Anthony Hopkins just set himself to auto-creep mode.
- Let's Be Friends Again is not always funny, but this one is pretty good.
- Samuel L. Jackson is creating his own comic called Cold Space, a four-issue sci-fi/action miniseries for Boom! Studios. It's about "an opportunist who crash lands on a planet in the midst of a civil war, discovering a way to play both factions against each other for his own personal gain." Celebrity forays into comics are not often good, but this sounds like fun.
- It seems like you can never have enough USB ports! But maybe you can now with this 80-port USB panel.
- Here's a machine that turns extra office paper into toilet paper. Okay then.
- Yay, the Razzie nominees are out! I stand fully behind the nomination of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen for worst picture of 2009. (Via)
- Sci Fi Wire put together a list of 9 underrated, overlooked sci-fi and fantasy films of 2009. Some of these look pretty fascinating.
- New Diablo III screenshots!
- Some fun fake Garbage Pail Kid sketch cards. (Via)
- Fun with LEGO.
- Every time I give up on Clone Wars, I start hearing great things about it again. For instance, the show recently featured a cubist painting of the Queen of Mandalore, and the Star Wars version of Guernica, which depicts the Mandalorian War against the Old Republic Jedi.
- A site called Little White Lies is running an interesting art contest to promote the movie Kick-Ass: the entrant is asked to reduce his favorite film to six comic book panels. (Via)
- Plush Lion-O.
- Interesting new pics from Alice in Wonderland.
- Okay, the trailer for the Wall Street sequel is pretty good. (Via)

 by Hulk |
Hulk getting ready to face-off against new supervillain: Screen of Death! Hulk understand Screen of Death hangs out around windows, so that's where Hulk will look for him.
UPDATE: Hulk just received new information. Apparently original supervillain was named Blue Screen of Death, but now there is new one called Black Screen of Death. Supervillains are always doing that. |

Fëanor pours the entire internet into the Recyclotron, and only the best links come out the other end for you to enjoy.
By the way, beware clicking through to io9 today. They have a really evil ad for the video game Fairytale Fights on the site that repeatedly opens a pop-up window, whether you have a pop-up blocker on or not. To stop the ad, right-click it, and uncheck "Play." I was actually vaguely interested in Fairytale Fights, but now I hate it on principle.
- It is perhaps childish, but I found the above altered clip from Star Wars to be absolutely hilarious. (Via)
- Marvel superhero ski masks! (Via)
- Check out the rather horrific I FEAR THE EIGHTIES illustration series. (Via)
- Odd and unsettling story about a teen found in Times Square with amnesia. All she can remember is a passage from the fantasy novel Fool's Fate by Robin Hobb. (Via Mike)
- The movie version of the A-Team! Looking pretty snazzy. (Via)
- A slideshow of the best landscape photography of the year. (Via)
- Check out The Book Cover Archive. That's a lot of book covers! (Via)
- A report from the set of the Game of Thrones pilot, complete with pics. (Via)
- 100 amazing futuristic design concepts. (Via)
- These are awesome. I think Griffin needs one. (Via)
- Summer Glau's in a Western called The Legend of Hell's Gate: An American Conspiracy. It's about the adventures of three outlaws on the run in 1876. (Via)
- "In an effort to push consumers toward buying more movies, some major film studios are considering a new policy that would block DVDs from being offered for rental until several weeks after going on sale." D'oh. Considering how long it takes me to get it together and watch movies these days, this really has no effect on me, but I can see how it would be irksome to other film fans. It feels like another wrong-headed, desperate move by a crumbling empire that wants a changing world to go back to the way it used to be. (Via)
- Extremely cute knitted Cookie Monster, with cookies. (Via)
- Photos from the Lucasfilm Halloween party. (Via)
- 14 types of Twilight Zone endings. (Via Dan)
- Brutal Mario sounds like a fantastic, postmodern hack of Super Mario World. (Via)
- 4 reasons why zombies and superheroes don't mix.
- The first eight minutes of V. This reminds me a lot of the first episode of FlashForward - intercutting between different characters and situations while slowly building to the shocking, world-changing event. Fun bit: Jesus almost kills a guy! I also like the kid who trashes Independence Day. Overall pretty good.
- Amusing comic book/newspaper strip mashups.
- 5 US presidents best equipped to handle an alien invasion.
- Dreamworks is moving ahead with its plans for a live-action English-language version of Ghost in the Shell. It'll also be in 3D. Nice.
- 12 unfinished sci-fi novels the folks at io9 wish they could read.
- io9 gives Astro Boy a surprisingly positive review.
- io9 shows you how to update your boring old Halloween costumes.
- The crazy doubled-up Dollhouse schedule for December. I'm glad they're taking into account the fact that I'll be busy writing a novel in November and are simply not airing any episodes that month.
- Rob Zombie's Where the Wild Things Are. Yep, pretty much.
- Yet another casting rumor for Fury Road, the next Mad Max film: Sam Worthington.
- Baby wombat in a box!
- A video collecting all Windows start up and shut down noises from 3.1 to Vista.
- Dinosaur arm shirts! A related, and extremely important, scientific question is answered: no, a human could not beat a T. Rex in arm wrestling.
- Two German scientists say they've broken the speed of light by sending microwave photons instantaneously between a pair of prisms via a phenomenon called quantum tunneling, "which allows sub-atomic particles to break apparently unbreakable laws." I don't understand even one small part of that, but it sounds awesome.
- Video of an experiment demonstrating the principle behind superconducting trains. Cool!
- 13 kick-ass moments from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Some good picks, although I have to disagree with "Spike goes soul-searching" (I hated that Joss played the "vampire-with-a-soul" card a second time), "Buffy the Turok-Han Slayer" (one of the low points of the series, in my opinion, as Buffy defeats a vampire she previously could not defeat by... fighting it again. Uh... what?), and the destruction of Sunnydale (pretty much everything in that final episode is crap).
- Harlan Ellison won that lawsuit over that Star Trek episode. But the really important bit of information in this article is that there exists a talking Guardian of Forever Christmas ornament. WANT.
- One cool thing about those Microsoft stores: they "allow shoppers to order a Games for Windows title, leave their name with a customer service representative, then have the game, case, insert and other accouterments printed on the spot in under four minutes."
- Another item somebody could buy me for Christmas: the figurehead from Golden Voyage of Sinbad. C'mon, it's only $20,000! And move quick, because the auction'll be over in a few days. (Via)
- Cereal taxonomy. Also, a genetically engineered life form recovered from Howard Hughes' underground research vault. (Via)
- An interesting meta-list of the best comics of 2008. The list is on a blog with the horrific title "I Love Rob Liefeld," but thankfully the author's taste does not appear to have been taken into account when assembling the list. (Via)
- The third item at this link makes me feel better about America: Bill O'Reilly gets really terrible ratings.
- Here's someone dressed as a woman in a Roy Lichtenstein painting. Pretty brilliant. (Via)
- Fantastic animated Klingon propaganda video. Most people agree it's probably a viral ad for something - either a video game or a movie - but it's still awesome.
- Compelling evidence that Keanu Reeves is immortal.
- The Shining as a Yahoo! Travel hotel review.
- I know from painful experience that this web comic is absolutely true.
- Rumor has it that Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio might star in a remake of The Third Man. I'm pretty tolerant of remakes, to the extent that I'd actually be vaguely interested in this project, if it weren't for the involvement of Tobey Maguire. I can't imagine who he'd play in The Third Man.
- A 10-foot long great white shark was bitten nearly in half by something twice its size. Probably another shark, some claim. But we all know it was a giant sea monster. (Via)
- The top 10 laws of the internet. (Via Sarah)
- Warren Ellis is launching a new project: the T-shirt of the week.
- Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman are trying to get a Doc Savage movie made. They've hired Shane Black to write the script.
- Download a track by The Little Death for free. It's quite good!
- Check out this trailer for Season of the Witch. Looks pretty cool, although the fact that it stars Nicolas Cage probably means it will suck.
- Sherlock Holmes poster premiere.
- Interesting thing: a graphic history of newspaper circulation over the last two decades. (Via)
- Lightsaber laser pointers. (Via)
- There is no proof that Tom Cruise can walk. (Via)
- Everybody wins! Not. (Via)
- A riveting and horrifying story about how a 15-year-old girl may have recorded the last transmissions of Amelia Earhart. (Via)
- Great portrait of J. Jonah Jameson. (Via)
- Listen to the latest track from Them Crooked Vultures. (Via)
- Video of a ridiculously cool, gigantic, animatronic monster suit. (Via)
- The five scariest episodes in TV (via), and 31 classic Halloween TV episodes and specials (via). Love the picks for the scariest TV episodes, mainly because they include "Nightmare," a fantastic episode of The Outer Limits.
- io9 says that Star Wars horror novel, Death Troopers, is good. However, the passage quoted here doesn't sound very good to me...
- 25 of the scariest science experiments ever conducted.
- Edward James Olmos talks about The Plan.
- Seriously cool clips from a fan-made Doctor Who anime. The third Doctor is hardcore.
- The Isaac Asimov estate has authorized a prequel trilogy set in the Robot/Foundation universe.
- Stephen King is collaborating on a new vampire comic book. There's also that Dr. Horrible one-shot on the way.
- Amusing Wolverine T-shirt.
- Fun illustrations.
- Is that a cabinet full of eldritch horrors, or are you just happy to see me?
- The seven best villain/hero romances. Heh. Nice picks.
- Matt Damon and Josh Brolin are in talks to join Jeff Bridges in the Coen brothers' remake of True Grit.
- Unsurprisingly, Lucasfilm says the rumor of a new 3D Star Wars trilogy is false. (Via)
- The Last Supper made out of Rubik's Cubes. (Via)
- Trailer for a samurai-in-space movie called Cup of Tears.
- The next obvious step: the Three Worf Moon shirt.
- Google Wave will have an app store.

| Recyclotron |
| by Fëanor |
Fëanor pours the entire internet into the Recyclotron, and only the best links come out the other end for you to enjoy.
- A glimpse of the new TARDIS interior.
- Various charts about space, spaceships, and monsters!
- Here's a fascinating study about how people with extreme opinions reinforce their opinions. Love the graphic.
- io9 picks some B-string monsters that deserve a turn in the limelight.
- Tons of pics and a new trailer for The Wolfman. WOW. This looks GREAT!
- Crazy pumpkins with steampunk and Twitter (via) themes.
- The rumor flying around the internet lately is that George Lucas is planning a brand new Star Wars trilogy that would be filmed in 3D and directed by folks like Steven Spielberg and Francis Ford Coppola. I feel like this might have come out of somebody misunderstanding Lucas' plans to re-release the original trilogy in 3D, but hey, you never know. Despite everything that happened with the prequels, I have to admit, I'd totally go see new Star Wars movies - especially if they were directed and/or written by someone other than Lucas.
- Video of a dude launching an anvil with gunpowder. Awesome.
- Here's a website all about a really big LEGO castle. (Via)
- Impressive stop-motion video of someone building a large papercraft model of Link.
- Really cool chart of every mission to Mars.
- Sci Fi Wire provides 8 reasons why Cirque du Freak isn't your usual vampire movie. But Roger Ebert is exceedingly unimpressed by the film (via).
- Pics from Trent Reznor's wedding. (Via)
- Stream entries from the European film archives for free. And legally, even. (Via)
- The worst and weirdest vampire merchandise. The baby doll is horrifying, but the glow-in-the-dark Blacula soap is kind of awesome. (Via)
- No more Dollhouse until December after tomorrow night (via). Lame! Although, it does make it easier for me to catch up... Anyway, Joss says not to worry.
- Portable ultrasound?! Wow! (Via)
- Amusing Queen album cover parody featuring monsters. (Via)
- Zombie SNES!
- The Windows 7 Whopper, with 7 beef patties (via). Yes, apparently this is a real thing. Good lord. While we're talking Windows 7, here's another amusing parody of that horrible Windows 7 party infomercial: Hosting Your Windows 7 Torrenting Party (via). I think my favorite part is the very last line of dialog. Other Windows 7 links include Wired's positive review of the OS and 7 things you should know about it from Gadget Lab. Also vaguely related: a look at those Microsoft retail stores. Turns out they're a lot like Apple's retail stores. That's just sad.
- Pretty impressive music video which autotunes quotes from various famous TV shows and movies to turn them into rhyming lyrics for a catchy techno track. (Via)
- Sounds like George R.R. Martin might get a cameo in the Game of Thrones pilot. (Via)
- A speed bump that raises or lowers depending on your speed.
- A first look at the rich kids' academy in Caprica.
- The Big Bang Theory will feature a cameo from a (possibly nude!) Katee Sackhoff! Man, I really am going to have to start watching that show at some point, aren't I?
- Looks like there might not be another Pirates movie after all. This does not upset me.
- What if there was a Twilight-ified version of The Creature from the Black Lagoon? It might look a little something like this. (Via)
- Awesome furniture!
- Another fun Where the Wild Things Are contest: customize the fur-covered edition.
- A bunch of fun downloadable masks.
- Vintage Masters of the Universe paintings.
- Weird links from Warren Ellis: humans are still evolving, scientists know how body part regeneration works now, and Balloon Boy's father wanted TV fame before the world ends in 2012. Well I'm glad staring the apocalypse in the face really put his priorities in order!
- Google is also making a search deal with Twitter.
- Flickr has Facebook-style people-tagging now.
- A new study shows that "iPhone users are three times more likely to Tweet or Facebook their sexual antics than BlackBerry users." Good to know.
- Set footage from the A-Team movie, and some small hints about the plot.
- Ralph Fiennes, William Hurt, Vanessa Redgrave, Jessica Chastain, and Gerard Butler will all star in a new movie version of Shakespeare's Coriolanus.
- Some intriguing bits of news from cast member Willem Dafoe about John Carter of Mars.
- Cool robot art.
- The theme to Ghostbusters recreated entirely by a dude multitracking himself doing all the singing and sounds. Brilliant and hilarious.
- A short film called The Wall based on A Song of Ice and Fire. (Via)
- A truly excellent Star Trek accessory. (Via)
- Dude, Trent Reznor did a Fringe promo (via)! It's a combo nearly as tasty as peanut butter and chocolate. Oh, and guess who else likes Fringe? Simon Pegg (via)!
- Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron (!) are both being considered for the lead role in the next Mad Max.
- Woah. LED eyelashes. (Via)
- Freaking awesome art, featuring Batman, Robin, Superman, and a Vogon. (Via)

- Zombie candy corn! (Via)
- 10 shows you have to watch to understand the world. (Via)
- The 10 top pop culture vampires. (Via)
- Them Crooked Vultures are finally putting out an album! You can preorder it now! It even comes with a T-shirt! (Via)
- Whoops: Google book scans with fingers in them. (Via)
- This is great: interactive map of The Village. (Via)
- The best and weirdest costumes added to io9's Flickr set.
- The top ten robots for boys from sci-fi movies and TV shows. I'll have to remember these.
- Blue Screen of Death belt buckle.
- Cool custom toys: A Clockwork Orange Playmobil figure, steam locomotive Optimus Prime, and Roland Deschain of The Dark Tower action figure. (Via)
- Speaking of The Dark Tower, supposedly Damon Lindelof has decided he doesn't want to be involved in making it into a movie because he loves it too much and he doesn't want to screw it up. Huh. Now I kind of want him to do it. (Via)
- Cool SEGA lighters.

| Recyclotron |
| by Fëanor |
Fëanor pours the entire internet into the Recyclotron, and only the best links come out the other end for you to enjoy.
- Above please find embedded a jaw-droppingly imaginative and beautiful stop-motion animation/painting project called COMBO. In case you're put off by the length, don't worry; it starts repeating itself part way through. (Via)
- Kitty, put that down this instant! (Via)
- FREAKOUT! (Via)
- Disturbing video of those crazy dust storms in Australia. (Via)
- Map of the US visualized by distance to the nearest McDonalds. Some might find this horrifying, but it's vaguely comforting to me to know there'll always be one close by. (Via)
- Entertainment Tonight is airing a report from the set of Iron Man 2 tonight; you can check out a teaser video here.
- Huh. AT&T actually made some pretty good guesses about the future back in 1993.
- The latest in the ISS' series saluting great moments in villainy honors a scene from a movie that's near and dear to my heart: Angel Eyes gleefully killing the guys who hired him to kill each other in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. There's a lot of intense soup-eating in that movie. And some great music cues.
- Joystiq spots a giant FAIL in a Wall Street Journal article.
- There could be more Metroid Prime games in our future.
- A couple of great Where the Wild Things Are mashup images.
- A gallery of old-fashioned sex toys. Most are unrecognizable as such, but still probably NSFW.
- Apparently the only way to get to Ocean City anymore is via Bat-Missile. I'll have to remember that.
- The main players have now been cast in David Fincher's Facebook flick The Social Network, and they are Jesse Eisenberg, Justin Timberlake, and Andrew Garfield. TIMBERLAKE! I kind of love that guy.
- A life-size model of R2-D2 remodeled to contain eight different gaming consoles.
- This appears to be an old post, but it was new to me: The A.V. Club describes in sickening detail what it was like to cook and eat cheeseburger-in-a-can. (Via)
- A video describing an interesting new bit of online software: Google Sidewicki. (Via)
- Consumerist puts my feelings about those ridiculous HD sunglasses into words. Hilarious words!
- Coyote/wolf hybrids!
- New Scientist is holding a short short story contest: 350 words about life 100 years in the future. I entered yesterday! I don't think my entry has any chance of winning, but it was an interesting project to undertake, and the first straight-up fiction writing I've done in a long time. Good practice for that Great American Novel I plan to produce one of these days... (Via)
- The top 20 mispronounced words. I think I've only ever heard one or two of these mispronounced, but then again, this list seems to have been put together after a survey of Britons, and I don't talk to many of those.
- When I first heard that SEPTA passes were divided into male and female versions, I thought it was a joke. Not only is it a pointless and stupid policy, it's also discriminatory. I don't know how much difference a petition will make, but it's certainly worth the couple of seconds it takes to sign it.
- I am extremely excited about the news that Cinematic Titanic is having a 3-movie marathon at the Keswick on New Year's Eve. Poppy and I are going! Who's with us??
- I already thought the very idea of Microsoft's Windows 7 launch parties was cheesy and lame. I mean, a Microsoft OS launch party?? C'mon! But Microsoft has taken things to a new level of lame with this painfully awful infomercial for the launch parties (via). It's like watching your grandma try to rap for six minutes straight. It's stupefying. It may be the most pathetically lame thing ever put on film. As this fellow points out (via), there is no living person to whom this video would actually appeal. It is made of fake, and also of FAIL. Thankfully, a parody has already been created (via).
- The first 25 pages of Neil Gaiman's Odd and the Frost Giants, free to read online. So far a very fun fairy tale/fantasy adventure story. (Via)
- Hmm. Iain M. Bank's Transition sounds like an interesting book. Dimension-hopping assassins!
- io9 talks to director Jonathan Mostow about Surrogates (he answers my first question about the surrogate process: how do the real humans not get bed sores or other worse physical problems from lying around in bed all day? The beds constantly stimulate their muscles), and then lists the 10 best robot bodies to load your brain into. Love the reference to a particularly weird episode of the original The Outer Limits, "The Brain Of Colonel Barham."
- There's water on the moon!!
- The trailer for the Where the Wild Things Are video game. It doesn't look that bad! It doesn't look that good, either, but it could be worse.
- Keanu Reeves says the current draft of the script for Cowboy Bebop would cost too much to film. Which, let's be honest, is probably good news.
- A unique game of Tetris (or Fivetris?) featuring skateboarders wearing neon hats.
- A video compilation that reveals the essential plot device in any modern horror movie: no cell phone signal!
- David Cronenberg is remaking his own reimagining of the original The Fly. Okay then.
- Pretty exciting news: David Goyer, writer of The Dark Knight, is in early talks to write the next Ghost Rider movie. Unfortunately it sounds like it will still star Nicolas Cage, but hey, you can't have everything.
- Apparently this motion-controller thing is a hit: the PlayStation motion-coller is on track for a Spring 2010 release, and anybody who's anybody is already actively working on games for Project Natal.
- New Super Mario Bros. Wii is coming November 15th, the Wii is officially dropping in price to $200, and a new Wii bundle may be available soon with both Wii Sports games and Wii MotionPlus.
- Heh.
- Bryan Singer's next project: Jack the Giant Killer. The story sounds a bit different from the old fairy tale: "a princess is kidnapped, threatening a long-standing peace between men and giants. A young farmer is given an opportunity to lead a dangerous expedition to the giants' kingdom in hopes of rescuing her." (Via)
- A video of Thom Yorke's contribution to a Mark Mulcahy tribute album. I have to admit I don't know who Mark Mulcahy is, but I always like new Thom Yorke music. And the video is incredibly powerful.
- Sony picked up the rights to make a Masters of the Universe movie. So that could still happen. Yay?
- Yet more startling technology for making the blind see: how about a microchip in your eye?
- A truly brilliant and hilarious image. Infinite riffs!! (Via)
- A trailer for Law Abiding Citizen, the film that will open the 18 1/2 Philadelphia Film Festival, coming October 15th-19th. I'm monumentally confused and frustrated by the various competing film societies and festivals that exist in Philadelphia since the festocalypse earlier this year, but this movie looks like it might be fun, and it's set in Philly, so depending on what else is playing at the fest, I might go check it out. (Via)
- More Game of Thrones casting news! Rory McCann will play Sandor Clegane. I don't think I've see Mr. McCann in anything, but he's quite tall and slightly dumb-looking (no offense, Mr. McCann), so he seems like a good choice.
