I can not wait until The Dark Knight Rises comes out. Batman Begins was amazing. The Dark Knight was completely insanely awesome. This new movie should be even better as Batman faces his ultimate foe, Bane.…

I use an old trick my eldest sister taught me to keep the clothes in my closet smelling fresh: open a box of soap and just leave it at the bottom of your closet.…

These funny pixelated movie posters were created by Colorado graphic designer Eric Palmer. While some may call them them 8-bit art, they kind of look like they wouldn’t be out of place on an a 16-bit system like the Sega Genesis or SNES.…

Everyone who has ever watched an episode of Star Trek or one of the Trek films has probably thought it would be cool to have a tricorder.…

If you’re a fan of the Shaun of the Dead, you’ve probably drooled over the pictures of the custom made LEGO set patterned after the movie that floated around the Web last year.…

I first heard of Manolo Blahnik and Manhattans from the hit show Sex and the City. In fact, one of the reasons why I’m so into shoes (but not so much into alcohol) is because of that show, which I love but which my bank account hates.…
