Avatar: The Legend of Korra

I forgot to add one last picture of Korra from the new Avatar show. Enjoy!

New Avatar TV Show?!?!?

Yes, you read that right: there is going to be a new Avatar tv show! I almost crapped when i read that myself, but guess what? I has pictures!!
First off, the name (for right now, because its still in development) is "Avatar: The Legend of Korra." Oooooo, sounds promising, right? Evidently it will follow Korra, one of the great-grandchildren of Aang, the main character of the original show, and his wife Katara, also from the original show. She is now the new Avatar, from a waterbending tribe from the looks of it. It takes place 60 or 70 years after the original.


So this first picture is of the main character, Korra, standing on a...thing, looking out at Republic City, as its called. The story is that the city, while being a veritable melting pot for all nations and tribes and people, has become overrun by crime and stuff. My guess is that Korra becomes like a Batman type figure in the city, all while learning that shes the new Avatar and coming to grips with all that jazz. But there has to be more to it than that, so here hoping. I have another picture, but im not sure it is an official picture from the actual show, but it looks like it could be.


It looks like Korra is meeting Aang, long after hes dead, while hes a spirit. Like i said, could be just a fan made picture, or maybe it could be real, not sure. But it sounds like it could be a solid show, just like the first one.
All in all, im excited. That show and the world it created for itself is waay too cool to just let die with the original. Besides, with the failure that was the movie and because it was such a slap in the face so to speak, there has to be SOMEthing to lessen the pain from that disaster. So i guess us fans of the show can take comfort that M. Night Shaymalan didnt completely kill our beloved Avatar.
Now for the bad news: the release date for the show has been set for late 2011. Im talkin like November 2011. Thats the only info i could find about its release. But hey, if thats the ONLY bad thing, then im okay with that. I can be patient.
Heres hoping that 2011 will surprise us all with this new incarnation (or REincarnation haha! Get it?) of the series and be as awesome as the first.

How Sweet Were The Jackson 5 In This Picture? Not Even A Little Bit










Im not exactly sure what album this is from, but i just found it in my house. Im pretty sure it was a joke at the time, as much of a joke it is now, 20 some odd years later. Im also sure SOMEone out there will start feeling all nostalgic and cry cause the good old days when mullets were cool, michael was still alive/kinda black/kinda straight, and the Jackson 5 werent gay yet are over.
Well, on second thought, and based on this pic alone id say the Jackson 5 were pretty much always gay. Or most definitely were by the time this picture was made. You KNOW the artist who did it was like "oh yeeaah boyeeee! This gonna be the most dope picture of the Jackson boys yet! They gonna look so far out theyll never stop bein cool. I cant wait for Short Circuit 2!!!" Its a shame for that guy that his dream never came true.
Oh well. At least they still are all famous.....oh, wait...thats right; theyre not.
Well at least theyre still making good music......oh, crap....yeah, not that either.
Well at least theyre all still alive..........oooh right. Too soon? Sorry :/
Ok, well thats all i got for you all people. Check back for more some other time. Peace out.
Ps, Johnny 5 is alive!

More Demotes

i found these to be hilarious, so enjoy!











What Is A Sha-oo?

Hello there, cyberpunks. Im happy you stopped by Old Lee's blog. I have a few things to discuss wit-choo.
First off, i just wanna apologize to whoever used to read this, but stopped because i stopped. I took a break...like a long break from it all. But now im back, hopefully i wont get distracted anymore. So anyways, moving forward.

Ok, so i used to be excited about The Last Airbender, but, as it turns out, its a pile of hot, steamy crap. Its really sad because the show was so awesome, but the movie is terrible. I could go on for a very long time explaining all the things that made this movie fail, but ill narrow it down to three.
1. For some reason, M. Night Shamalama-ding-dong decided that the names of certain characters needed to be pronounced differently, probably because hes a douche. Like Aang, the main character, his name is pronounced "AH-ng" like the way the word "long" is said. Then we have Sokka, which, in the movie, is pronounced "Soaka" kinda like the way a british person would say "soaker." Then you have the way they say the word "Avatar." They say it "AH-vatar" which is just rediculous.

2. The acting is so bad that it borders on being classified as a fan-made movie. Like, im pretty sure this movie is gonna end the collective careers of every person in the whole picture. Im pretty sure if all the kids in my neighborhood got together to make an Avatar-based fan movie it would be better than the trash that Mr. M. Night Shupalupa-Poopypants decided to make. Grr..frustration.

3. The story is all over the place. Like, if youre going to make a movie of a beloved kids show you have two options. The first is that you stay completely true to the show and make as many details as possible coincide with the original production. The second is to change the story completely and make it your own thing. Being a horror/action/drama/weirdy kinda director, i would have expected Mr. M. Night Sham-Wow! to have taken the second approach.

So, thats that. I really didnt expect it to be a good movie, but i also didnt expect it to suck as badly as it did.

Well, i better stop here, mainly because i have a life and i want to other things with my day. But, have no fear, i will try to update more often. Sorry, master Yoda.
Ok, well bye.

TFU2 In Gamepro Magazine!

So I just got done reading a review of the Force Unleashed 2 in Gamepro, and it looks like it's going to be flipping amazing! They pretty much detailed like the first two missions and I will tell you about it right now:
****ATTENTION: SPOILER ALERT!****
Starkiller is a clone for sure, and the game starts off with Darth Vader going to Kamino to check on him. He walks in and Starkiller is in a prison cell, fighting against like a bunch of PROXY droids. Well one of them turns into Juno and he can't move himself to kill her and he doesn't know why.
So Darth Vader tells him that he is a clone of the original Starkiller and that they accelerated the cloning process to re-create him, but it has gone wrong for some reason and that's why he's having trouble with certain things. Darth Vader also reveals that there were a number of clones before him and that all the previous copies have gone mad (ooooh exciting!)
So Starkiller sees a force vision of when Vader betrayed and stabbed the original Starkiller in the first game, and he basically breaks out of the cloning facility, steals Vaders TIE fighter, and leaves Kamino.
He later finds out that General Rahm Kota (from the first game) is being held captive by some imperial guy on Cato Nemoidia, so he goes there to save him. He ends up having to fight in like a gladiatorial arena (like what was in the trailer) for seven days. At the end of the seven days (and after fighting the Gorog, the big thing from the trailer) he ends up saving Kota and escaping on the Rogue Shadow.
Once aboard, Kota cant believe he really is a clone because no ones ever successfully cloned a jedi. Starkiller asks what to do next and Kota makes a joke about how he should go and meditate on Kashyyyk or Dagobah, and for some reason that piques Starkillers interest, but he doesnt know why it is so important or why it resonates with him.
So he plots a course for Dagobah. Once there Kota tells him to go into the "cave of evil," as he calls it. Inside the cave he sees visions of himself reaching out and begging for help. The article says he has the opportunity to strike them down or not to, but he ends up choosing not to, basically realizing that his first response should not be to lash out, i guess.
He then sees a vision of Juno as a captain of a starship under attack and he sees her die, then she disappears. Thats where the description of the game ends. No word on if Yoda will be on Dagobah, but his voice is heard in the trailer, so im guessing its plausible to assume.
But it does go on to talk about how much more mature the game will be, stating that theyre trying to get the ESRB to let them do some things that are pretty nasty. Im guessing they want to do some dismemberment this time around. Which would only make sense, because youre using a LIGHTSABER to fight with. Actually two this time around!! And they amped up the physics and junk too.
All in all this game looks like its gonna kick major butt.
I cant wait. It said the game will be released on October 26th. So mark your calendar and start saving. Haha!!

Squircles: Square Circles

Attention:
I have some treats for you today. Basically, this guy who makes comics for the newspaper, Dan Pirero i think is his name, is a genius. His comics are totally funny and usually dont really have anything to do with anything. Here i have picked out a few of my favorites to share with you. His comics are really great. Check it out:


















Haha! See? My favorites are the first one and the last two, they just make me giggle.
Aslo the artist who makes these hides secret things in each one. Like theres a slice of pie, a bird, TNT, and some other things hidden, but theyre not really hard to find.
Anyway, you should check him out. Google his name or something. No, i wont do it for you! Does my web address say "www.DangerousLeeHarrisWillFulfillYourWildestDreamsForLooseChange.blogspot.com"? I think not. But that would be funny if it did. Ha!
Dismissed.

Play That Funky Music, Caucaisan Young Adult

Hey all you people. It has been like forever, but i have a huge dump of pictures to unload on you, so you should be excited. First off id like to thank Geekologie for being so good at doing my job. Once again, this is another reason why out-sourcing is a good idea. Why do youre job when someone else can do it for you? Ha! Anyway, lets get to it.



This picture is of a caution label on a lazy-person lawn mower where i work. It obviously tells you not to get to close to the blades and yaddi yadda. But a guy i work with, we'll call him "Justin Yerges" for right now, said that this sign makes him think, "Caution: standing too close to mower will cause spontaneus break-dancing." Classic misrepresentation. I have never wanted to dance near those mowers. Shame shame.



Ooh! This ones great and is kind of like those "I Spy" books from when i was a kid. This lady i worked with was leaving forever and everyone signed this shirt so i took the opportunity to do a little shirt-vandalism. Ill just say this: when you see it, youll crap bricks. Ill let you find what im talking about. Its along the whole "Lees awesome" line of thinking. :D



This is a pretty cool picture i thought. It was in a book full of pictures like this, only with other foods too. I saw it at Barnes & Noble, if you were wondering.



These are my sisters and my lego characters from the lego Star Wars game (yes, that is a completely correct sentence, despite sounding weird.) Im the one on the right, fyi. Crazzy right!? Ha!



I must remember to play this! Theres a scummy truck stop gas station out by the interstate where i live and as you exit the restroom, or as i like to call it "The Hole," theres a small arcade and they have the Terminator Salvation game in it. The guns are sweet on it, but i didnt take thier picture. Up top theres an ominous T-800 looking down, disapprovingly staring at you. But that just makes me want to play it even more!



This is me being silly on a swingset. I should probably spruce this one up and make it look cooler.



There we go. Much better. One time while i was swinging on a swingset at my old elementery school, this guy shot lasers at me, but it was ok because i had my lightsaber and deflected them while things were blowing up left and right around me. But im so cool that i didnt even break my stride. And somebody was there to capture that exact moment. My life is like a box of comic books.

I think thats all i got for right now. Thats not as much as i thought itd be. But its more than it has been in a while. So you see? Geekologie hasnt put me completely out of business. Old General Lee cant be beat that easy! Ha!
Ok, well until next time, im Lee and this has been my blog that will kick you in the face.



T-800 says, "Bye!"

This picture was taken from the website www.geekologie.com. Its just a funny little tidbit that i stole from there.

My new phrase should be, "Lee Harris: Blogging By Proxy And Promoting Plagiarism For Over A Year Now!"
But its really a great site, trust me.
So follow the link below if you want to see one of the funnier things ive seen on that site. Enjoy!

T-Shirts For Nerds?!

So i was on the Sci-Fi Wire app on my IPhone and saw some sweet t-shirts that i would like to share with "you all everybody." Some of them i understand, but others i kinda could care less, like the ones about Serenity. Its just a fact of life: Serenity will NEVER be Star Wars. It does, however, have Summer Glau in it, so i guess it gets a pass. I have to give all props to the people who run the Sci-Fi Wire app for all the captions to the photos. I wish it were my comedy, but too bad. Enjoy.   


This reminds us that the fate of the Death Star is a fitting metaphor for our economy.


If you like deceased Lost characters, pictures of old nukes, and puns based around 1970s catch phrases ... this shirt's for you. Also, you have to love teal.


This shirt combines the tri-glory of Space Invaders,The X-Files and turning blurry stock photos into T-shirts for profit.


Those who dislike Democratic presidents will probably hate this shirt. Those who dislike Republican governors will probably hate this shirt. That's the paradox of James Cameron.


If he's such a pimp, how come his palms are so hairy?


Yes, he did. It's all Monty Python crap.


If you are a huge comic-book fan, and you have a girlfriend, and you're ripped, you now have the perfect awful Christmas present.


This quartet of environmentally themed Star Warstees neglects to state an opinion on sleeping inside larger animals.


We always knew Buffy was a top and Edward was a bottom. Unless "staked" isn't some kind of a gay metaphor.


The Professor from Gilligan's Island could probably use this shirt to fix the hole in the S.S. Minnow.


This explains why homeless people are always found in recycling bins.


"Can you describe the bike thief, little boy?"


We would wager that there are at least a dozenTrek-themed pornos that begin this way.


Soooo ... Kirk gets the munchies and dives into a pile of live furry animals. Pass what you're smoking, Captain!


If you were young enough for both Star Wars and the hilarious Kids in the Hall ... when do you age?


This was way more popular than the Rodney King-themed shirts featuring stormtroopers.


"Area 51" might as well read "Agent Scully's Pants" for the entire run of that show.


This is the perfect garment for X-Men fanatics who are concerned that not enough strangers are noticing how fat they are.


... and so will this pun. Apparently for many more decades.


This is not the best shirt to look at when one is constipated.


We tried removing the logic memory center from our I.B.M. Bill Gates popped out and punched us in the face.


Flash's secret identity is not-so-subtle.


If you're in the small group who likes BOTHSerenity and Star Wars (i.e., everyone who likes either), this shirt is for you.
