What if Wes Anderson Directed the X-Men?

I’m a huge Wes Anderson fan, and I love parodies like this fan film that hit the Internet the other day. What if Wes Anderson brought his quirky directing style to the X-Men?

Those jumpsuits are definitely awesome.

The video was made by Patrick (H) Willems and is some real quality work. He’s got the tone, he’s got the weirdness, and he’s got the great characters. This film can be added to the other great Wes Anderson parodies out there in Internet-land.

Newest Avengers: Age of Ultron Trailer is Still Amazing!

Here is the third, and probably last, trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron, which will be in theaters on May 1. This trailer is just as good and amazing as the previous trailers.

Oh man, where to even begin? There is just soooo much in that trailer! Ultron, Avengers, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, fights, awesomeness, quips, everybody hanging out in a house for some reason! This trailer was packed to the brim with new stuff! This movie is going to be insanely awesome!

50 Shades of Wayne

Mash-up trailers are rarely as well-made as 50 Shades of Wayne by Josh Meeter! This is good stuff!

There’s no denying that Bruce Wayne lives a pretty kinky life. Thanks to Henchman Javier for the tip!

And while we’re on the subject, I’ve never rear or seen 50 Shades of Grey myself, but anybody looking for some serious, legitimately good and even educational BDSM entertainment should read Sunstone by Stjepan Sejic. It’s more than a little NSFW, but it’s a damn good story beyond that.

My 6 Favorite Stand-Up Comedians Working Today

What do you do when you have to take a long drive on your own? Me personally, I listen to stand-up comedians to pass the time. They’re always good for a laugh, and there are a lot of great CDs out there to choose from. You’ve got the classics, like George Carlin, and new guys, like Aziz Ansari. There’s also the added benefit of their voices sounding like there’s someone else in the car. Oh, the crushing loneliness…

“Don’t you hate pants?”

Nah, it’s not really like that, I promise. But ever since I started buying comedy albums, I’ve taken on a new appreciation for today’s stand-up comics. I’ve also discovered some really great talent, and I thought I’d take this week to share. Maybe next week I’ll get back to talking about superheroes…although this group would make a pretty great superhero team. Join me after the jump for my six favorite stand-up comedians, plus a few honorable mentions! Read the rest of this entry

What Superheroes Are Called in Other Languages

Some of you may already know these, but they’re pretty neat. France and Hungary have a way with superheroes, it seems. All credit goes to the clearly awesome James Chapman. That guy knows coolness. And he’s got a ton of other translated character names back on his Tumblr!
