An Unlikely Crossover in the Fire Caves

Once in a while, something really stupid and makes no sense bubbles up in your mind and you need to get it out into meatspace. Here it is: a crossover between Call of Cthulhu RPG and Star Trek Deep Space Nine.   Just don’t ask me for Pah-wraith stats for Call of Cthulhu. I have it out of my system now and I am good.

Star Trek Hybrids

So, I drew some cross-species hybridization as Star Trek aliens are wont to do. For example, Spock is a Human-Vulcan hybrid and K’Ehleyr is a Human-Klingon hybrid. A Tholian-Vulcan hybrid! I only remembered the pointy eyebrows after I finished drawing. A Horta-Cardassian hybrid. No space beneath the silicon-based body for a Gul Macet-style mutton chops. And think of the amount of hairspray needed to keep that ‘do in shape. A Tribble-Andorian hybrid. How is this even- I- Never mind. Everyone go home. Nothing to see here.

Holy Crap! Star Wars DVD to Blu-Ray Comparisons!

IT’S AN OUTRAGE! Star Wars: The Complete Saga blu-ray set has been released and I have compiled a comparison of five screenshots between the DVD and its corresponding scene in the Blu-ray version. In each image, the DVD version is the top half and the Blu-ray the bottom half. Here follows a commentary on the above-mentioned screenshots. The Opening Crawl As you can see, the opening crawl in the DVD when viewed in Blu-ray looks so much worse. The blackness of space seems to have been greyed out and smudged in a shape that could be a mountain. Seriously? Someone thought a mountain would look good in space? Even the text font has been changed, perhaps to accommodate extra details about some “Purple Death”, which I believe refers to General Tagge’s underpants. The Tatooine Desert The picture quality is so bad after a transfer to 1080p that some of the […]

Star Wars Crossover

There’s a breach in the space-time continuum and strange, giant robotic entities fly through and bring their own war into the Galactic Republic! However, the creatures look somewhat familiar… eerily familiar. One faction allies itself with the Republic while another with the Separatists. With the sudden inclusion of powerful sapient giant transforming mechanical life-forms, the Clone Wars is taken to the next level!

365 Days of Stormtroopers

Thanks to the Official Star Wars Blog, I’ve come across the photo-adventures of a pair of hapless Imperial Stormtroopers on Flickr, TK-479 and TK-455, as they undergo a series of entertaining adventures. The photos are taken by Stéfan Le Dû, who will release one photo a day for a year. Some of the scenes are downright hilarious. Here is a selection: Above: This explains the anonymous messages Luke’s been receiving. It got so bad that he had to hurl his phone on the far side of Nirauan. Above: The Imperial fleet could use a few good carrier pigeons if the HoloNet craps out. Above: You can’t go on vacation without an astromech droid to navigate your camper. Above:  Do you need hats if you’re wearing friggin’ helmets? You do if you want to get the chicks on the beach. Above: He’d better get the hell out before a horse shows […]

There’s News, And Then There’s News

Meanwhile, elsewhere in the city… KUALA LUMPUR — Amid an excited Malaysian public, Proton today launched the first of three variants of its latest model, the MPV Exora.[[image:cheap_exora.jpg:Cheap car is cheap:right:0]] The ‘C’ variant (for Cheap) comes without the frills traditionally included by car companies, like engine, transmission, seats, doors, windows and steering wheel. (The other two variants, “Premium” and “Standard”, will be launched next month) Proton managing director Datuk Syed Zainal Abdin Tahir said that the MPV was designed for families which were conscious about doing things economically. “While the other two variants, with the usual package that includes items some see as ‘basic’ would be sold at around RM80,000, the ‘C’ variant is sold at below RM5,000. For more news like that visit Nose4news, a clever Malaysian news parody website. “Abominable Snowman seeks name change”? “Loss of Life main cause of death among males, females”? “Crime industry announces 400,000 job vacancies”?

Where Do These T-888 Infiltrators Go To Eat?

These different models of Tee-Triple Eight infiltrators below: they’re a different series of endoskeletons from the T-800 and the T-850 (model 101) from the Terminator movies.  [[image:t-888_01.jpg:Bunch of Metals:center:0]] I might have found the exact place where they all go to eat out. [[image:t-888_02.jpg::center:0]]  … which is right around the corner in Pandan Cahaya.
