Ok, so I went on this Riddick bender, and remembered just how bad ass Vin Diesel really could be.
After searching for any word on more Chronicles, I came across this:
The way I see it, is that Riddick, is an actual person. All other roles (including actual Vin Diesel) are just poor acting decisions. If it you view it from this perspective, you can enjoy this video, by saying “Hey, that’s my boy Riddick, doing and saying funny things.”
So, somehow If Magazine got an exclusive interview with producer Erwin Stoff, where he revealed that he just signed a deal with Fox to product a live action Cowboy Bebop movie.
According to Mr. Stoff, the deal was just recently signed, so there’s no details available as of yet. More on the interview after this break.
Found this great instructable with many different ways to open beer bottles. A few of them are actually pretty creative and useful! This instructable explains the following beer-reaping methods:
Of course, I typically buy twist-offs, so I don’t have this problem too often. But there are many brands that still use the traditional caps that make it all the more frustrating when there’s metal in the way between your mouth and delicious, thirst-quenching beer.
Also, check the comments for more beer-opening techniques, like the ball-point pen method. One commenter says that all proper beer comes in cans. Maybe on the moon, but not in America, buddy! The best beer comes in bathtubs!
Mattboyslim pointed out to me that ThinkGeek.com is selling a replica Flux Capacitor for about $250 (marked down from $275). Now, this is an official replica, and only 1,000 will be made. But, for those of us who can’t really afford such expensive memorabilia, there’s always a cheaper method to owning the toys that we want… nay, need.
Enter Instructables user ‘sponges‘. He says: “250 bucks for a flux capacitor? Forget that, I did it for 54 dollars and 79 cents. It has 7 modes and it’s totally freaking awesome! Very little electronics experience is required, just a little resourceful scavenging.”

Guys,
Really, there’s nothing more to say.
So, this may be old news to some of you, but it’s new to me. Apparrently, Disney has chosen “Brokeback Mountain” co-star Jake Gyllenhaal to play the role of the prince in “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time”. This is probably the first time you have read words “Brokeback Mountain” and Disney in the same sentence, so if you’re confused I will understand.
From CountingDown.com:
“Borys Kit reports; “Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton will star in “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time,” Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ adaptation of Ubisoft’s popular video game. Mike Newell is directing.
In the fantasy adventure, Gyllenhaal will play Dastan, a young prince in 6th century Persia who must join forces with Tamina (Arterton), a feisty and exotic princess, to prevent a villainous nobleman from possessing the Sands of Time, a gift from the gods that can reverse time and allow its possessor to rule the world.”
So, I have some mixed feelings over the latest installment in the 2nd-greatest franchise of all time. I think I need to watch it one more time, but after my first viewing I felt a bit let-down and disappointed. I mean, aliens, really?
So, I’m interested in hearing other people’s opinions. So, what did you think of the latest Indy?
Our once Japan-based, now San Diego-inhabiting friend Tyger wrote a nice little review on the recent J.J. Abrams smash-fest Cloverfield. It may have some minor spoilers for those of you who may not have seen the movie yet…since you’re not really supposed to know much of anything about the movie before you see it. Still, It’s been out for a few weeks now, so too bad. That’s why you see it on the opening weekend.
Anyway, I’ll post this one, but from now on his ass can post his own reviews…now that I changed his account privileges. Until then, read on to see if he thought it was a non-stop thrill ride, or fluff-filled motion-sickener…
