Video Monday: Cute Attack

Combining this week’s quota of Weird Al and Lego content in one amazing package: The Saga Begins – in Lego.

Why you shouldn’t leave laser weapons laying around the house. (Warning: baby.)

There endth this week’s Star Wars content.

Kenya is a flash animation that everyone on the internet should have seen by now. (But hey, if folks keep linking ‘Store Wars,’ there’s gotta be a couple folks out there who haven’t seen this yet, either.) It’s by the same folks who did that internet classic, Badger Badger Badger. And yes, they both repeat.

Pug bowling! A touching tale of revenge so adorable it ought to be illegal.

And to take us on home, a kitten on a keyboard.

From the Blogside

Harry Potter is a fraud! This isn’t a blog, but it’s certainly burning through the fandom in a way I find quite amusing. Please note it was originally published in 2002.

Icarusancalion has excellent advice for fandom security. Hiding your tie-in novels in the underwear drawer is not, surprisingly, one of them.

Oboe-Wan ponders hats and Ewoks. Sadly, not hats of Ewoks. (Yes, it’s old-school CJ reference day!)

On the VIP front, Helen Keier on how she got the gig, Sterling Hershey explains what a freelance game designer does and Abel G. Peña discusses the origins of Darth Millennial. Oh, and Jeremy Bulloch has shown up.

Filk Friday

This week’s featured filk takes us back to the excitement leading up to the release of Episode I. Jeff Suess’ Bare Naked Ladies parody takes us One Week before the release of the movie, and the hype and celebration lives on. You can find more of Jeff’s work here.

And continuing with news on Weird Al’s recently released album, the quick favorite outside of the first single “White and Nerdy” is apparently his Green Day parody called “Canadian Idiot.” Fans have already started on the homemade videos, like this remix of the Robot Chicken Voltron dance off.
