Marvel Comics launches robot Avengers title
I find this concept to be horrifically boring and like one of those old concepts they refuse to acknowledge they did multiple times already. “Springing out of the increasingly razor-thin crawlspace between the organic and synthetic worlds comes ‘Avengers A.I.’,” said Axel Alonso, Editor In Chief, Marvel Entertainment. “When one of the Marvel Universe’s preeminent …

break 13 is just NFL Evolution
This NFL Evolution advertisement is brilliant as they animate the changes in the pro football uniform. I don’t use the term “brilliant” lightly.

#Doritos advertisement involves manipulative children and cross-dressing. Calvin Klein is unwatchable to me. There was a car ad I think and I blinked. The cars.com ad with the wolves is great… especially the “incredibly protective mother”

break 05 – end of First Quarter
Another Fast and Furious movie…. what is this the sixth one? it almost looks like a G.I. Jo movie or a XXX chapter. Fast & Furious 6 Now we have a Toyota ad with Kaley Kuoco. It is a RAV4 ad and it pulls you in. Robin Sparkles 4… How I Met Your Mother ad….

Oz The Great and Powerful movie trailer…. is fine. This Coke ad is cheerful. Bleh. “Just a Litle Bit” The Oreo ad set in a library is violent. I love it. “Cream or Cookie”. I won’t watch the Grammy awards this year… I don’t believe.

Pepsi Next commercials causes catastrophic house party as the parents walk in. The so-called twist is predictable as the parents drink the Pepsi and are suddenly tolerant. Amy Poehler annoys me in the Best Buy ad. #InfiniteAnswers The second Budweiser Golden Crown ad may entertain me but it shares the same music as the opening …

Hyundai ad between coin toss and kick-off
Hyundai advertisement about a road trip and chasing and running. It reminds me of Doctor Who for that reason. I don’t recognize the band or the music in the background. Now the game starts.

I must ask…
I just watched Tim Burton’s “Alice In Wonderland” because I was clearing out the DVR. (We had gotten a free movie channels weekend, which offered me a great opportunity to fill the DVR with movies I would never pay to see like Alice in Wonderland, Predators, Transformers 2, The Sorceror’s Apprentice, etc.) I found “Alice” …

Why Kurt Busiek rocks more than most
At SpringCon, I happened to pick up Superman #668-670 in a cheapo bin. A storyline entitled “The Third Kryptonian” written by Kurt Busiek, it’s probably one of the more fun Superman stories that I’ve read in a while. I should explain: I had bought some Superman comics prior to 1986, but from John Byrne’s reboot …

ABC interviews CBS actor Charlies Sheen
I don’t like watching the show. I have watched it. That is not important now. I am on a drug. It’s called Charlie Sheen. It’s not available because if you try it once, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body. What is important is that …

peel back the skin? They don’t look so animated anymore!
I like this: “Realistic Anatomies of Cartoon Characters“. Note that the “Sylvester the Cat” skull is another photo of Bugs Bunny’s skull, as cats don’t have buck teeth, Sylvester has canines. The skeleton models are by Hyung Koo Lee and yes is the most impressive of the bunch but there are a diversity of subjects, …

Microsoft Kinect hacked to expand its use
Oliver Kreylos reverse-engineered the recently-released Microsoft motion-tracking camera hardware “to capture video in 3D… Kreylos says that only with one camera it was not possible to capture all angles necessary for a full 3D reconstruction. Yet again Microsoft hardware proved its worth where it can be used well beyond its specifications and its scope of …

So…is that the end of Homestar Runner?
The Brothers Chaps have never made it official, but it is looking like Homestar Runner is over. So far in 2010, following the birth of a new girl, they have posted a message that their production schedule would be infrequent due to the new baby…and followed that with only one new April Fools cartoon and …
