This is LEGO Sparta!
The same people who made yesterday’s Lego Inception seem to have also made a Lego 300 clip! Good times.
Thanks to Topless Robot for both finds.
Mr. Rogers Raises the Bar a Little
They always say that true genius isn’t recognized in its time. Though I’m pretty sure that everybody knows that the late Mr. Rogers is awesome, PBS has apparently come up with an awesome new Mr. Rogers remix. He could live on as Youtube greatness!
The Magikarp Sea Shanty
Pokemon is a ripe topic for parody, and will so forever be. Which brings me to The Magikarp Song: A Pokemon Shanty by Random Encounters. It’s a catchy tune about a fisherman who just wants to capture a Pikachu. For those who don’t understand, Magikarp is a fish pokemon that basically just flops around and splashes in puddles. That’s the joke. But you’re not here for the comedy, you’re here for the shanties!
Hitman: Killer of Badass Hit-Nuns
The great Tobuscus returns with another literal trailer, this time set to Hitman Absolution. I haven’t seen the real trailer, but I don’t need to, not after seeing Tobuscus’ latest masterpiece. He’s quickly becoming one of my all-time favorite Internet acts!
Perry Bible Fellowship Does Galactus
Marvel Comics teaming up with The Perry Bible Fellowship may be one of my favorite pop culture team-ups of the modern age.
For those of you who don’t know, The Perry Bible Fellowship is this amazing, hilarious comic strip by a guy named Nicholas Gurewitch. There’s no single plot to the strip, simply joke after joke after joke. And for those of you who are already fans, I have some added, personal trivia for you! The Perry Bible Fellowship got its start in the comic section of The Daily Orange, the student-run newspaper at Syracuse University.
And what other comic strip ran in The Daily Orange right alongside The Perry Bible Fellowship? Why, my very own Falmouth University, of course! Granted, Gurewitch’s comic was much better, and he’s had a ton more success than me. But I still like being able to say that my meager little comic ran alongside one of the greats in its original run!
And then Gurewitch went on to actually draw comic strips for Marvel Comics! Brilliant stuff.
I like to tell myself that if I ever met him again, he’d totally remember my comic and tell me he was a fan. I can dream, can’t I?
