A wallet for Shadow Chronicles? Wow, I'm surprised they didn't make a Janice mousepad like these.

Finally, a sensible review of this train wreck. (Part 1) (Part 2)

Dammit, Pete - did you really need to quote all of those images?!?

Scottish Singer/songwriter Gerry Rafferty died on January 4 as a result of liver disease. He was best known as the frontman for the band Stealers Wheel, with their song "Stuck in the Middle" being used in the 1992 Quentin Tarantino film Reservoir Dogs. R.I.P.

Mega Shark Versus Crocosaurus The Asylum, 2010 Directed by Christopher Douglas-Olen Ray Running Time: 90 minutes Rated R for graphic violence, profanity and suggestive drug use on the part of The Asylum. Cast Jaleel White (Sonic the Hedgehog, Steve Urkel in Family Matters) as Lt. Terry McCormick Gary Stretch (Cleitus in Alexander) as Nigel Putnam Sarah Lieving (Emergency technician in Lakeview Terrace) as Special Agent Hutchinson Robert Picardo (Robert McNamara in Call of Duty: Black Ops, The Doctor in Star Trek: Voyager) as Admiral Calvin Synopsis Deep in the jungles of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a giant 1,500-foot crocodile emerges to terrorize everything in its path. Meanwhile, the Megalodon from Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus returns from the deep to once again lay waste on any naval vessel on the ocean. When both species cross paths off the coast of Florida, only a ragtag team consisting of Lt. Terry McCormick, Special Agent Hutchinson and freelance hunter Nigel Putnam can stop them from causing further destruction. Lowdown After the much-hyped Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus, it was evident that The Asylum was gonna do a sequel. Is it worse than the first? Absolutely! But it's still far from being the worst movie ever made. Just like its predecessor, Mega Shark Versus Crocosaurus tries too hard to be an awful B-movie with its horrid script, lousy acting and laughable special effects. But all of that just ends up being too funny to piss anyone off. Casting Jaleel "Steve Urkel" White alone is a barrel of laughs, as he can never do a serious role. Sarah Lieving is hot and all, but given her track record, one must wonder why she's stuck with starring in The Asylum movies. Robert Picardo, despite being a very good actor, doesn't do much in the film. The special effects are actually much less than what you expect from The Asylum. Both the Megalodon and Crocosaurus are poorly-rendered, with their proportions completely out of scale throughout the film. The same footage is also recycled, but flipped horizontally to fool people into either seeing different camera angles or locations. In short, if you enjoyed the first film, you're not missing much. Otherwise, Mega Shark Versus Crocosaurus is a waste of time.

And now, presenting...

Hey watch it! That's an insult to zombies. Suddenly, I can imagine a RT promo video in the same style as the GEICO cavemen commercials... Announcer: "Casting Robotech is so easy, a zombie can do it." Zombie: "What?!? NOT COOL!!!"

Gunbuster was practically nothing but homages, but at least it worked. Astro Plan 9 from Outer Space, however, doesn't work as an homage title. Its only hope is a stateside release by Harmony Gold.

Looks like The Asylum is on a roll with their upcoming mockbusters. Hell, the video cover alone is a double-whammy. Battle of Los Angeles

Actually, ENCOM did not steal Flynn's work. Ed Dillinger stole Flynn's work to become a senior executive of ENCOM.Anyway, a couple of reviews:

The Asylum attempts to crash the Super Bowl with this ad:

Now why couldn't the G.I. Joe movie be like this?

Have these guys got no shame or what? Almighty Thor - Brought to you by none other than The Asylum.

CAT FIGHT!!! Mega Python vs. Gatoroid

LOL!

I picked up the small diecast replicas of Kevin's Light Cycle, Sam's Light Cycle, Clu's Light Cycle and the Light Runner, and I'm happy with just those.

Not as creepy as the Vulcan EBF-25 video, but the Stampede ECS looks tempting.

So when is Disney making a Matterhorn movie? Imagine the sheer excitement that would generate... "Remain seated please. Permaneced sentados por favor."

This Summer, Disney/Pixar will release the sequel to their 2006 hit film Cars. Owen Wilson and Larry the Cable Guy will return as Lightning McQueen and Mater, respectively. Joining the cast will be Michael Caine as Finn McMissile, Emily Mortimer (Rachel in Shutter Island, Nicole in The Pink Panther) as Holly Shiftwell, Jason Isaacs (Lucius in the Harry Potter series) as Siddeley, Joe Mantegna (Joey in The Godfather Part III) as Grem and Peter Jacobson (Dworkin in Law & Order) as Acer. It is unknown, however, if certain characters from the first film will return; Paul Newman (Doc Hudson), George Carlin (Filmore) and Joe Ranft (Red and Peterbilt) have passed on since then. Still, it's Pixar. Who's not gonna go watch a Pixar film on the big screen? Official Site

There's also the Nerf N-Strike Barrel Break IX-2, which is a sawed-off shotgun. I'll pick it up after Christmas, and eventually a guitar case to go with it.

If it's Jiffy Lube, go somewhere else. It's been documented that Jiffy Lube charges people for services they don't even do. Your best bet is to check your owner's manual to see how often you need to have your fuel system and emissions system cleaned.

Nah, it already did that on the third film, except the Kraken was already dead by that time.

It's a revolver, but it uses a battery-operated flywheel for semi-automatic action. The downside is that it's as stealthy as a vacuum cleaner. Here's a sample video:

Well, since someone here already mentioned Nerf guns, I thought I'd join in. I just picked up the Nerf N-Strike Barricade RV-10.
