Okay, this little advert from the good folks at The Faculty of Science at the University of Copenhagen made me smile.

The Power to Create

How can you not like a super-hero team which includes Black Vulcan, Apache Chief, Juan Gigante, Jesse Jackson, and The French Tickler? Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Multi-Culture Pals:

This comes from “Very Personal Injury” my favorite episode of Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law where the poor hero is forced to sue after a coffee spill prevents him from enlarging.

Now I hated me some Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (you can read my review here). For the sake of time, and not wanting to give away major plot points, I neglected to get into too much detail on the actually plot of the movie. Those of you who are interested in a hilarious blow-by-blow rundown of the film should definitely check out Topless Robot’s take.

I will give you one word of caution as this little rant has more than it’s share of spoilers. However, if you have seen it, or a just looking for yet another reason not to, then this examination from everything of specific scenes and plot points to the reason behind the entirety of Megan Fox’s career and celebrity is a must read:

“She looks like a porn star and has the same acting talent as one, yet for some reason she makes mainstream movies. This tonal disconnect is what’s so appealing about her.”

Okay, One Crazy Summer isn’t exactly John Cusack’s finest hour (or even Demi Moore’s), but it does include this fun little animated opening featuring a lovelorn rhino, Cupid, some very mean bunnies, and a submachine gun.

The Cute & Funny Bunny Massacre

During the third season of the 60’s Batman TV-show the character of Batgirl (played by Yvonne Craig) was introduced along with her own theme song composed by Billy May.

Although the character was a regular during that final season the full song was only heard twice in “The Wail of the Siren” and “The Unkindest Tut of All.” That doesn’t mean it wasn’t memorable, or worth sharing. Enjoy!

Dancing Stormtroopers, Red Foxx, Paul Lynde, C-3P0, R2-D2, and fireworks. Wait until you see who they got to play Han Solo. No, really. Just watch.

Even if your Dad isn’t a cyborg, black belt, or the Caped Crusader himself, it’s still worth the time to take a moment and wish him a Happy Father’s Day!

The internets were all a twitter about this yesterday, but I couldn’t quite find time to share this with you. Here’s Zach Morris showing up in place of Mark-Paul Gosselar on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

Two Jimmy Fallon posts in one day is a little odd, but, at least as far as this one is concerned, “it’s alright ’cause I’m saved by the bell.”

I was actually going to post something for Aaron Sorkin or Michael J. Fox, both of whom were born on this date, but that’s before I found this little clip from Natalie Portman’s appearance on Sesame Street where she admits to Elmo her lifelong desire to be an elephant. Enjoy, and Happy Birthday Natalie!

Here’s the video of Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart” literally translated for comedic effect. We’ve had some discussion in ‘buddha offices about its quality. Our pal Eric, who found this, thinks it rocks hard, though alphamonkey thinks it’s slightly dumber as a Pauly Shore after… well, anything I guess. I’m somewhere in the middle. I think it’s a little too uneven, starting strong but losing some steam, but I’ll readily admit there are some pretty funny moments (including an army of Arthur Fonzarelli clones). What do you think?
