Star Wars: Episode IComics

  • Topless Robot takes a look at the The 10 Least Terrifying Justice League Villains.

Film

  • TC Candler makes a good start rounding up The 100 Greatest Movie Posters, but honestly, some of these films are only list because the quality of the film, not the art of the poster.
  • Ten Horror Sequels and Remakes that Top the Originals, beginning with The Blob and climaxing with the 1978 classic, Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
  • Warner Brothers lost their lawsuit, the film Hari Puttar, about a ten-year-old Indian boy who moves to England will move forward.

Internet

  • I wouldn’t normally mention this Ten Top Weapons from Sci-Fi, but it cracks me up that a flamethrower wins out over the Green Lanterns ring and a 44 Magnum makes the list but the light saber doesn’t.
  • The Top Fifty Hottest Sci-Fi Girls for you to gawk at.

Literature

  • Science fiction doesn’t have to be Goomy, but when was the last time happy sci-fi was categorized as a classic? Hell, when was the last time you came across happy science fiction period?
  • When Books Could Change Your Life is a really nice essay on Children’s literature. From the article: “if I ever end up holed up in my parents’ farmhouse holding off the bulldozers with a machine gun while listening to Beethoven’s late quartets, it’ll be because of the story “And the Moon Be Still as Bright” from Ray Bradbury’s The Martian Chronicles.”

Video Games

  • GameDaily takes a look at The Top 10 Ugliest Game Heroes.
  • If I had a nickel for every hour I spent playing these Top Ten Star Wars Games… who am I kidding? I would probably spend it on the next Star Wars game to come out.

Writing

  • As if you didn’t already think Robert Heinlein was a genius, it turns out the man had an amazing system for responding to all of his fan mail, too.
