Well, I really have nothing important to blog about today, so I'll just give you some eye candy this time.
First off, I know SOME people think that thier "bean-bag couches" are the bees knees, but I think I have found something that trumps the bean-bag couch:
Giant Cat Couch
I love the giant cat couch (its so bad), its hilarious. Can you imagine what people would think when they would first see it? They'd be like "holy sh - oh its just a couch..." It'd be so worth it.
Most everyone is familiar with the account in the Bible where Moses splits the Red Sea so the Israelites can pass through. Well, now YOU can be God! Check it out:
Moses Jacket
I'm not sure if its sacrelige what I just said, but it fit the joke and you got what I meant, I think. Y'know, the whole..hand of....God.....thing.....where he...split the....sea...so his people...........................could...................shut the heck up.
So when its cold and snowy outside, sometimes I like to pretend I'm on Hoth hanging out with Han and Chewie....well, I mean I USED to do that as a kid, not as a grown adult........not recently anyway....um, anyways, now it will be easier for OTHER nerds who do this (not me) to be "in character," thanks to this invention from Adidas:
Wookie Coat
I never wanted to be Chewie as a kid, but seeing as how I almost always got stuck as him when there were already three other kids who had taken Han, Luke, and Obi-Wan, this wouldve been handy.
Have you ever felt like a second-string character in an epic space opera, such as Star Wars? Have you ever dreamed of seeing the supporting cast do something heroic, saving the galaxy, if you will? Well look no further than this:
Jek Porkins Saves the Galaxy
Talk about SOME PIG, Charlotte. That guy needed a specially designed X-Wing just so his ham-hocks fould fit. Was there no basic training in the Rebel Army? I mean, sure, as a pilot you dont have to be built like Arnold to fly a ship. But seriously, any military on Earth would tell this guy to drop a buck fifty or two before signing up. Even though he got roasted at the Death Star, its nice to see him get some recognition here, even if it IS posthumously.
I love these. Theyre so hilarious, I cant even say much about them, they pretty much speak for themselves. Take a look:
All My Friends Are Dead
Epic battles only come around every so often, thats why theyre called Epic Battles. Some are so cool you can sum them up in just three words:
Zombie Versus Shark
This is also just a cool idea. Someone has taken Star Wars and set it back in the 40's, right in the middle of World War II. Take a look at these custom action figures:
If Star Wars Happened During WWII
Thats all for now. I really encourage you to take a look-see at the site SuperPunch.blogspot.com. Its got some really awesome art, stories, nerd stuff, and pretty much anything else that you SHOULD either like, or at least know about, as it may save your life one day.
Quick question: are you ready for zombies???
Dismissed.
A place that I can talk about things like movies, shows, tech, and the pertinent nature of geek culture. My opinion is the one you want, because it's the only one that's right.

Wonder Woman Redeux
I feel kinda ripped off. Why?
Well obvioisly my last entry was about the new Wonder Woman actress/costume. Upon looking around the interwebs I found out about the actress who was originally going to play her.
Her name is Tanit Phoenix. Her name sounds epic; lets see if she is:
Tanit Phoenix
Hmm. Not bad. Not bad at all. Much better looking than Adrianne Palicki. I found aonther picture. You decide if she looks better:
Tanit Phoenix
Wonder Woman Statuette
Oh, definitely. She just has the LOOK, yknow? Its the eyes. Her eyes look like the statuette's. She looks more like Wonder Woman than Linda Carter!
Instead though, they went with this, which looks like (insert a joke involving Rainbow Bright, unicorns, mushrooms, and a pleather factory, cause I cant think of one). This is a hi-res version of the pic I posted last entry:
Adrienne Palicki Looking Like She Knows She Looks Dumb
Its irritating. But hey, speaking of last entry, I have decided to stop posting actual pictures on here. I guess when you use a mobile device to look at the pictures it takes you to a Picassa web album, which is junk and makes the images all pixeled and cruddy looking. So, for all of my thousands of readers, this is for you.
Anywho, I still have low expectations for the new Winder Woman show. It in no way interests me...except for the hottness factor an stuff. Its basically the same reason I want to see Sucker Punch. Im a dude; nuff said.
I have one last image. Its another official picture from the new Wonder Woman show. Enjoy:
New Costume Picture!

Official Wonder Woman Costume
I am not a Wonder Woman fan. But when the reboot show comes on later this year I will definitely watch.
That having been said, I would like to say that I am not complaining about anything here. I am just giving a critical reaction.

Its crap. Honestly, this looks like something you'd see at a Halloween party. "Oh Jamie is Wonder Woman this year! Holy Lasso of Justice, she is fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine!" I'm blown away by the lack of effort put into this costume. Its like they asked a group of 12 year old boys to design it. Ick, I can just imagine the shouts of "add more leather!" now.
I personally am a fan of what they did on Smallville:

Again though, Im not complaining. Im a guy, and guys like good looking women in sezzy clothing. Adrianne Palicki is pretty hot, so to see her as the timeless beauty that is Wonder Woman is, to be honest, any 11+ year old boys dream.
And, in defense of this costume, it is way better than the original:

Just silly. And what's the deal with her waist? It looks like its blowing up a set of leg-shaped baloons. The 70's **shakes head**
The site io9.com had this to say about the picture:
"This first costume photo comes via Entertainment Weekly. According to the site and various script reports, NBC's version of Wonder Woman is supposed to be a 'serious, non-campy take on the DC Comics character.' And yet in the pilot, she complains about her bra size, flies an invisible plane and has a magic lasso. Oh, and she looks like this. This is not looking promising, to say the least."
It seems that the strong, empowering role-model that is the amazonian princess warrior Diana/Wonder Woman has been reduced to a wide-eyed and bushy-tailed, twenty-something valley girl who is "looking for her place in this open-ended world." Which is sad because of everything her character stands for and used to represent.
But, like Captain America, Wonder Woman is a hokey super heroine at best. I really dont think this show will last, just based upon that. They might as well just seal its fate early and cast Summer Glau now. At least that way there would be no confusion when the axe comes down.
But I may be wrong. If they try to appeal to women with this show, there will be alot of happy husbands. Think about it: a show about a woman in tight leather beating and tying up OTHER hot women in tight leather that your wife is OK with you watching and wants to watch WITH you; the ratings may be through the roof. This may end up becoming a huge success.
But dont count on it. You can ususally smell crap no matter what its dressed up as, and this image has that distinct odor. Look for Wonder Woman on NBC later this fall.
