BEAMED UP: Star Trek’s Scotty Reaches Outerspace Aboard First Private Company Ship To Visit Space Station

FILED IN Entertainment No Comments

Seen here loving the hell out of his new home in space, the ashes of Star Trek’s iconic engineer Scotty (James Doohan) were launched into space this morning aboard the SpaceX Dragon — the first private company spaceship scheduled to dock with the Space Station and launched using the same rocket they wouldn’t let me sit on top of like a rodeo bull despite the promise of free publicity and “a photo op so f***ing rad it’ll even give robots boners.”

Hit the jump for a video of the launch and Evil Ares’ shoutout.

Bringing The Sadness: 2012 Disney Star Wars Dance-Off

FILED IN Entertainment No Comments

R2-D2: he wants to die so hard right now.

Well folks, it’s that time: the 2012 Star Wars Weekends dance-off routines debuted Friday at the Disney parks, and let me tell you: plenty of sadness/rage to be had. A brief rundown of what to expect from the videos after the jump (WARNING: I chewed up a couch cushion like a bad dog just trying to watch them):

Momma Said Knock You Out – LL Cool J

Sexy and I Know It – LMFAO
Smooth Criminal – Alien Ant Farm / Michael Jackson
The Way I Are by Timbaland featuring Keri Hilson
Glad You Came – The Wanted
Till The World Ends – Britney Spears
Moves Like Jagger - Maroon 5
International Love – Pitbull
Rolling in the Deep – Adele
This is What Rock and Roll Looks Like – Porcelain Black
Tonight – Enrique Iglesias
Starships – Nicki Minaj
Party Rock Anthem – LMFAO
We Are Young – FUN
Good Feeling – Flo Rida
Battle Without Honor or Humanity – Tomoyasu Hotei

That’s right — because one LMFLOL song just wasn’t enough they had to include TWO. “Such a great album” I imagine the park executives said at the song-selection meeting before bursting into laughter and lighting their cigars with $1,000 bills.

Hit the jump for some individual songs, followed by the full 20-minute performance. Normally I’d say stick it to the man for 20-minutes and watch the entire thing at work, but, I dunno, maybe if you’re feeling masochistic.

Lil Plastic Pews: Holographic LEGO Star Wars Toy Display

FILED IN Entertainment No Comments

This is a LEGO Star Wars toy display with some holographic video effects. Do they have them at Toys R Us? No clue, I got banned from the nearest one for bicycle jousting in the store. Dammit, I was gonna buy something! No I wasn’t. I was gonna peg my friend with a dodgeball then run and hide in a big pile of stuffed animals. I love how at the end of the holographic battle it includes the warning, “THE ANIMATION IN THIS VIDEO IS FOR ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES ONLY. THE MODELS DO NOT ACTUALLY POSSESS ANY OF THE ANIMATED FUNCTIONALITIES.” Because it would suck finishing your new LEGO Star Wars set if you hadn’t read that. *smashes AT-AT* WHY WEREN’T YOU SHOOTING LASERS?

Hit the jump for the video.
