Dr. Seuss Does Star Wars


Dear Jennifer,

A wonderful web artist, Adam Watson, has decided to see if he could sketch Dr. Seuss' version of Star Wars. It is a fantastic collection of little drawings. The one of Yoda rhyming about being 900 years old would make for a great birthday card.

Anything Can Be a Musical


Dear Jennifer,

Singer/Songwriters Jon and Al have a website that collects all of their amazing musical parodies of action and thriller classics like "Silence of the Lambs" and "Predator." Didn't realize that Predator would make an awesome musical? Prepare to be stunned.

TGI Duelists

Dear Jennifer,

There can never be too much referencing or parodies of The Princess Bride. Someone has gone to the great trouble of replacing the swords in the cliff top duel with, well, what Anakin would call "laser swords." Enjoy!

I'm finished!

Dear Jennifer,

This is a video of the 16-bit game of "There Will Be Blood" that Leslie emailed me. Watching Daniel Day Lewis' rampage in fast motion is probably better than ever playing the game myself. Enjoy!

Disturbingly postable

Dear Jennifer,

Do you like Winnie the Pooh? Do you like Xenomorphs? How about a combination of the two, with a little Predator cameo to boot?

This storybook crossover is just one of many disturbingly entertaining cartoons on the Godxillary site. (Yes, this picture is of Tigger operating a powerloader)

Can one ever be too old for Sesame Street?



Dear Meredith:

Jake Gyllenhaal + Sesame Street = AWESOME.

Stay away from my chimney

Dear Jennifer,

I'm sure we've discussed the hilarious existence of "Hunky Santa" at the Beverly Center. But there is something far more important to dish about. And that is this awesome website that collects the scariest Santas on celluloid and junk drive. Check it out.

Such style!


Dear Meredith:

There are way too many "blogs" based on reader-submitted pictures, but I have to say, I sort of enjoy this one.

My Parents Were Awesome

Meep meep!


Dear Meredith:

Okay, I thought that the Muppets doing "Bohemian Rhapsody" was pretty awesome, but it might be out-awesomed by Beaker performing "Ode to Joy."

The unfortunate thing is that this song gets terribly stuck in your head.


Dear Meredith:

The Muppets do "Bohemian Rhapsody". Words can't do it justice.

Watch Neo go!



Dear Meredith:

I mean, sometimes some people have just too much time on their hands - but then again, without them, who would recreate the bullet time dodge scene from The Matrix?

Bart-crastination

Dear Jennifer,

I don't recall if you are a SIMPSONS fan or not, but every episode always had a very entertaining bit with Bart writing a reference to something terrible he did on a chalkboard at school for punishment. Someone compiled the list!

If the internet went down...


Cracked.com has a hilarious collection of photos for a recent contest they did asking for images to show what the world would be like if the Internet suddenly went away.

The number one winner is awesome.

Jim Henson continues to save the world


Not only did he raise us, he's also bringing peace in the Middle East. This is a CNN article about new Sesame Street shows that are trying to teach children nonviolence, tolerance, and friendship. Get 'em when they're young, I say!

REACHING THE NEXT GENERATION

Why didn't I know about this before?

Apparently, the TMNT movies were so popular (no surprise there!) that Barbara Walters did an interview with the Turtles when the second film came out. Pretty much makes my childhood complete.

I think I miss the cat

Dear Jennifer,

There is a website devoted to repurposing Garfield comic strips without Garfield in them. It's a bizarre combination of funny and...well...psychotic.

I always knew there was something wrong with Jon.

Franken-bears.



Dear Meredith:

In case you're feeling a bit bored at the office today, and you have some gummi bears, check out this website. I have to say, I never got more complex than switching heads.

And that's what squashing a goombah looks like.



Dear Meredith:

I know how you love video games. You'll just love this flickr gallery depicting video game deaths.

Dating is an ugly game.


Dear Meredith:

Is love indeed a battlefield? At the very least, it's sometimes a series of brutal and unfortunate encounters with others.
