Infomercials from the 90’s were really odd. A commercial that bought up enough screen time that it is essentially disguised as a one-off show used to shill that product. The following ‘Absolute Rose Street’ was there to help push the Sega 32X peripheral to Genesis owners is just that. Weird. But also very nostalgic in […]
Sesame Street has really upped their game over the last few years. Adding pure satire and parody that is clearly aimed at parents more than the children. Recently, they did a spoof of the brilliant Michael Keaton masterpiece, Birdman, and though you will have to have seen the movie to understand how well it fits, […]
It is hard to not get sucked into the twisted yet enchanting world of Adventure Time. From its zany cast of characters to its complicated and somewhat adult story lines, it is a show that can appeal to all. And what better way to represent that fevered fandom than with some Adventure Time themed boots […]
Many of us who grew up in the seventies and eighties were big Flash Gordon fans. The movie was hokey and silly and out-there (literally), but that is what made it just a blast. What is insane to discover is that the Flash Gordon was actually second out of the box (and the seemingly less […]

PixelStorm Films with Joe Murayama put together this dazzling short of what it would be like for a young man to walk through the evolution of gaming over the years. From Mario to Minecraft, it’s all here, and makes me wish I was the dude walking through it. [H/T to LaughingSquid]
Though it took nine months of work, this Millennium Falcon modded into a record player is one of the coolest things ever. Not only was the shape already perfect to be re-purposed, but the extra parts cost to make this Star Wars toy into a working record player cost around two dollars. Not even kidding […]
Eclectic Method are an audio-visual team who just went and did something awesome (or hugely sacrilegious depending on how you view certain classics). They added subtitles to the various beeps and whistles of R2-D2 from the Star Wars films. While it may sound like a one-off joke, they give him a bubbling personality and it […]
It was a great year to be a geek in terms of TV. From Arrow to Agents of SHIELD, there was much geek fodder to be had and enjoyed by all. But what were the ULTIMATE nerdy moments from TV from last year? ToplessRobot put together this (SPOILER FILLED) list of the nerdiest TV moments […]
