Tie Fighter: The Anime

What do you get when you combine Star Wars and anime? That was rhetorical–your petty words can’t even begin to describe the beauty of this classic, 80s anime-style short.

Its creator, Paul Johnson (OtaKing77077 on Youtube), created this beautiful animation over the course of four years.

The 6 Best Comic Book Attorneys

I’m in the mood for some courtroom drama! As I mentioned earlier this week, I’m deep in the heart of an intense murder trial, covering it as part of my day job as a mild-mannered newspaper reporter. The last time I had a trial and a List of Six collide, I wrote about 6 Superheroes Put on Trial. This time, I’ve decided to take a look at superhero attorneys!

Objection!

Unless you’re Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark, every superhero needs a day job. Both Clark Kent and myself are mild-mannered reporters. Spider-Man is a freelance photographer. D-Man is a hobo. The list goes on and on. Several comic book heroes (and even some villains) are lawyers! They fight for justice in the courtroom during the day, then fight for justice on the streets at night. Sounds like a pretty solid comic book premise to me.

Join me after the jump for the six best comic book lawyers!

Honest Trailers and The Hobbit Save My Butt!

Busy, busy week! My day job as a mild-mannered reporter has me running around this week, so luckily the fine people at Honest Trailers got around to doing The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. And they pretty much nail it.

Man, that movie. I tells ya. I love the Lord of the Rings as much as the next geek, and I mostly liked The Hobbit trilogy, but that last film was a real slog. Ah well, at least we have these funny Internet videos to help us stick it to’em!

I Told You I Was on a Dragonball Z Kick

Thankfully, the Internet is never short on awesome DBZ stuff! The above short video was made by Jordan Tseng and is all manner of awesome. I’ve said it before and I’ve said it again, if I had that kind of stop motion animation ability, I would…hopefully have an awesome job these days. Or at the very least, I could make some original content. That would be gnarly and cool!

Everything Wrong with Finding Nemo!

I’ve got a busy week in the day job, folks! Some of you may remember that I’m a mild-mannered newspaper reporter during the day, and this day kicks off an intense murder trial! That means I’ll be spending every day this week in a courtroom with little access to blogging. Fortunately, the Internet is every providing.

Here’s Everything Wrong with Finding Nemo, for some reason!

Silly Disney movie. So many things wrong. Thanks Cinema Sins!
