The Last Airbender Trailer Is Pretty %$#*@!ing Badass

This teaser for M. Night Shyamalan’s live action version of the popular Nickelodeon cartoon was supposed to air until the Super Bowl this weekend, but it’s here now and it’s pretty badass.

Fun Fact: a short scene for this was filmed a few minutes away from my house at one of the few landmarks in our town, The Pagoda. I tried to sneak up and get some pics, but roads were blocked from about 2 miles away and there was no way in hell my unfit blogging ass was gonna’ walk 2 miles for a few pictures.

Los-

A friend of mine posted this to his Facebook and I lol’d, so I’m sharing it with you guys. I love Jack’s- I mean, Matthew Fox’s face on the last panel. I almost accidentally typed on the ‘Lost’ panel, but I didn’t.

Also, we’re talking about the season 6 premiere on the AwesomeBoards. Now would be a good time to sign up, log in, and geek out with some cool strangers on the internet. How do you know we’re cool? Because we’re strangers. On the internet. And we’d never lie to you. Or would we?

This is how REAL nerds party.

A few of my friends on the west coast had themselves a shindig for the Lost Season 6 premiere. They made up some Dharma Initiative labels and slapped ‘em on all the essential party goods: cola, tortilla chips, cheese salsa, guacamole, water, and even Tic Tacs!

And it was all topped off by this Dharma Initiative brownie cake thingamajig.

WTF, guys? Where’s the beer? Next time you make a trip to PA, we’ll have to party it up proper: Lost marathon while doing kegstands!

Happy Birthday! George A. Romero Turns 70!

The forefather of apocalyptic zombie horror, George A. Romero was born on February 4th in the year 1940 and today he celebrates his 70th birthday. He’s most famous for his series of zombie films: Night of the Living Dead, Day of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Land of the Dead, and Diary of the Dead. His 1973 film The Crazies (think Night of the Living Dead, only people are turning into psycho serial killers instead of zombies) has recently been remade and hits theaters on February 26th.

Happy birthday, George! You’ve made planet Earth, like, a gazillion times more awesome.

Daily Graffiti: Remember the Angry Beavers?

Whenever I look for something to feature on Daily Graffiti, I usually just browse places like Flickr or DeviantArt and type in something along the lines of “[insert geeky pop cultural reference here] graffiti” and hope something awesome pops up. It’s always a crapshoot and you’d be surprised to know how much awesome stuff there isn’t graffiti of, but I’ve just always assumed  I wasn’t looking hard enough or maybe no one uploaded the pics yet. Other times I’m surprised when I search for something completely random like Danger Mouse or, in this case, the Angry Beavers, and actually stumble across some pretty fresh results.

It’s because of this that I’m enacting an official Albotas.com Rule #34 of sorts:

If it exists there IS graffiti of it.

By the way, how badass was The Angry Beavers cartoon?

The Losers was an awesome comic. Now it looks like it's been turned into an awesome movie. Here's the awesome trailer.

The Losers was an awesome comic from DC’s Vertigo imprint which was loosely based on an old war comic of the same name from DC back in the 70’s. If you’ve never read Vertigo’s updated version, I highly recommend you head to your local comic shop immediately and seek out the back issues, or you can just pick up the trades from Amazon.

I won’t waste time explaining the plot since the trailer already does a fine job of that. Instead I’ll show you this bigger picture of a promo pic for The Losers all done up like one of the comic covers.

I kinda’ wonder why Aisha and Clay have traded spots in the promo, but I don’t think I mind one bit. Zoe Saldana’s curves look way better in the center than Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s would have. Mmmmm. Good Lord…

But you didn’t come for pictures and banter, did you? You probably just want to see the trailer. Well, here it is.

Scott Pilgrim Movie Finally Gets A Release Date

Mark those calendars, kiddies! Edgar Wright’s live action adaptation of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s indie comic sensation Scott Pilgrim vs The World hits theaters August 13th.

Now, I know I was skeptical at first, but then I started warming up to the idea. I have faith that Edgar Wright can pull this off — he did Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz for cryin’ out loud! And besides, even the movie winds up being only half as good as the comics, it’ll still be freaking amazing.

If you haven’t read any of the Scott Pilgrim books by now, I highly recommend you go take care of that ASAP. It’s about a 20-something slacker in a crappy indie band and he has to fight this girl’s seven evil exes before he can go out with her. Oh, and when he beats dudes, they turn into coins and he levels up. Its kind of brilliant.

Dharma Initiative Beer Labels: More Awesome Than Regular Beer Labels

There’s only a few Faradays left (see what I did there!?) until the Lost season 6 premier, so if you’re planning on throwing your own watching party, you should probably stock up on beer and replace the labels with these downloadable Dharma Initiative labels. Unless it’s Skinny Blonde Beer — in that case, just leave those labels on.

Behold! The Empire Strikes Back Generator!

Currently obsessed with this cool little Empire Strikes Back Generator. It randomly generates an image of your name based on the Topps “Empire Strikes Back” stickers from back in the day.

It’s a fun way to pass the time and make cool logos for your website, name, or just type out childish crude phrases like I did.

Does anybody remember the slice of gum that came with Topps cards back in the day? I could totally go for some of that right now.
