Gravity Falls: The Anime!
Anybody else watching the excellent Gravity Falls? It’s a delightful cartoon in its own right, but the writers have also packed it with so much mythology that there are whole websites dedicated to unraveling the mysteries. I like that in a show. I loved it in Lost, and Gravity Falls definitely has a good head on its shoulders. This is a video made by Mike Inel, taking a scene from a recent Season 3 episode and redoing it as an anime. I think the animation looks pretty slick!
Gritty Adventure Time Trailer is Mathematical!
You all know how much I love gritty reboots, well the Gritty Reboots Youtube channel has fashioned an Adventure Time trailer that is not only awesome in its own right, but so perfectly encapsulates the show! This is some top class Internetting!
That was just gorgeous. It was clearly made by fans of the show, who probably spent a week or so awesomely cosplaying all the characters. And the special effects were just grand! Did you see Jake?! That was insanely good! I need to keep my eye on thi schannel.
Internet Like This Makes Me Giddy!
Behold the glory of the Avengers/Nintendo mash-up!
That Hulk reveal? Totally worth it! James Farr and company make these parodies all the time, and they’re all glorious. The animation is slick, the video game references are off the chain; this is just a great way to start a Monday!
World of Warcraft Needs to Go Into Animation
In the build-up to the next expansion, Warlords of Draenor, the good people at Blizzard created a series of five webisodes detailing the back stories of the titular Warlords. Any fans of Warcraft lore like me will find a lot to love in this videos. They’re expertly animated and voice-acted, as we have come to expect from Blizzard. And they go a long way to selling the potential awesomeness for this expansion.
Though they’re not talking pandas…
For those who don’t yet know, the Warlords are all of the evil orc characters from the first and second Warcraft games, given a new lease on life in World of Warcraft through time travel. The whole thing is a little wonky, but like I said, I’m a huge lore fan, and I really dig this stuff.
Check’em out and immerse yourself in some amazing lore!

I still haven’t decided whether or not I’ll be buying Warlords of Draenor. I haven’t played WoW for awhile now, and I’m kind of broke these days, but maybe I’ll give it a shot. I’m definitely eager to see the new, updated character models.
Any of you henchies going to snatch this game up on the day of release?

My Absolute Favorite Video on Youtube of All Time
I just thought it was high time I shared this part of my life with you fine people. There’s just so much purity in this moment. It’s my ‘plastic bag flowing in the wind’…if that reference isn’t too dated. And it makes for a nice start to this Monday morning.
