Look Out Emo-Vamps, Here Comes The “DAYBREAKERS”!

Sultry, dreamy, hypnotic vampires are sooo last year.  Times, they are a changin’, and a door has opened for vampires to deal with serious issues that plague their lifestyle.

In the not to far off future, blood (that precious nectar of the Gods) has become a dwindling commodity.  It is now up to the Chief Vampyric Officer, Sam Neill, to find a way to save the now dominant species of Nosferatu.  Take a lookie-loo at the trailer:

Heavy Metal Monday: 6/29/09

I can barely type due to a major sunburn, so I’m going to make this short and to the point.  Here’s a video from KISS:

Pour Another One Out For Michael Jackson: 8/29/58 – 6/25/09

What in the hell is going on today?  Seriously.  First Farrah, now MJ?  I don’t normally need an excuse to drink on a Thursday, but if ever there was a great one it just kicked me in the face.  Here’s what Yahoo has to say:

Pour One Out For Farrah Fawcett: 2/2/47 – 6/25/09

Even though Farrah had been vigorously battling a rather unpleasant cancer, and it was known that this was inevitable, it doesn’t change the fact that it still sucks.  If you want the icky details about what cancer she had, just go to CNN and read ’till your eyes fall out.  I will be using my orbs to memorize every inch of this photo.

Thursday Throwbacks: 6/25/09

Superheroes live very trying lives.  Not only must they tackle the forces of evil at a moment’s notice, it is also expected of them to save us regular folk from the throws of mortal peril.  One important question needs to be asked here:  Can such people who run on highly hectic schedules co-exist during their down-time?  Better yet, is it possible for 3 such costumed crusaders to split food, rent, and utilities?  Let’s find out what would have happen if Spiderman, Ice Man, and Firestar shared an apartment.

Epic Tippage

This one goes out to all you hard working waiters/waitresses, bartenders, and barristas.  From Yahoo:

“Johnny Depp has previously said that money isn’t the key to happiness.  But during a visit to a Chicago restaurant, the star certainly brought joy to one unsuspecting waiter with a reported sizable tip.

Once the bill came around 2:30 AM — totaling up to a reported $4,400 — Depp made sure the man who waited on the group into the late hours was well compensated for his time, as Mohammaed A. Sekhani reportedly received a $4,000 tip from the star.”

If only all people were that awesome.

“Zombieland” Or “In Shape Larry Flynt VS Dead Dudes”

I like my tittle better.  It has more Zazz.

Heavy Metal Monday: 6/22/09

To cut off all you nay-sayers, The Donnas kick major ass.  I don’t care what anybody says, they rule.  I’ve seen them live twice, and both times they managed to blow my mind, while causing my pants to tighten in the crotch area simultaneously.  Even though my word should be more than enough, I have chosen a song off of Bitchin’, their latest album.  Shit, not only is 3/4 of the band smoking hot, but they even know how to properly name an album!

“Get The F*ck Out Of My Face”: A Bruce Campbell Q&A

Last weekend, I attended Monster-Mania Con in Connecticut, and a major mistake was made on my part.  Because I was more focused on autograph collecting, swag purchasing, and alcohol consuming, I missed the many celebrity Q&A sessions that were held throughout the convention; a decision that haunts me still.  All is not lost, however.  People who decided to get the most out of their weekend got video of the Bruce Campbell Q&A and plastered it up on YouTube.  Thank the Gods!   I now bring the laughs that I missed out on into your lives, but you must follow the jump first.

Thursday Throwbacks: 6/18/09

Monsters of all kinds simply rule.  It doesn’t matter if they be vampires, werewolves, or huge ass mummies.  They continue affect our lives, weather we realize it or not.  Don’t act like you’ve never sat around with yer buddies, asking the age old question, “Who’d win in a fight?”.  I’ve found a show about monsters beating the crap out of one an other, on a regular basis.  Now we can finally see just who the victor would be if The Mummy took on Dracula.  Enjoy Darkstalkers.

Crazy Crap: 6/17/09

When I think of Power Metal, three things come to mind:  over-the-top stage shows, dudes from romance novel covers, not to mention lots and lots of fast tapping/unnecessary sweep picking.  It’s enough to make me throw up in my mouth, swallow it, then exhale a breath of partially digested tacos.  Thanks to this video, Katy Perry will be the first vision in my head.  Awesome.

Scattered Remains, Splattered Brains: Monster-Mania Con ’09 In Review

“Dark gray clouds hovered on the horizon.  A crisp summer breeze wafted through the strawberry-blond locks set atop the warrior’s head, as he readied adventuring gear.  His mind went over the list of supplies that stumbled around in his booze soaked skull; a side effect from the night before.  All that was left was to meet up with his traveling companion, Wooster Of The Hill People, and the long trek could begin.  The warrior steeled his gaze at the road ahead of him.  It was time.  Monster-Mania Con had come.”

After months of preparation, I took off to Connecticut to spend the weekend at a horror convention.  Nothing in my wildest dreams could have prepared me for what the Gore Gods had in store for me.  My buddy Wooster and I continually bounced total baffoonery off one another, loud music rocked the air around us, while questions of what lay ahead of us were tossed around, and this was just the first day!

Christopher Lee Is Now Sir Christopher Lee

Gibbits and crows! The only LOTR cast member to actually read the books is now a knight.

Veteran actor Christopher Lee, who played the jewelry-craving schemer in Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy, was bestowed with a knighthood Saturday as part of the queen’s birthday honors list, recognized for his contributions to the dramatic arts.

All told, the 87-year-old thespian has amassed more than 250 film and television credits. (Source)

Heavy Metal Monday: 6/15/09

Hungover, beaten down, and sore from the ends of my hair to very tips of my toes.  I have returned from the mightiest weekend in history, swelling with accomplishment and beer gas.  Many wild adventures took place down in Connecticut, but the only way to capture the vibe is through the magic of song.  To give you a small taste of what Monster – Mania Con felt like, I’m going to pound yer face into powder with some EXODUS.

First Clip From Battlestar Galactica: The Plan

Hello, it’s been awhile. You look great…Head over to io9 and check out the first clip from Battlestar Galactica: The Plan airing this fall on whatever the fuck that channel is called now. It features that old wanker Cavil who had probably the best/funniest death in all of BSG. Present is also Ellen Tigh looking not so great.

BSG: The Plan party at Casa de Mars.

Kung Fu THIS, Bitch! \m/

“IT’S PARTY TIME!”

Today starts Monster – Mania Con.  I will be attending this fantastic event all weekend.  Party till you fucking die!!! \m/

Thursday Throwbacks: 6/11/09

Tomorrow afternoon, I will be traveling to the far away land of Connecticut for a weekend of horror movie mayhem.  The Monster-Mania Horror convention will be three days of meeting celebs, drinking booze, and complete jackassery.  In honor of this auspicious occasion, I have chosen a cartoon that has a fairly simple story, yet shares the same motif as the adventure that lays in store for me.  Huge…Fuck…Monsters.  Need I say more?  Let’s smash stuff, and break buildings, with the INHUMANOIDS:

Crazy Crap: 6/11/09

If the LEGO company produced a FUTURAMA play set, I was totally unaware.  This is breathtaking.  Whom ever constructed this marvelous piece seriously knew their shit.  There’s a suicide booth, a fantastic SLURM advertisement, and Planet Express Ship is simply stunning.  To the sir or madame that is responsible for bringing this work of beauty to life, we at RBM salute you.  \mm/ (this is just too much metal for one hand).  Follow the jump for a side boob-esque look at this.

FUTURAMA: It’s Highly Addictive!

“Space.  It seems to go on and on forever.  But then you get to the end and a gorilla starts throwing barrels at you.”  Philip J. Fry spoke these words on March 28th, 1999, setting the tone for one of the best television shows to ever have been spawned from the mind of Matt Groening.  FUTURAMA.
