Lost in Translation (Big SPOILERS)

Mon ,24/05/2010
Ah...Fresh meat for the slaughterhouse!

Ah...Fresh meat for the slaughterhouse!

I’ve been accused of deliberately shifting to an unpopular position just because I want to be different from other people.  To my knowledge, I’ve never done such a thing consciously.  Now that THAT’S out of the way, I thought I’d write a little review of the Lost series finale from last night, and if you haven’t guessed from my first sentence that what I have to say might piss you off, you’re even dumber than I look.  So, I tell you what…I like your patronage and the fact that you come to this site.  I’ll try not to be as inflammatory as I want to, and you just sit there, drink a Dharma beer, and relax.  I’m pretty certain that ending was meant to inspire at least some vitriol.   Anyways, find out what I had to say about the Lost closing after the jump.

Postmodern Metahumans: The Mythbusters Edition

Fri ,09/04/2010
Look at them...with their science and their beady eyes.  Villainous, I tells ya!

Look at them...with their science and their beady eyes. Villainous, I tells ya!

You don’t have to look around here very long to understand that I’m a huge Mythbusters fan.  Indeed, besides my little love note to Malcolm McDowell, the two next highest attention gathering articles I’ve written here have been Chuck Norris vs Grant Imahara and some rules for a Mythbusters drinking game.  This being self declared Superhero month, however, I’ve decided that today, I’m going to inject some of my favorite comics characters into one of my favorite shows.  I ran into a problem however.  Find out what it was after the jump.

M. Night Shyamalan, You’re On Notice

Thu ,01/04/2010
I can't be the only one that wants to push him in that pool.

I can't be the only one that wants to push him in that pool.

Mr. Shyamalan…we have to talk.  As you might have guessed, we’re going to be talking about your next movie, The Last Airbender.  By all indications, this looks to be a decent movie, but I’m going to need more than that from you this time.  I need you, like Maverick in Top Gun, to pull up before you hit the hard deck.  And no buzzing the tower, either.  More on this after the jump.

Two Time Sexiest Man Alive George Clooney

Tue ,16/02/2010
From George's yearbook:  "Be good this summer!  Don't rob any casinos!"

From George's yearbook: "Be good this summer! Don't rob any casinos!"

 It doesn’t do to forget where one comes from, and as you can clearly see from this photo I found over at FILM.com, George Clooney still remembers from whence he came.  I would still bet, however, that he was pulling tail with this look back in the day.  Meanwhile, I couldn’t get kissed in high school, let alone…uh…anything else, and I know I looked better than this.   I mean, come on…he looks like the nerd the other nerds used to beat up!  Whatever.  He managed to pull his shit together and make a global community of woman fawn over him.  Perhaps, one day, I can do the same!  Let’s see what I can do!

Justice League Unlimited Casting Call!

Wed ,03/02/2010

jluIt’s still one of my favorite cartoons!  Justice League Unlimited seems, sometimes to make better fiction with the DC Universe’s characters than DC does.  Actually, it doesn’t seem that way…it is that way!  So, let’s have a look at some of the characters and who I would cast in some of the bigger roles.  Granted, I’m not going to cast them all, because that roster is huge!  I’m going for some of the key people.  So, JLU Casting Call after the jump!

Jewel Staite Bomb!

You HAVE to be really into your chicken wings not to notice that fine piece of actress at the next table.

You HAVE to be really into your chicken wings not to notice that fine piece of actress at the next table.

Okay, it’s not a bomb bomb, or even a really bad movie, but a Jewel Staite photo bomb!  As you can see, Jewel Staite….Mmmmm…Jewel Staite is enjoying her holiday vacation in what appears to be Hawaii.  On Twitter the other day, she posted this picture what might have been herself, except for the man in the background who, according to Jewel, really, really liked his chicken wings.  So, for a hot picture of Jewel Staite, for a man who loves his chicken small and somewhat hard to eat, and for holidaying in temperate climes, here’s this picture.  Enjoy!

What If Stunt Casting: Remo Williams

Wed ,06/01/2010

The adventure begins.  In my pants!

One of my favorite films from the 80s, Remo Williams:  The Adventure Begins is now in my hot little hands, though it did take some tracking down.  The soundtrack…well, that’s another unfindable matter altogether.  ThatCostumeGirl and I were watching Remo on New Year’s Eve (Rock on!!!  We’re such party-going…uh…people.  Sigh.)  And since we’d both been drinking , we started discussing who we’d cast in a Remo Williams movie if it were made today.  Indeed, since there is a reboot in the works, now would seem to be the time to discuss such things.  Now, I realize that perhaps most couples don’t sit around doing this when they get their drink on, but it’s a common occurence around here.   The drinking for me, and the recasting discussions for her.  Anyways, see who we picked after the jump.

Hot Nerd Crush: Amber Benson and Zachary Levi

Mon ,04/01/2010
Baby, I will hold still for whatever spell you want to CAST!  Damn!

Baby, I will hold still for whatever spell you want to CAST! Damn!

Our first combined Hot Nerd Crush finds us paying homage to one of the most talented ladies to ever grace the Hot Nerd Crush.  And the guy who plays Chuck.  In deference to Mr. Levi, this is the beginning of how we around here at ManWithPez are starting to shorten things a bit.  So hold on and give it a look.  The first combined Hot Nerd Crush starts after the jump.

Hot Nerd Mancrush #10: Ryan Reynolds

Thu ,17/12/2009
It's not fair, there are people who look like him, and I look like me.  Sigh.

It's not fair, there are people who look like him, and I look like me. Sigh.

I would call him America’s favorite smartass, except he’s not American.  He’s a filthy Canadian.  Oh well, at least there’s some type of flaw there!  And, Canada, before you come down here to slit my throat with an ice skate or something, just know this.  I’m not prejudiced of all Canadians.  Just the French ones.  Dirty French-Canadians….you’re just as bad as the real thing, you know!  Anyways, we’ll take a good hard look at Ryan Reynolds’s hard body…of work, you perverts!  Gawd!  Ryan Reynolds after the jump.

Hot Nerd Crush #10: Kari Byron

Mon ,14/12/2009
I never wanted to be a photographer so bad in my life!

I never wanted to be a photographer so bad in my life!

We’re going to do a short one (piece, not woman) and I decided to go with not only a Hot Nerd Crush, but a hot nerd in her own right.  I can only list one thing in Ms. Byron’s credit list, but it’s a huge, huge thing.  When you’re not only a co-host on Mythbusters, but a member of the build team, you’ll always have a place over on ManWithPez.  Hell, Grant Imahara already took on Chuck Norris over here, so let’s have a look at Kari after the jump.
