    Star Wars May Get a Teaser Trailer This Weekend

    Well, if there's one thing JJ Abrams is good at, it's overhyping mediocre movies. I mean, we're getting a teaser over a full year before the release date. An exclusive limited-theater-only teaser, even. If that's not overhyping, I don't what is.

    P.T. Gets the Minecraft Treatment

    As far as Minecraft re-creations go, a single hallway with a corner isn't exactly the most difficult build. Sure, it's accurate, just not all that impressive compared to Columbia or Spirited Away.

    Honolulu to Build Nation's First Fully Automated Transit System

    I'm pretty sure Las Vegas has an automated monorail. I remember hearing that onboard the train when I was out there a few years ago.

    7 Famous Warships That Ruled the Modern Seas

    Along similar lines, the USS New Jersey is the only battleship to have had two swimming pools onboard. Apparently when they took out the anti-aircraft guns mounted on the deck, the captain ordered the crew to fill the circular holes left behind with water, and they went swimming.

    Google Tracks Where You've Been, Learn How to Disable It

    I must have disabled it a long time ago, because when I checked, it said it had no location data. Hooray!

    These High-Quality Gaming Tables Cost Quite A Few Gold Pieces

    That's a really beautiful table. If my gaming group met up more than once every few months, I would think about getting one. Then again, I would need a place to put it first...

    Assassin's Creed: Rogue Revealed in Leaked Trailer - Update 2

    So the next-gen consoles get a new setting with some new gameplay elements, and the rest of us get more sailing in Colonial America. Oh well.

    Possible Ring of Power Found in Ancient Roman Bath House

    I believe it means that it's a ring from someone of power, not that the ring itself is giving mystical powers. It still looks fairly cool for being an ancient ring.

    The Big Picture: The Fall of Kevin Smith, Part III

    The only thing I remember about Jersey Girl is the time they filmed a scene at my local diner. It was a pretty big thing for the community; the school let out early because pretty much everyone wanted to go over and see the filming, even though most of the shots were interior and we couldn't...

    Get Drunk With Comic-Con Exclusive Venture Bros. Merchandise

    A limited run of only 798? I have a sneaking suspicion that they ordered 800 and decided to keep one each for themselves.

    Yogventures Artist Paid $35k For Two Weeks "Work"

    Man, I wish that I could get paid a year's salary in one lump sum. Seriously, who though that was a good idea? What's the motivation to work if you've already been paid, and your contract doesn't say anything about actually completing the job?

    Marvel Won't Move Captain America 3 Release Date for Batman v Superman

    It's still two years away, so I don't expect that they'll both release on the same day. One or both of them will have some kind of delay, or someone will move their date forward or back. Until the movie is a few months away, the announced release date is pretty much meaningless.

    Favorite dropped cartoon pilot?

    From what I understand of the situation, it did really well with the ratings and the viewer responses, but Adult Swim decided that producing the series would have cost more money than they were willing to spend at the time. I also believe they went on record a few years later saying they regret...

    Ghostbusters Will Return to Theaters This Labor Day

    The upcoming Blu-Ray release? I'm pretty sure I already own it. In fact, I'm looking at it on my shelf right now. Unless this is some kind of new special edition thing, then I don't know. Still, I'm excited to see it in theaters again.

    Disney Princesses as Avatar: The Last Airbender Characters

    I think you have a point there. Good examples of fanart can be appreciated. Heck, they could even make a new category similar to the cosplay topic. It's just that it seems like the only fanart ever posted is that of Disney princesses. If they could maybe branch out a bit and look at things...
