Anybody else ever notice the constellation Orion has a penis?

I was just looking up at Orion's belt and noticed something surprising below it.  It's pretty easy to spot in the pictures below, it's called the Orion Nebula, but I'm pretty sure Nebula is space slang for "junk."

5 Vehicles That Would Make Badass Transformers

We've seen a wide array of machines and vehicles as Autobots and Decepticons in the three Transformers movies, but there are many other machines that would either dwarf the largest in the movies, or be much deadlier or quicker.  So I'm going to compose a list in no particular order of machines and forms of transportation that could be amazing to see made into Transformers, even if it's not feasible for the movie budget.

1. MS Val Brasil

I started with this one because I read that Michael Bay actually planned on including Tidal Wave (a bot whose alternative form is an aircraft carrier) in the movies, but it was cut because it wouldn't have been affordable.  This gal is a little longer than an aircraft carrier, and about twice as heavy, just for fun I'll include some measurements, so we can all imagine just how large of a Transformer we're talking here.  Besides it's monstrous size, it also has the ability to go aquatic, so if it did ever face a fight it couldn't win, it has an alternative method of travel besides Godzilla-stomping through cities.

Size: 1,187 ft long, and 213 ft wide, originally over 400,000

2. The X-43

The X-43 gained the title of world's fastest unmanned aircraft in 2004, which would make it a valuable ally when fighting giant transforming machines.  "Scramjet" seems to be a suitable Transformer name, it's only problem is it has to be hoisted in the air by a carrier plane.

Speed:  7,546 mph

3. 797

Although Long Haul is a 773B, which is a monstrous dump truck, there was originally some fanart that depicted him as a 797.  To make it a little clearer, based on what I read, by comparison the 797 is 8 ft taller, 15 ft longer and 12 ft wider.  I've read that the bot depicted in the movies as Long Haul, is the size a bot should be if it were the alternate form of a 979, but the truck he turns into is a 773B for some reason.  Either way, it'd be much cooler to see this bad boy rolling around in the movie, because it's a much larger truck.  (Information from username David Hingtgen found in this thread)

Size:  25 ft tall, 49.5 ft long, and weights of 1 million lbs.

4. Thrust SSC

It's the fastest land vehicle ever, it looks badass to begin with, it's size would make it a comparable bot in any battle, and the enormous turbofan engines would enable the bot to fly, for short bursts at the least.  I would think Mean Streak would be a nice Transformer name for this guy.

Speed:  763 mph

Size:  54 ft long, 12 ft wide, and it weights 10.5 tons

5. Antonov An-225

image source

  

Remember when I referenced a carrier plane a few vehicles back?  Well that's what this big boy is, what other aircraft do you know that can wear a space shuttle as a backpack?  It could probably carry most of the other Transformers in it's belly, being the largest airplane on Earth, it is capable of carrying almost 1 million pounds.  The Hughes H-4 Hercules has a slightly longer wingspan, and a greater height, but isn't nearly as long, or heavy, not to mention Hercules only flew once.  Hercules would be a suitable name for this guy though should he appear in the movie, the space shuttle can even be his sidekick.

Size:  275 ft long, wingspan is 290 ft, weighs over 600,000 lbs empty, and can carry nearly 1 million lbs.

Speed:  850 mph

Strangely Weird & Unusually Bizarre

Most Bizarre Looking Sharks on Earth

Man, just when you think there aren't any species out there that are completely foreign to you, you find a page like this.  I always assume that any animals this crazy looking, would have appeared in one of my searches in the past, I mean, sure a good number of these I recognize, but some of them were brand new to me, and man do they look weird.

13 Inch Daddy Longlegs

I find a lot of articles in the Huffington Post's weird section that peak my interest.  This one is about one of the largest ones ever known, that was found in a cave in South America.  If you visit the link, you'll probably find it worth your time to explore more of their content, as it's updated pretty frequently with strange stories.

Live Shark Falls Out of the Sky

You've got to love how some things in this world defy explanation.  Even if there is a suitable scientific explanation as to why a 2 ft. long live shark fell out of the sky onto this golf course, it still stretches
your imagination.  It's never as interesting to know why, the fun is wondering about all of the possibilities, even if there is a logical reason.  Maybe NASA was sending a shark into space and it learned to eject, but then why wasn't it equipped with a parachute?  The world may never know.

Mysterious Purple Spheres Found in the Desert

They look like the eggs of some aquatic or amphibious creature had it been fertilized by an extraterrestrial.  There are a few theories included in the comments section, but I like to believe these are the bath beads of an alien race that visited Earth just after leaving an interstellar Bed Bath & Beyond.

300 Million Year Old Gear?

One again there could always be a logical explanation as to why this piece of machinery was found imbedded in coal that dates back hundreds of millions of years.  Of course if it is proof of ancient alien visitation, it makes you wonder how advanced their technology could be if they're using alloys that we recognize, in addition to the fact that it broke off in the first place.  I like to believe they'd be using lasers and telekinesis to do any sort of mining.

Feather Emerges From Baby's Neck

Here's to hoping that the doctor's rather mundane explanation is inaccurate, because how much cooler would it be if this baby was actually the beginning of the next step in evolution.  Might we finally be mutating into super powered beings with the ability to fly?

Green Children of Woolpit

This is probably nothing more than a fable that stretches back hundreds of years, but nonetheless it is steal one of the more interesting mysteries in the realm of the bizarre.  Sure it's possible that both children suffered from hypochromic anemia, but it's much more fun to imagine them crawling out of the Hollow Earth and emerging in someone's farm.

Encyclopedia of Britain's Mysteries

This link leads to a very large list of mysteries and legends of Britain.  I found it when I was looking for more information about the story of the Green Children of Woolpit, and will be going through it to pick out some of the more interesting ones to include in a future post.

5 Fun and Addictive Flash Games

Been looking for more flash games that are actually fun and worth your time?  Try these


Elephant Quest

I've skipped over this flash game more times than I can count, neither the name, or any screenshot I've seen, made me want to play it.  But for some reason, I guess after trying every other flash game I could come across, I decided to give it a try, boy, am I glad I did.  You don't have to like elephants to enjoy this game, you're strapped with a laser gun on your back, you have to navigate through numerous stages filled with baddies, when you kill enough of them you level up.  The skill tree is huge, the dialogue is humorous, and there are a ton of upgrades that make this game one of my personal favorites.  Did I mention the elephant with a laser gun?

Burrito Bison Revenge

Sounds like three random words with nothing in common, but it is also the name of a very addictive game.  You are a wrestler(which has nothing to do with the game) that flings himself out of the ring, crowdsurfing on gummy bears, doing his best not to hit the ground.  At first, it will feel like there's not much to do, that is until you start upgrading, and find yourself in a police cruiser or a rocket, oh and the best part if when you turn into a poptart that somehow uses a rainbow for propulsion.  Good times await with this game.

Learn to Fly 2

In this game, you take control of a penguin with the goal of flying as far as you can.  Whoever said penguins can't fly, obviously has never heard of a hang glider. Everything is upgradeable, and the further you fly, the more points you can spend on upgrading all of your equipment, it's also pretty humorous, don't miss out.

Monster Legions

Ever played a side scrolling battle game where you can summons swordsmen, archers and fire mages?  Haven't we all?  How about one where you can summon giant scorpion riders, giant spiders and rock golems?  There are a large variety of units to bring into battle, even treefolk, and giant wurms, and the best part is you have to earn them.  This game has a lot going for it, with it's original card based summoning stystem, after every battle you win, you are rewarded with a card that allows you to summon a certain unit.  It takes time to build the ultimate army, think you can do it?

Clan Wars 2

Another side scrolling war game where you summon units, because it's one of the best kinds of games there are, duh.  You start off every level with lowly goblins, but the more opponents you kill, the more money, experience, magic abilities, and unit types you unlock.  By the end of each match you'll be sending out wolf riders, and lava golems, and giant demons.  You pick from three heroes at the beginning and each of them plays a little different, so it's worth it to go back and replay with each one.

9 New Shows to Watch for in 2013

I won't lie, even though there are a ton of new television shows due to come out this year, it's looking pretty bleak as far as creativity.  I looked long and hard to compose this list of nine shows that might actually be worth watching, hope you enjoy.

 
Arrested Development

I know what you’re thinking, Arrested Development isn’t a new show, it was cancelled about seven years ago.  Well, that may be true, but that hasn’t stopped it from finally returning, from what I’ve read it seems like each episode will follow one character at a time to show what they’ve been up to since we last saw them, this is supposedly all supposed to lead to an Arrested Development movie.

Teen Titans Go!

All of the Teen Titans crew will be back, and everything I’ve read about it is making it seem like it’s more about their lives between all the super hero adventures, focusing on what it’s like for a group of super powered teens living together with no supervision.  Also it’s supposed to have a more comical feel, with episodes that only last eleven minutes.  It sounds like a good mix to me.

Beware The Batman

What!?  A new Batman series?  That’s all you have to say if you want me to give it a chance.  I can’t dislike anything that involves Batman, and even though this series will be computer animated (which reminds me of the short lived “Spider-Man:  The New Animated Series”) I still can’t see this series being anything but great.  Instead of Robin, he has a new sidekick named Katana, and this rendition of Alfred is a former secret agent, I think this will give the franchise a fresher feel.

Da Vinci’s Demons

Speaking of Batman, this series is written by David S. Goyer, the man that wrote Batman Begins, and The Dark Knight, as well as the Blade Trilogy.  Both imdb.com and Wikipedia have rather short entries about this, but just based on what I expect for the writing, and that it’s going to be about a young Da Vinci that can see the future, I’ll give it a chance at the very least.  It also mentions that Leonardo was a swordfighter, I won’t miss an episode on the off chance that he gets transported into the future and transformed into a mutant turtle.

The Last Ship

Okay, so before I did a little research about this one it sounded like a great idea for a series.  Long story short, the crew of a naval destroyer realizes that the majority of the human population has fallen victim to a pandemic, leaving them unsure of how many survivors are out there.  This sounds like a pretty awesome premise in itself, add to the fact that Michael Bay is directing and it sounds like a solid series.  Then I dug a little deeper and realized that it’s not much like the book it’s based on, which might not necessarily be a bad thing, except the book sounds utterly badass, so the show has potential, and if nothing else, I will definitely be reading the novel.

Under The Dome

It was originally a book written by Stephen King, with Steven Spielberg involved in production, that alone should have you listening.  On a day just like any other, a small town in Maine is incased in an enormous is sealed off from the world in an invisible bubble.  Families are separated, and everyone is left wondering where this enormous dome came from, while the community is broken and basically in a state of chaos, there is only limited time to find a way out.  (Check out slash film.com for more details. http://www.slashfilm.com/stephen-kings-under-the-dome-to-air-on-cbs-in-2013-from-producer-steven-spielberg/)

In The Flesh

We can probably all agree that as far as zombie series’ go, there is no topping Walking Dead, but this series, which is only three parts, looks at the whole idea from a new perspective.  In this scenario, after a zombie attack, somehow the government finds a way to reintroduce them into society.  It is said to be more about the nature of humanity as well what exactly death means.  It sounds like a very original idea, let’s see what comes of it.  (Want more? http://www.starburstmagazine.com/tv-news/3842-tv-news-bbc-3-announce-new-zombie-series-in-the-flesh)

The Hundred

I couldn’t find much information about this one, but from what I could hunt down, it’s set in a post apocalyptic world, where 100 delinquents return to a very different Earth, they are the only hope of repopulating the human race.  It may not be the most revolutionary idea, but it is definitely noteworthy among the lists of terribly cliché ideas.

The Sixth Gun

Again it was hard to find information on the show idea, but then again it’s just being picked up for a pilot, just like “The Hundred” above, so we can only hope that they turn into a series.  The Sixth Gun is based on the comic of the same name, which focuses on six guns that grant different magical powers to whoever is in possession of them, each gun connects to an individual for life.  However the cast, script and directing work out, it’s got to be better than that celebrity diving show.

10 Cartoons That Should Be Made Into Live Action Movies

In the last decade nearly every cartoon you can remember has had a live action movie made in it's honor.  From the likes of Transformers and G.I. Joe, all the way to Garfield and Alvin and the Chipmunks.  Well I have composed a list of ten that deserve the same treatment, mainly for visual purposes, I'm not saying the storyline would hold up for a two hour film, but think of how cool it would look if it was done the right way.  Just to clarify, I don't mean people walking around in goofy costumes, I mean the full on CGI special effects of modern day movies applied to these favorites.

10. Biker Mice From Mars

The Reason:  Hello?  Human sized alien mice riding motorcycles and fighting monsters and robots.  'Nuff said.

9. TaleSpin

The Reason:  Who wouldn't want to see a talking bear maneuver a cargo plane through countless air chases, and remember it's not just any bear, it's Baloo from The Jungle Book, seems like a good mix of action and comedy.

8. Darkwing Duck

The Reason:  He is the terror that flaps in the night.  Don't act like you don't remember the catchphrase "Let's get dangerous."  He's something like a duck version of Batman, and while that's reason enough, add to that the fact that he wasn't nearly as bright and had a habit of clumsily falling or making big mistakes but in the end always lucked out and prevailed against evil.

7. Animaniacs

The Reason:  Heeelllooo Nurse!  It'd be way more entertaining than another Alvin and the Chipmunks movie, plus it was originally brought to us by Steven Spielberg, put him back in the mix, then release these characters in the real world, and expect up to date pop culture references, celebrity cameos, and cartoon physics.  You know you'd see it in theatres.

6. The Tick

The Reason:  (And I don't mean like the live action show, I'd rather see him in CGI looking all Hulk-esque.)  Pretty much the same reasons I listed for Darkwing Duck, except this guy's only real power is being nigh invulnerable, which basically means he can get his ass kicked and then jump right back up and shout "Spoon!" before pummeling evil into the ground.  Not enough?  He's surrounded by countless super hero parodies, many of whom have the least useful superpowers imaginable, oh and his worst enemy is Chairface, a super villain with a chair for a head.

5. Captain Planet

The Reason:  Let's set it in the near future, the ozone layer is nearly depleted, the ocean is infested with oil, and the polar caps are melting rapidly, doom is eminent.  It's up to the Planeteers, and a more modernized/kickass version of Captain Planet to do something about it.  There are plenty of super villains to choose from for this movie, but I'd like to see British Petroleum involved somehow.

4. Gargoyles

The Reason:  With nearly every comic book character and super hero having a movie nowadays, I'm really surprised this one hasn't been made yet.  It's the only one with a serious feel on the list so far, it would be great if done like the last few Batman movies.  They're gargoyles, they turn into stone during the day, they have super strength and can fly.  I don't even think I need to list anymore reasons, but there are plenty.

3. Pinky And The Brain

The Reason:  Everyone loves them.  One is a genius...the other is insane.  Two mice attempting to take over the world, there it is short and sweet.  Be sure to imagine two actual mice playing the part.  The Brain, I'm thinking, should be voiced by Liam Neeson.

2. AAAHH!!! Real Monsters

The Reason:  Think back to everything you remember about this show, and tell me it wouldn't be an insanely awesome live action movie.  It's nothing like Monster's Inc, these guys are disgusting and can actually be scary.  Remember Ickis, Oblina, and Crumm, oh and of course their teacher The Gromble?

1. Street Sharks

The Reason:  I'll tell you what, you try to come up with one reason why it wouldn't be a kick ass live action movie.  Can't do it?  That's what I thought.  Imagine giant walking sharks with the Hulk's arms, diving under the asphalt and swimming through the streets with their dorsal fins sticking out.  If directed the right way, the visuals would be insane.



Expect a sequel to this post, there are plenty more cartoons that deserve the live action movie treatment, but this is just ten of them for the time being.

5 Underrated TV Shows

I just decided to do this post since I've realized that a lot of better television shows are flying under the radar while other, entirely awful shows seem to soar.  That is not to say that many of the shows that get very high rating don't truly deserve them, because there are plenty I find worth watching that have a good bit of popularity.  Some of my favorites being Modern Family, How I Met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory, and Once Upon a Time.  With that said, some of the ones on this list I would rank above some of those just mentioned.  Here goes my list:

5.  The Riches

With a superb cast, better than average writing and a suspenseful plot, this show should have been a shoe in for gaining major popularity.  With Minnie Driver and Eddie Izzard as the lead roles, the premise involves a family of wandering con artists that hit it big in stealing the identities of a wealthy family.  There is plenty of drama to go around as their former gang of gypsies find out what their doing and want in on it.  Sadly this show was cancelled, but it just goes to show how some gems can slip through the cracks and disappear forever.

4.  The Big C

I overlooked this show for a while because the title had me assuming it was one of those melodramatic 90210 type of programs.  I came to find out that the title "The Big C" refers to cancer, which the main character (played by Laura Linny) is diagnosed with in the first episode.  Stage 4 melanoma to be more specific, so with little time left to live, it shows how her life is turned upside down and changes many of her relationships with family members and friends.  Laura Linny does a great job holding together a very diverse cast of unique characters, from her homeless brother to her childish husband, and even though this show has such a dark premise, it manages to stay upbeat and humorous, in between all of the suspense they manage to build about what is going to happen next.  This show is still going, and has decent reviews depending on where you look to find a review, I just don't feel like there is much buzz going around, since until I decided to start watching it, I'd never heard anyone talking about it.

3. Shameless

If the mere mention of sex, alcohol or drugs makes you cringe then this is probably not the show for you, on the other hand, even though this show pushes every limit it can think to, and portrays every taboo imaginable, it does it in a very inventive way.  You'll forget that William H. Macy is playing the father "Frank" because he does a damn good job of getting into character.  He is a drunk that is either always at the bar, or passed out on the floor, leaving his huge house full of kids to basically raise themselves.  I've got to tip my hat to these writers because not only is every episode original without feeling repetitive in the slightest, they find a way to build these completely unique three dimensional characters and involve each and every one into a cohesive storyline which is not an easy task when you're dealing with such an immense cast.  Many shows take several seasons to reveal the unique traits that make each character an individual, but this is not one of them.  I don't mean to say that this show is unpopular or even has low ratings, I just believe it deserves to be talked about more and more.

2.  New Girl

If you didn't already know Zooey Deschanel was hilarious then there's probably something wrong with you, but if you did and haven't checked this show out yet, then shame on you.  This show gets decent ratings and is pretty popular to my knowledge, but I think it deserves to be one of the main comedies that people talk about, it should be right up there with Modern Family, The Big Bang Theory, and How I Met Your Mother.   If you haven't watched it and decide to start from the beginning, don't get too attached to the character named "Coach" as he is only in the pilot episode.  Zooey plays the eccentric and nerdy "Jess" a school teacher that decides to turn her life around when she catches her boyfriend cheating, and ends up moving in with three guys.  The cast is hilarious, the writing is phenomenal because it is definitely fresh comedy, but if you were addicted to the show "Friends" there are actually a good bit of subliminal references to different episodes, just like with How I Met Your Mother.  Each character stands out, and like I said about Shameless, after a few episodes you'll feel like you know them all individually.  I haven't watched a single episode that hasn't left me literally laughing hysterically.

1. The River

Yes, this Stephen Spielberg produced show was cancelled after one season because of ratings, but my question is why?  While shows like Dancing With The Stars and American Idol thrive, masterpieces like this aren't even given a chance, I just don't understand.  The story begins when a famous television personality known for exploring the wilderness goes missing in the Amazon, and a reality show/rescue mission is sent looking for him.  To me this paranormal program feels like Lost meets The Walking Dead, and deserves to be ranked right up there with both of them.  Every episode will give you goosebumps and leave you in suspense, a talented cast, and excellent writing all gone to waste.  If you missed this then do yourself a favor and go watch it now.
