Ryan Reynolds IS Green Lantern

As has been reported everywhere, Ryan Reynolds has been cast as Green Lantern in the upcoming flick. While it's a little...odd...that the dude who played Deadpool is now going to be playing GL, I think this is a pretty good choice. He definitely looks the part; my only hope is that Reynolds dampens his trademark wise-ass-ness, as that's not what Hal is really like.

Top 5 Games To Watch Other People Play

In the interest of stirring things up, what games are the most fun to watch other people play?

Back in the day, nothing frustrated me more then watching other people play videogames. I thought such strong feelings would subside with age but alas, no. Now I'm frustrated watching other people play pool, eat, fill out forms, wait in line, type, and yet I actually can sit on a couch now and watch someone else play COD4 or Little Big Planet for about an hour (until I reign blows upon them, take the controller, and finish the game with 100% superhuman accuracy with which they have never seen).

And nowadays there's a whole line of programs totally dedicated to streaming videogames live. Livestream is one. Who knew? What a majestic time to be alive. Here's my top 5 list at the moment. Fight me on it. I dare you.

1. COD4 - Any multiplayer for that matter. Even Mariokart. But the more grenades and childish name-calling, the better.

2. Street Fighter 2 - Obvious. Should this be #1?

3. River Raid - Watching other people play this infuriates me, but in the way old people complain about kids with facial piercings. They don't like it but without them they'd have nothing to complain about.


4. Wii Sports


5. Zelda - Ocarina of Time - Wonder! Merriment! Flutes!

What say you, Internet? Have you a voice?

Hands Across The Water, Heads Across the Sky

While perusing YouTube for Paul McCartney and Beatles clips some time ago, I discovered a dude who goes by the name of PENNYWHO: a Japanese musician who can seemingly play everything Paul and Beatles related. You can tell from his charming performances -- which usually feature one or more of his kids scampering around or singing along -- that he really loves this music. Here's his rendition of the great "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey" from the colossal Ram album:
