| 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.
- If you have not been to the Windows 95 Tips, Tricks, and Tweaks Tumblr yet, you are missing out on something seriously disturbing and hilarious. Here is a representative sample.
- Pretty cool collection of GIFs highlighting the major characters from Return of the Jedi.
- Speaking of GIFs, I still deeply love flux machine. A couple of vaguely recent entries. That long, anxious moment as you wait for the GIF to do something creepy might be the best part.
- 72-year-old grandfather models women's clothes for his granddaughter's clothing line. Pretty bad-ass.
- Great redesign of Darth Vader.
- Here's an idea for a new James Bond film: Idris Elba as James Bond and Tom Hiddleston as the villain. All kidding aside, that would be amazing.
- Some great classic monster movies got redesigned posters on Reelizer lately. Here's The Mummy, a couple of Frankensteins, and an Invisible Man.
- You probably already saw this amazing photo floating around somewhere or other (like on any or all of my social media platforms). But have you seen the Spockified version??
- Brad Bird was forced to confirm on Twitter - numerous times! - that he is not directing Star Wars VII. Ah, well. It was a lovely dream while it lasted.
- Heh.
- Maybe people will finally wake up to the dangers of climate change when wild coffee starts going extinct? What a horrifying thought.
- Pretty amazing photo. And they went to a lot of trouble to get the shot, so worth a click.
- Fun toy roundup on Super Punch. Tis the season and so forth.
- Reimagining Snow White as an anarchist.
- A Stardust the Super Wizard action figure! There's a Kickstarter to make this a reality.

- LOLDinosaur!
- I'm kind of in love with Dan Hipp, you guys.
- In a recent comic book, Superman renounced his American citizenship, declaring himself a citizen of the world. Which makes sense to me, given how he's always facing off against potentially world-shattering threats and doesn't limit his patrols to one country. It didn't seem like that big a deal to me, actually - it's really more of a stunt that probably won't change much - but for whatever reason, the news blew up into the mainstream media and upset a lot of people (most of them conservative idiots, apparently). More importantly, it led to the creation of an inspired hashtag on Twitter.
- This has to be one of the best YouTube videos ever: every one of Hudson's lines from Aliens. (You should already know this, but the audio is NSFW.)
- I'm pretty sure I linked to this site before, ages ago, but it's worth another link: Hobbitish, featuring Hobbit-related art from around the world. (Via)
- The next James Bond film is getting about one-third of its funding from product placement: a whopping, record-breaking $45 million. I'm looking forward to the scene where Bond has a refreshing Mountain Dew instead of his signature martini.
- Check out the Geek Zodiac. I'm a Daikaiju. Godzilla FTW! (Via)
- Here is a website devoted to Fox Mulder's wristwatch. Yes, all it is is pictures and video of the character wherein his watch is visible. Somehow, even after all these years on the internet, things like this can still blow my mind. The rabbit hole is deep, my friends. (Via)
- Heh. Apparently a new Green Lantern display made to draw people into comic shops can occasionally catch fire. Definitely eye-catching!
- Details on Shatner's deleted scene in the 2009 Star Trek film.
- On May 15th, the Wii is dropping to $150, and will come bundled with Mario Kart and the Wii Wheel. Guess it's time to dump all those extra consoles now that Wii 2 is on the way!
- I enjoy Portal Tetris.
- Somebody's going for The Most Bad-Ass Tattoo Ever Award: a T-Rex with chainsaw arms!!

- A sequel to Monsters Inc. is scheduled to be released on November 16th, 2012. Good stuff! (Via)
- Dark Night Of The Soul, the musical collaboration between David Lynch, Danger Mouse, and some dude who calls himself Sparklehorse, now has a release date: July 13th. (Via)
- Fun new clips from Iron Man 2.
- The Venture Bros' awesome ode to progressive rock. YES!
- If Daniel Craig doesn't come back for the next James Bond movie (whenever that is), Sam Worthington might take his place. Man, that guy gets all the jobs anymore!
- Word has it Marvel might make a series of smaller budget films to cover some of its lesser known properties, like Dr. Strange and Luke Cage. While I'd definitely like to see a Dr. Strange movie, I'm not sure I like the idea of them throwing together a cheap film adaptation just to have one. But we'll see how this goes.
- Ridley Scott revealed some plot details for the upcoming Alien prequel in an interview with MTV. It'll be set 30 years before the first movie and focus on the story of the "space jockey" who appeared in the derelict spacecraft.
- Check out this beard trustworthiness scale. Depending on whether you interpret my beard as a "Full Beard" or a "Homeless Beard," I'm either "Very Trustworthy" or verging on "Threatening." (Via)
- A couple of cool gamer-related images.
- Fun with LEGO.
- Looks like The Last Airbender and Green Hornet are both getting converted to 3D now, too. I was all for 3D at first, but this is really getting a little ridiculous.
- Okay, now that's just kind of twisted.

- A new batch of pics from Iron Man 2.
- Pretty cool teaser trailer for the Gatchaman movie that will never be.
- Good Show Sir is a blog celebrating the worst sci-fi/fantasy book covers. Although, I think some of these are actually pretty cool... (Via)
- The anatomy of a Tribble.
- Some pretty amazing photographs of the volcanic eruption in Iceland, complete with apocalyptic lightning.
- Sam L. Jackson says the upcoming Avengers movie is mostly about his character, Nick Fury, and that he'll also be making an apperance in Captain America, but not in Thor.
- Previously the only reason to go into a 7-Eleven is if there was no Wawa nearby, but now there's another reason: they're going to start selling used video games for 20 bucks or less.
- Fans have released an updated version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl that's supposed to be more balanced with fewer opportunities for players to get cheap and take advantage of overpowered combos and the like. Supposedly you can load it up right from an SD card, without having to hack your Wii.
- This week (until Saturday) Target is offering $20 Wii, Microsoft, and PSN point cards for just $17. Good deal!
- I love these illustrations for nonexistent fairy tales.
- Looks like the rumors were true, and the James Bond franchise is on hold due to MGM's budget woes. Sad face.

- Dude, this Star Wars-ified version of Jay-Z and and Alicia Keys' "Empire State of Mind" is amazing. (Via)
- The Gorillaz have released a digital bundle of their song "Superfast Jellyfish" which includes a computer game called Escape To Plastic Beach. More at the band's website. (Via)
- I'm not entirely clear on what it is, but apparently the folks at the LHC have done something new and exciting. (Via)
- io9 has some pretty amusing guesses as to what might be in an ancient and mysterious 1,000-pound lead coffin that archaeologists unearthed on the outskirts of Rome.
- More details on that anthology of Firefly stories that's on the way.
- Another American Godzilla movie is set to be released in 2012. Hopefully it will have nothing to do with the horrifically awful 1998 Roland Emmerich version.
- Some enterprising fans couldn't wait and Photoshopped Chris Evans into the Captain America costume so we could all have a sneak peek as to what he'll look like.
- Sounds like Iron Man 3 might be coming even sooner than expected - like, even before the Avengers movie.
- More Last Airbender footage! We've got the Japanese trailer, a new American TV spot, and a silly promo for the Teen Choice Awards featuring a couple of the stars of the movie.
- A new Sorcerer's Apprentice trailer. There are a couple of dumb things in here, but a lot of cool things, too.
- An amusing comic, in which a child finds the fallacy in a popular saying, but ultimately buys into it anyway.
- A new trailer for LEGO: Harry Potter Years 1-4.
- A couple collections of links to photos of President Barack Obama looking at awesome things. (UPDATE: here's the full set!)
- How about a free download of a track off Amanda Palmer's latest insane project, an album by fictional conjoined twin pop stars Evelyn Evelyn?
- Rachel Weisz could play the main villain in the next Bond film.

- Good lord. They're going to remake the horrible MST3K Sasquatch film The Legend of Boggy Creek.
- Sounds like Bryan Singer directing X-Men: First Class isn't a done deal after all.
- Olivia Munn's original cameo in Iron Man 2 ended up being a bit too lighthearted for the film's dark tone, so they cut it out, made her an entirely different character, and shot all new scenes with her. Still no word on who she's playing, though.
- NBC just announced a new show called Camelot which will be a contemporary retelling of the King Arthur legend, written by Torchwood's former showrunner.
- Nintendo's making a DS that has 3D! And you don't need glasses to see it! How that works I don't know, but it sounds cool.
- Guile is guilty of vandalism, and there's video proof!
- Chainable USB plugs!
- Cute Star Wars illustrations.
- Here's a trailer for Blue People: The Movie.
- Wow! Warner Bros. wouldn't let Louis Leterrier make Clash of the Titans until he wrote two other movies and promised them a trilogy! They really love the franchises there.
- A review of Red Steel 2. Joystiq says it's not really a hardcore FPS, and focuses really strongly on swordplay, which sounds good to me!
- Hamlet: The Video Game is on the way. Damn it, that was my idea!
- Pretty clever James Bond/Duck Hunt mashup T-shirt. (Via)
- Cool head-shaped sculpture/building in a forest, and excellent Princess Mononoke cosplay.
- Scream 4 is finally really moving forward, maybe, with Wes Craven, Kevin Williamson, and the major cast members all on board.
- A 3D Popeye movie??
- Another fun illustration for A Wrinkle in Time.
- Nice Street Fighter II tattoo!
- You may think a bouquet of red roses says love, but no! The true symbol of love is a bouquet of bacon.
- A sweet Batmobile limo and a cool list of the top five expanded universe Star Wars stories, which includes one of my favorite episodes of Clone Wars. (Via)
- Hey, nice art. (Via)

- Above is OK Go's latest music video, and it just might be the best thing ever. I watched it with my jaw dropped open and chills running up and down my spine. (Via)
- A fantastic image: Darth Vader riding a cat. (Via)
- First, here's some behind-the-scenes stuff on Iron Man 2, plus a clip from the actual movie (albeit in French). Next, here's some analysis of said clip claiming that Thor appears in the background of one shot. This seems unlikely - why would Thor be in a jail in Monaco? - but you never know.
- Robert McCall died recently, and as a tribute to him, io9 has posted a small gallery of his stunning space art.
- The Hobbit could be going 3D, and Tron Legacy might pull a Dark Knight and have five sequences shot exclusively for IMAX.
- Roland Emmerich is trying to calm the worries of fans over his upcoming film adaptation of the Foundation novels, claiming that he wants to "give people exactly what the Foundation trilogy is." He also mentions how disappointing I, Robot was (and yeah, it really, really was - good lord, what a crappy movie) and how he wants to avoid those mistakes. Emmerich also says he wants to use 3D and motion-capture, a la Avatar, to make the movie. After reading these comments, I still don't feel safe, but I feel better. At least Emmerich doesn't think I, Robot was awesome.
- Dude spent three years building Minas Tirith out of matches. It's a thing to behold.
- More Super Punch Tarot cards!
- It's Christopher Nolan Bat-Week at Springfield Punx!
- 30 awesome, rare Star Wars photos. (Via)
- Radio 4 in the UK is airing a radio version of Goldfinger in which Ian McKellen will play the title character. Cool.
- Comics blogger extraordinaire Chris Sims and friends have launched a new web comic called Awesome Hospital. It's taking its time getting started, but I have high hopes.

- Above, enjoy a truly fantastic and hilarious deleted scene from Terminator 3. (Via)
- Speaking of great video sequences featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger, check out the beautiful opening montage from Commando, embedded in this Cinematical post. If it's wrong to love Commando, I don't want to be right.
- The Dune remake has a new, non-Peter Berg director, and it is the guy who did Taken, Pierre Morel. Which reminds me, I still have to see Taken one of these days.
- Two great T-shirt designs on Threadless feature Sesame Street characters as battling kaiju monsters, and hills which are alive.
- The next James Bond movie has been delayed dude to MGM's financial woes.
- And finally, because Recyclotron is a little light today, here's a collection of fun links I posted on Twitter recently which you might have missed.
